In the realm of relationships, some zodiac men prefer partners who match their strength rather than those who are meek. From the confident Leo to the analytical Virgo, each sign seeks a particular kind of dynamism in their romantic counterparts. Let’s delve into the astrological profiles of these men to understand why they gravitate towards assertive, independent women who challenge them at every turn.
Fifth place: Leo Man
The object that Leo needs must be someone who can surpass him in some aspect. Definitely. Even if it’s a Leo man. I’ve said before, Leo won’t easily bow down or easily recognize anyone unless in his heart, you are his “behind,” and he’s willing, even if he hands over the crown to you, they feel reassured and okay.
Such a “behind” must be powerful. Not just any random person can soar to the top. And such women must be strong in some aspects, even fully capable of assisting Leo in many things. Think about it carefully; it’s not hard to see that Leo men enjoy taking care of people and are easily attracted to some weak “little white rabbits,” but most of these women end up as fleeting romances for them.
In the end, Leo men often choose women who are evenly matched with them or even more cunning in some aspects because Leo ultimately follows the “bright” path, openly and honestly. When it comes to the “dark” path, those who scheme and manipulate beneath the surface, Leo can’t handle it. That’s when they need a woman by their side to offer guidance. Now you know why Leo men are always attracted to Scorpio women.
Fourth place: Virgo Man
Virgo is a perfectionist. And a typical rationalist. Rarely driven by emotions. Rarely failing to weigh the pros and cons. So in such a situation, a woman fully equipped, strong, and independent, versus a woman who can’t even protect herself and needs protection, who would Virgo choose?
What’s called a strong alliance, Virgo is clear about it. Furthermore, Virgo really dislikes those who constantly rely on their female advantages to act coquettish and demand things. Because in the concept of a Virgo man, if you need resources, you can rely on your own abilities and skills, why act coquettish?
So once they encounter someone who charges forward to achieve their goals or even a purpose, relying on enhancing their abilities to reach targets, Virgo men will be very attracted. Such a person makes Virgo men feel that she’s “optimizing” herself, becoming better and better. If we’re together, we can become better together, achieving more than just the sum of our parts, which is also very consistent with Virgo’s mate selection.
Third place: Aries Man
I’ve said it more than once before, Aries men like partners who are evenly matched or even able to surpass them. When Aries men make a move, whether joking with you or throwing hints, what they need is a woman who can take it, preferably one who can return fire with a flying kick, not someone who whines and whimpers.
Those kinds of girls bore Aries. Banter, jokes, wanting you to accompany them in craziness and mischief, or shoulder-to-shoulder camaraderie like brothers are all fine. But being weak, docile, and the sickly type just doesn’t appeal to Aries. At most, they think you’re good for a cry.
So often, Aries hopes you’re more like someone who can progress and accompany him, being each other’s mentors, even comrades, learning from each other, and achieving together. Especially for single-minded Aries, sometimes acting impulsively, they really need a rational and assertive person by their side to advise them to rein in their impulses.
This is very important. Otherwise, if you’re so weak that you can only sit behind Aries, when Aries falls off the cliff, you’ll go down with him.
Second place: Cancer Man
The desire for strength in Cancer is no less than in Leo. Moreover, the biggest point about Cancer is that, inside, Cancer men are really sensitive and fragile. People who have a good relationship with Cancer will find that although Cancer men appear to be big warm guys on the surface, in reality, they are very susceptible to small emotions and moods, and a bit unpredictable in front of close people.
This stems from their sensitivity and vulnerability. Always stable and cheerful in front of outsiders, that’s just their protective coloration. This kind of sensitivity and vulnerability urgently needs a very self-aware, conscious, and relatively assertive woman. Because they need this woman to stabilize their emotions, help them make decisions, and give them a sense of security.
If this woman is someone very weak, indecisive in the face of problems, and emotionally unstable, I’m telling you, they’ll have conflicts and emotional outbursts every other day. For Cancer men, assertiveness is not only a manifestation of self-magnetism and charm but also a way to grasp their traits. Many Cancer men end up with sisterly types of partners, for this reason.
First place: Gemini Man
Gemini men often have no resistance to sisterly women. Gemini men who like assertive types, this mainly comes from their deep appreciation for independent-minded women.
Especially those with viewpoints contrary to theirs, or even contradictory statements, can arouse their curiosity even more. Geminis spend their lives exploring and pursuing new things, so when faced with something different from themselves, they immediately become enthusiastic. Whereas a girl who’s submissive and obedient can really make Gemini men lose interest and lack the desire to conquer. Seeing through her at a glance, what’s the need for a process?
Without a process, where’s the fun? This is the mindset of a Gemini man. So when faced with a very independent, opinionated, and even confrontational girl, a Gemini man may even cling to her desperately. He wants to explore what else there is about this woman he can’t understand. This kind of collision of thoughts that refuses to bend to Gemini’s will is what fascinates the Mercury-ruled Gemini.
