Alright, so I decided to actually try out this whole “find your soulmate” thing for Virgos in 2025. I mean, I read the headlines and all that, but I’m the type who needs to see if it works in real life, you know?
Starting with the Basics
First thing I did was grab my laptop and a notebook. I’m old school like that. I started looking up what makes a Virgo tick in love. The articles kept talking about being practical and looking for someone with stability. So I made a list. Yeah, a real list.
- Must be reliable – no flaky people.
- Has their life somewhat together – I’m not trying to be someone’s mom.
- Appreciates the small things – because grand gestures are nice, but remembering I like my coffee a certain way is better.
Then I thought, “Okay, where do I even meet people like this?” I’m not really into the bar scene. So I downloaded a couple of those dating apps everyone talks about. I set up my profile and was super honest. I even mentioned I’m a Virgo and that I’m looking for something real, not just a fling. I figured, why not put it out there?
Putting Myself Out There
This was the hard part. I started swiping and actually reading profiles instead of just looking at pictures. If someone’s bio was just a joke or empty, I swiped left. I looked for people who mentioned hobbies, goals, anything that showed they were thinking about more than just a good time.
I matched with a few people. The conversations started okay, but I noticed my Virgo brain kicking in. I’d overanalyze every message. “Why did they use an exclamation point there? What does that emoji mean?” It was exhausting. I had to stop myself and just go with the flow a bit more.
After a week of talking to a few matches, I agreed to a coffee date. It felt safe and low-pressure. I got there early – classic Virgo – and just observed. Were they on time? How did they treat the barista? These small things told me a lot. The date was nice, but there wasn’t a big spark. I didn’t feel that “soulmate” vibe. But I didn’t get discouraged. I just marked it down as practice.
Adjusting the Approach
I realized I was maybe trying too hard to check boxes off my list. I needed to also listen to my gut. So for the next few weeks, I focused on just meeting people in everyday situations. I started going to a local bookstore on weekends, I joined a casual hiking group I found online. I wasn’t there specifically to date; I was just doing things I enjoyed.
And you know what? It worked better. I met someone in the hiking group. We just started talking about the trail, and the conversation flowed easily. No pressure. We exchanged numbers and started texting. It felt different. They were consistent, kind, and they remembered little details I told them.
We’ve been on a few dates now, and it feels… easy. It’s not perfect, because nothing is, but it feels like a good fit. It feels like the start of something that could really be a partnership.
So my big takeaway? For a Virgo looking for love, the practical list is a good starting point. It keeps you from wasting time. But you also have to get out of your own head and just experience connecting with someone. The “perfect soulmate” isn’t about finding a flawless person; it’s about finding someone whose flaws you understand and whose strengths you appreciate. And that, I found, starts by being honest about what you want and then being open to finding it in unexpected places.
