3 Zodiac Signs Who Need Intellectual Intimacy In Relationships

  • Updated

Intellectual intimacy is connecting on a cerebral level. It’s exchanging ideas and discussing the bigger things in life. Some people require more of a mental connection than others to fall in love and be happy in a relationship.

As such, here are three zodiac signs who need intellectual intimacy in relationships.

1. Aquarius

Aquarius doesn’t fall easily. This air sign can be rather aloof when it comes to matters of the heart but this is only because they do not connect in the traditionally romantic way, and not everyone understands this. This is because Aquarius falls in love with someone’s mind. Aquarius needs to feel intellectually stimulated and intrigued in order to be interested and connected to another person.

2. Virgo

Virgo isn’t interested in superficial romance. Rather, Virgo wants a partner who helps them become a better, more well-rounded person who can challenge them, teach them, and stimulate their mind all at once. As such, this practical earth sign is most attracted to people who are incredibly smart and who they can have complex, intellectual discussions with.

3. Gemini

Gemini is a mutable air sign with a penchant for deep conversation. This makes sense, given the fact that Gemini is ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication, cognition, and memory. This is what makes Gemini so smart and what gives them such a strong intellect. Because they are so connected to their own mind, Gemini is endlessly interested in pretty much everything. They want to learn about it all. Because of this, Gemini needs a person who can not only keep up with their interests but also engage with those curiosities, too.
