Libra treats everyone fairly during a breakup... or do they?
By Njeri Dean — Written on Nov 18, 2021
Everyone experiences breakups differently.
Once the dumping is done, some signs choose to be amicable with their ex; however, for a Libra woman, once the relationship has ended, don't expect to ever get her back.
Though each zodiac sign in astrology has a unique way of breaking up with others, Libra's ways may cause huge heartbreak.
What Happens When A Libra Woman Is Done With You
When a Libra woman decides it's time to leave, she will let you know, whether it's by flat-out ignoring you with the cold shoulder, distancing herself from you, or refusing to put effort into your partnership.
Some zodiac signs tend to be forgiving, letting their exes or soon-to-be exes off the hook; Libra will do no such thing when discontent. Her usual attitude of fairness goes right out the window, and instead she might become uninterested, manipulative, rude, indifferent, and set on revenge.
Libras are obsessed with having everyone they meet play by the rules. They are the true judges in life and want everybody to treat people the way they want to be treated. Libra usually aligns with academia and people who burst with intelligent energy.
The Libra zodiac sign doesn't break up with people unless they are absolutely sure it's not working, or think their partner deserves better. Always wanting an equal playing field, Libras will justify parting ways with their partner with justifiable explanations and proof that their relationship isn't working to full capacity.
Breaking up is something we all dread, but Libras have an aura of fairness and won't dump someone unless its fair to the person they are with.
However, despite how fair they seem, a Libra scorned is bound to break your heart.
With that in mind, here's how Libra will break your heart after a breakup.
Aries (March 21 - April 21)
Libras feel that they aren't compatible with Aries. Always being controlled and told what to do isn't appealing to Libra and they won't put up with it.
Believing in a fair world, Libras will want to feel like they are in an equal partnership instead of an indentured servitude. Aries is a born leader and dishes out orders; it's in their blood.
Libras want to be your other half and not a person that just falls in line. Libras know that moving on from Aries will be a relief because they will have more freedom and time to find someone they are more in tune with.
Seeing how the relationship was controlling, Libras will probably not have an amicable breakup with an Aries, and will probably leave feeling distraught. Not returning Aries' phone call will send the message that it's over.
Taurus (April 21 - March 20)
Taurus is the perfect mate, always grounded and looking at things with possibility and opportunity. Libra loves Taurus' outlook on life and positive energy. If the going gets tough for Libra, breaking up with Taurus is a possibility.
Having a partner that is too good to be true can be scary, and Libras think that having flaws makes the people you love normal. Libras don't need a perfect relationship; they need a real relationship that includes imperfections.
Libras will probably break up with Taurus over dinner and explain why the relationship isn't panning out.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Libras and Geminis are compatible! They fit each other because they are curious about life and are intellectuals. Although they are compatible, it doesn't mean they are a match made in heaven.
Geminis can be all over the place and can be perceived as being a wild child at times. Never predictable or controllable, at times they are off the wall and spontaneous. They rely on being fair and having some type of order.
Libras know that Geminis are fun to be around, but when the going gets tough, they are out of mind and out of sight, and Libras don't want to put up with that anymore. Breaking up will be better over text for Libra to avoid confrontation.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Cancers are the most selfless zodiac signs to ever touch the earth. They want to help everybody and everything. Libras love that their partner loves to give their time and energy to causes and organizations that mean a lot to them.
Libra's only fear is that while they are saving the world, they are neglecting time to connect. Libras don't want to seem needy, but feel their time is not needed by their Cancer partner. Libra's time is not to be wasted.
Breaking up with Cancer will be by phone, because Libras are never physically there for you anyway.
Leo (July 23 - August 22)
Leos embody being independent. Leos are so determined to do everything on their own that they neglect the people right in front of them. Life and work are suffering because Leos want to have all the success without anybody helping them.
We all need help, but Leos just want to hack it alone. Libras know that this type of attitude from Leo is draining them, physically and emotionally. Libras don't want to put up with this behavior but don't want to upset their partner.
Libras aren't compatible with Leos in the first place, but trying something new to Libra is exciting and opens new horizons. Breaking up will be tense, so Libras will opt to write a letter and just walk away.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Virgos have a personality that is uptight, and they never leave anything to chance. They look at everything with a fine tooth comb, and scrutinize everything and everyone put in front of them. Libras love that they aren't careless and remember birthdays or anniversaries.
But being uptight comes with its drawbacks, and Libras know it. Having spontaneity and thinking on the fly are difficult for Virgo. Not knowing when to just do things when not given orders also don't come easily to Virgo.
Libras don't want to break up with Virgo, but if they don't relax, Libra is afraid they will implode. Breaking up may be the solution.
Libra's style of breaking up for Virgo would be getting into a heated argument and storming out. With a lot of hostility, dating Virgo doesn't seem worth it to Libra.
Libra (September 23 - October 22)
Libras know that breaking up with a sign that is similar to their own will be difficult, because they have the same tendencies. Libras know that opposites attract, and are tired of dealing with their own personality, because their attitude is so predictable and repetitive.
Dating a zodiac sign that mirrors themselves will grow tiresome to Libra, and the lights will eventually burn out. It's cool to have a partner with the same qualities as you, but Libra likes signs that have different values and characteristics so the relationship doesn't get too predictable.
Calling over the phone and explaining why the relationship isn't a good fit is how Libras break up with their own zodiac sign.
Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
Scorpios are passionate and very intimate with their partners. They know when to turn on the charm to make their partners happy and satisfied. Once determined to do something, Scorpios will finish something, no matter how hard; they will finish a task and reach their destination.
Their passion may be too intense for Libra. Libras know that their passion runs deep, and if something breaks their focus they are prone to snap. Libras know to walk a fine line with Scorpio and don't want to feel that way.
For their well being, Libras will break up with Scorpio to keep their sanity. Having a friendship with Scorpio is also highly unlikely. Texting to inform Scorpio of their breakup is just fine for Libra.
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
Sagittarians are open to going on the road and having an adventure. Backpacking around a foreign country and finding new people to hang out with is a good time, instead of sitting at home and watching TV or playing board games.
Libras love that Sagittarians are adventurous, but that means they are on the go and never in one place at one time. Libras want to put roots in one place and settle down, and Libras know that Sagittarius don't want to settle down anytime soon.
Libras know they had their fun, but they want somebody serious about settling down. Breaking up while on the road or while walking down the street is how Libra would break up with Sagittarius.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
Capricorns are the zodiac signs that need to plan ahead to make things happen. Capricorns don't just plan on the fly, and if they do, it's because they are in a dire situation. Always seeking to know what needs to be done and implementing great leadership, their work life and personality are better than ever.
Libras appreciate Capricorn's ready and prepared personality, and feel they have won the lottery. Libras are tired of the structure though, and want them to take a leap of faith with their lives and not play it safe.
Structure is so boring all the time, and Libras need a yin to their yang. They always play by the rules and need a sign that wants to break the rules, too.
Breaking up won't be simple. Since Libras knows that sitting down with Capricorn and talking face to face will be the only reasonable way to break up, that's exactly what they'll do.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
Aquarius is on the shy and timid side. Libras know that it takes forever for Aquarians to warm up to people. Libras don't think Aquarius is ready to be in the real world and feels embarrassed to bring people around them. Libras deserve better and question why they entered this relationship in the first place.
Libras don't want to break up with Aquarius because they don't want to upset them, but it's best for Libra's well being and future. Being friends after the breakup is questionable.
Confrontation is not a great way for Libra to break up with Aquarius, and they will text or write a letter to let Aquarius know they want to break things off.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Pisces is a Water sign bound by emotions and empathy. They can't overlook people, and if they do they feel guilty for it. Their zodiac sign makes them gravitate towards people and make friends with individuals who aren't like them.
Libras question whether they should break up with Pisces, because they don't have a selfish bone in their body. Libras want something different, and don't know what it is, but it's not with Pisces.
Friendship is a strong possibility, but will challenge Libra. Talking over the phone about a possible friendship is how Libras will break up with Pisces.
