Which Sign Is A Virgo Most Compatible With?

Dating a Virgo is not for the faint of heart. This highly judgmental and discerning zodiac sign is among the most difficult to impress romantically — but not for the reason you might think. Often, they're written off as one of the most apathetic signs when it comes to dating. However, these tenderhearted observers tend to fall fast once you've put in the work. "Virgoans have a great capacity to love — almost to idolize — and they tend to create standards for sex partners, setting them on pedestals. They are not given to romanticism, but once they have fallen in love they are extremely cooperative mates, permanently loyal and most helpful life partners," writes Theodor Laurence in "The Foundation Book of Astrology."

Though it might be intimidating to court a Virgo at first, the key to winning their heart is consistency, not flair. In her book "Love Signs," astrologer Linda Goodman explains that Virgos see love as a surrender of the self. This means they are expecting their perfect match to be just as willing to accept feedback and compromise in a relationship. This thoughtful and determined earth sign understands that building a relationship that will stand the test of time takes sacrifice on both ends — and Virgos go into every partnership with a clear mind and an open heart.

So, if you're curious about who has what it takes to impress a Virgo, look no further. Keep reading to discover the zodiac signs that Virgo is most compatible with.

Mysterious, brooding, and emotionally deep — it's no wonder that Scorpios make an ideal match for earthy Virgo. The personality differences between this pair might seem extreme, but make no mistake, Scorpio and Virgo are a modern-day Pride and Prejudice. As astrologer January Nelson explains on Thought Catalog, there's a "karmic bond" between these two zodiac signs that can make it almost impossible for them to resist one another. Virgo and Scorpio share an intense mutual obsession that allows them to open up with one another on a very deep, intimate level.

Virgos require a lot of time to test the boundaries of a relationship before they can feel comfortable. Oftentimes, they'll hang back and observe their partner for a bit as opposed to offering up their opinions right away. This is a test of whether or not their partner has the ability to take charge and create a safe environment for the Virgo to show their true colors — which Scorpios can easily ace. "They can trust each other, depend on each other to have the other's back, and respect the other's opinions," astrologer Kristina Semos tells Bustle.

While this pairing might not be the sexiest on the list, it is one of the most stable. Overall, Taurus and Virgo are a very well-matched couple due to their approach to life. They approach conflict similarly, talking through their problems without exploding and working together to find a mutual understanding. "Virgo and Taurus are a match made in heaven, and it goes beyond their ruling element as earth signs," astrologer Valerie Mesa tells Elite Daily, "[A] Virgo wants someone they can fully rely on. This, of course, makes a Taurus swoon, given their innate desire for stability [and] security."

When it comes to expressing their affection for one another, these two love to spend quality time together. According to Horoscope.com, Virgo and Taurus are the "old married couple" of the zodiac, whose subtle views of romance make them a perfect match. These two earth signs shared similar values and are both the type to approach love in a practical way. They're not the type to showboat with extravagant gifts and sappy social media posts. In fact, they're more likely to elope away for a romantic getaway without any fanfare.

Virgo and Capricorn's romantic compatibility is among the best in the entire zodiac. These two are a rational and high–achieving pair. Capricorns admire Virgos and their attention to detail, while Virgos admire Capricorns' ambition and drive for success (via Astrology.com). When it comes to commitment, Virgo and Capricorn are a harmoniously matched pair that are wholly devoted to hyping each other up.

Virgos have an air of elegance and poise about them that aids them well in their dating life. Their subtle and charming humor tends to attract like-minded earth signs. And if you're really looking to win them over, Cosmopolitan recommends expressing your affection with acts of service; which is a specialty of Capricorns. As the self–proclaimed hustler of the zodiac, a Capricorn isn't afraid to work hard and spend a little cash to make sure the Virgo in their life is comfortable and fulfilled emotionally, financially, and romantically.
