Do people look for astrology/numerology matches when seeking for a partner?

Question

etc, horoscope, life path, Chinese zodiac

Do I look at it? Yes, as sometimes (not always) a person's sign is a good indicator of how we may or may not match up. Does it mean I follow it? Absolutely not!

I might ask a guy his sign and compare it to mine just to see how our personalities match up. For example, I'm a Cancer. Last guy I liked was a Leo? Technically we're not compatible for whatever reason (fire/water sign... too much spark or whatever; I don't recall). Still tried to give him a chance.

... it did not work out, lol. Same concept applied to like every other guy I liked. My ex was a Cancer; apparently two Cancers are like oil and water. But I still gave said guys a chance and didn't let astrology control who I like and want to date. Though in retrospect, I probably should considering my past luck, haha.

All those things are really crap. It’s funny that people who can be really religious believe in a pagan type belief. On top of which they have no merit. Here is a fun experiment. Take the astrology and numerology bios and switch them. You’ll notice that they describe just about anybody and everybody. So just like a fortune cookie they’ll tell you what you want to hear.

I find that to be a superstition.

If you get the conditions for love right, sort yourself out and straighten yourself up, the right person will appear.

Most of it is logistics (apart from mutual attraction and shared goals/similar desires).

Lots of people do get involved to derail such plans and progress for whatever reason - some to offload, some because they are deviant or promoters/dealers of drugs - some, like the clubbing industry, because they make money on desperation and promiscuity - happily married people don't visit them, only the ones thinking there is something to be found in drugs.

I never really say I put much stock in it, or am a true believer. But I do find it fun, and honestly looking back on a lot of my personal experiences I can't say astrology got it wrong.

In the end, I say I think it's really fun and not a perfect science... but as a fire sign I do get excited when I find an air sign.

Look for no but I do find it interesting. My best relationship was pisces leo and I always have been fond of leos but at the same time the websites say that is supposed to be a bad match which in reality was very far from the truth.

The more interesting one was life path numbers since we both had 6.

The one I like most is MBTI since that one is an actual personality test instead of just a prediction. In my case it was an INFJ and ENFJ matchup.

So based on the best relationship I ever had which I deem a near perfect relationship the astrology sites were wrong, numerology aligned in it being the same life path together and MBTI was spot on since I once took the test pretending to be my ideal partner and the fictional partner also scores ENFJ.

I certainly would never want to have a virgo or a Aries or a gemini or an aquarius as my girlfriend, nor as my wife. I read about astrology, numerology and about torsion physics, but out of these three things I only consider astrology and torsion physics to be essential in my determination process if I will date someone or not. I think numerology is important too, but I think it's not essential when you chose dating someone or not, but what I focus on the most is "HOW DO I FEEL! IN THE PRESENCE OF A GIRL, MILF OR WOMAN?" If the feeling is bad: I RUN, if the feeling is good, I stay but I still try to find out if she is really who she seems she is or if she is pretending to be like that and if she is evil/I'm giving my best to find out if she has BORDERLINE and/or SOCIOPATHY and/or NARCISSISM and/or PSYCHOPATHY and in many or most cases the girls and women and milfs that like me show borderline and/or narcissistic symptoms/traits.

TenderFantasy · Answer

Well not really. I went off more on if I was initially attracted, same goals, etc. like Gibbons44 said. If I had time or I think it would be fun, then yes, I would look, but I don't know if I really believe in it. It's hard to say. It could be true, but then, a lot of the times they tell me (as an Aries), things that I am, when I am the FARTHEST from that lol. Besides, are there really only 12 personalities? Anyway, good question!

petitedollbabee · Answer

I like to know peoples zodiac signs etc because I’m curious, but it never determines whether I date them or not. Just because something looks good or bad on paper doesn’t mean it’s good or bad when put into practice. I met a guy a couple years ago who had the perfect matches to my zodiac sign, yet things never worked out with us. And my partner now, has zodiac signs that shouldn’t be compatible with my own on paper, yet we have a great relationship.

genericname85 · Answer

of course not. since this snakeoil is made to apply to pretty much everyone, narcissists don't realize it's not a personal thing really. they only care about having their ego stroked and feeling like being told something about themself.

i stay away from people who unironically refer to astrology and such bullshit, cause there is a good chance they are either a narcissist or cognitively impaired.

jorfan3 · Answer

For me personally, the Meyers-Briggs Type Indicator was a sign Patrick was the right one. I'm an ENFP, he is an INTJ. I like it better because it uses psychology, not some hocus pocus.

DizzyDesii · Answer

Not intentionally. It crosses my mind when there are problems in the relationship and i think to myself “well you’re a ___ so no wonder you think/act this way”

JustinTheGreat · Answer

Some people do. I like astrology and I’ve definitely looked up other peoples signs and read if we’re compatible or not. But I really only do it for fun. I don’t use it to make decisions in my life

DarkCarousel · Answer

Yes, I think some people do.  I don’t. But I’ve noticed that I really get along with scorpios. Just seems common.

catiecatie · Answer

Well my crush and I are both Pisces. We are literally a month apart for each other. Hoping that there’s a chance. Fingers crossed everyone!

DancingQueen16 · Answer

I don't even though a website I looked at says that a Capricorn and Pisces work well together in a relationship I don't really believe in that kind of stuff

whereismyjohnny · Answer

Some do. Some look it up just because they are curious and for fun, but there are people who take it seriously 😬

kellytheman · Answer

Most girls do believe those kind things more than men which oksy. I think astrology like horoscopes or zodiac signs are fine but more than that like using a tarot card or can predict the future is maybe feel it not real or a scam.

BJP21 · Answer

There is some truth to it, but not absolute. Id say its a good place to start if dating someone. I dated a Cancer and because Im a Sagittarius low and behold we broke up. Astrologically we are enemies.

mattclark242 · Answer

sometime yes but they all say happy things all the time I use it make me feel happy I don't know if it real or not.

OfMiceandMen · Answer

It is not something I ever referred to. I tend to go on the fate premise.

TheVigilantFox · Answer

I don’t believe in all that rubbish, if I like a person I will date them if I don’t then I won’t.

LiamJHayden · Answer

Some do. I don't. I know my sign. Probably would not know yours if you told me your birthdate, nor do I know with whom I am allegedly supposed to be most compatible, nor do I care.

Chthou95 · Answer
