Connecting on a cerebral level is known as intellectual closeness. It involves sharing thoughts and talking about life’s greater issues. To fall in love and be content in a relationship, some people need a stronger mental bond than others.
Accordingly, these three signs of the zodiac require intellectual closeness in partnerships.
1. Virgo
Virgos have little interest in shallow romance. Instead, Virgos seek a mate who can challenge, educate, and mentally stimulate them while also helping them grow into a better, more complete person. As a result, this sensible earth sign is most drawn to highly intelligent individuals with whom they may engage in sophisticated, thought-provoking conversations.
2. Gemini
Gemini is a changeable sign that enjoys having in-depth conversations. Given that Mercury, the planet of communication, cognition, and memory, rules Gemini, this makes sense. This is the reason Geminis have such a high mind and are so intelligent. Due to their strong mental connection, Geminis are insatiably curious about almost anything. They want to know everything. Geminis therefore require a companion who can stay up to date with their hobbies and interact with their curiosities.
3. Aquarius
Aquarius is a hardy sign. When it comes to issues of the heart, this sign can be a little distant, but this is only because they don’t connect in the conventionally romantic manner, which not everyone is aware of. The reason for this is that Aquarius develops feelings for someone’s intellect. For Aquarius to be engaged in and attached to someone else, they must be intellectually challenged and intrigued.
