Are you lucky enough to be dating a Libra? This zodiac is so rarely single, so count your lucky stars that they happened to cross your path. Libra is known as the ‘love sign’ of the zodiac, as they are ruled by Venus, the planet of romance. Expect your Libra to sweep you off your feet and make you feel like you’re the only one in the whole world. This is a sign that knows how to pull out all the stops, and their charm, magnetism and flirtatiousness are second to none.
Are there any downsides to dating a Libra? Certainly. You’ll have to get used to everyone wanting to be with them, so hopefully you’re not the jealous type. Your Libra is also a bit of a flirt, but that doesn’t mean you have to feel threatened. Instead, be proud of the person who is by your side and who has chosen you from the many options they often have available to them.
Here’s what else you can expect when dating a Libra
Dating a Libra
The truth is that once you get used to the romantic nature of the Libra, you will struggle to be with someone who is less demonstrative. Libra people are really in love with you: they always know the best restaurants, the best places and have the most beautiful gifts. In short, they will catch you off guard, so you better be prepared! They are also the types who are usually on time and are always willing to compromise and find a middle ground when it comes to where to go and what to do. Not to mention that they are also usually very creative and tend to come up with great things to do with you. Libra is a sign that loves to share experiences with that special someone, so you can count on them to always include you in whatever they’re doing.
Sometimes your Libra sweetheart can be so indecisive that they leave it up to you to make choices, which can be annoying, but that’s only because they really, really want to please you. This is a sign that likes to make its partner happy, so just go with it.
Communicating with a Libra
Libra is an air sign and like all air signs, they are brilliant at communication. They have a diplomatic and sharp mind, excel in debates and often play devil’s advocate. This doesn’t mean they aren’t on your team. What it does mean, however, is that they will involve you in discussions that you may not always be comfortable with. They love to talk and communicate, and this often serves as a precursor to physical chemistry for Libra. They need to be with someone who is on their mental level and can keep up with them intellectually – you have been warned!
You can also always trust that your Libra is fair in his judgment. This way they are always neutral and can always look at something very objectively. You can always bring your problems to your Libra, and they will do their best to see all sides of the story.
How a Libra shows their love
Libra has many ways in which they show love. We could even say that they use all love languages, and not just one of them. Sometimes they are the most affectionate sign imaginable, with lots of physical touch. Other times they shower you with gifts. But most of all, they love to express their love and affection with words. Beautiful texts, letters and words are all part of dating a beautiful Libra. They will often tell you how they feel about you.
Libras also have a tendency to flirt with you, charm you, and wrap you around your finger so tightly that you usually gasp. They love to woo you and make you feel adored by giving you lots of attention and flattering you day and night. Enjoy every minute!
What turns a Libra off
Libra is a very refined sign. Dating someone who doesn’t have good taste can sometimes be a turn-off for him or her; someone who is rude, loud, rude, or unkempt is a Libra’s worst nightmare. They want to be with someone who takes good care of themselves and appreciates things like art, music and beauty. Looking and smelling good are top priorities for Libra – they’re just not into the animalistic, primal thing that many other signs are so fond of.
Libras also value harmony, balance and peace. If you happen to be someone who is quite confrontational, then that will be a huge turn-off for your Libra sweetheart. They absolutely hate arguments, which sometimes means certain things go unnoticed or swept under the rug. So a little pushing is needed, but not so much that you end up pushing your Libra away.
Strengths of Libra
Libras have so many strengths, the most important of which is the ability to negotiate and compromise. This is a sign that really wants everyone to win, and your interests to come first. Pleasing you and therefore being loved is at the top of their list, which makes them an excellent, easy partner to live with when it comes to everyday life. They are also extremely adept with words and should never make you feel like you are being attacked or pushed. As such, you can feel very safe with them. Libras are also very sociable and charming, which makes them fit into any situation you put them in. Meeting with the parents? No problem. Want to connect with your friends? Comfortable. You will be very proud that you can call your Libra all your own, because you integrate him smoothly into your life, and vice versa. This is a sign that naturally knows how to ‘do’ relationships.
Weaknesses of Libra
Unfortunately, no sign is perfect, especially not Libra. Their charm and flirtatiousness can easily be seen as superficial or even superficial. Some Libras are definitely quite superficial and appreciate surface-level connections. Going deep emotionally can be extremely uncomfortable for Libra. As much as they love relationships, true intimacy can actually be very uncomfortable for the typical Libra – unless they have plenty of Water energy elsewhere in their astrology charts. As already mentioned, this is also a sign that often avoids confrontation and conflict at all costs. This means that sometimes you may feel like they are being completely unfair or not being ‘real’ with you, and in some cases this is probably the absolute truth. They are so afraid of displeasing you and getting into a fight that very often your Libra will say anything to keep the peace. This is one of their biggest weaknesses that needs to be addressed if they want a healthy and happy relationship that will last. You can be the one to gently—without too much force—guide them to solve problems instead of avoiding them.
Most compatible signs with Libra
One of the most little-known compatible signs with Libra is the sweet-natured, gentle Pisces. Both signs avoid conflict and are fairly passive, which works well for each of them. There is also a high level of romance and things can feel very sweet when Libra and Pisces get together. Of course, issues are often swept under the rug, which is the only real weakness of this relationship.
The other air signs – Aquarius and Gemini – are also highly compatible with Libra. Aquarius is especially good because they stabilize and ground Libra in a way that few other signs do. This is because Aquarius is known as a ‘fixed’ sign and is therefore very consistent and reliable. They will also overlook the Libra’s flirtatiousness as they are quite friendly themselves. These two signs know how to give each other space, but at the same time they are also each other’s best friends.
Least compatible signs with Libra
There are really very few, if any, signs that are incompatible with Libra. See, Libra is such an easy-going, compromising sign that they’ll make it work on just about anyone. But if we had to choose one or two incompatible signs, it might be Cancer. Cancers are known for their need for a deep emotional bond, which comes across as clingy to Libra. Cancers also value home and family life, while Libra may be more about socializing and friends. This classic introvert-extrovert relationship can provide some balance, but it will take quite a bit of work and adjustment.
Another potentially incompatible sign with Libra is Virgo. Although these two will have very intelligent discussions, Virgo tends to be a planner and likes everything to be in order, while Libra prefers some spontaneity. Virgo is also quite reserved, while Libra is the opposite. These two are a bit like chalk and cheese, although good communication will go a long way toward making this something special. Finally, Capricorn can also be a tricky mix for Libra, as they value commitment, tradition and duty, and may find Libra to be too flirtatious. There’s a level of possessiveness here that Libra won’t enjoy.
