In our Love App-tually series, Mashable shines a light into the foggy world of online dating. It is cuffing season after all.
Picking which dating app will drag you down to hell is no easy task. So why not select one based on the internet's favorite pastime: astrology?
Maybe you should try Coffee Meets Bagel. Perhaps a nice stint on Bumble is in your future. Or maybe you should give Happn a chance. (Yikes.)
AdultFriendFinder
—
readers’ pick for casual connections
Tinder
—

Hinge

popular choice for regular meetups
Pure

OkCupid
—
best app for inclusivity
Whatever your result, feel free to take these suggestions as seriously as you'd like. After all, nothing is written in the stars, especially love. Bleak!
Aquarius: OKCupid
The deep-thinking, logical Aquarius will appreciate OKCupid's literal hundreds of survey questions, instead of being overwhelmed by them.
Pisces: Hinge
With Hinge comes a wide range of flirting opportunities — users can comment on photos, comment on answers, match without messaging, or message directly. Pisces, a truly creative flirt, is sure to excel here.
Aries: Bumble
Aries who are women seeking men will particularly enjoy Bumble. It has the adventurous, quick swipe energy they're into, but since women have to message first, they still get to maintain a sense of control.
Taurus: Coffee Meets Bagel
Tauruses have a reputation for being high-maintenance, but there's nothing wrong with a little pickiness. Coffee Meets Bagel provides a limited number of curated matches every day while still being fairly low-pressure. As far as dating apps go, it's as close to a balanced experience as you're going to get.
Gemini: Tinder
Tinder can feel like the Wild West, but that won't faze a Gemini. Like Tinder, they're a little all over the place. But that just means more possibilities!
Cancer: Wingman
The sensitive Cancer can veer into crisis mode fairly easily, which is why it might be helpful to have a dedicated team of wing-people to help them navigate the online dating realm. Plus, Cancers love friendship.
Leo: Raya
Leos are stereotyped as showboats because they are showboats. What better way to show off than joining an exclusive dating app with a waitlist 100,000 people deep? Also, its nickname is "Illuminati Tinder."
Virgo: The League
Profiles on The League must undergo a pretty intense screening process — including submitting their LinkedIn profile — which is perfect for the fastidious Virgo.
Libra: Happn
Happn, which matches you with people you've crossed paths with IRL, is not not creepy. It's also potentially great for Libras, who have a very healthy appetite for romance but may need a beat to consider: Are they actually crushing on the person from the subway? Or do they just like dramatic eye contact?
Scorpio: Hater
Using Hater, which is predicated on the idea that people will bond over their mutual dislikes, can be a pretty intense experience. Luckily, "intense" is every Scorpio's middle name.
Sagittarius: Zoosk
Zoosk is a large community of over 35 million users, which should play well with a Sagittarius's adventurous spirit and optimism — even when the experience gets a bit overwhelming.
Capricorn: Match
Capricorns have a reputation for enjoying the classics, so Match, which has been around in some form or another since 1995, is a good option for them.
Love. It's in the stars.
