For some zodiac signs, a first date isn't a first date unless there's a little hiccup. They look forward to visiting chic restaurants and cocktail bars, taking Uber These types of dates can be fun, especially if you're in a great frame of mind, but for some zodiac signs, it's not their idea of a good time at all.
Astrologer and spiritual counselor Letao Wang says not all zodiac signs share the same views on what makes a great first date. Some people really prefer to keep things fun and affordable rather than fancy and elaborate. They're all about ice cream, pizza, chips, and cheap beer. These zodiac signs are also big proponents of coffee dates, and they'll never say no to a bowling night.
It all depends on what they value and look for in a partner. If a sign values emotional connection, they won't want to be attracted to wealth. (Some may even find it cringe-worthy.)
Others really enjoy the simple things in life, like walking in the park and exploring the city on bikes. They know that real quality time doesn't have to come at a high price, and they want that energy to carry them with them into their relationship.
Here are three zodiac signs who really love a cheap first date, according to astrologers.
Cancer (June 21 to July 22)
"Cancers are known for their nurturing and sensitive nature, and they value emotional connections," Wang said. "They are happiest in a warm and intimate environment, where they can get to know someone on a deeper level. You know, like at a pizza parlor."
This water sign doesn't need to do anything flashy or fancy to find love, which is why they always sit down for a cup of coffee or go for a walk for their first meeting. In fact, extravagant dates can make them feel "overwhelmed or out of place," he said, so they are drawn to laid-back gatherings.
If a Cancer does agree to go on a first date to a real restaurant or bar, they'll be all about the dives, diners, and cozy cafes. Instead of eating risotto and sparkling wine, they want to chat over chips and beer. In fact, Wang says, you can totally win them over by ordering something nostalgic and comforting, like chicken nuggets or mashed potatoes with lots of ketchup.
Virgo (August 23-September 22)
While you might think pragmatic, detail-oriented Virgo would enjoy an extravagant first date, this earth sign actually revels in calm and thoughtful experiences. “They would rather enjoy a casual meal or visit the farmer’s market together than get dressed up and go out for a night on the town,” Wang said.
They'll want to get to know you through laughter, deep chat, and genuine interaction, not small talk in a stuffy cocktail bar—no matter how trendy that may be.
If you do want to grab a bite to eat together, Wang suggests opting for a farm-to-table cafe or even a food truck, where Virgo can tuck into something unique and local. Follow it up with a walk to get ice cream and chances are they'll fall in love.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)
Don’t bother booking a luxury cruise dinner for your first date with a Sagittarius. The key to tapping into their heartstrings is bike rides, hikes in the park, and nights out dancing—all of which are not only super fun, but often free.
"This fire sign appreciates spontaneity and loves creating memories through shared experiences," Wang says. If you end up having a mini adventure, you'll bond and they'll definitely get nervous if they see you being outgoing.
As a sign ruled by lucky Jupiter, they like to go by the seat of their pants - which means they rarely plan dates. While some zodiac signs like to win and dine, Sagittarius actually kind of dislikes showing off their wealth, so don't bother showing up in a sports car.
They are looking for a partner who shares the same laid-back, fun values, so they are not easily impressed by "nice" things. For them, life is about having a real good time, not money in a bank account.
