How does a Virgo man act when he likes a woman?

wikiHow Editorial Team

Virgos tend to be reserved, practical, and somewhat socially awkward, so when a Virgo man likes a woman, he's likely to show it through his actions, rather than saying how he feels directly. Virgos like to be of use, so he may go out of his way to be helpful to someone he's interested in, and attentive to her needs.
