When I was a younger man, I thought astrology was totally BS. And honestly, who knows? Maybe it is, but now that I'm older it's not my fault that every Pisces meme is about me, personally! The other thing I didn't think was that this sort of relationship might be just what I need after many years of marriage. Time is a strange teacher.

So instead of a post where I earnestly explain my desire for a real (and hopefully local) connection with lots of conversation and authentic feelings and passion (which is very Pisces in its own right), I'm going to give each of you a reason to date me based on your star sign! Here goes!

Aries - Sometimes my bubbly optimism is the cheerleading you crave and sometimes your directness is what I need to snap me back into reality. Aries are often hard on the outside, but I can nurture your soft interior.

Taurus - Both of us are sensual creatures and there are bound to be fireworks. Your earthy energy will ground me and my energetic fluidity can pull you free of any ruts you might find yourself in. You value consistency and there is nothing more consistent than the attention of a Pisces man!

Gemini - You might be manic and a mile a minute, I can slow down and help you enjoy the moment. We both are passionate about our work and our interests and eventually that passion will be for each other. Pisces are multifaceted and mutable enough to keep your shifting interest, try it!

Cancer - My best friend tells me I need to date a cancer, and I can't disagree! We share intuition and empathy, and the consistent, excited energy I bring is exactly what you need to feel trust.

Leo - Fire and water! I'm close with many Leos already in my personal life, so I know this dynamic well. You might feel worried that going outside your comfort zone will bruise your ego, but I'm here to invite you into the new and I'll catch you when you fall.

Virgo - Intellectual fireworks with this one. I bring my not-very-pisces logical side, but I'll still help you loosen up and let your hair down while you help me work through my chaotic schedule. You show me the details and I can help you see the big picture.

Libra - We are both lovers and feelers of the highest degree. I am not one to withhold praise, I'll tell you just how beautiful you are. We are both giving in attention and affection and we'll be sure not to leave the other feeling underappreciated. I've dated Libras before and it is a relationship as comfy as your favorite hoodie.

Scorpio - Water signs share intuition and fluidity, but my open vulnerability will help put away your shield. My supportive nature will be a ballast in your many endeavors, and you will inspire me to go beyond myself in new and interesting ways.

Sagittarius - My mercurial nature will follow well with your varied interests. I want to hear all about them! I can share my latest fixation and we can obsess over each other. I want to get to know you to your fullest: Mind, body and soul! 

Capricorn - Your down to earth and practical nature is what I need when I get too much into my own head, but my empathy can help draw out emotions you are uncomfortable sharing directly. We both love watching people and what they do and pulling insight from others' interactions. You will help me see the world for what it is, but I'll help you see what it could be.

Aquarius - We both want to bring down the system and share in a dreamy intellectual romance, reading philosophy and poetry behind enemy lines. We both want a better world, and with my optimism and your realism maybe we can build it together. I know you aren't ghosting me, you just need time to yourself, I'll be here when you get back. Bonus that I've always had incredible sexual energy with Aquarii!

Pisces - All the feelings times two. We can barricade ourselves in our own little world to escape from the mundanity of the day-to-day. Mutual reassurances for everyone! It can be complex with mirrored emotions, but sometimes empaths need someone else to tell them what they're thinking.

If any of this resonates with you (or if you want to argue with my extremely simplistic interpretation of your zodiac sign) you should message me.
