Libra's Best Romantic Compatibility
Compatibility of any kind is based on astrology's elements. Libra, the cardinal air sign, is most compatible with fire signs and air signs and least compatible with earth and water. It could be said that the way to a Libra's heart is through spontaneous adventures (fire signs) and intelligent conversations (air signs).
Libra and Aries
A Libra and Aries match can have a love affair that's fiery and passionate. Libra is irresistibly drawn to Aries's "go get it way" of living. Aries is easily seduced by Libra's intelligence and charm. Their differences add spice and passion to their relationship. It's the "tension of the opposites" that produces the passion that sustains, deepens, and enlivens an Aries/Libra relationship.
Libra and Leo
When someone is courageous and a bit dramatic, they're likely to catch a Libra's eye. A Libra and Leo couple is the love and romance connoisseur of the zodiac. When Libra and Leo fall in love, each will be the center of the other's attention. There will be parties, fun nights out on the town, elegant, intimate dinners, and passionate sex. A Leo and Libra in love make a glamorous and exciting couple that's socially in demand.
Libra and Sagittarius
Libra and Sagittarius relationship might be the perfect pair. A Sagittarian is an optimistic, cheerful, happy-go-lucky person who can brighten, expand, and add adventure to a Libra's life.

At their best, Libra and Sagittarius play off each other perfectly.

Libra and Aquarius
Libra and Aquarius are awe-inspiring as a couple. Each requires a lot of freedom, and each has its own brand of charisma that attracts others to them.

But even in a marriage, they're not likely to be a traditional couple.
More Challenging Libra Love Matches

Talk With a Libra
As an air sign, Libra is all about communication, and conversation is a part of their courtship ritual. Libra finds conversation romantic and intellectual stimulation a big turn-on. So. If you know something they don't know or have an opinion about something tell them but keep in mind that while a Libra enjoys a pleasant debate and finds the back and forth stimulating, they hate to fight.
Romantic Sex
The combination of romance, love, and Libra eventually leads to sex. Libras are gifted sexual partners who are passionate, wild, and have a need to please. A Libra won't normally indulge in one-night stands, and they want all the special touches of romantic sex, but because a Libra is an air sign, sex for them is not so much emotional and physical as it is mental. Sexy conversations and words of love are like an aphrodisiac for a Libra.
Do Libras Cheat?
Do Libras cheat? This is a loaded question because every Libra is different, related to the rest of their birth chart, and generalizing too far on something so important based on a Sun sign can be misleading. However, considering the Libra Sun sign only, when a Libra is in love, they are absorbed by love, both the idea of love and their partner. They want and enjoy being committed to another person, and cheating is not in their solar nature. Libras are friendly, charming, flirty, like to look, and can be serial monogamists, but they're not generally cheaters.
