Here's The First Impression You Leave On A First Date, Based On Your Zodiac Sign, & Wow

If there's any sign that thrives on first dates, it's Aries. That's because they live for challenges and new experiences and, by definition, a first date is both. As a result, the impression you give off on a first date is one of confidence and enthusiasm. It's clear you’re having a great time and are comfortable in your own skin.

While Taurus is at their best when they are in their comfort zone surrounded by friends and loved ones, the good news is that it takes no time at all for warm-hearted and loving Taurus to turn a stranger into a loved one. Which is why, pretty quickly, shy Taurus becomes flirty and charming, even on a first date.

As you get to know a Gemini, over time, you will learn just how multifaceted a personality they can have. But on a first date, Gemini really knows how to bring out their great date persona. They are world-class conversationalists and incredibly witty. Anyone one on a date with a Gemini is going to come away charmed, impressed, and intrigued.

Cancers can tend to worry they aren’t great on a first date, but honestly, that’s not true at all. Their concern is that they're too quiet, withdrawn, and cautious. And sure, they do tend to be a little less forthcoming on a first date, but they also are incredible listeners, who, thanks to their gift of intuitiveness, can make those around them open up and feel comfortable, even on the first date.

Unlike some of the other signs, Leo probably isn’t too worried about how they're going to come off on the date. After all, why wouldn’t they like you? You’re amazing. And, for the most part, that epic amount of confidence creates a great impression on your date. You’re bold, playful, and magnetic. Just be careful not to tip over from confident to egotistical.

For shy, self-critical Virgo, a first date is kind of the worst. Stop being so hard on yourself, Virgo — if you can just relax, you're actually a great date. Let your curious nature take the lead, and your date will come away feeling like you were engaged, intelligent, and super down to earth.

Libra’s crush first dates. This natural born social butterfly isn’t going to get all nervous about sharing a meal with basically a stranger. Nope, it's just an opportunity to be social, charming, and charismatic. All characteristics that leave a positive impression on whoever was lucky enough to score some one-on-one time with you.

Scorpios, as a rule, can be really hard to read — until they are ready for you to know what they want. This is especially true on a first date. If a Scorpio is interested, they will make their first move, but if they aren’t, or they are unsure, they are happy to sit back and be mysterious. This makes them irresistible and unforgettable to their dates.

Is it any surprise that the sign most uninterested in commitments would be great on a first date? After all, pretty much all your dates are first dates since you tend to lose interest quickly. Sag is just a free spirit who is up for a good time. So, on a first date they tend to come off as open-minded, fun, and, since we all want what we can’t have, oh-so-desirable.

Like Virgo, Capricorn is not at their most comfortable on a first date — unless they can think about it like a competition. If so, then look out. But for the most part, their reserved and careful nature can tend to make them feel less connected on a date. However, there is no denying that this sign has a natural wit that intelligent folks are drawn to.

Aquarius doesn’t tend to go on a lot of first dates. They are wildly independent, and so they aren’t really on the hunt for a partner, which can make them seem a bit standoffish when they do actually go on dates. But they are so quirky and one-of-a-kind that they're unforgettable, so it's worth doing the work to get past their walls.

Because Pisces is such a natural born romantic, they tend to really want to come off well on a first date. While this sincerity is really charming, it can also make them feel shy. Pisces also can be a bit, well, flighty, so they probably show up a bit late to dates. But ultimately, the impression they leave is one of genuine sweetness and open-heartedness.

So, there you have it, folks. Are you making the impression you hope to be? Great, then just keep on doing what you do. However, if you aren’t, well, then at least you know where to start making changes! Because you want someone to get to know the real you, right from the very first date.
