Sure, it’s not all sunshine and perfect dates and cute surprises. But when you get right down to it, he’s so good to you. This guy knows what you need to stay happy, and he doesn’t waste any time. He’s here to keep you happy in whatever way he can, and he knows exactly how to do it.

Of course, you already know why he’s so good to you: because you deserve it, obviously! But let’s face it, not every guy has treated you the way you deserve to be treated. You know what they say about kissing frogs.

Fortunately, those days are in the past. Your current guy knows you and he knows you damn well. Sometimes you’re pretty sure he actually knows you better than you know yourself.

Whether you thrive on gifts, attention, alone time, or surprises, he knows exactly how to make your day. Bad day at work? He’s there with a glass of wine and a hot bath to help you wind down. You two had a fight? He knows just how to make it up to you. Absolutely nothing’s wrong and you’re already having a great day? Chances are, he’s about to find a brand new way to make it even better. Hey, you’re not bragging. It’s just the kind of guy he is!

In fact, he’s so sweet and thoughtful, it’s almost like he can read your mind—which may make you wonder, how exactly does he do it? Even if it seems like your guy’s a mind reader, you definitely can’t read his. But his zodiac sign may be able to give you some clues! Hey, it does seem like you two are written in the stars, after all, so why not look to them for some answers?

Here’s what astrology can tell you about why he’s so good to you, according to his horoscope sign.

ARIES (March 21 - April 19)

Everyone knows the Aries guy is all about competition. And while some people may see his super competitive nature as a weakness, it’s working out pretty well for you! Your guy is in constant competition with himself to make you happier than you’ve ever been. He’s always one step ahead of the game, meaning he wakes up every morning with a new plan to make this your best day yet.

Aries is also known to struggle with impulse control issues. His impulsive nature may not always be his friend, but it does mean he’s always ready to splurge on you. He’s always bringing you home surprises and he doesn't think twice about dropping cash on last-minute dates and adventures. He’s a man on a mission, and that mission is to keep you happy!

TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)

Reliable, patient, and devoted, the Taurus man is known for being the perfect partner in relationships. It’s in his nature to be loyal and protective, which means he works hard to keep you feeling safe and happy in your relationship.

You never have to question where you stand with your Taurus man because he gives you everything you need to feel happy and secure.

GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)

Your Gemini guy is also always ready to have fun and he dreads falling into repetition and routine. He works hard to keep the spark alive in your relationship, always planning fun dates and spontaneous getaways. There’s no such thing as a rut when you’re dating a Gemini.

CANCER (June 21 - July 22)

As a water sign, your Cancer guy is naturally intuitive. He’s in tune with his own emotions as well as yours, meaning he knows how to keep you both happy. Due to his highly emotional nature, this man can be very deep and romantic, and those tendencies lead to a profound connection you can both feel.

Along with his capacity for romance, Cancer’s natural intuition means he’s really good at being able to read the moment and understand how you’re feeling. He’s good at detecting your needs, so he always knows exactly what to do in every situation. He just gets you.

He put real effort into getting to know you and learning how to treat you exactly the way you want to be treated. He’s naturally kind and hardworking, and he puts the maximum amount of effort into every aspect of your relationship.

He may not be one for spontaneity, he’s way too careful and organized. But your Virgo guy does what so few guys can: he puts in the effort. No matter how long you two have been together, your Virgo guy never stops putting hard work into your relationship, and it speaks volumes.

The Libra man has an understanding of your needs as well as his own, and he works hard to find the best way to keep you two in harmony.

SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)

Scorpios are notoriously passionate lovers. The Scorpio man is always ready to heat things up, both inside and outside of the bedroom.

The Pisces guy can’t help but pour everything he has into a relationship (which often comes back to bite him!) He wants to give you everything he has, even though he’s probably been hurt before. The Pisces man isn’t afraid to be vulnerable in relationships. When he decides to open up, he’s all in.
