The stars may influence us in many ways, but when it comes to love, each zodiac sign has a unique—and often surprising—taste in men.
Whether it’s an affinity to the bold and daring or the delicate and sensitive, your astrological sign may have you drawn to guys who don’t necessarily correspond with your logical tastes. Some of these cosmic connections work beautifully, while others leave us wondering our decisions.
So, let’s take a closer look at the type of man each zodiac sign is drawn to, for better or ill.
Aries (March 21 – April 19): The Daredevil
The Type: Aries women are attracted to guys that exemplify adventure, passion, and a sense of fearlessness. They crave a mate who can keep up with their enthusiastic, go-getter spirit. The kind of person who loves to take risks, push boundaries, and isn’t afraid to dive headfirst into new challenges is likely to attract their attention.
Why It’s Questionable: While a brave, confident man might be exhilarating, Aries may often find themselves attracted to men who are more reckless than responsible. Their propensity to risk-takers may lead them to men who don’t always have the finest judgment or long-term stability. As much as they love the rush, sometimes the consequences can be more than they bargained for.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20): The Reliable Yet Stubborn Type
The Type: Taurus is drawn to guys who radiate stability, dependability, and comfort. Men that are steady in their job, committed to their families, and committed to their relationships exude an energy that women find attractive. Imagine a guy who can provide her with the stability she needs and who appreciates life’s little delights.
Why It’s Doubtful: Taurus women frequently stay in committed partnerships with equally obstinate men. Although they tend to remain committed to a partner due to their strong loyalty instincts, this stability can lead to stagnation in relationships, which in turn can lead to conflicts. Frustrating dynamics could arise when the man refuses to compromise, even when it comes to matters of the heart.
May 21–June 20: Gemini: The Master of Ambiguity
The Type: Gemini men are the ones who can keep up with her unpredictable moods and interests because she is renowned to be adaptable, clever, and inquisitive. Someone who is both extroverted and intellectually interesting would be the ideal partner for a Gemini.
The attractive, charismatic type may captivate Gemini, but she may end up with men who aren’t always trustworthy or honest, which raises doubts about their reliability. Occasionally, Geminis find themselves attracted to men who seem to understand them and their interests, but whose real intentions are hidden until a later date. It’s tempting to fall for a con artist’s charisma, but doing so could leave you bewildered and disappointed.
Cancer (June 21–July 22): A Subtle Defender
Cancer women are looking for males who can provide the emotional stability and support they crave because of their innate nurturing nature. She will fall head over heels for a guy who is kind, understanding, and emotionally expressive. Those men who can be both strong and vulnerable are the ones she finds most attractive.
The Reasons It’s Doubtful: Even while sensitivity is key, Cancer males can wind up being too emotional, dependent, or unable to hold their own. They may end up in relationships where the power dynamic is imbalanced because they give too much to their partners out of a desire to protect and care for them.
The Showstopper: Leo (July 23–August 22)

Characteristics: Leos are admirers at heart and tend to attract men who are just as fearless and self-assured as they are. Men with charm, authority, and the ability to command attention whatever they go tend to attract her. She will be captivated by a man who shares her desire for being the focus of attention.
Why It’s Doubtful: Although a self-assured man can be attractive, Leos have a tendency to attract egotistical or self-absorbed men. Leo may feel unloved or ignored because these men are more concerned with themselves than with their companion. Finding a happy medium in a relationship can be challenging when both people involved want all the attention.
From August 23 to September 22, Virgo is the sign of the flawlessly flawed man
The Virgo personality type is analytical, methodical, and meticulous. She finds males attractive when they are mature, thoughtful, and able to engage in meaningful discourse. She would be ideal for a partner who can provide her with both security and structure.
Why It’s Doubtful: Virgo has a tendency to be overly idealistic, which means she might ignore males who don’t measure up. She may find herself frustrated because she is attracted to men who are “almost perfect” yet fail to meet her expectations. When Virgo tries too hard to change her spouse, she may end up disappointed when he doesn’t respond the way she expected.
Libra: The Charming Orator (September 23–October 22)
Libra is attracted to guys who are graceful, charismatic, and have an uncanny knack for looking well because of their emphasis on harmony, balance, and beauty. A Libra’s ideal mate would be a man who can satisfy their need for emotional and intellectual harmony. Her ideal partner would be a funny guy who can keep things light while still being serious.
Although Libra values harmony and tranquility, she may have an attraction to men who are charming yet untrustworthy, which raises doubts about their reliability. Despite saying the perfect things to win her over, these men never really do anything. If Libra is trying to keep the peace in a relationship at the expense of her own wants, she may end up frustrated or with unmet desires because of her desire for balance.
October 23–November 21: Scorpio: The Mysterious Mysteries
The Sort: Scorpio is drawn to men who are mysterious, deep, and emotionally intense. She craves passion and connection, and the man who can match her intensity—both intellectually and emotionally—is the one who captures her attention. A man who is fearless in facing the depths of life’s complexities is her type.
Why It’s Questionable: Scorpio’s attraction to intense, secretive men can sometimes lead her down a dangerous path. She may find herself drawn to men who are emotionally unavailable, manipulative, or even destructive. These men often bring turbulence and drama into her life, but Scorpio’s desire for emotional depth can make it hard for her to break away, even when she knows it’s not the healthiest dynamic.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21): The Freedom Seeker
The Type: Sagittarius loves independence, exploration, and adventure. She’s drawn to men who share her love for spontaneity, travel, and new experiences. The perfect man for Sagittarius is one who is confident, open-minded, and able to keep up with her ever-evolving passions.
Why It’s Questionable: Sagittarius’ tendency to fall for free-spirited, adventurous men can sometimes lead her into relationships with men who are non-committal, flaky, or unwilling to settle down. While the excitement is undeniable, these relationships may lack stability, leaving Sagittarius feeling unfulfilled when her partner’s commitment falls short of her desires.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19): The Ambitious Achiever
The Type: Capricorn is a practical, ambitious, and driven individual who admires men with similar traits. She’s drawn to men who are hardworking, responsible, and goal-oriented. A man who is serious about his career and can offer her a sense of security and stability is her ideal match.
Why It’s Questionable: Capricorn can sometimes become so focused on achieving success that she ends up with men who are too serious or too focused on their own ambitions. In some cases, she may be drawn to men who are emotionally distant or workaholics, leaving her feeling neglected in the relationship. Her desire for success can also cause her to overlook more emotionally fulfilling partners in favor of those who seem more “successful” on paper.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18): The Intellectual Rebel
The Type: Aquarius is a forward-thinker who values individuality, innovation, and intellectual connection. She’s attracted to men who are unconventional, unique, and can challenge her intellect. The perfect man for Aquarius is someone who is open-minded, creative, and free-spirited.
Why It’s Questionable: Aquarius can sometimes be drawn to men who are too aloof, eccentric, or emotionally unavailable. While she values intellectual stimulation, her ideal partner may lack the emotional depth or consistency that she needs. Her love for the unconventional can also lead her to overlook practical matters in relationships, leaving her with partners who are more theoretical than reliable.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20): The Dreamer
The Type: Pisces women are often drawn to men who are compassionate, artistic, and sensitive. She craves emotional connection and seeks a man who can appreciate her creativity and depth. A man who understands her dreams and can meet her in a place of vulnerability is highly appealing.

Why It’s Questionable: While Pisces’ dreamy nature is beautiful, it can lead her to be drawn to men who are unrealistic, overly idealistic, or emotionally unstable. Sometimes, she may find herself in relationships with men who offer fleeting promises but fail to follow through, leaving her disillusioned and heartbroken when the reality doesn’t match her expectations.
Each zodiac sign’s cosmic cravings may sometimes lead them to surprising, even questionable, choices in men. While the stars can guide us toward a certain type, true compatibility goes beyond cosmic influence—it’s about finding balance, emotional fulfillment, and personal growth in any relationship.
So, the next time your sign is drawn to a man who doesn’t quite fit the bill, remember: even the stars aren’t always right!
