When it comes to romantic relationships, people with the Entrepreneur personality type can hardly be said to be pining away for their wedding day. Life is fun and full of surprises (something Entrepreneurs have particular skill in delivering), and they enjoy it all in the here and now. Entrepreneurs may not spend a lot of time planning for someday, but their enthusiasm and unpredictability make them thrilling dating partners. Entrepreneurs love new ideas and the occasional philosophical discussion – but they need to be topics that can explored through action together, not just idle talk.
Sexually, Entrepreneurs have no real reservations. It is fun, it is physically enjoyable, new ideas are always welcome, and Entrepreneur personalities' strong perception keeps them well-tuned to their partners' needs. However, Entrepreneurs' separation of the physical act from the more emotional and spiritual connections that many other types look for in intimacy can be a serious source of tension if everybody is not on the same page. Some types need sex to be a genuine expression of love – Entrepreneurs just aren't one of them.
As time passes, it can be challenging for Entrepreneurs to move their relationships to deeper, more emotionally intimate levels. Easily bored, people with the Entrepreneur personality type seek constant excitement – sometimes even intentionally exposing themselves to risk if they feel stuck. If their partners aren't able to keep up, Entrepreneurs may just end up looking for someone new. It is not that Entrepreneur personalities are unfaithful. Rather, they may think to themselves "This is not working, so why should I pretend it is?" Entrepreneurs are rational, and can exercise self-control if they choose, but being as charming and popular as they are, it can sometimes be a little too easy to move on.
As with any relationship, it takes work and patience. Not every day can be a thrill a minute. But Entrepreneurs are adaptable, curious individuals, which certainly helps to keep the flame burning. Maintaining healthy relationships is the ultimate chance for Entrepreneurs to exercise their talents in perceiving every change in their partners’ mood and behavior, while also using their problem-solving abilities to address their needs. Entrepreneurs can also strengthen more neglected traits, like emotional sensitivity and long-term planning.

"There was something about her eagerness and her innocence- about the passion that flared in her eyes even as she delivered such exquisite pleasure- that slayed him. As he looked into her [bright blue] eyes, he realized that he'd never met a woman like her. She was a study in contradictions, all passionate innocence and adventurous primness and shy exploration. The heady combination was enough to fascinate even the most hardened of cynics-and he was indeed fascinated."

LOVE LANGUAGE
"Her fingers slid into his thick hair, exploring his scalp. The scar was a long one. The blow that had caused it must have nearly split his skull open. As she touched his head, she heard his breath catch. "Does it hurt?" she asked, instantly removing her hand.
He shook his head with a short laugh. "I'm afraid you're causing me another kind of pain."

To a person whose love language is Words of Affirmation, their partner’s appreciation and love are best affirmed to them through words. This someone who is uniquely aware of how powerful and beautiful words can really be. On the flip-side, for people with this as their primary language, insults or negative comments may cut a little deeper. Words can be used as a way to tear someone down or build someone up.
Since written and spoken language speaks directly to their heart, people with this love language will show their loved ones affection through effusive words, terms of endearment, and sweet little nothings, which are really sweet little everythings.
For people who gravitate toward words of affirmation, they find fulfillment through positive reinforcement via compliments or praise that shines light on something they did or who they are as a person. To some, words may not seem that meaningful, but to people whose love language is words of affirmation, underneath each word is an ocean of meaning and significance that is working to either strengthen or weaken the relationship's bonds.

COMPATABILITY
"She leaned forward and caught at his hand, pressing it between her own. The touch was like white fire through his veins. He could not feel her skin only the cloth of her gloves, and yet it did not matter. You kindled me, heap of ashes that I am, into fire. He had wondered once why love was always phrased in terms of burning. The conflagration in his own veins, now, gave the answer."

When a Sagittarius and a Capricorn join together in a love match, things may start slow and they may feel that they do not have much to gain from the other.
In some ways, the Sagittarius and the Capricorn are opposites: the Sagittarius is easy going, adventurous, seeks knowledge for its own sake, always jumps headfirst into new things, and is typically impatient to a fault. The Capricorn is detail-oriented and passive, even shy, and is always looking toward the next project. Their differences can actually forge a stronger relationship in the long run, there being vast amounts each partner can learn from the other.
"Dawn couldn't come soon enough. He had to get her out of his life as quickly as possible.
It was becoming the most important thing - more important than breathing, living.
He needed to get away from her, fast. Because he didn't want to let her go."
– Anne Stuart
Early in the relationship, the Sagittarius and the Capricorn may not be able to see past one another's flaws. The Sagittarius can at times seem unruly, and the Capricorn may come across pompous and elitist. But once they stop focusing on one another's faults and look to their respective strengths, they will see a vast pool of attractive qualities. The Sagittarius can show the Capricorn adventure and excitement, and can offer a glimpse of the freedom so often missing from the Capricorn's life. The Capricorn, on the other hand, teaches the Sagittarius to pay attention to detail, uncovers the knowledge that the little things are important, and helps them to harness their random energy. The Sagittarius may view the Capricorn as too responsible, and will teach their partner to lighten up. The Capricorn may accuse Sagittarius of being reckless and impulsive, and can help them to become well mannered.

"'If you marry me, you'll never be a lady of position.' 'There is no better position for me than being your wife.' One of his big hands clasped over her skull, pressing her head against his shoulder. 'I've always wanted more for you than this.' 'Liar,' she whispered. 'You always wanted me for yourself.' Laughter stirred in his chest. 'Yes,' he admitted."

"He tightened his grip on her hand and pulled her toward him in the darkness. He knew exactly how she'd respond, her other hand coming up to push him away, her hand touching the bare, hot skin of his chest so that she drew back in surprise, long enough for him to wrap her tightly against his chest, trapping her hand between them. He knew she'd try to jerk her head away when he slid his hand into her hair and tilted her face back for his kiss. And he knew she'd open her mouth for him.
What he hadn’t guessed was what it would feel like. He hadn’t known a mouth could feel like that. That a woman, an argumentative, reluctant woman could feel so hot in his arms, so incredibly right that his monumental self control could start to slip."
– Anne Stuart
