Virgo Love November 2024 Journey
Got coffee, grabbed my notebook. First Saturday this month, totally blank. Thought okay, gonna actually use this Virgo energy everyone talks about. Felt weird just sitting there, you know? Needed a plan.
Started simple. Literally opened the Notes app on my phone. Wrote down three things I absolutely need in a partner. No fluff. Like, “actually listens when I talk” and “has their own hobbies, not just glued to me.” Stuff that matters.
Next part? Oh man. Made a new dating profile. Decided to stop using those old pics from two vacations ago. Took a couple new ones right then. Selfie in decent light, smiling for real this time. Felt kinda stupid doing it, but clicked ‘Upload’. Also re-wrote my bio. Ditched the funny-but-fake stuff. Wrote what I actually like doing – reading bad sci-fi novels, trying baking recipes that always flop. Simple.
Set the profile active. Nerves kicked in. Okay Virgo season, show me something. Actually tried this strategy: instead of just swiping on everyone I kinda liked, I stopped. Forced myself to read profiles. Saw one guy wrote he loves hiking AND watching historical documentaries. Felt like a match vibe. Sent him a message about a trail I bombed last fall. Felt way better than just a “Hey”.
Realized I was doing that Virgo overthink thing. Spending hours looking at tiny details on profiles? Yeah. So. Moving on. Decided Thursday night I needed out of the house. Saw this pottery painting cafe nearby. Went by myself. Almost chickened out at the door. Walked in. Saw a few people looking relaxed. Grabbed some ugly mug to paint. Just focused on that. Didn’t talk to anyone. But felt… active? Not just scrolling on the couch.
Reflection week happened. Old habits died hard. Was tempted to message an ex. You know, that boring “how are you” text? Stopped myself. Opened my notebook instead. Reminded myself why it ended. Wrote: “No Settling.”
Biggest November win? This coffee date. Saturday afternoon. Felt casual. My Virgo brain went into observation mode. Did he look like his pics? Mostly. Did he ask questions? Yeah, actually. Was it earth-shattering? Nah. But no red flags either. Planned a second one. We’re gonna try that hiking trail I mentioned.
Virgo Practical Steps I Learned
- Write down the non-negotiables first thing. Gets it out of your head.
- Update your dating profile photos THIS WEEK. No ancient pics hiding.
- Message about something specific IN THEIR PROFILE. Skip “Hey”.
- Go somewhere simple alone once a week. Cafe, park bench, bookstore.
- Stop over-researching potential matches. Stalking profiles is useless.
- Notice how they make you feel. Not just what they look like.
Yeah it felt kinda awkward doing this Virgo ‘love plan’ thing. But honestly? Felt way better than just hoping something happens. Less lonely.
