5 Zodiac Signs Who Stay In Passionless Relationships, According To Astrology
Don't they care that they're missing out?
getty It's easy to judge people who stay in relationships that lack passion. Clearly, these people are settling, and they’d rather stay in a safe relationship than go out and find someone new or remain alone.
Are these people weak, scared, or too comfortable? When we say passionless do we mean there's no intimacy, no love, and no shared interests, or just that the excitement has gone out of the relationship? Doesn’t everybody deserve a relationship that’s passionate? What kind of person would stay in a passionless relationship?
For the zodiac signs who stay in passionless relationships, there's a lot to say about which personality traits in astrology make them less likely to leave.
It could be for many reasons. If there are kids involved or they express that side of themselves in other ways, a person might not have any inclination to end their relationship. Or, companionship may mean more to you than passion, or maybe you express your passion in ways other than physical or emotional.
There's the belief that a relationship without passion will not survive. But we need to accept that not everybody wants the same things in a relationship, and if their choice is to remain, we need to respect their decision.
1. Libra (September 23 - October 22)
Libras hate confrontations and conflict, and if they want to get out of a relationship that had no passion, they would have to do a lot of things they don't enjoy. It's better to keep things as they are and look for the good in their relationship. If Libra has to detach emotionally, they will.
Libras would rather feel nothing than be in pain. Some even have a hard time making decisions that a breakup would entail. For them, the easiest thing to do would be to stay in the relationship and hope their partner takes control of the situation.
2. Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Pisces are extremely kind, compassionate, and they don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, especially their partners. They will try to ignore the fact that there's no passion and will express that desire in outside projects such as in their art.
Sometimes just don't want to take away their focus and energy from their creative projects to try and deal with their passionless relationship. Pisces are often happiest in the world of their imaginations, and they have a rich fantasy life to express their untapped passions. Sometimes comfortable is good enough.
3. Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Love and family are the most important things in Cancers' life, and they're not going to jeopardize the happiness of their children for anything. If they're in a passionless relationship, Cancer is going to focus on the things that are working in the relationship.
Is their partner a good father, caregiver, or listener? Are they kind and generous? Cancers are skilled at finding the good in people and relationships. More than anything, they need a stable home life, even if they have to sacrifice passion to get it.
4. Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Since Virgos can be very analytical, they look at their passionless relationship and see beyond what's missing, thinking instead of how to fix it. They can fix nearly anything and that includes their own relationships. They'll do the research, go to couple's therapy with their partner, and do whatever needs to be done to get that spark back.
If the relationship remains passionless, Virgo will learn how to live with it in that state. There are times when change is overwhelming to Virgo, and it feels better to make peace with what's lacking in their relationship.
5. Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
Capricorns are wise and know that relationships are constantly changing, but that doesn't mean it's easy for them to adjust. They are patient enough to wait and see if passion can be put back into their relationship, but if not, Capricorn looks for ways to be content with the way the relationship is now.
If a Capricorn is compelled to change their life, they'll do it slowly over time so it lasts. They prize having a secure financial foundation and people around who love them. Trust, stability, and safety are more important to Capricorn than passion.
