You might say something like, “You are hands-down the hottest guy in this room! I feel so lucky to be here with you. " You could also try, “How are you so good at bowling!? Normally, I’d be upset about losing, but you look so cute when you bowl a strike. . . " One of the worst things you can do to a Leo is withhold affection. Your man needs to be noticed and his pride simply can’t handle being rebuffed.

Hold his hand, hug him, and kiss his cheek in public Run your fingers through his hair on the dance floor Caress his ears and scratch his chin affectionately in private

Make an effort to surprise him. For example, ask him to share one of his fantasies and find a way to indulge him. Leos are typically dominant in the bedroom, but once you gain his trust, don’t shy away from taking the reins every now and then.

That said, if you happen to make more money than him, try not to flaunt it too much.

For example, if he invites you to a party or event, make sure he knows you’re super excited about it. Dress to the nines and enjoy yourself—he’ll love it.

If he asks you to share your thoughts or opinions, be an open book. Tread carefully when it comes to criticism, though. Leos can be sensitive in that respect. For example, instead of saying, “That orange shirt doesn’t suit you at all,” try something more tactful like, “I really love that blue button-down. You look so handsome in it! Will you wear it for me tonight?”

For example, if you’re chatting in a group and the conversation rolls around to something your man is good at, encourage him to talk about it. You could say, “You know, Robert is so good at chess. He used to compete! Bob, tell everyone about your time as a chess champion. . . ”

For example, he’d prefer to plan most of your dates and outings. If you try to plan a surprise date for him, he might fret about details or feel a bit emasculated. He needs to know where you’re going, how you’re getting there, and so on. If you’re at a restaurant that he’s familiar with, ask him for entree or wine suggestions. You could even ask him to order for you.

For example, you might say, “Derek, have you thought about asking the CEO for a promotion? You’re basically running that department and you have been for months. I think you should go for it. ” Or, “You’re woodworking skills are incredible. Have you considering making this a full-time career? You have the talent to do that, I’m sure of it. ”

Keep your gaze fixed on him no matter how many cute guys are in the room Shower him with plenty of attention (especially in social situations) Reject any guy that approaches you without hesitation

For example, if you’re arguing about directions, avoid saying, “I’ve been to this restaurant before and I’m certain you took the wrong exit. ” Instead, go with, “We can take this exit if you’re sure. I trust your sense of direction. I’ll check my map app in the meantime just in case, though. ”
