1
Leo. A Leo-Leo relationship has a lot of potential—after all, these two understand what makes the other tick. While this can be a really good thing, it also means they can get a little bored with each other. Plus, each Leo needs so much attention from the other, that they may not be able to satisfy their partner.^{[3]XResearch source}
- To make a Leo-Leo match succeed, both partners have to be very giving and loving without trying to be the center of attention. As long as they give their time and plenty of compliments, the relationship can work.
2
Virgo. Virgo is a grounded earth sign, so they're incredibly practical, and a Leo man might not appreciate how serious or reserved they are. With that being said, both signs are great at taking care of themselves and like taking care of their looks—Virgo is fastidious when it comes to appearance and self-care, which may interest Leo. Still, keep in mind that Leo needs a lot of reassurance from his Virgo partner for the relationship to work.
- To improve compatibility, the Virgo partner should celebrate Leo's successes and admirable traits instead of pointing out things he needs to work on.
3
Pisces. A Leo man and Pisces have relationship potential. Pisces is a water sign, so they're in touch with their emotions—a great trait if they can share their feelings with their Leo guy. However, he might get frustrated if his Pisces partner is unpredictable or too sensitive at times.
- Pisces tends to avoid conflict, which can be challenging for the relationship if Leo always takes the lead and doesn't consider Pisces' feelings.
4
Cancer. As a water sign, Cancer is deeply in touch with their emotions and they need to get complete emotional support from their Leo man. Since Leo needs so much attention and reassurance, Cancer might not feel cared for.
- A Leo-Cancer relationship has some great potential if the two put emotional openness first and Cancer lets their Leo guy take the lead in the relationship.
5
Capricorn. A Leo-Capricorn relationship has some challenges. The Leo man might find Capricorn too serious and focused on practical matters. They also have different personality styles—while Leo is warm and outgoing, Capricorn can be introverted and reserved. To make this relationship work, both partners need to appreciate their loyalty and commitment.
- If they learn to value their differences, Capricorn will enjoy relaxing and letting go. The Leo man can learn a thing or two about organization and routine.
6
Taurus. These two have completely different outlooks on life, which can make a relationship difficult. A Leo man has a hard time relating to his Taurus partner's laid-back and stable personality. He just can't understand why Taurus would rather stay home than go out and socialize!
- If these two hit it off initially, they can keep the fire alive by really trying to understand their differences. Taurus might make attempts to be outgoing, while Leo can compromise on a night in once in a while.
7
Scorpio. A Leo man with a Scorpio partner can be explosive! Since they're both fixed signs, they tend to be set in their ways. This is a bit of a problem since Scorpio likes to be in charge and Leo wants to be worshipped. These two can also struggle with feelings of jealousy.
- To make this potentially-passionate relationship work, both signs have to take turns making decisions and work on letting go of their egos.
