As an individual with Venus in Virgo, you are so busy analyzing your partner, weighing up the pros and cons of the relationship, and thinking of new ways to improve it, that you can forget to relax and enjoy the relationship. You cannot rest until every bug is ironed out and every imperfection corrected, for the ‘perfect relationship’ is your Holy Grail, and you will go to the ends of the earth to try to find it. This is where Venus in Virgos split into two distinct camps – which group do you belong to?
Group One: you try to improve your partner, settle for what is left, and end up being incredibly loyal and dependable in relationships.
Group Two: you leave your less than perfect mate and move on – and on and on … looking for perfection on a stick elsewhere.
With Venus in Virgo, once you have chosen Mr. or Ms. Perfect, you expect them to live up to their title, and any flaw or minor misdemeanor will be brought to their immediate attention – for your mission is to make them perfect. And you set very high standards. Prospective partners of a Venus in Virgo beware – being rude, crude and sloppy are definitely not ways to their heart.
Having Venus in Virgo, you appreciate kindness, punctuality and courtesy at all times. You can initially be shy and undemonstrative in love (especially if your Sun is in Virgo too) but, given time and encouragement, you are warm and giving, and will tenderly care for your partner through good times and bad. You need your love to be constantly changing, growing and improving. If you feel your partner is not putting the necessary time and effort into the relationship, you will leave without regret and look for that commitment elsewhere.
Additional Information on Men with Venus in Virgo
Venus in Virgo men are usually attracted to earthy, practical women with one or more planets in Virgo (or Capricorn and Taurus, which are the other earth signs). As a Venus in Virgo man, you appreciate a woman who is intelligent and discriminating, with a disciplined approach to life. Don’t let her efficiency overwhelm you, and don’t take the easy way out and let her take on all the responsibilities (and worries) of the relationship.
You and Venus in Aries
Venus in Virgo’s modesty and refined reserve are enormously attractive (and foreign!) to a Venus in Aries. You share a love of exercising and the great outdoors, but their addiction to adventure and risk scares you, while your perfectionism and attention to detail can drive them away.
