How He Communicates His Feelings, According To His Zodiac Sign
He's got the FEELS.
It’s been a long perpetuated myth that men don’t have feelings. While sometimes it seems that way, the truth is that men express their feelings in different ways that may not be familiar to some women.
I’m sure you’ve experienced a relationship where you and your partner did not communicate the same way. You might have communicated strictly by using words while he used body language to express how he felt.
Neither way of communicating is wrong, necessarily, but it is good to know that everyone is different and will share their feelings in ways that may be foreign to you.
Watch the video below for advice on how to get him to open up to you:
If you tend to ball your eyes out when you talk about happy feelings, he may get confused and think you're just upset about something. Or he may not even respond to your tears and shut down.
But lucky for us, astrology believers, we have a guide that can predict how male zodiac signs express their feelings, how he will react to emotions, and how he will express and communicate his feelings in return.
The stars can be helpful for those who are curious about how their man will eventually say “I like you” and “I love you.” And it’s not BAD to be curious. It’s actually safe to be curious. If you know your deal breaker in a relationship is a guy who cries too much for your liking, then you’ll know Cancer may not be your cup of tea.
Of course, you should NEVER base your relationship decisions strictly on what your horoscope says because that could be heartbreaking. But just knowing in advance or even validating how he communicates his feelings can be beneficial to the relationship.
I know, I know it seems less romantic to know beforehand how he will open up. But what if he gets down on one knee on the second date? Hey, it could happen! I’m just trying to prepare you for the worst AND the best.
The moment you have been waiting for has finally come. Read on to find out how male zodiac signs express their feelings.
ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
Your Aries man has no patience when it comes to spilling his heart and soul to you. So if in the first week of dating, you find him being fidgety and acting a little “off,” he probably wants to open up and share just how he is feeling at this stage of the relationship.
Don’t worry, it won’t be any "I love you's" or anything serious like that. But if you freak out at the slightest bit of mushy feelings, he will back off and wait for YOU to say something. Aries might be a confident sign but when you hurt his heart, he can feel that pain for a while.

TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)
When your Taurus wants to get serious and talk about his feelings, he’ll get touchy. More touchy than usual. He’ll probably pull you in and get closer than ever before. He is devoted to his girl and wants to make her feel like she is the only person in the world. Wow, this feels like a One Direction music video for sure.
But don’t worry about it being “the wrong time.” A Taurus is patient enough to wait for the perfect moment when no one is distracted by other things.

GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
Your Gemini will probably sneak a joke in between opening up about his feelings for you. But you are probably used to it by now since he's been cracking jokes since the day you met. To be honest, talking about his feelings is hard for him. He gets really nervous and thinks he will say the wrong thing at the wrong time.
So when he is fumbling over his words, just know he loves you, he just doesn’t know how to say that romantically. He just needs some time to say what he wants.

CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
A Cancer dude will probably think of something super magical and special to express his true feelings. Don’t underestimate his imagination because next thing you know you’ll be in a Christmas light-covered gazebo like a fairytale and you’ll be completely speechless. Think of the last scene of the first Twilight. Yeah, he’s romantic AF.
But this isn’t a facade. He is so in touch with his emotions that any cheesy romantic gesture is the real deal.

LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
Your Libra guy will weigh his options before he plunges headfirst into explaining how he feels. (See what I did there? Because Libra’s symbol is the scale? It’s funny, I promise.) Before he sets up a romantic date he will write out pros and cons of telling you his feelings, because he likes to see both sides before he makes a BIG mistake.
And this is kind of a big deal for him because does not like to be alone. And if he can determine what’s best for the relationship right now, he can dodge the possible heartbreak. It’s just how his mind works.

SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)
Scorpio is the kind of guy who will walk into a room all suave and cool when, in reality, he just really wants to know if you like him. This might seem all romantic, but it actually puts a lot of pressure on him to get the answers that he needs.
You’ll know he’s about to lay it all on the line when he saunters on up and passionately kisses you. You won’t find him fidgeting or sweating bullets. His way of speaking his feelings is by being brave and just spitting it out.
He wants to get right to the point, lay out all the facts, and get to the making out part. Sounds like my kinda man, am I right, ladies?

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
Sagittarius will probably insist that you two take a sunset hike in the mountains. And while he’s all hyped up on endorphins from the hike, it may take him a little while to calm down and get to opening up.
But don’t worry, he’ll eventually get to it because he is all about achieving goals. When he knows what he wants, he isn't afraid to go for it. And right now, he wants the two of you to take it to the next level. Woah, this sounds serious. Good luck to the both of you!

CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)
When a Capricorn wants to talk about his feelings, it may be more serious than other relationships you’ve had in the past. The conversation will be reminiscent of you parents breaking the news that your beloved dog Spot passed away (except not as sad... hopefully). He’ll hold your hand and everything, though, so that's something to look forward to.
But even though he is extremely serious about the subject of love, he will also be extremely romantic. Not too romantic though, as he is the master of self-control, after all. Don’t expect tears or anything because it just won’t happen.

AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)
Aquarius deeply struggles with expressing his emotions. Instead of being sappy and romantic, he’ll approach communicating his feelings scientifically and logically.
Don’t expect him to go off track in the conversation, either. He has researched the best things to say and has basically memorized the script so he needs complete concentration. The conversation may be more mechanical than you’d dreamt of, but at least he’s sharing his feelings, right?

PISCES (February 19 - March 20)
Pisces will deliver the cutest “I love you” known to man. He’ll whip out his guitar and start singing an original song written just for you. Not only will his artistic talents shine through, but he will also be the most vulnerable you’ve ever seen him. He’s really good at achieving deeply emotional relationships and you’ll really feel the love for years to come.
