Dragon in love

In love, the Dragon is magnetic, generous and grand — they love passionately and need a partner who admires their fire and ambition. Dragons can be a little self-focused and proud, so the right partner is confident enough to stand beside them without being eclipsed. When they commit, they're devoted, protective and bring excitement and abundance to the relationship.
