Hello everyone, and welcome back to my little corner of the internet. Over here, we talk about the Astrology of your relationships with others and yourselves. It’s a nice place to be, so sit down and stay a while, love.

Today we’re talking about the Leo guy. If you’re here, I’m sure that you know all about Leo’s reputation. Perhaps that’s why you’re here. When you know about the Leo man’s traits, you’ll understand why showing him appreciation is incredibly important.

Leo men need to feel appreciated. To a Leo, being is literally one of the most important things in the world. They live for the feeling of others admiring them and seeing what they’ve got to offer the world at large, especially their partner.

Leos go above and beyond for others, so telling them how much you appreciate them is a huge deal. Leos receive praise in a different way than other signs which is why it’s good to equip yourself with all kinds of knowledge regarding their habits and needs.

Keep reading to find out all the ways that you can show your Leo guy just how appreciated he is!

5 Little Ways To Show A Leo Man How Much You Appreciate Him

1. Make Him The Center Of Attention

The Leo man is ruled by the Sun, which is obviously the most noticeable and unignorable planet in the sky. The Sun’s luminosity is what sustains the Earth and all life upon it. Leo would also like to feel as if he’s some version of this to the people around him. As a result, he really benefits from some time in the spotlight.

Now, don’t get me wrong. Everyone else deserves some time to shine as well, and contrary to popular belief, it is not actually ALL about the Leo man. However, the Leo will wilt and fade away if they feel totally unseen. They live for eyes being on them and in monitoring how they’re perceived.

Some good ways to do this are to publicly acknowledge him. A nice Instagram or Twitter post would absolutely tickle him. Pampering him and paying attention to him in general is a good way to let him know that he’s loved. He needs your engaged presence around him to feel your appreciation, so let him know what he means to you.

2. Tell Him He’s Handsome

The Leo guy has a pretty meaty ego. They are competitive and do enjoy being the best at things. They want to know that they’re just a little better than those around them. This is why it’s smart to shower your guy with compliments just as much as you can.

This means letting him know that he’s the only guy in your sights. Leos just eat this up. Leos themselves are extremely loyal but may have security issues in relationships. If he believes that you’re more attracted to him than anyone else on the planet then he’ll feel safer with you and very, very appreciated.

Leo guys have a pretty big ego, so don’t be stingy with the compliments! Lay them on thick and be a little over the top if you want to be. The Leo guy will appreciate this and isn’t likely to think it’s too much (unless it’s not authentic).

3. Get Physical

Leos are fire signs ruled by the planet of procreation (the Sun) so as a result, they’ve got a pretty spicy flavor profile in the bedroom. If you’re making your Leo feel like the sexiest beast in the jungle, then odds are he’s going to want to show how much he loves you with physical affection.

The bedroom is a chance to perform for the Leo guy. Knowing he can satisfy you is a huge feather in his cap. He’s going to have a better outlook on life in general if he feels that he makes you happy under the sheets.

Leo guys are also very loyal as partners, so you can rest assured you’re the only one that they’re with unless the rest of the chart indicates otherwise. How do you know if the rest of the chart indicates otherwise? Well, honestly, it takes years to properly understand the nuances of a birth chart.

4. Praise Him. A Lot.

If you haven’t gotten the gist, Leo men need to be validated. They have to know that others think that they are smart, funny, strong, and handsome all at the same time. They try so hard to be a perfect person and solve the problems of others in an effort to get praise. Maybe this sounds shallow, but Leos genuinely aren’t sure how to function unless they feel positively perceived by others.

Leos need to know that you think they’re a bright and shiny light in your sky. If they feel that you’re not admiring them they can become quite insecure very quickly.

While the Leo man may not overtly ask for praise and validation, you’ll see how bad they want it. If you’re in a position to, it’s always a good idea to give them some validation and praise on this one!

5. Invite Him Places

Leos never want to feel left out. Honestly, if they thought they weren’t going to be invited somewhere they’d be incredibly hurt in most cases. They want to feel included with others. Leos love to make a scene and go out on the town. Or just to the grocery store. They can make a splash no matter where they’re at.

He’ll deeply appreciate you for taking him with you. He is likely to initiate most outings unless you’re a very social sign, however, keeping him in the loop on what’s going on is important.

As a bonus, go somewhere where the two of you will be seen together. This is going to make him feel as if you’re proud to be with him. This is a feeling that they treasure.
