The Type Of Woman He Needs, According To His Zodiac Sign

Wouldn't it be great to know exactly the best type of person for you? Someone who can appreciate your flaws, make you a better person, and add incredible joy to your life?

Sometimes parents, friends, the clergy, and even matchmakers think they know better than you who would be the best for you. Heck, they may even try to set you up with random people your age. In cultures with arranged marriages, you may not have a say in who is determined to be a good fit for you. It's lucky that most of us have a say in who we're paired with.

Some people may have qualities that mesh well with the characteristics you do, and others may have traits that challenge you to grow as a person. It can be difficult to know who is really a good match and it can take years to find out if someone really is your soulmate.

There are potential significant others who look great on paper but the chemistry just isn't there. It can be very disappointing when you're dating someone and you know that ultimately you're not a good fit for whatever reason. Maybe you are high energy and their energy is low, or perhaps you don't share the same values.

Sometimes there are matches that just end up being toxic for both parties. They should have worked, but for some reason they just didn't.

If ultimately we're going to be with someone for the rest of our lives, we need to make sure that we'll build them up, not destroy them, and that we'll encourage their growth as well as our own.

Astrology can help you determine if you're the right kind of woman for that guy you have your heart set on. Find out what type of woman he needs the most, according to his zodiac sign.
