Is He Over You? How To Tell, By Zodiac Sign
Here are the warning signs that show he's no longer in love.
Unsplash Can you really tell if a man is no longer interested in a relationship? The short answer is 'yes'. A man will let off certain signals that reveal if he's over you and not in love any more.
You may not ever know the reason why he feels this way either. There are many reasons why your relationship might feel like it’s on the rocks.
Stress from outside of the relationship, stress from inside the relationship, feelings of pressure or inadequacy, and mental health problems. Sometimes your zodiac signs are simply less compatible than he needs, and he wants to move on.
The list of things that can affect your relationship could go on and on.

The point is, you never really know why your relationship feels like it’s going downhill until you talk to your partner. That’s one thing we all have to remember. It can be easy to assume that we’re the problem, or that whatever is going on with our partner will eventually shake itself out, but what good does that really do?
All that you’re really doing is sweeping serious issues under the rug. You wouldn’t ignore a physical injury to your body, hoping it will heal itself, right? I hope that you would take direct action to fix whatever was hurting, just like you would hopefully do whatever you could to save your relationship.

Of course, we can go above and beyond, try to understand a person's astrology and horoscope's needs in order to save or mend a broken relationship, but at the end of the day, you can’t force someone to stay in the love just isn’t there anymore. It’s a hard truth to swallow, but it’s a truth nonetheless.
Having someone you love push you away can be heartbreaking. We often – and justifiably so – take our relationships for granted. When you’re with someone who makes everything feel easy, like love and support and kindness, we don’t spend every waking moment sure that it’s all going to fall apart.
So, when we do find ourselves in situations where the love seems to disappear from our relationship, it can take us by surprise. You might even start blaming yourself for your relationship failing. But even if the relationship isn’t making him happy anymore, it doesn’t mean you’re to blame.
Until you know for sure what your partner wants out of the relationship, it’s important to change your behavior to keep the relationship afloat. That might mean giving him space when he asks for it, letting him talk out what he’s feeling without interruption, and even disengaging yourself from the relationship instead of forcing yourself to work harder, hoping it’ll make him happier.
These techniques might work, but there’s also the possibility that he just isn’t in love with you anymore. And if that’s the conclusion he comes to, it’s up to you to find your happiness elsewhere. Like I said, we can’t force people to love us, but we can be active in our search to find people who DO love us.
And, more importantly, make it easy to feel loved and appreciated. Before that can happen, you need to know for sure how he feels about the relationship. Here’s how to know if he isn’t in love anymore, based on his zodiac sign.
ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
You can tell Aries isn’t in love anymore when he stops including you in his life. Whether he’s making plans over the weekend, or he’s getting ready to make dinner, you might find yourself being asked to join to help him less and less.
When Aries loves and cares for someone, he wants to spend as much time as possible with that person. He values quality time because it’s easy, yet meaningful. If he isn’t choosing to include you in his plans – or even letting you know what he’s up to – he’s probably not in love anymore.
TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)
A Taurus isn’t in love anymore when he stops confiding in you. One of the most important things to Taurus is having someone he can trust and count on. This is true in general, but especially true for relationships.
If it feels like he’s hiding things from you, or simply not opening up as much anymore, he’s probably not feeling the love anymore. Taurus tends to become very vulnerable when he’s in a relationship because he feels like he can trust you, but if the love is gone, he’ll put up his walls again.
GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
One thing you should know about Gemini is that he would do just about anything for the people he cares most about. If he’s in love with someone – or even just someone’s friend – he’ll give that person his undivided attention and energy.
Gemini isn’t in love anymore when he becomes more distracted around you. Sure, there are times when he might have something on his mind, but he still makes an effort to give you the attention you deserve. Not really giving you the time of day or listening any more means his mind is elsewhere.
CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
You can tell a Cancer isn’t in love anymore when he starts isolating you from his family and friends. Family and friends are everything to Cancer – he’s probably the zodiac sign most likely to introduce you to them within the first few weeks of dating.
There’s a good chance he’s already confided in his support system about how he’s not in love anymore, which means he’s trying to save your feeling by keeping you separated from each other. It’s his way of distancing himself from the relationship for good.
LEO (July 23 - August 22)
A big part of Leo’s relationships is mutual adoration and affection. You can tell when he’s in love because he can’t get enough of telling you how wonderful you are, and you can’t help but return the favor. If he’s NOT in love anymore, this will be severely lacking.
Not only does Leo doesn’t see a point in being all lovey-dovey with you anymore, but when he’s not in love anymore, he becomes apathetic. He doesn’t care what you think of him anymore, and he probably doesn’t think much of you, either. He’s just ready to move on at this point.
VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)
When Virgo isn’t in love anymore, you can tell by the way he stops caring for the relationship. When Virgo IS in love, he is a very attentive, generous lover who only wants the best for his partner. In fact, he’s always going out of his way to serve you.
When his feelings fade, he stops putting so much effort into the relationship. It’s like continuing to water a dead plant, in his mind. It won’t be long after you notice these signs that he breaks it off. Virgo isn’t one to stick around longer than he has to after his feelings change.
LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
One of the main things that sets Libra apart from the rest of the zodiac signs is his commitment to romance. When Libra is in love, he injects romance into every day he’s with his partner. From grand gestures likes a candlelit dinner or small ones like good morning texts, he truly does prove that he’s in love.
When a Libra isn’t in love anymore, he stops being his usual romantic self. He might still try to protect your feelings by saying that he’s too busy or tired for romance, but he really just isn’t feeling it anymore. This is a hard time for both of you, and he’s probably unsure of what to do.
SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)
Scorpio loves intensely, which means it’s almost impossible not to tell when he’s head over heels for you. It might take him a while before he can totally open up to you, but he shows his love for you in other ways.
When Scorpio isn’t in love anymore, he stops giving and sharing everything that he has to you. No more sharing secrets, no more coming to you for advice or to tell you he loves you – Scorpio can become very cold and withholding.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
Sagittarius is known for keeping his relationships casual and cool, but when he’s really in love, all of that can change. When Sagittarius meets someone that he really enjoys being around, he will really make an effort to build a future with that person.
When Sagittarius isn’t in love anymore, he stops trying to plan a future with you. Maybe he feels like he can’t grow with you anymore, or he thinks that you two are just not on the same wavelength, but when he stops talking long term, you know it’s over.
CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)
Capricorn will always make time for the people he loves. He may be a very busy bee, but when you mean something fierce to him, he makes sure you know it without a shred of doubt.
When Capricorn isn’t in love anymore, he stops making time for you. He doesn’t see you as a valuable investment anymore, so he stops putting his time and effort into the relationship. It’s harsh – and of course, very noticeable – but he doesn’t like to beat around the bush.
AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)
When an Aquarius isn’t in love anymore, it can be hard to tell. He tends to move on emotional before he does physically, so it might be hard to know for sure that he’s done with the relationship until he finally comes out with it.
An Aquarius will open up to someone if he really loves and cares for them, but once he’s moved on emotionally, he’ll keep his true feelings under lock and key. You might notice a pretty cold personality, him keeping you at arm’s length, and him not letting you in like he used to.
PISCES (February 19 - March 20)
You know Pisces isn’t in love anymore when he starts acting distant. He no longer feels like he can relate to you, and he’s done trying to make things work when he’s not feeling it in his heart anymore.
Pisces wants to be with someone who understands him and makes romance easy. If he’s acting distant around you, he’s decided that he’s not going to find the understanding and love that he needs from this relationship anymore.
