How faithful are you? It's all in the stars

Aries woman
Ruled by Mars, planet of action and desire, you’re not the sort to waste time. When you fall for someone, you want him now. Fiery and passionate, you’re totally faithful while the flames are burning but rapidly cool off and move on when you hit cinders. Your best chance of staying faithful is to hitch up with a guy who’s away a lot, doing long stints abroad. That way, when he’s home on leave you’ll be sizzling. When he’s away, you’re free to play.

Aries man
The male Ram sees things from a straightforward point of view – his own. There’s an animal in there and he’ll follow his instincts without a second thought, so he’s easy to lead astray. He’s a wham-bam, thank you ma’am type of guy, and a longer term vision of faithfulness tends not to register. But he’ll fight for his rights – especially his right to his partner – and be blazingly loyal if there’s a threat from any other predator.

TAURUS
21 April–20 May
Steady, sensuous, practical, productive

Taurus woman
Ruled by sensuous Venus, a close, physical encounter is your way of creating a sense of loyalty. Intimate images of being together often warm your thoughts and make you smile. You work hard to build a relationship, so you won’t easily let it go. For you, being faithful sometimes gets tied up with possessiveness. If you don’t get enough loving, it expresses itself in your need for loads of cash instead. Your stickability means you’re one of the most faithful zodiac signs, and because you don’t like change, once you’ve made a commitment you’ll even stick with a crummy relationship, come hell or high water.

Taurus man
The male Bull makes a great lover because he’s got such a hunky warm touch and feel. You can wind him up emotionally or intellectually and he won’t even notice, but betray him with your physical body and he sees it as a cardinal sin. At heart he believes he owns his woman and her body, like a piece of property. Once your relationship is established he’ll be solid as a rock and he will rarely forfeit what he has built up for the sake of a one-night stand.

GEMINI
21 May–20 June
Curious, quick, communicative, tricksy

Gemini woman
Ruled by quick-thinking Mercury, the Trickster planet, you know how to trick and treat any man you’re after, so fidelity isn’t exactly top of your shopping list. The key to togetherness for you is communication. The more you can share ideas and rap with the man in your life, the more loyal you’ll become. You can’t bear to be tied down, so you need to convince, or con, yourself that you’ve kept your options open. Only then can you be really happy, playing the love-game with just one partner.

Gemini man
Women who’ve had grief from a Gemini man often think he’s a two-timing so-and-so, but this prankster truly doesn’t know what all the fuss is about. The duality in this sign of the Twins means it’s in his nature to want two of everything. He can run two cars, two jobs and two women and be absolutely faithfully committed to them both – when he happens to be around.
