Zodiac Signs Who Feel Too Broken To Love Again
No one wants to hurt like that again.
Feeling too broken too love again is the new term for broken heart syndrome.
People use it to mean that your heart no longer works properly, and even though you didn't die when your last relationship ended, you are still left with many reasons for why you feel the way that you do.
Heart break can literally kill you. Maybe your system got so overloaded and everything inside of your body seems to move slower now.
It's as if when you were introduced to a new love or the potential of it, you don't know where to store that idea, until it has passed through a sea of old ideas related to your former love life.
That one new concept has to go through everything that you have already gone through. It takes time to heal, and maybe you're not done with the grieving process yet.
You can also be cracked from deep within your soul. Perhaps a change in status altered your surface identity.
You were bent in a away you weren’t used to being before things ended.
After one of these heartbreaking experiences, you're going to look mostly the same, but there is an edge to you now.
If someone were to run their finger over the surface of your emotional heart, they would feel a slight contour instead of a smooth exterior. A part of you might be scared that they could themselves be cut, and you don't want to ever cause pain to another person in the same way you felt by the one you loved.
You can also be shattered emotionally still feeling completely dropped and unrecognizable.
One moment you are being held, warm in a two-handed grasp and the next you’re carelessly released on the concrete, little bits of yourself scattered around. You can replace your screen, but the calibration will be off.
You might even believe that you can never fully recover. These can be the feelings of broken heart syndrome, but science shows you can heal and learn to love again. It just takes time. So, be gentle with yourself.
Below are a list of zodiac signs who may feel too broken to love again after hurting from lost love, per astrology.
1. PISCES (February 19 - March 20)
Pisces pour their whole selves into a relationship. They find out who their partner is on the deepest level possible, and they connect to them like a Lego. They can be so trusting that betrayal is going to hit them harder than other signs.
By betrayal I don’t only mean cheating. For a Pisces, gradual loss of love is a betrayal, growing apart is a betrayal. They truly learned their partner, if not who they are then at least who they were. They exhaust themselves in the loss of their “one true love” and that makes it too hard to move on.
2. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
Sagittarius people will do anything to reach their goals. Simply getting hurt isn’t going to keep them from trying to love the person they think they are meant to be with. This is broken in away because the inability to let go is going to keep them from whole heartedly loving again.
They will completely immerse themselves into loving someone, who may not ever love them back, missing out on people who are ready to love them in the present. Sagittarius are also quite idealistic. They have an idea of how the world should be and they think, eventually, it will get there.
This leaves them caught in an endless loop of “this is what should have happened” or “that’s so unfair”. When broaching your love life with these ideals, it makes it entirely too hard to move on.
3. SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)
Scorpios are so passionate. They live every breath of their life as a pant. They are constantly trying to catch every moment as fully as they can, leaving room for the next moment so it won’t pass them by. This translates into their romantic life as well.
Scorpios love so hard, and so fully that the loss of that love can be a major trauma for them. Imagine giving your whole self to someone, especially someone who as distrusting as a Scorpio, only to be taught that it was something that was going to end.
And what happens if you give your whole self to something that no longer exists? You walk around in this purgatory. In this weird void space of life. It is nearly impossible to love again in a void.
4. LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
Libras cannot stand being alone. They end of a love affair can easily break them. To a Libra, when they finally find someone to love they tether themselves to that person. In the inevitable un-tethering, it leaves a Libra feeling completely raw.
It is as if their outer dermis was ripped off and a sharp cool breeze is constantly blowing through them. It is too painful. Since Libras are more prone to self-pity than other signs, they will see their emotional baggage as an injustice, something that they didn’t deserve. Instead of fighting for their happy endings, they will just dwell in the pits of their own self-deprecation.
5. VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)
Virgos are the most loyal of the sing, making their love into a safe haven. When the safety of the haven is breached, this can be detrimental to a Virgo. They can also be very critical. They want to be perfect in every aspect of their lives.
Especially their love life. Their approach to heartbreak is different than other signs. They are very methodical. They will go over every single detail to try to understand what went wrong.
They will be hyper focused on what their partner could have done differently, but that is just notes for the supporting cast compared to the self-evaluation they implement.
Virgos will go deep inside themselves reliving every single mistake they made and peeling away at the memory of the relationship, until it is just a pile of slivered regrets.
6. CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
Cancers are very emotional. They become enormously attached to the people in their lives. Cancers love very hard and but lose even harder. They will sit and relive every happy moment with their ex-partner, scoring them to Coldplay’s “Fix You”.
Cancer people hold on to everything of sentimental value, especially the lost loves of their past. Prone to pessimism, these heartbreaking experiences can leave them feeling as if they will never find someone to love. This downtrodden attitude will make it very hard for them to ever move on.
