We all take astrology in varying degrees of seriousness. While some of us may be obsessively checking our horoscopes on a daily basis, others tend to take each sign’s personality traits with a grain of salt, more interested in it for entertainment.
However, it can be agreed upon that one interesting aspect is how we act when it comes to dating and relationships. Am I a good match with this new person I’m seeing? Why do I tend to act a certain way on dates? Many of us might turn to astrology to find an answer to many of our questions. Having said that, here are first date tips for every zodiac sign:
