Would You Or Wouldn’t You Date A Sagittarius?

by Ashley Fern

Does a person’s astrological sign really say something about his or her dating personality or overall disposition? Many people strongly believe in the stars and what they stand for, while others do not. Regardless, it’s always fun to investigate such a topic and explore it in its entirety.

We’re currently in the cycle of Sagittarius, so we are going to take a closer look at the qualities of a person born between November 22 and December 21. Would you want to date someone of this sign? Time to whip out the pros and cons:

Pros

Optimistic You don’t want to waste your time dating a person who is always looking for the negative in situations. Problems do frequently arise in relationships, so if your partner is always looking at the bad, how will you ever hope to overcome them? A Sagittarius is typically optimistic, which is a very desirable trait in a partner.

Aware of his or her body Lucky for you, if you date a Sagittarius, his or her looks won’t disappear once he or she gets comfortable. A Sagittarius understands the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle and staying in shape. There’s nothing worse than dating someone who just lets himself or herself go because he or she becomes complacent.

Truthful What could you want more in a partner besides honesty? Even if you don't want to hear it, a Sagittarius will tell you anyway. You won't have to deal with any shadiness since your partner will be forthcoming with whatever is being discussed at the time.

Inquisitive Asking questions is the only way to learn new things and gain knowledge. Why would you not want to date a person who wants to learn about everything the world has to offer? These people are the type to try new things in order to make the most of their experiences.

Clear thinkers You don't want to date a person who cannot see the big picture. Having the ability to understand the grand scheme of things broadens perspective and allows this person to see where others are coming from. That is a crucial element in any relationship, especially given the fact that compromises must be made in order for it to succeed.

Cons

Can’t hold his/her tongue Since people of this sign are very open and honest, they have a difficult time knowing when to keep opinions to themselves. These people can talk so quickly and so often that they do not take the time to realize the full weight of what they're saying. This can and will lead to hurt feelings, something that you don't always want to deal with in a relationship.

Impatient This is not a great quality to have when you're in a relationship, as a lack of patience can cause a person to become infuriated over the littlest things. Little fights lead to bigger fights and sooner or later you don't even know what you're arguing about anymore. Impatience leads to drama one way or another, and that's something many people just don't have the time or energy for.

Being constrained People of this sign are very antsy and need to be entertained constantly, so if you aren't keeping their attention, you better bet your partner is going elsewhere.

Promises more than he/she can deliver Well if a Sagittarius is going to have a problem, this would be it. When you are in a relationship with someone, you want to be on the same page. If your partner is constantly not living up to his or her promises, you are only going to become frustrated until you reach your breaking point.

When it comes down to it, it seems the pros do outweigh the cons.
