Why The Zodiac Signs Fall Out Of Love

It’s one of the most painful things that can happen when the person you love falls out of love with you. It feels as if you’re being repeatedly stabbed all over your body and you wonder if you’ll ever feel okay again.

When your partner falls out of love with you, it may take you a while to discover that their feelings have changed. They may go through the motions and act as if they still care, but over time, you start to feel as if things have shifted. They don’t text you as much, or if they’re picking up dinner on the way home for work, they don’t get you anything.

As you start to notice the small changes in their behavior, the knowledge that you no longer have their heart becomes clearer and clearer until you can’t stand it any longer. You ask them point blank: “Don’t you love me anymore?”

You hate them for putting you in that position and you hate yourself for your need to know the truth about their feelings. If they confirm that they don’t love you, it’s horrible; if they lie and tell you that they still love you as much as ever and you know it’s a lie, that’s even worse.

Then there are times when your partner will tell you outright that their feelings have changed, which is usually followed by a circumstance change such as the request for you to move out or the revelation that they’ve found someone new. Each horrible new truth that follows a declaration of not loving you anymore will probably make you feel even worse.

Although it’s hard to prepare for the devastation of an emotional status change, it’s not a bad idea to try to be as fully aware of your partner’s feelings as possible. Be present so that when they tell you something along the lines of having fallen out of love with you, you won’t be blindsided.

Here's why each zodiac sign falls out of love with their partner.

While Geminis love to have engrossing conversations, they need to be able to discover things about you. If you were too revealing too quickly, they might get satiated enough to move on to someone else. You can't give away too much information and what you do tell them should be interesting. Keeping a Gemini engaged can be like walking a tightrope. One trick is to ask them questions because they are a fascinating person, and if it seems as if you agree, then you have a lot in common.

Did you forget that underneath that dazzling personality and movie star good looks, beats the heart of an insecure child? Sure, Leos practically have an entourage just devoted to stroking their ego, but they need their boo to make them feel better after a bout of insecurity. You need to remind them that they're the most wonderful person that you ever met and that you are so grateful they're in your life.

VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)

Virgos are able to fix a lot of things such as the hard drive on your computer or the brake lights on your car, but they have trouble fixing the perfectionism part of their personalities. The truth is you just didn't measure up, but then again, nobody does, not even the Virgo themselves. They search for flaws and imperfections — anything they can find fault with. You're amazing just the way you are, and you don't need anyone to make you think otherwise.

SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)

While Scorpios are the most passionate of the signs, that doesn't guarantee that their passion is always a positive thing. You may have felt like he was obsessive and controlling and that your life was under his watch at all times. If you weren't truthful, even if it was a tiny white lie and he found out, he would fall out of love with you. Try to make it so that the end was amiable because once a Scorpio decides on revenge, there's no stopping them.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)

Sagittarius are terrified of being tied down, and if you made them feel those dangerous feelings of comfort, safety, and stability, they'd want to leave as quickly as they could. It's not you, it's completely them. They have attention issues — if they aren't meeting new people and doing new things, they get agitated. However, once they mature a little bit and have sown their wild, imported oats, there's a good chance they'll come back and try to make a life with you. Though the danger of them wigging out and wanting to be away will always be there.

CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)

Capricorns are known for being dependable, conscientious and reliable, and yet they're also known for flipping the script and choosing someone entirely inappropriate to be with. At a certain point, they realize that the moon child/artistic/laid back person they're with isn't right for them and they'll fall out of love. If that's you, it hurts, but it's better to know now that you're a good match. If you're also someone who is a workaholic who is hell bent on having a spectacular career, then all you have to do is show them how financially prepared you are for the future. Retirement accounts are hot AF for a Capricorn.

PISCES (February 19 - March 20)

If you took advantage of their selflessness again and again, eventually Pisces would fall out of love with you, but know that it's hurting them much more than it hurts you. They can't stand to get hurt and would rather retreat to their imagination than deal with any negative emotions. If you were mean and blunt to them and didn't take care of their sensitive hearts, then they fell out of love with you. They wanted more than anything for it to work out between you, but at some point, they had to disengage so that they didn't fall apart entirely.
