If you were born between August 23 and September 22, congratulations! You’re probably a dedicated, driven, and hard-working person – otherwise known as a Virgo. While all Virgos share similarities, differences arise across the genders. Specifically, Virgo men have certain cooperative actions that make them great leaders while also great lovers.
How Do You Know if You or Someone Else is a Virgo Man?
Most men don’t keep up with horoscopes. If that sounds like you, here are some qualities that you can use to identify a Virgo in yourself or other people.
Calm and Agreeable
Virgo men have great problem solving and rational thinking, making them an excellent peacemaker. He’s friendly, witty, and can use his playful banter to defuse serious situations, such as someone crying or raging.
It’s his nature to be a knight in shining armor and to help people when they are down. He’s in touch with himself and his surrounding, and can sense when things are wrong and need to be fixed.
The Dependable Guy
Because of his calm, helpful demeanor, it’s no surprise that Virgo men are the guy you can call to give you a ride home, help you move, or aid you in whatever activity you need. He tries to help anyone he can, whether it be a homeless person on the street or a big wig businessman. He’s a kind soul and tries to help out his fellow man however he can.
The Man of Mercury
Because of his sign, a Virgo man is gentle and sympathetic. He’s logical, grounded, and pragmatic, but that doesn’t mean he won’t have lofty daydreams he fantasizes over.
Due to his Virgo nature, he’s a perfectionist and is always on time. Therefore, he expects the same from other people. His living spaces are as orderly as his mental space, and you can expect extreme cleanliness and hygiene from him.
This doesn’t mean that when things pile up, he’s not prone to the occasional messy room or stacked dishes in the sink. No matter what, Virgo men can create order from chaos, and will be patient when things get hairy.
The Wandering Soul
Earth signs find it hard to stay in one place for long, and Virgos are no exception. They want to see this world, and given how empathetic and caring Virgo men are, they want to experience the most diverse groups of people they can.
Because of his affinity to the earth, he also cares about the environment, forbidding people to litter or pollute whenever he can. He’s an advocate for a greener world, and will probably be biking, buying sustainable products, or at least telling people why they should care more about the environment.
What’s It Like to Love a Virgo Man?
For starters, your home will never be messy. Virgo men are known for their organization patterns and arrangement skills, meaning your home with him will look like it’s off a TV or movie set.
He also has a palate for rich, exotic tastes. He enjoys fine dining and expensive wines, which means if you’re a Stouffer’s lasagna kind of person, your tastes might make you two too incompatible.
Keep an open mind with your Virgo man, and you’ll see a very loving guy. Should you decide to raise a family with him, he’ll take on the teaching role and show his child all the cool things the world has to offer, like butterflies or how clouds work.
He’ll have his moments of being cold and lacking affection, but he’ll make a genuine effort to bond with his children and show his utmost love for them.
In true dad-form, a Virgo man likes building with their hands, and so they might have a tool shed they need to go into to have some personal time and tinker with things. Let him go off and build. His alone time recharges him enough to let be a more present, aware person when you are around him again.
Because Virgo men are intelligent, caring and problem solving, they end up falling for younger people who admire the Virgo man’s experience and mental prowess. However, because of the age difference, it’s importance to find balance in personal boundaries and living arrangements, among other things.
Virgo men will rarely try to express public displays of affection with you in public, aside from an innocent hand hold or hug here and there. He’ll be faithful once a formal commitment has been made, but he might try to keep your relationship a secret until then.
His old-fashioned courtship preferences might put you off at first, but they can seem modest and even charming when done right. And hey, his modesty might be an attempt to cover up some secret kinks he might have. But you’ll have to win his heart over before you get that far with him.
How Are Virgo Men in Bed?
Because Virgo men like to build, they like to use their hands (wink wink). He will take his time to make sure you’re getting enough pleasure first before he becomes involved, making it a fair divide between your and his sexual satisfaction.
Virgo men approach sex in a methodical way. Because he’s a perfectionist, he might overthink things and get too caught up in his head. Open communication will be necessary to assuage any thoughts or anxiety he has during sex. While he’s thinking about your pleasure, he might not be thinking about his own, so take a moment to check in with him.
Once he’s comfortable, then things will go smoothly. When his inner passions are unlocked, you might be surprised at the vigor in which he expresses his lust for you. Because of his Earth sign, he might be prone to having raunchy sexual interests or fantasies.
His attention to detail means he’ll be a skilled and competent lover. Once you’ve gotten him out of his shell, you’re going to be glad you got him into your bed.
Who is Compatible With Virgo Men?
The phrase “opposites attract” really applies to the Virgo man. He enjoys wild and carefree personality traits in other people since they’re things he finds repressed in himself.
He’s most compatible with Cancer, Taurus, Scorpio, and Capricorn. However, he’s compatible with more than just Sun signs. You won’t convince him to be with you if you’re beautiful alone.
While you don’t need fancy clothes or jewelry to show off your money, you need to show him you care and are a compassionate person – something Virgo men cherish deeply about themselves and other people. A Virgo man likes his partners to be confident, independent, and stable. Looks matter less to him than the character you have.
Virgo men will try to get to know you before asking you out. He’s not the kind to fall in love at first sight, but use his initial interest in you to spark conversations and build romantic chemistry. Only after he sees you’re intelligent, caring, and reliable will he try to ask you out to a movie or dinner.
Here Are Some Great Qualities of Virgo Men
Ever wondered where your sock went or where you left your keys? The Virgo man will probably know because of his incredible attention to detail. He’s critical, precise, and exact. His perfectionism means he does a good job on any task he’s assigned the first time, making his community or workplace better for it.
He’s sensible and concerned about how things could go wrong, so he’s level-headed and often seen as the leader of a group. He’s also efficient, hardworking and can usually think his way out of a problem.
He’s also incredibly caring. Virgo men understand how to work for a greater good, and feel a sense of duty to be stewards to the earth and other people. He’s the guy that got Employee of the Month five times in a row or had sparkling letters of recommendation in high school or college. Giving to others gives him joy, so he gives often and generously.
A Virgo man is the kind of guy to blush at a sex scene in a movie or shy away from friends who want him to go to a strip club. This doesn’t mean that he doesn’t enjoy sex or has healthy sexual desires.
It’s just that modesty and purity are in his nature, and he doesn’t need to consume gratuitous sex to make him feel like a man. His caring nature prevents him from doing that, and so he is humble and private about his sexual urges.
Because his sign is ruled by Mercury, he’s full of mental and physical energy. His mind bursts with ideas of how to improve the settings around him or even himself. He’s prone to go on self-improvement binges that sometimes stick, sometimes don’t. Whatever the case is, the Virgo man tries to be the best person he can be to the people around him.
Here Are Not-So-Great Qualities of Virgo Men
Although they’re known for their patience and caring, Virgo men can be blunt and callous. Sometimes, especially if they’ve had bad experiences in the past, they can use their charm for dishonest purposes.
And because they sometimes go for younger partners, the age difference can put a strain on the relationship, since the older Virgo man is usually more experienced, wealthier, and more secure than his younger partner. The relationship may be skewed in an unequal power balance than can threaten the relationship’s longevity.
Worse, the relationship may be founded on titillation and enjoyment of the age difference (older man, beautiful young partner) that can cause it to fail.
No matter what age he dates, the Virgo man might lack the confidence to pursue his ambitions. Even if he does have the guts, he might shoot too high and invest too much of himself too quickly into his dream, burning himself out and never actually attaining what he set out to do.
Virgo men are often their worst critics and can be cruel to themselves. It stems from their perfectionism – they take any mistake or error they make personally, denigrating themselves for their “stupidity.” If you know a Virgo like this, you might have to constantly reassure him about his competency and his skills, and that he is not his mistakes.
When he’s not chastising himself, he’s often overly worried about what other people are thinking of him. He’s a worrier, and if he’s not able to keep up with his unachievable standards, he thinks other people think just as lowly as him. He worries he won’t finish a task properly, so he might become too dominant in a team project to make sure he doesn’t look bad.
This will inevitably cause him to step on some toes, though he’s an inherently caring person. He’ll try to fix the situation, but his anxiety will get the best of him sometimes.
He may come off as neurotic, but his intentions are ultimately for the greater good of those around him. If you know a Virgo man, try to tell him everything is going to be okay. Once he calms down, he’ll be the same charming, caring, intelligent Virgo you know and love.
