In Love
The innate perfectionism of people born on this day can make them seem demanding and overly critical. Yet if your emotional demands are met, you are quite capable of giving your all for love. More concerned with pleasing than being pleased, you make a caring and thoughtful lover. However, your feelings are easily hurt, especially if you believe that your devotion is unappreciated. When you are attracted to someone, instead of immediately following up on your feelings, you stop to analyze them. You won’t proceed to the next step until you convince yourself that the relationship isn’t a mistake.
In Bed
Your ability to analyze any situation makes you a methodical yet creative and innovative lover. Communication is essential to you, in or out of bed.
In sharing your ideas and insights, you feel closer to your mate. Your ideal partner first engages your mind, then your heart, and last (but not least) your body. A loving and considerate bedmate sustains your affection. You don’t like worrying about tomorrow. Just knowing your partner is committed to the relationship makes you feel safe and secure.
Turn-ons
Because you shoulder so many responsibilities, the lover who is capable of enticing you away from your worries turns you on. A courtship that begins with a romantic evening on the town starts melting your resistance before you even return home. Provocative, erotic suggestions arouse you physically by exciting you mentally.
Reality Check
You are eager to help people in need whenever you can. However, your idealism and preconceived notions of right and wrong can lead you to believe that you must do everything your own way or not at all. When others disagree with you, you state your case in a straightforward manner that is honest and sincere yet sometimes rather tactless.
