If a relationship goes sour, you may find yourself wondering what kind of ex you are. Do you stay friends with your former partner or do you cut all ties? Are you dramatic and passionate or relatively cool-headed about the situation? Well, it turns out that astrological signs can tell a lot about the type of ex someone might be. Read on to find out what kind of ex your zodiac sign reveals you to be!
Aries
Aries are incredibly passionate and feisty, so it should come as no surprise that they tend to be pretty fiery when it comes to dealing with their breakups. Aries are not always the best at handling their emotions, so their passionate anger can spill over into breakups. They may be quick to argue and blame, and very difficult to get back into the good graces of. They can also be quite vengeful, which can lead to a not-so-peaceful parting.
Taurus
Taurus are fiercely loyal creatures, and as such they tend to take breakups very poorly. They often experience a great deal of pain and hurt during a breakup, and have a difficult time forgiving and forgetting. This can make them some of the most difficult exes to deal with. They may even cling to the relationship, attempting to remain friends long after it has ended.
Gemini
Gemini’s are an easy-going bunch, so breakups typically don’t faze them. They are quick to forgive and forget and very good at maintaining a neutral stance post-breakup. They may even try to stay amicable with their former flames and remain friends. The only downside is that getting close to them again may be easier said than done, as Geminis may become wary of getting hurt again.
Cancer
Cancers are incredibly emotional, so breakups can be quite traumatic for them. They may try to stay together with their partners far longer than they should and are slow to move on. They may also attempt to remain friends with their ex, despite the fact that it may hinder their recovery process. Eventually though, they’ll weather the storm and come out ok, if they choose to move on.
Leo
Leo’s can be quite dramatic in the face of a breakup and are often the first to plant the blame. They can be painfully prideful, refusing to admit their mistakes and working to make themselves the victim in the situation. After a breakup, the best strategy is to never cross them again, as they may never forgive or forget the wrongs they feel have been committed.
Virgo
Virgo is the most practical of the zodiac signs and will often be the first to realize when a relationship has reached an end. However, that doesn’t mean that Virgo exes are without emotion; in fact, it may be the complete opposite. They can be incredibly hurt and vulnerable after a breakup, quickly retreating and blaming others for their suffering. They may be difficult to get close to after a relationship has ended.
Libra
Breakups are never easy, but Libra never make them more difficult. Libra exes are extremely understanding and even-keeled, always respecting their former partners and wishing them the best. They can come off as cold and unaffected post-breakup, but this is only because they are so focused on the process of healing and moving forward. Libra’s want to remain amicable and be viewed as the “good guys” after a split.
Scorpio
Scorpios are intense and passionate, and as such, breakups with them can be lethal. They can be vengeful and unforgiving, holding grudges and looking for opportunities to seek revenge. Their temper can be incredibly volatile after a breakup, and even small disagreements can turn into huge arguments. If a Scorpio has parted ways with you, it likely means that peace and harmony aren’t likely to be found between you again any time soon.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius’s are quite practical when it comes to their breakups. They may be the first to walk away from a relationship if they sense that it’s not working, and they typically don’t dwell on the past. Their main concern is getting out and moving forward as quickly as possible, often brushing away any feelings of guilt or attachment. Once they’ve gone, they are unlikely to ever look back.
Capricorn
Capricorns are highly analytical, and as such, tend to approach relationships with that same mindset. They may notice early on when a relationship is going south and will be the first to make a move. However, this doesn’t mean that breakups with Capricorns can be easy. They can be incredibly stubborn and may attempt to justify their departure even after the fact. And once they’ve made a decision, it is unlikely that Capricorns will backtrack.
Aquarius
Aquarius is a zodiac sign that tends to view breakups very practically. They recognize when a relationship isn’t working and know that the best thing to do is to step back and move on. They are understanding and balanced when it comes to parting ways, rarely feeling overly guilty or hurt after a split. They may stay friends with their exes if it seems warranted, but are unlikely to pay them any special attention.
Pisces
Pisces are incredibly compassionate, and as such, tend to experience tremendous pain when a relationship ends. Breakups can be very traumatic for Pisceans, who may retreat for a period of time after a split. They are forgiving and understanding and may even attempt to stay friends with their partners post-split. They may also experience long bouts of melancholy after a breakup, finding it difficult to find their way back to happiness.
