While it is true that a zodiac sign does not always react in the same way in the event of a breakup, none of them can claim to be immune to the urge to send one last message to their ex. Whether it’s sneaky excuses to show off or the desire to prove that everything is going well in your life. Below is how each zodiac sign interacts with their ex.
Aeries
For this fire sign, when the breakup occurs, the absolute priority is to move away as quickly as possible. The only reason to send a message? Getting reimbursed for half of the concert tickets you were supposed to go to.
Taurus
Breaking up is an art form for this earth sign. To move on, a Taurus uses a five-step process that takes time. This being said, this star sign still has a good chance of writing to their ex, under the influence of alcohol, during the denial phase. But being kind to themself, they will be able to forgive themself and avoid feeling sorry for themself by wallowing in shame the next day.
Gemini
The duality of this sign gives it a rather uncertain approach when it comes to breakups. Either they will obsessively erase all traces of their ex on their social media, or they will continually send them photos of their upcoming first date, there is no in-between.
Cancer
The compassion of this water sign is limitless, they are not known for letting go easily. After a breakup, Cancer is the type to text all the time, to check on the news, to find out how their ex’s mother’s doctor exam went, if they can pick up their ex’s laundry or point out: “You realize that today we have been separated for a year.”
Leo
A lion scorned after a breakup, what’s more if it wasn’t their idea, can quickly become their ex’s worst nightmare. A Leo may tag you accidentally or on purpose in their fabulous vacation or other hectic life moments after a breakup.
Virgo
This careful earth sign is the type to have a plan for everything – and the breakup is one of the pre-programmed files filed neatly in the back of their mind. Even though their nonchalant exterior may not show it, behind the detached “I hope you’re doing well” beats the heart of someone who diligently analyzes everything that went wrong at every step of the way, the reality.
Libra
Harmony is of superior importance in the life of Libra and anything that disrupts the delicate balance of their world must be regularized as quickly as possible. Hesitant by nature, this sign will have a difficult time making the first move, but their won’t want you to think they’re rejecting your advances if you reach out. To avoid losing their ex, Libra is willing to keep them in their friendship circle, a texting relationship based entirely on sharing funny memes.
Scorpio
This fire sign is often too proud to show paid after a breakup, not to mention they have a bit of a masochistic liking for secretly fostering pain for a little too long. Even if they tell their friends that everything is okay, that they are not at all compulsively spying on their ex, there is a good chance that they are not thinking about the right thing, and will need an explanation for why they accidentally followed their ex’s new crush at 3am.
Sagittarius
Breakups are difficult for everyone, but it’s especially hard to know what it’s life for this sign who doesn’t feel comfortable. Sagittarius’s favorite coping mechanism after a breakup is to make new memories until they can message their ex to say “I hope you’re okay” ….and mean it.
Capricorn
Saturn can be a difficult master for this earth sign that values success above all else. A breakup then becomes a personal failure that they will try to repair through prolonged ruminations at 4am: “What went wrong?”
Aquarius
Driven by logic rather than emotions, this progressive sign prefers to look to the future rather than dwelling in the past. When they send a message saying they want to stay friends after a breakup, they’re willing to do the work necessary to prove it, even if that means monitoring your app swipes.
Pisces
For a sign that’s especially fond of love, the fallout from a breakup is bound to be a little intense. After the breakup, be prepared to not only receive recriminations from this sign about everything they did for you, but also accusatory messages from all their friends, like: “You don’t know what you’re missing.”
