Advice for dating a Leo?
I've gone on a few dates with a Leo m(23) and I really like him! But I have heard some not great things about dating Leos (especially Leo men) so I'm feeling wary lol. So anyone who has gone out with a Leo or who is a Leo themself, what should I know? Positive v. negative personality traits? How do I keep him interested/keep the magic alive if we keep dating?
Leo is a very friendly and generous sign and they are the most affectionate sign in the Zodiac. If they are interested in you, they will constantly compliment you, buy you things, and show off and brag. They have little tells when they like you. They are a natural flirt, they will twirl their hair, flex, puff out their chest, check their posture, or have a sexy walk or strut. They are friendly, generous, love to touch, and are not shy about public displays of affection.
To keep your Leo man interested, do things with him and participate in his favorite activities. If he likes football, go to the game or bring snacks on game day to show that you're interested in the same things he is! Laugh at his jokes (even the dumb ones) to make him feel like he is the big man on campus. He'll always love compliments on how handsome, strong, and clever he is as well.

I've been with my Leo man for almost a year now and let me tell you, he is the nicest guy I've ever been with. He's not afraid to show how much he loves me and he treats me like a queen. I've never met someone as loyal as him, and I feel so connected with him.
There are a couple red flags to watch out for though. My Leo talks about himself a lot more than he talks about me and sometimes it feels like my opinions are "wrong" and his are "right." Just keep up open communication about how he makes you feel, but bring up the topic gently.

Yes, Leos can have a terrific temper when they feel their ego is wounded.
If you're looking at compatibility, Leos are best with another fire sign. I think Leo needs someone who would understand the magnificence of Leo, like an Aries or a Sagittarius. I would say Aries are very strong and they can deal with the Leo temperament. Aries is Cardinal fire, so a Leo would find that very uplifting.
Sagittarius is also a very good match, but they are a mutable sign while Leo is a fixed sign. Mutable signs like Sagittarius or Gemini can sometimes annoy fixed signs because they're all over the place. Mutable signs may find the fixed sign are a bit uptight, stiff, or controlling. However, because Sag and Leo are both fire signs, they tend to make a good match.
Aquarius is the opposite of Leo, and It can go either way with a Leo and Aquarius couple. A Leo can sometimes act full of themselves and Aquarians can be a bit spurious about that.

Flattering a Leo makes your relationship so strong. Give them compliments, thank them for supporting you, and show them your appreciation back, and you'll be set :)
I think Leo men have such a bad reputation because Leos tend to need a lot of praise and admiration, and men are often really frustrating to be around if they’re full of themselves haha.
With that said, Leo guys are usually so friendly and affectionate that it makes up for any neediness in the personality department. I’d just keep an eye out for any super jealous behavior. That heavy affection often comes with a bit of a price in the possessiveness department, so just set really clear boundaries if you see even a hint of controlling behavior.

I agree with the reply above. I’ve dated two Leo guys and one of them had serious problems with jealously. It wasn’t anything we couldn’t work through—especially since he was open and honest about the feelings he was having—but it did make the relationship difficult at times. So long as you can stand up for yourself, it’s actually kind of a sweet quality. They want you to themselves so badly! Just don’t let it cross the line.

OK, the attention thing for Leos is the MOST exaggerated nonsense of modern astrologers. Leo is a powerful, fierce, determined, courageous, protective and dominant sign. In earlier astrology Leo was a SOLITARY sign.
If you want to stay with a Leo, accept their high need for attention from others! They crave attention and affection and love.

Reader Tips from How to Date a Leo Man: Everything You Need to Know
Leos are immensely faithful, but they can get overly jealous. In my experience, they hate it if you hide even smallest of small thing from them, so it's best to be up front and tell them everything, even if you think it's no big deal.
Leos do not like negative people. They don't mind helping someone or having sympathy for someone who is going through something tough, but they prefer being around positive, upbeat people who aren't complainers.
Be careful with what you say to a Leo—they take everything you say to heart, and they don't do well with criticism, even if you were just joking.
