Okay, so you wanna know how I tried to snag a Virgo man? Buckle up, it’s a bumpy ride, but hopefully, my trials and errors can help you out!
Phase 1: The Research (aka Stalking… kinda)
- First things first, I started with the basics. What are Virgos supposed to be like? I Googled, I read articles, I even watched some questionable YouTube videos. The consensus? Organized, practical, intelligent, and detail-oriented. Oh, and they love cleanliness. Great. My apartment was a disaster.
- Then, I did some actual digging on him. I scrolled through his social media (don’t judge!), paid attention to what he talked about with friends, and what kind of activities he enjoyed. Noticed he’s into hiking and reading non-fiction. Noted!
Phase 2: Operation “Become Interesting and Tidy”
- Alright, time to put the research into action. Signed up for a hiking group. I’m more of a Netflix-and-chill kinda gal, but hey, gotta branch out, right? Turns out, hiking isn’t so bad!
- Started reading some of the books he mentioned liking. Found a really fascinating one on ancient history. Actually enjoyed it! Who knew?
- And the toughest part? Cleaned my apartment. Top to bottom. Scrubbed, dusted, organized. It was exhausting. But worth it, I hoped.
Phase 3: The Encounter
- The “chance” encounter. Strategically positioned myself at the hiking meetup he’d be at. Acted casual, like I wasn’t totally planning this.
- Sparked up a conversation. Asked him about his favorite hiking trails. Mentioned the book I was reading. Tried to sound intelligent and engaging.
- Here’s where things got tricky. Virgos can be hard to read. He was polite, attentive, but not exactly throwing himself at me. Stayed cool, didn’t push it. Just focused on having a good conversation.
Phase 4: The Follow-Up
- Didn’t bombard him with texts. Waited a couple of days. Sent a short, thoughtful message referencing our conversation about hiking. Something like, “Hey, that trail you mentioned was really interesting. I might check it out this weekend!”
- He responded! We chatted a bit more. Kept the conversation light and engaging. Didn’t overshare or come on too strong.
Phase 5: The Date
- Finally, he asked me out! Suggested a quiet cafe for coffee. Perfect.
- The date went well! We talked for hours about everything and nothing. He seemed genuinely interested in what I had to say. And I, of course, continued to showcase my newfound tidiness and intellectual prowess. (Okay, maybe I exaggerated a little).
So, did it work?
Well…sort of. We went on a few more dates. He’s a great guy – smart, funny, and considerate. But ultimately, we weren’t a perfect match. He was very detail-oriented, and I’m… well, let’s just say I’m more of a “big picture” person.
The Takeaway:
- The research helped me get his attention, definitely. Knowing his interests and values gave me a starting point.
- Being genuine is key. Don’t try to be someone you’re not. He’ll see right through it.
- Virgos appreciate effort and thoughtfulness. Show him you care, but don’t be overbearing.
- And most importantly, be yourself! If you’re not compatible, it’s better to find out sooner rather than later.
Good luck with your Virgo! And remember, even if it doesn’t work out, you might just discover a new hobby (like hiking!) or a cleaner apartment along the way.
