Because sanguine people are the most adventurous of the four temperaments, they are often most compatible with their own type. These people are looking for a playmate — someone who will go on adventures with them, whether in conversation or around the world. They see dating as entertainment and love going out, trying new things, and keeping the relationship lively. In short, a relationship with a sanguine person can be very exciting.
The Pleasure of the Senses
Because they enjoy sensory pleasure, sanguine people are likely to take you to all kinds of art and cultural events, movies, shows, and exotic restaurants. They are also highly sensitive to the world around them, and you may notice their attraction to complex designs and abstract art, as well as their preference for sour, spicy, and crunchy foods.
They like intense, complicated music, and their sense of rhythm may even come through in the way they talk. Their extroverted nature and constant craving for variety mean that most sanguine people have plenty of dating experience and can easily adjust to almost any courtship situation. They are friendly and enthusiastic, and because they have no desire to control you, you will probably feel comfortable and at ease. These people are also generous and may give gifts early in the relationship.
Listen to Me!
Sanguine people are good listeners. They will often ask you about yourself, partly to engage you and partly to satisfy their own curiosity. During a conversation, many of them look directly at you, lean forward, touch your hand, arm, or leg, and listen intently.
Most of them have no problem moving from one topic to another. Although sanguine people may find self-disclosure difficult at first, they will talk about themselves occasionally, usually with more humor than seriousness. Eventually, once they feel comfortable, deeper disclosure will come.
Laugh With Me!
These people enjoy nonsense and incongruous humor, and they usually have no problem laughing at themselves if it makes other people laugh too. They are good at banter and witty exchanges, and as natural people-pleasers, they often try to perform, entertain, and surprise you — which, of course, they love.
What Kind of Sanguine Lover Are You?
A person’s secondary personality type plays an important role in how they love.
For instance, many sanguine people have a flexible approach to morality, but the sanguine-melancholic type usually has fixed moral values and looks for a partner who shares this attitude. They are likely to be more conventional in courtship: bringing flowers, being on time, and wanting to know where they stand in the relationship.
The sanguine-phlegmatic type seeks harmony. These people are sensitive to their partner’s needs and have a big heart. They are unlikely to choose someone who competes with them in the relationship or overloads their schedule.
Sanguine-choleric people are a little unusual and independent. They have strong nerves, do well on the edge, and usually do not feel the need to justify their actions. They also tend to act fast. They need a partner who understands their need for independence and gives them enough space to act freely.
Generally, sanguine people take time before they commit, but once they do, they can be truly thrilling and passionate lovers.
