Let’s know what your desires are, in a relationship

We all want different things in a relationship. Whether it’s love, lust or security, usually our needs tend to overpower our wishes. We may wish to be in a perfect relationship but what we may actually need is the assurance of love in the relationship. Since relationships are an integral part of our lives, what we want and actually need in a relationship depends on our personality characteristics. And this can be easily determined with the help of the twelve astrological zodiac signs. So, let’s now know what your needs and wants in the relationship might be, according to your zodiac sign.

2/13

Aries

They need support, enthusiasm and backup in a relationship from their partner, especially since Aries is ruled by Lord Mangal which is known to be the fire element. And so, they take huge initiatives to woo someone, but eventually, they need support back from the person.

3/13

Taurus

They are ruled by Venus, which is a planet that is dependent on their partner or other people to give them support. They have a lifestyle that is a bit extravagant and they need someone close to always tell them what is right or what can be appreciated.

4/13

Gemini

They are the masters in being completely vague when it comes to expressing their needs and desires. They are unreasonable and look up to others for validation. They are dependent and they need positive people to guide them in the right direction.

5/13

Cancer

They are ruled by the planet of emotion, the moon. They are quite independent but also are swayed away by other dominant planets. They want love, care and affection but they do not always need people at their end and are confident of how they are.

6/13

Leo

They are already tigers who live alone and are quite decisive about their needs. They also like to impose their needs or desires on others. Sometimes they can be very unreasonable too. They can be jealous and possessive at times.

7/13

Virgo

They are ruled by a planet bearing confusion i.e Mercury but still, they know about their needs and requirements. They do want love but they are not clear about getting validation of love, care and respect for others. And so, they immensely need support from their partner.

8/13

Libra

They are accustomed to a lavish and extravagant lifestyle which is also validated by their desires. They need the support of their family and friends to get the approval of their partner but their desire overthrows everything else.

9/13

Scorpio

They are ruled by Mars that is a planet with great decision-making ability. They are dependable and they know their needs. They do not exceed their aspirations. So when they love someone, they will want to do everything for them. It then becomes a need for them to fulfil.

10/13

Sagittarius

They are the most sorted sun sign who know what they want and need, clearly. They don’t like to depend on their partner, so they will do everything by themselves. But they eventually want their partner to be involved in everything they do.

11/13

Capricorn

They have very strong decision making power and consider themselves as superior beings. They want their partner to be equally headstrong as them but in all honesty, all they need is someone who they can cosy up to and feel happy with. So, a soft-hearted person would be their ideal partner.

12/13

Aquarius

Their needs are obvious as they are pretty blunt about what they need in a relationship. Whatever they want, they will make sure they get it. So there is no clash between desires and needs. They are not in search of any person whose main goal is to support them. They are independent enough.

13/13

Pisces

They are spiritually inclined and want someone who is quite similar to them. They are understanding, caring and very sensitive, so they need someone who can have a stog hold over the relationship, only so that they can daydream and not face the realities of relationships. They need their partner to do that.
