The Type Of Guy You Always Attract, Based On Your Zodiac Sign

Have you found that no matter how much you try, you seem to attract the same type of guy repeatedly? Perhaps you feel that you constantly seem to date guys with a lot of baggage, so you make a conscious effort to date someone who seems to have his sh*t together, but as you get to know him you realize that, on the surface, he may be at the top of his game but underneath he’s dealing with all kinds of past drama and hurt.

The circumstances may be unique for each individual but the characteristics of each guy are scarily similar. You swear you’ll break the pattern and date up or date differently, but somehow it always turns out to be the same type of guy. Is it you or something that your subconscious is trying to tell you?

What is it about this type that is drawing you to them? Is there some cosmic lesson you’re supposed to learn? And if so, haven’t you learned by now? Isn’t it time for a different sort of guy? What is it about you that attracts the same kind of guy?

If all you seem to date are hot guys but what you really want is a guy who is both smart and sexy, what do you do to change who you attract? You could be more responsive to a hot guy because that’s the kind of guy you’re used to, and you know how to handle them and they can sense it, but maybe super-intelligent guys intimidate you a little?

The thing about dating is that it allows you to get to know a variety of people so you can discover what it is that you’re looking for in a partner. You don’t want to limit your options, you want to expand them.

Astrology can help you figure out which type of guy you attract, based on your zodiac sign. This insight can help you see the pattern and possibly learn how to break it or how to embrace it.
