Taurus

Taurus is one of the most honest and dependable signs. Taurus won't test you or play games—they're straightforward because they want security in their relationships. Their ultimate goal is total loyalty, but it has to be mutual. To get a Taurus to devote themselves to you, show that you'll do the same for them, too. This fixed sign just wants to be a homebody or enjoy the friendship you two have built.
- Need some really good advice? Taurus is the person for you—they won't sugarcoat their opinions, but they'll also give you helpful, honest guidance.

Leo

Leo shows their loyalty through leadership. Leos consider themselves to be the ruler of a pack, so they feel that friends and relationships are critical. Leo's friends know they'll get support and help from the Leo in their life, and in return, Leo gets to be a leader. It's a win-win!

- To Capricorns, loyalty is a two-way street—don't be surprised if your Cap expects you to be just as devoted as they are.

5

Scorpio

Scorpio can be loyal to the point of obsession. You probably think of Scorpio as being a mysterious and secretive sign, but if they fall for you or become your bestie, it means they're committed to you for life!
- Feel like a Scorpio's testing you? They totally are—Scorpios have to know if their friend or partner is loyal to them, so be prepared.
- If it seems like Scorpio's a little distrustful at times, it's because they fear betrayal. Show your Scorpio that you're loyal and they'll love you forever!

6

Virgo

Virgo is steadfast and dependable. If a Virgo gives you their word, rest assured that they'll keep it. Sure, Virgo may not be as exciting or spontaneous as other zodiac signs, but they're definitely loyal. If you need anything, Virgo tends to bend over backward to help you out.^{[4]

- If you've noticed that your Virgo partner or friend is constantly helping you out, it's a really good sign. Virgo shows their loyalty by being useful.

7

Aries

Aries prioritizes themselves and their own goals. This means that Aries will put their own needs and desires above their loyalty to you—so their dedication may fluctuate. But you can trust that Aries still cares about you and will be there when it really counts, even when they’re off doing their own thing!
- Aries is the sign that might say something hurtful in the heat of the moment, but they'll be fiercely loyal if you're committed to the relationship.

8

Pisces

Pisces loves flexibility, so they're not terribly reliable. The Most Likely to Ghost award would definitely go to Pisces. Though they mean well, this water sign spends their days wrapped up in daydreams—meaning, they might not always be the most dependable. However, if you've got their attention, they'll give you their all. Pisces will let you vent to them for hours if you need it.
- Pisces will try their best to be there for you, but they may not always follow through. This sign would insist you call them so they can offer you emotional support, but forget that their phone was about to die!

9

Libra

Libra is a loyal friend, but inconsistent in romantic relationships. Libras are known for being one of the most outgoing signs, and they're super dedicated to their close friends. However, Libras tend to flip flop, so when they're in a relationship, they want out; when they're not in one, all they can think about is finding a relationship.
- A flirty Libra might have the best time ever at your romantic, candlelit dinner—but that doesn’t mean they’re skipping the date they had planned for afterward!
- With a friend though, Libra is a ride or die. This is the pal who’d show up an hour before your big date with tons of fabulous outfits for you to try on.

10

Aquarius

Aquarius fears losing their independence, so they're not the most reliable. It might not make sense—Aquarius is such a humanitarian, but they struggle with relationships. It's just super hard for them to get excited about commitment!
- Your Aquarius friend might bail on hanging out at the last minute or stand you up after you've made reservations.
- Aquarius is a tough nut to crack, but they're the sign to go to when you want to have a totally unique conversation or get a fresh perspective.

11

Gemini

Gemini is so unpredictable that it's hard to trust them. Air signs like Gemini are impressionable—they're thinkers who frequently change their minds. If it seems like they blow hot and cold, it's because they totally do! Their inconsistency can make friendships or relationships with a Gemini a little tricky.^{[5]

- Gemini can change their opinion so quickly it can make your head spin, so you may not want to ask for their advice.
- If you're with a Gemini, you can build trust over time, especially if you strengthen the relationship by having deep, thoughtful conversations. But it may not come easily!

12

Sagittarius

Sagittarius loves the idea of loyalty, but they find it hard to be tied down. Fire signs like Sagittarius are passionate—loyalty is like throwing water on the blaze. They just don't do usually do commitment in a relationship since they value their freedom too much.
- The good news is that Sagittarius has a much easier time being steadfast in friendships. Looking for excitement and adventure with a pal? Sagittarius has got you covered!
