Aries x Taurus – Fire + Earth = Lava
The Good: Venus and Mars, as they say, are supposed to sync up well together. When this energy is manifested into guys, the results can be deliciously sociological. Aries men are active and aggressive. Taurus men, even if they know they want something, are more likely to let things come to them. Since these men are both relentless in their determination, when they like each other, they go hard. The Aries is the big, strong personality that Taurus boys secretly like. The Taurus boy can bring out the tender side of an Aries heart. They both like sex and sensuality, and so to them their relationship becomes one steamy, hot porno. Taurus can ground an Aries as well as keep up the stabilizing factors of the partnership. Aries acts as a defender and guardian figure...at least on the physical front. Taurus anchors Aries emotions, especially when he gets too out of control.
The Bad: But these positive qualities can also come with plenty of negative connotations as well. The Taurus boy is frustrated by Aries always having to go out and be active. Sometimes he just wants his man to cuddle up at home. The Aries hates when he's pulled back and tied down too restrictively. The Taurus sees this as flightiness and neglect. The Aries sees this as passive aggression. God help their hearts if another boy comes along, or even worse, between them. Men born under signs of horned animals are natural born challengers and fighters, and Aries and Taurus will fight often and intensely. But Taurus always has the last say. Since neither of them are all that great at discussing their emotions, a lot of these arguments come from lack of communication. Both of them need to learn to not be afraid of their inner selves, because a true relationship cannot sustain itself without showing the inner emotions to the other partner.
The Sexy: In any case, they have sex a lot. Taurus boys love to be worshiped and lavished in bed, as befits their connection to the fertility God, Adonis. Aries just like to put it in anything with a pulse, as well as to dominate and conquer. Taurus can take it, as well as bottom from the top. And Aries just needs someone with endurance who can well...endure. Sexually, it's a very complimentary match, provided the Taurus boy is willing to spice things up now and then.
Aries x Virgo – Fire + Plant = Brushfire
The Good: It makes sense that two boys that are so fucking snarky would do well together. Aries boys like challenges as well as men who won't back down from their superiority. This is just fine with Virgo, who loves a challenge and better yet, being proven right. When a Virgo boy trumps an Aries at a battle of wits, the Aries may feign a pout but on the inside he's probably getting the biggest mental hard-on ever. This is what attracts the two, the fact that they are so good at being each other's outlet. They are both naturally driven, unrelenting characters who aren't afraid to call out the world on its occasional bullshit. They are a tough tag-team, even to the point of occasional meanness. This is not so for each other, because even if one or the other doesn't know their limits, they never end up doing any real emotional damage because they both fundamentally know that they care about each other's feelings. They would just never DARE show it.
The Bad: And that's where some of the problems arise. It is very hard for either of these men to ever admit they are wrong. And yet, when someone screws up in this match, no damage can be healed until one relents to the other. Neither of the two are out to get at each other, or even undermine the other's authority. They are way too equal playing field for that. The Aries boy should learn to leave the organization and planning skills to the Virgo, who will use his boyfriend initiative and support as fuel. When they have learned to channel each other's drives, this relationship will be on the right track again.
The Sexy: In bed, the Aries, normally full-throttle force, realizes that sex is a pure act. This is the gift of a Virgo (hey Beyonce, I just name-checked your song). That is to say, to awaken people to where aspects of life should be pure. Sex, which Aries has been perceiving as this one mode of emotion, now becomes a new experience, a mutual benefiting act of love or respect. The Virgo, pure as he is, is no flower, and can take and then temper the Aries drive. Dominance and wrestling is usually a favorite of these two, even if it's more the playful school-boy variety than the hard-core S/M role play. They should just be careful not to injure the other accidentally. Neither of them ever really know their own strength...
Aries x Capricorn – Fire + Metal = Hot Iron
The Good: Aries is brawn, Capricorn is brain, but both are all about being dominate. When they meet, they see a worthy opponent in each other. Both of these signs have horns, and creatures with horns like to clash. Their inner monologues at first, are probably the exact same as the other's: “Ugh, is SO annoying...I must fuck him.” And then they do. And then they realize they have a lot more in common than once thought. For one, they are both ambitious and challenging characters. They encourage this in each other, as well as success. They also both love the traditional forms of love and dating, as cliché as they are (and they both probably don't realize it). The are devoted to each other to a fault when they are in love.
The Bad: The problem is that their energies work against each other. Capricorn likes to restrict himself and others as a way of life and caution. Aries likes to charge full speed ahead. This gives Capricorn a headache, and neither boy will relent to the other. They both love to be right, but at levels more deranged than the Virgo x Aries pairing. Their fights are insufferable and unrelenting. Equally bad is if they see one or the other as the “man” or “woman” in the relationship. This highly archaic way of thinking is detrimental to not just the entirety of the gay community, but their relationship itself.
The Sexy: The Aries boy likes to see what Capricorn, such a stuffed-shirt outside, is like in the bedroom. He's surprised and delighted to find out that the boy is a dirty sex freak in the sack. He will try to push these boundaries further. Their need to dominate each other should result in more than a few sparks. It's a pretty hot combo, and surprisingly kinky. Whatever those kinks are is ultimately up to the couple, but rest assured, they won't be boring in the bedroom until Capricorn falls into a routine. Aries won't let him.
