What Makes Him Happy, By Zodiac Sign
Happy partners mean a happy love.
The simplest things like making your man smile after he’s had a rough day are all it takes to make your heart all giddy.
Ladies and gentlemen, it can take a toll on you knowing your man is upset about something, whether it is a work or personal situation. It’s hard knowing that he’s upset and there’s not much you can do to fix it.
Just doing one simple thing a day can make him smile or lift their spirits. Maybe it’s a hug, some comforting words, or just your presence that will lighten his day and vice versa.
But sometimes it’s hard to read your significant other’s mind and you don’t really know what he wants, especially if you’re just starting a relationship with him. There’s a lot of trial and error before you really understand what gets his eyes twinkling.
Happiness can be a fleeting emotion and difficult to obtain if you’re stuck in a down-spiraling rabbit hole. When your partner feels sad, you’ll feel the repercussions too. Even if one of you guys aren’t feeling happy that day, it can lead to arguments and petty stand-offs. It’s important to at least try and avoid what ticks the other person off. Instead, focus on doing things that make him, and you, happy.
Using astrology to understand at least the baselines of what will make your man laugh in glee doesn’t hurt. If anything, it’ll strengthen your relationship because he’ll appreciate you for going above and beyond to make him happy. Remember, happy partners mean a happy love.
Here is what makes each zodiac sign jump up for joy or at least crack a smile:
1. ARIES (March 21 — April 19)
Challenge your Aries man to his favorite sport. He’ll appreciate you for spending time with him doing his favorite thing. Allow him to get his mind off of a work or personal issue that is bothering him as he focuses on winning a game of basketball or tennis.
2. TAURUS (April 20 — May 20)
Take a walk with your Taurus man through a garden. The Taurus sign is known for his love of the arts, which includes reading, painting, and gardening. However, a Taurus can be quite lethargic by nature, especially if he had an exhausting day. Settle for walking through a garden and admiring the different species of flowers, which will help ease his mind.
3. GEMINI (May 21 — June 20)
Take him to a trendy, new cafe downtown. It doesn’t take much to make a Gemini man happy, especially if you know how to push the right buttons.

His heart will certainly be full of happiness by the end of the day.
