Aquarius and Leo are opposite signs. This means Aquarius and Leo are very different, but also have the chance to learn from each other. If there's one thing a Leo needs, it's to be adored - by everyone around him or her, surely, but by a lover first and foremost. Leos require a constant stream of attention and praise. Aquarius tends to be self-motivated, which means Aquarius may not be interested in stroking Leo's ego 24/7. Aquarius can easily hurt their partner with their natural aloofness, often without even realizing it. Compromise is the key to making this relationship work.
