Love
Leos are romantic, so they very much enjoy being in love. They like to flaunt their love, and going above and beyond in romance is what they give and expect. Leos crave attention. Parters of people born under this sign must give great doses of it, but not too much, so that the Lion is always chasing it.
Though a Leo's career and family life may be stellar, friends of a Leo may cringe at their romantic choices. Leos are dramatic and so may be their love life. If a Leo's mate makes them feel like royalty, the Leo may stay, even if that mate is a loser. Leos must be aware of this, because though having a relationship is nice, this sign must choose someone that can carry their own weight.
Loyalty is also very important to Leos and they give it to their mate no matter what (unless their current partner is neglecting them attention and a dazzling new person comes along). Leos have big hearts, so their generosity and warmnth in relationships are addictive to partners. Overall, Leos must learn to find a mutual, loving, and respectful relationship in order to find stability in love.

Their greatest challenge in their career, however, is typically teamwork. The Lion like to operate on its own, and they want to get tasks done a certain way.
In a Leos career, work is not driven by a paycheck. Leos must find a career that they love and when they do, nothing will stop them. This sign works hard and it is not uncommon for Leos to work around the clock. People born under this sign are also perfectionists to some degree, so they cannot stand team members that don't try their hardest.
