What to expect when dating a Sagittarius
Hi y'all, I just went on my fourth date with a Sagittarius and I think things are getting a little more serious, but I've never dated a Sag before and I'm wondering what to expect. What should I know about dating Sagittariuses? What are they like in relationships and what signs are compatible with Sagittarius (fyi I'm an Aries)?

Sagittarius loves adventure and excitement. Like, if the two of you go sit on the back porch to watch fireflies, your Sagittarius partner is going to want to get on the next plane to Vegas, so try to keep date night active and fun. Sagittarius signs like being outdoors, so things like skiing trips or off-roading adventures are ideal.
So again, if you're very stagnant and set in your ways, this can be a tough relationship. I think Taurus signs are probably the least compatible in this regard. I knew a Sagittarius that was trying to have a relationship with a Taurus. I was like…dude, you have to actually go explore with them.
So, my final advice for you is to plan outdoor activities and try to be a flexible partner. Sagittarius is the rock star of the zodiac. They're very fiery and dynamic. So, that’s what they want in a partner! If that sounds like a good time to you, you’re going to be compatible with a Sagittarius regardless of your sign.

Sagittarius men love adventure. Which adventurous activity do you find more exciting?

I don't typically like Sagittarius men. They have no emotional skills or intelligence to keep things peaceful, can be verbally attacking. Being disrespectful seems to be their birth right.

I feel like everybody else is underselling it. This is an AWESOME pair. Sagittarius and Aries are both super funny, playful, friendly, and upbeat. This is just pouring positivity on more positivity. Sure, the concerns about inaction can be real, but this is an extremely minor problem compared to all of the good you get with this pair. As two fire signs, ya’ll are going to have so much adventure together. You’ll never struggle to find something to do and you’re always going to have a partner who is down for anything. 10/10. Do recommend.

I second what the last commenter said about Sags being possessive. The thing is male Sagittariuses are also very non-committal in my experience which is super frustrating, like...you're not allowed to be both!!!! Ugh. So I personally am over Sagittarius men but I know other people who have dated Sagittariuses and loved them.

Those saying "Run!" and "Sags are not faithful", be reminded that there are always exceptions. An ill mannered person will surely create problems in their relationships. This doesn't necessarily mean the zodiac sign is responsible for that.

That's what I was thinking while reading this thread. My first boyfriend was a Sagittarius man and he was so sweet, thoughtful, considerate, communicative, intelligent, and more. I'd advise people to not get too scared by what the zodiac says.

I'm a Sagittarius man dating a Libra woman for a few months now and I find her very intriguing, beautiful, and intelligent. She can be very seductive without saying a word.
As for Sagittarius not being loyal, I am a very loyal person why I'm glad she is as well.
I've had married 2 pieces and dated 2 in the past and we always clash.
Dating a Libra is so refreshing.

I hear a lot of good things here. I guess it depends on the person's morals and manners going along with respect and faithfulness. A Leo here, l've dated 2 sagittarius just to findout that they aren't faithful. Was it great while it lasted that l was in love, yes, so just be careful. Always allowed yourself to see the red flags. Don't get blinded by love or thinking that you can't find someone better in case you see red flags.

I'm a Sagittarius. We love learning new things having a debate on whatever topic as long as you realize we are perfectly happy to disagree as long as you don't loose your cool because we won't loose ours.Any thing outside is right on the money. And if she's into you you won't have to wonder she will tell you flat out. If you can keep up with her she will be your best friend and will always have your best interests on her mind. She will compromise on most things but there is a limit. Just don't lie to her like ever....bad idea.

Sags like the outdoors. Fishing, camping, hiking, ...most have a very outgoing personality. I dated one ONCE.,(also an Aries) he made a point to meet me (in a local bar where most all knew others) & try to impress me with his corvette, nice body ( construction worker) he took great pleasure in being the loudest- funniest- entertainer there. It was OK, he was not annoying. But he GOT TOO BOSSY for this Aries girl. I wasn't going to chase after him or come to beck & call. Have a friend (also a Sag) married to one. They have been together for 35yrs. Still in love. Good luck, give him space to move, think, and do his thing.

Everything everyone has mentioned already is spot on, but there’s something I haven’t seen mentioned yet. Sagittarius tends to be a little possessive, while Aries can super prideful. So, when the Sagittarius gets upset about the Aries talking to other guys or girls at a party, Aries can have a hard time meeting Sagittarius halfway and admitting they understand the other person. It’s really
important that you two avoid these kinds of silly misunderstandings, which is really all they are.

The most commonly touted pairs for Sagittarius are Aries, Leo, and other Sagittarius signs, but I agree with Angel—really any sign can work so long as the other person is open to new experiences.
I do agree that Taurus can be a rough fit. It just seems to lead to a lot of arguments in my experience. Taurus tends to be very stubborn, which is hard for the spirited Sagittarius signs out there. I think Pisces can also be a bit of a rough fit. Pisces tend to be very thoughtful and daydreamy, but that doesn’t often bode well for Sagittarius, which is all about action.
In terms of dating a Sagittarius, just be ready for changes to your plans. Sagittarius signs love seizing opportunities to do new things, so try not to get frustrated if your partner cancels plans for something they find more interesting. Just go with the flow and say “yes” to things! It’ll all work out.

You guys need to stop always putting down all Taurus as stubborn (all zodiac signs are stubborn too). In addition, all Taurus I know including myself are very adventurous (we also love traveling and nature outdoors, we are earth people). We also do not like arguments at all, we prefer to avoid them. However, we can be very direct and very honest. We are often also patient sometimes too. Until we are done with it, and then you are really unlucky. Greetings from an adventurous TAURUS ♉

I studied astrology years ago real deep. Never the Pisces until I found out I had a half- brother. Omg!! It is said that Pisces being the last sign & the end of zodiac has a bit of every sign in them. I believe it, they can be so so sweet & loving then 20 mins later caught up in some weird problem they have over thought?? So confusing, my brother is an out & out liar. Idk if he chooses to really lie, but he will tell you anything he thinks you need to hear to get what he wants. After figuring him out I realized why I never was attracted to one. Strangely tho I seemed to forever draw Pisces women to me. Oh boy! They are a handful. I'm thankful to be an ARIES!!!

Don’t agree with you! I’m Pisces too but with moon and rising in sag; so I love adventure, outdoors, travel… I’m sensitive but nature but because of my moon and rising which are more important in astrology no one ever guessed I’m Pisces!!
You have to look at everything in astrology and not just judged by sun sign!

As an Aries you’re going to have a good time with a Sagittarius partner. I’ve been in this relationship pair before actually, and it was a really great time (we only broke up because they had to move away for work). These two fire signs both value high energies and new adventures. Aries tends to be impulsive, which can throw other signs off. This isn't a problem for Sagittarius though, which is a sign that really relishes change and improvisation.
Sagittarius’s biggest issue is that they’re often too confident in themselves, which can irritate a lot of people. For Aries, this just adds to the energy of the relationship and gives fuel to the conversation and adventure. In other words, you two are in for an awesome time!

Good morning All,
I'm a Scorpio and just met a Sag located about 10 hours from me. We've had 4 very long and fun conversations. We both love to travel, we were born 1 month apart and both are 61. We are both healthy for our age and love many of the same things.
I'm trying not to overthink it or push it in any direction. And i'm going out of my comfort zone as a scorpio, to drive a little bit of the communication. In the past, I always let the guy contact me.
I wasn't really even looking for our relationship. But he has sparked my interest.
Thoughts?

Maybe it works better Sag women, Aries man. I have to say tho I've had many Aries men friends but whoop could never date one. They are super confident, over powering, usually very good looking & they know it. And I loathe stuck up men...

Hello,
Let me share my story with a Sagitarian guy. We have been best friends (not with benefits) for almost a decade now! We have admitted in the past (just a few years ago) that we were attracted to each other in many ways!
And then, this year, out of the blue he proposed to me…..twice! The first one was back in February. I thought he was just got carried away in the spur of the moment because it was Valentine’s Day!
The second time, was recently in October! He spilled his heart out to me….that he wants me, he’s very attracted to me, he wants to be with me, to be married to me and have a family together. He even went as far as discussing about where we gonna live, parenting style, how many children we wanna have, He also wants to convert to my religion in order to make it work, etc!
I was in complete shock!
Ofc it was a very pleasant surprise! But I really don’t know how to respond!
And then he went MIA for 2-3 weeks after that….I was panic! I send some messages, kinda crowding his Messanger! At that time I was thinking, what a wonderful thing this is….what we are having….something beautiful is blooming….blossom! I thought maybe one day we can get to know each other better and then fall in love to each other!
And then, all the sudden he sent me a message saying that he loves me, but he’s currently distracted and struggle due to some family problems! And then he’s MIA again for almost 2 months now….!!
I am confused!
Is he for real?
Was he really serious with the marriage proposal & confess his love and attraction to me?
Can someone help me please and give me some insights?
Thanks and happy new year 2025!

The man vs the women in the same sign can behave very differently. Sag men are very attractive and passionate but I believe(I've heard many others attest to this too) the majority by far are either covert or overt narcs. He didn't ghost u because he wanted an immediate answer u failed to give. He ghosted because he really doesn't want long term although most sag men say this because they are possessive and want u to be exclusive while they WILL cheat. They can come off cool and smooth and other times so passionate. They are charmers and they are EXPLORERS. They feel a need to discover several people in different and deeper ways and will manipulate to get that connection. He sprung this on u the few times he wasn't sure about another woman, and he is with that woman now until he craves to explore options again. When a man is serious about marrying u, he will show u consistency no matter what. There is no family issues so detrimental that he can't keep in touch with the woman he sees as his wife and mother of his future kids. Set boundaries with him. However rigid or flexible these boundaries should be needs to depend on ur hearts capability to entertain his presence with zero attachment because u have known him too long for him to be taking advantage of ur heart like this. It is cruel what he is doing but ur willingness to see that and accept that will require time spent on research on narcs and uplifting urself consistently reminding urself of ur worth. If ur religion brings comfort and roots u in ur identity of a woman of great worth(priceless) then embrace ur religious practices even more, than u will not tolerate anything less than to be honored as u honor others.

I'm a True to core Sagittarius female.
But I did find out that trying to work it out with a sag male doesn't work you have 2 true blue hard heads.
I got me a Leo for now and he's the sweetest man for Sagittarius.

If you date a sagatarius,Stay verry mysterious, In the distance and don't reveal to much to soon about you're life and yourself, They are hunters if you allow theme to hunt, If you reveal to much about yourself they loose interest very soon, If you telle theme you love theme to soon, they loose interest, one good advice, go slow with the relation@

Reader Tips from How to Date a Sagittarius
Sagittarius are outgoing, straightforward people! We love our freedom so please don't smother us. We are lovers and also fighters. Don't push a Sagittarius's buttons or they will show their true "fire sign." We love to feel protected as we are protectors, too. We are also very intuitive and very optimistic. We don't like people who lie or beat around the bush.
Let a Sagittarius like you first. If you express too much or at all, we'll run for the hills. It will feel like the chase is over. We love a chase that will keep our minds going but show that we are close because if not, we're on to the next.
Reader Tips from Sagittarius Compatibility: The Best Matches for Sagittarius
I'm a Scorpio and as such I am super stubborn, but I have been with my Sagittarius boyfriend for years! Just because your sun sign says one thing doesn't mean you're doomed. Look at the rest of your chart to see how compatible you really are together. Even if your chart says you may not be a match, you can still work to overcome any obstacles through healthy communication and practice.
Sagittarius can't be micro-managed. We need our space and room to breathe and explore and have fun, even without you sometimes! Signs like Aquarius or other chill, easy-going signs understand this but if you're a more stubborn sign like Taurus then that's something you'll have to work on (and if your Sag loves you they'll work on opening up to you and reassuring you when you need it).

Sagittarius men do not commit easily, but when they do commit, they commit for good. They just need time to figure out what they want sometimes. But also if you can't handle their indecision, it's your prerogative to leave!
The key to keeping a Sagittarius man interested is to give him plenty of space and don't smother him, and keep things interesting. Sagittarians are adventurous and they get bored easily so spice things up whenever you can.
