In love with a Sagittarius? Ms T has the inside on what makes this sign unique, how to make him yours and what not to do to drive him away
In a Sagittarius man’s head
Sagittarius is represented by the centaur — half man, half horse — which is why a Sagittarius man has the ego of a man and the restlessness of a horse.
If he were to write a love story, he’d make sure that he plays all the characters because hey, no one can do it better than him. He knows that if anyone’s going to find pearls, diamonds, oil and anything important to mankind, it’s him. He is an explorer by nature so all this heroism comes from his love of adventure and globe-trotting.
Restlessness and speed is innate to a Sagittarius man which is why he loves to charge off on trips that he believes are nothing less than quests. Similarly, he wants his relationships to be quests and adventures that he can explore over the course of time, like a strange and exotic place.
A male born under this zodiac sign is generally idealistic, honest and truthful. When it comes to love, a Sagittarian is slow to commit and enjoys the chase. But once he has fully accepted you in his life, he will show unerring loyalty and faithfulness. He can, however, walk out on you without warning if one fine day he wakes up and realises that your relationship issues can’t be resolved; this makes them a tad bit unreliable.
Match made in heaven
Sagittarius man — Leo woman
Both the Sagittarius male and Leo female feel powerful magnetism towards each other. Sagittarius male’s fun loving side and Leo female’s seriousness matches very well too.
DON’T even think about it
Sagittarius man — Virgo woman
Careful and practical, the Virgo woman may see Sagittarius as careless and irresponsible. The Archer will find her too much of a homebody which will make him think of her as boring. Sagittarius man may never be able to give a Virgo woman the emotional security she craves.
Spur him into action
Move like a lady: Confidence is one quality that makes every man swoon and our Sagittarius is no exception. Your ‘take it or leave it’ attitude will make him value you more as a woman.
Put him through the paces: Archers want a challenge, so don’t just offer yourself to him on a silver plate with whipped cream on top. Sagittarius men may select Level Easy in their video games; they want quite the opposite in the dating game. Play hard to get. But don’t overdo it, as they might just give up on you.
Give him the Superman cape: Try complimenting him on his looks, outfit, haircut, his broken toothbrush, basically anything you can find.
Be assertive: The archer has a weakness for women who’ve got their act together and know what they are talking about. You can have opinions around him just — make sure they don’t, in any way, put a damper on his self-proclaimed awesomeness.
Don’t make him bridle
If you can’t stand chauvinistic creeps you may want to pass up on a Sagittarius man. He gets a burr under his saddle if he is proven wrong about anything, because it makes him feel stupid and out of the loop. If you are superior to him in the wit department, try to diminish his insecurity by making him do things for you and be generous with your compliments.
Jealousy is the oldest trick in the book but it can backfire back when you use it on a Sagittarius man. Archers have a very sensitive personality, and they’re quite possessive. So talking about the horsing round you did in college will only make him take out his bow and arrow and hunt down that sorry bloke for nothing.
