Romance Style
You are a Traditional
Red roses, chocolate truffles and champagne say it all for you. Whether you're playing Prince Charming or looking for him, you want things to be right out of a fairy tale. Traditional females have a harder time in love than their male counterparts; if they're not paired with someone who can show them affection, they may retreat into a world of romance novels and Nora Ephron movies, while Traditional males are generally snatched up like hotcakes! Looking to turn up the heat? Read what our sex expert, Tracey Cox, has to say about expressing yourself sexually.

Communication Style
You are a Talker
You're someone who gets his or her thoughts out on the table -- you'd rather let your feelings be known than keep them bottled up inside. But your listening skills could use some work.

Larry is a Compromiser
You don't like friction, and because of your desire for smooth sailing, you welcome your partner's suggestions and point of view. You choose your battles wisely, but you don't always get to the heart of the matter, preferring instead to keep the peace.

Your Communication Compatibility:
Talker/Compromiser: You two have a good shot at success, but the Talker could use some guidance on how to stop talking long enough to listen. Need expert help?

Astrological Assessment
You are a Libra
In love relationships, Libra is playful and romantic. The great strength of the Libra-born is their drive for peace and harmony. Their skill at seeing all sides of a situation makes Libra one of the most fair-minded characters of the zodiac.

Larry is a Capricorn
In love, Capricorn is devoted, not daring. The great strength of the Capricorn-born is their ability to set goals and keep working until those goals are achieved. Their hard work makes Capricorn one of the most successful characters of the zodiac.

Astrological Compatibility:
When Libra and Capricorn come together, the success of the relationship depends on both partners' ability to agree on similar interests. The similarities aren't always easy to spot, however. Libra is extroverted and derives satisfaction from public interaction. Capricorn is more calculated, steering clear of distractions while moving steadily toward a set goal. Both signs will certainly reach their destination, following two very different paths that can still merge. The best aspect of the Libra-Capricorn relationship is that they each bring their own qualities to the partnership. Once they allow each other to be themselves -- rather than getting in each other's way -- they can blend well to make a whole. Theirs is a challenging relationship, but they can learn from each other if they maintain the effort.
