We all have friends who have bad taste in partners. You know the kind where you question your friend’s decision-making skills. Every time their partner says or does something obnoxious, you wonder what they could possibly see in them.

On the flip side are those zodiac signs who have good taste in partners, and tend to choose healthy relationships.

Their partner is kind, considerate, and treats them and everyone else well and with respect. They have a good sense of humor, are great in an emergency, and are radically accepting. They’re not perfect — they’re human — and that makes them even more likable.

Some may consider these individuals lucky in love. And that's because they don't jump into a relationship right away, taking the time to get to know someone instead. And depending on the zodiac sign in astrology, being able to see someone’s heart and be discerning when it comes to love is a great gift.

1. CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)

While Capricorns are known for being cautious and careful, they seem to have a sixth sense about when they should mix things up a bit and take a chance on someone. Capricorns study people and can tell the difference between someone pretending to be nice and those who are genuinely kind.

Capricorns tend to have a wicked sense of humor and need the same in a partner. They want someone who will be supportive and by their side in times of crisis, but can also make them laugh and have a good time. When Capricorn chooses someone, they choose wisely.

2. PISCES (February 19 - March 20)

Romance and love are at the top of Pisces' list of what they want in life. Luckily, they have great instincts about who will provide love and romance for them. This zodiac sign is intuitive and has the ability to see past the surface. It would be too "woo woo" to say that Pisces can see someone's true self or heart, but they definitely have a great sense about people.

When Pisces actually pays attention to what their inner voice is telling them, they tend to end up with the best partners. It's when they ignore their own instincts and listen to other people's advice that things don't end up right.

3. VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)

Virgos have fantastic taste in partners and relationships, but it's not because they were lucky enough to be born with it. No, Virgo has worked on their abilities to find the best person for them. They are sensitive, smart, and learn from their own mistakes.

Virgos follow their hearts and know not only the facts, but they can see the red flags others may miss. Someone dating a Virgo may not know that their relationship is on a trial basis, but it is. They aren't going to commit until they know for sure their potential partner is everything they want.

4. TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)

Taurus has great taste in partners — they tend to have great taste in everything! They have a gut feeling about someone the minute the first impression has been established; after that, Taurus will consider all positives and negatives before they even go on that first date.

Taureans don't do things lightly, and when they commit to someone, they're very sure that person is the one. Taurus wants the whole package, but they're not looking for perfection, and their method for vetting someone seems to work because their partners tend to be wonderful.

Love and family mean everything to Cancer, so they're not going to get involved with anyone who doesn't cut it. They depend on their intuition to steer them to the right person.

Cancer's partners need to be compassionate, creative, and loving. They aren't going to waste their time on anyone who isn't amazing, so even their exes are great and Cancer often stays in touch with them. When this zodiac sign is in a relationship, they give it their all.

Aquarians may not be the most emotional of the signs, but they are one of the most intelligent, and they tend to end up with really great partners. Some Aquarians meet their partner and start a committed relationship not long after. 

Their partners tend to be universally great — funny, kind, interesting, creative, and thoughtful. Knowing Aquarius, they probably came up with their own formula for finding a great partner.
