3 Zodiacs Who Are Secretly Hopeless Romantics

They’d never admit it out loud, but these zodiac signs love love and are totally enthralled by the idea of deep connection and total commitment. Here are the three zodiac signs who are secret hopeless romantics.

1. Scorpio

Scorpio is well-known for their intensity in relationships, an intensity that borders on possessive and is most definitely jealous. While these traits can be the result of feeling insecure, their tendency to be clingy and jealous do not define how Scorpio loves (nor how they view love either).

The truth of the matter is that Scorpio craves a love that is as deep as the ocean, and they want to love and be loved in tidal waves. Scorpio won’t say this out loud, since they are incredibly self-protective and fearful of rejection. However, Scorpio doesn’t really need to say they are deep lovers. Their love speaks for itself to the lucky few that get to experience it.

2. Capricorn

Capricorn, the cardinal earth sign, is all about practicality in pretty much everything that they do. Capricorn is no B.S. and views relationships in a very pragmatic way. Capricorn doesn’t date for fun, they date for partnership. Capricorn takes love seriously and doesn’t mess around. They have their standards, they have their vision, and they won’t settle for less than what they want and deserve.

However, it would be wrong to assume that Capricorn doesn’t love deeply. While some may believe Capricorn’s almost business-like approach to relationships may seem cold and maybe even a little calculated, it is only because Capricorn knows the power of love when it’s right. Capricorn doesn’t want to waste time on someone who isn’t right for them when they could be spending that time in a deep and meaningful partnership. Of course, it’s far too vulnerable for the emotionally-repressed Capricorn to ever tell anyone this. Just know, deep down, they love love and crave it just like the rest of us.

3. Virgo

Like Capricorn, Virgo approaches relationships with realism. Another earth sign, Virgo is loyal and doesn’t take commitment lightly. It takes Virgo an incredibly long time to fall and their hesitation to get into relationships may make some come to the conclusion that Virgo isn’t really interested in matters of the heart. This is hardly the case, however.

Virgo is one of the most intuitive and natural lovers of the entire zodiac, but only the person Virgo loves will know this. That’s because Virgo is very private about their relationship because they hold it so sacredly. You wouldn’t know it, but Virgo would go to hell and back for their person without a second thought. Virgo is doting and caring when they’re in love, and will shower their partner with affection. While Virgo can definitely be hyper critical of others and themselves, they do look at their significant other with the utmost admiration and respect. Virgo is a hopeless romantic at heart, even if they won’t tell you themselves.
