5 Zodiac Signs Who Fall For The Wrong Person, Even Though The Red Flags Were There
Don't let yourself fall into the trap.

We grew up, wondering what it meant, and piecing together definitions based on our little love stories and heartbreaks, each moment revealing the truth. Love is blind.
We fall in love helplessly: ignoring red flags, writing off mistakes, and blocking out the worst in the people we love simply because we love them. It's a tough lesson to learn, the people we love may not be worthy of our love.
Falling in love is almost too easy, someone makes you feel all bubbly and jittery, and before you know it, you're thinking about a forever that they play a lead role. It happens to all of us at one point or another.
But what if that person isn't who you think they are? What if you realize down the road that this person you love is cruel, or menacing, or even just plain mean?
We've put together a list of the zodiac signs who were most likely to fall in love with the wrong person.
ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
An Aries is confident and competitive, leading them to look for a partner who presents as the pick of the litter. This means that they may chose someone based largely on looks or popularity rather than on personality and compatibility. Being able to see through a pleasant exterior is a vital skill for an Aries to learn.
GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
A Gemini is another highly sociable sign, which can lead them into a dangerous spot just like an Aries. To be satisfied in a relationship, a Gemini needs someone stable and uncompromising by their side, but their craving for affection may lead them to settle for much less.
CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
Because a Cancer is so deeply attached to the people they care about, it's easy to take advantage of their emotions. You'd hope that people wouldn't do that, but a mean girl knows just how to manipulate that vulnerability. And since Cacers are so loyal, they'll put up with it for much longer than they should.
LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
A Libra will love someone who isn't good enough for them simply because they see the alternative as being alone. They'll fall in love and become convinced that this person is the only one for them, leading them down a path of a destructive relationship. Their sense of self pity will even convince them that they deserve this, when the truth is that they've done nothing to deserve this treatment.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
One of the biggest pet peeves to a Saggitarius is someone clingy. This means that they'll invest in somone who doesn't want to be around all the time, who doesn't demand time together. But if they swing too far from that, they'll end up with someone toxic who won't give them the time of day.
