What your zodiac sign says about your love life

Our relationships are vital to our emotional stability. Hence the need to understand how to handle the special people in our lives.

Here is what horoscope.com has to say about your love life this week.

Aries: Is it really necessary to let your friends in on every little detail of your dating life? They'll definitely press you to kiss and tell at the start of the week, but you don't have to give them any information if you don't want to. You have a right to privacy! You aren't sure you believe in love at first sight, but you meet someone over the weekend who has instant chemistry with you. It might be lust.

Taurus: You handle romantic problems with style and grace at the beginning of the week. You might not feel very confident on the inside, but you exude it on the outside. It's a good thing no one can tell what you're really thinking! You have wonderful physical expression later in the week, but that isn't enough to make a relationship last in the long term. Find a better way to express yourself emotionally.

Gemini: How many things are you trying to conceal? Trying to hide who you truly are gets tiring. Open up and let someone in at the beginning of the week. You won't regret it. A surprise encounter toward the end of the week allows you to meet and hit it off with someone you wouldn't normally think of as dating material. If this experience teaches you just one thing, it's to never judge a book by its cover!

Cancer: Lower your inhibitions at the start of a new week. Even if you're feeling a bit self-conscious, you should be able to let loose in a safe, comfortable environment. Your moods dictate your actions over the weekend, which could cause you to say or text some things that you normally wouldn't. Do your best to stay on topic and don't divulge more than you absolutely have to. Good communication is the first step to happiness.

Leo: The beginning of a new week is a perfect time to start a new chapter in your love life. Let bygones be bygones as you navigate totally new romantic waters. It's easy to get your other single friends on board when you have a fun idea over the weekend, but don't make seduction your main objective. Go out and have a good time. If romance happens to be the outcome of your outing, that would be awesome!

Virgo: There's electricity in the air when you're around someone you're attracted to at the beginning of the week, so find a way to capitalize on that chemistry. Make getting a date with this person a priority. You see everything in a neat and orderly package at the end of the week, which gives you very little breathing room when it comes to making positive changes. It's OK. Doing things the same way over and over has its advantages.

Libra: No matter what your age or romantic experience level, everyone comes into a new relationship with at least a little baggage. Keep an open mind when meeting new people at the beginning of the week. After all, don't you want the other person to do the same? There are some embarrassing moments on dates over the weekend, but there are some really memorable ones, too. Capture the good ones with selfies!

Scorpio: Are you so used to being the one to make the first move that you don't even realize when someone is hitting on you? You aren't often comfortable being in a passive role, but in the first part of the week it's a turn-on. You don't really like being the center of attention later in the week, so you do everything in your power to talk your date out of putting you on a pedestal.

Sagittarius: You may be short on cash as the new week begins, but you're long on creativity. A great date consists of a fantastic idea and the willingness to put it into action way more than it depends on a big bank account balance. You're a very good nurturer later in the week, but your sympathetic approach could give someone the wrong idea. Avoid physical contact if you aren't romantically interested in the person.

Capricorn: Getting out of your usual familiar surroundings is a great way to meet new people as a new week begins. Ask for directions when you're in a different part of town. Or strike up a conversation with your seatmate on a plane. You never know when or where you'll meet your next great love! Your plans for the perfect date could fall by the wayside over the weekend, but not much else matters when there's laughter between you.

Aquarius: When someone asks you about your love life, is your reply, "What love life?" If you've been working or studying too much lately or just ignoring your personal needs in general, it's time to make a change. Step outside your comfort zone in order to experience that sense of romantic excitement that you've been missing. Try to muster up some compassion if a date recalls a traumatic event over the weekend. They'll be able to tell if you're faking it.

Pisces: Your friends are the best matchmakers for you in the beginning of the week. Cancel your memberships to online dating sites and rely on the people who know you best to help you find a mate. You daydream about an unobtainable crush or sexy celebrity later in the week, but the chances of anything happening with him or her in real life are very low. Focus on reality if you can.
