Some zodiac signs tend to be a bit more impulsive than others.
Of course, there’s no way that being born on a specific date determines everything about your personality (or even anything, really), but on the surface, there do seem to be some uncanny traits that each of the star signs share. Suspend your scientific disbelief for a bit and go with me here — you might be surprised at how accurate this list seems. Here’s how each of the signs rank in terms of their impulsiveness in the romance department.
1. Aries: The Impulse Proposer
Aries sometimes treat engagements like they’re impulse buying a chocolate bar at the checkout. One moment of passion and suddenly, they’re down on one knee, probably in the middle of a paintball game. They’re all about that ‘seize the day’ life, even if ‘the day’ involves a lifetime commitment.
2. Taurus: The Slow and Steady Suitor

3. Gemini: The Flip-Flopping Fiancé
Geminis are as consistent with engagements as British weather. One day they’re googling rings, the next they’re swearing off marriage forever. Dating a Gemini is an emotional roller coaster — exciting, but exhausting. Better keep that return policy on the ring, just in case.
4. Cancer: The Cautious Committer
Cancers treat engagement with extreme caution and a lot of sweating. They’ll need to feel more secure than Fort Knox before even thinking about popping the question. Patience is key here, people. A lot of patience.
5. Leo: The Spotlight Seeker
For Leos, it’s not just about the engagement — it’s about the show. Expect flash mobs, fireworks, and possibly a small orchestra. They’re not just saying “Will you marry me?” they’re saying “Will you star in this viral video with me?” I hope you’re camera-ready!
6. Virgo: The Analytical Affianced

7. Libra: The Romantic Rusher

8. Scorpio: The Passionate Procrastinator

9. Sagittarius: The Adventure-Seeking Asker

10. Capricorn: The Pragmatic Proposer

11. Aquarius: The Unconventional Uniter
Aquarians don’t just think outside the box with engagements — they’ve forgotten the box exists. They might propose with a mood ring or suggest getting matching tattoos instead. Traditional? No. Memorable? Absolutely.
12. Pisces: The Dreamy Decision-Maker
Pisces live with one foot in a romantic fantasy, which means they might confuse a particularly vivid daydream for a long-term relationship. They’ll be planning an underwater wedding ceremony before realising they haven’t actually met their soulmate yet. Reality check, please!
