Where This Whole Thing Started
So yeah, back in like early 2016, I was sitting around bored on a Tuesday night. Scrolling through old crap online, trying to find anything interesting, y’know? Stumbled across this headline screaming about Virgo 2016 love compatibility. Total clickbait, honestly. But hey, I’m a Virgo, bored, and maybe a little lonely? Figured why the hell not, might as well see what the stars reckon for my love life that year. Waste a bit of time.
My Messy Process & How I Did It
First step? Grabbed my trusty notebook – the one I scribble random thoughts in. Needed somewhere to dump this info. Then I hit up a bunch of different astrology sites. Remember, this was 2016, so sites were kinda clunky. Searched stuff like “Virgo 2016 compatibility,” “best matches for Virgos 2016,” “Virgo love horoscope signs.” Tried to find the most popular guides everyone was probably reading back then.
My plan was simple but took ages:
- Looked up the Virgo description first. You know, the usual: practical, analytical, worries too much, wants perfection.
- Then I hunted down the 2016 specific predictions for Virgo love. Talked about finding stability, maybe older partners, less drama. Supposedly a good year for commitment if things felt solid.
- Here’s the big bit: I started listing other signs one by one to see who Virgo was supposed to click with best in 2016. Wrote down the compatibility score or description for each sign from several different sources.
- Taurus? Kept seeing that name pop up. “Earth sign connection!” Steady, reliable romance potential. Top contender.
- Capricorn? Another earth sign. “Ambitious partners, shared goals.” Seemed logical, got high scores.
- Cancer? Water sign. “Emotional depth meets practicality.” Not always easy, but some sites rated it highly for 2016 specifically.
- Pisces? More water. “Dreamy, needs grounding.” Supposedly tricky but potentially rewarding if Virgo chilled out. Mixed reviews across sites though.
- Then the less-good ones: Leos? Too loud. Sagittarius? Maybe too flighty. Aries? Big potential for clashes. Gemini? Communication overload or something.
- Made my own stupid little charts with pluses and minuses in the notebook. Looked like a kid did it.
Basically spent hours going site-to-site, jotting it all down, trying to see if they agreed. Spoiler alert: They didn’t all agree!
The Big Disappointment & What Actually Happened
Okay, so after all that scribbling and comparing, what was the big takeaway for Virgo 2016 love matches?
It was a mess. Seriously.
Every site had slightly different rankings and reasons. Taurus came up a LOT. Capricorn usually high too. But then Cancer would be top on one site and middle on another. Pisces was either “soulmate potential” or “proceed with caution” depending on who you asked! Nobody seemed truly consistent about the “best” matches beyond the earth signs.
And the logic? All super vague stuff like “communication is key” or “find common ground.” Gee, thanks, Captain Obvious! Couldn’t tell if the advice was for 2016 or just life in general.
The worst part? I tried paying attention to this stuff throughout the year. Chatting to a Taurus? Nice, sure, but no fireworks. Met a Capricorn? Focused, yeah, but we bored each other stiff. That Cancer guy? Way too moody for me, couldn’t deal. That whole “older, stable partner” vibe? Didn’t materialize at all.
Honestly? My 2016 love life was… non-existent. Still zero boyfriends by the end of December. All that research and comparison? Total waste of time. The compatibility guides felt random, confusing, and ultimately useless for actual dating.
After All This, My Stupid Conclusion
Looking back on that old notebook now makes me laugh. The effort was real, but the result was pure nonsense. Star signs might be a fun conversation starter, maybe for self-reflection, but relying on “best matches” from some generic 2016 guide? Hell no. Finding someone has way more to do with luck, timing, how you actually talk to people, and putting yourself out there – not some predetermined list based on birthday months.
You want my real advice learned from that dumb experiment? Talk to actual people. Flirt awkwardly. Deal with real connections and rejections. Forget the signs for a sec. That astrology compatibility stuff? It was a fun little project to satisfy my Virgo need for analysis, but it led nowhere near real love. Just another distraction I documented for my readers to laugh at. Waste-of-time nonsense, but hey, I pulled this crap so you don’t have to!
