Dating Red Flags to Watch Out for Based on Your Zodiac Sign

Sometimes the stars just don’t align. Welcome to MsMojo and today we’ll be sharing our picks for Dating Red Flags to Watch Out for Based on Your Zodiac Sign. We’ve taken a look at all twelve signs of the western zodiac to offer a little relationship advice. Of course, this is meant to be for fun; don’t worry too much if you think these suggestions don’t apply! Aries (circa March 20- April 20) They're Unmotivated Aries, one of the fire-iest in all the zodiac, like to get things done They are very goal-oriented, motivated, and intense. With so much determination, they don't have the energy or the time to be chasing after someone who is not already committed to them and to goals of their own. Apathetic and indifferent partners will drive a head-strong Aries bonkers. If they want you to put all the work into the relationship or, worst of all, actively try to hold you back from your dreams, it’s time for you to ram them out the door! Taurus (circa April 20-May 21) They’re Stubborn, They Try to Rush / Change You Taurus people, like their bull namesake, tend to be very stubborn. To be paired with another likewise unmovable force will only spell disaster. However, for all their doggedness, Tauruses are very comfort oriented, preferring to take it slow and indulge in the good things in life. They like stability in their home and to have plans made well-ahead of time. If you’re a Taurus, any partner who tries to rush you, or worse change your comfort zones too drastically, is likely to get the horns. Gemini (circa May 21-June 21) They’re a Bad Communicator Gemini are natural communicators. Adaptable and easy-going (even if at times impulsive and a bit nosy), a Gemini tends to be forthright and social. Enthusiastic conversationalists, a partner who is close-lipped and keeps their feelings to themselves will drive a Gemini nuts. High levels of aloofness will make the overly analytical Gemini anxious. If you find yourself putting way too much energy into encouraging a partner to open up, it might be best to find someone more gregarious to put you at ease. Cancer (circa June 21-July 23) They’re Inconsiderate, Need Mothering Cancers tend to be sensitive, nurturing individuals who prefer the company of a close-knit group made up of harmonious friends rather than a huge group of unreliable acquaintances. A brash, self-centered partner who disrupts the sensitive peace a Cancer enjoys will be upsetting. Persons and partners inconsiderate of the needs of others will make a Cancer crabby in no time flat. You also have to watch out for those who would take advantage of your caring nature. You want a partner, not an adult child. Leo (circa July 23-August 23) They Steal Your Thunder, Are a Bad Communicator Leos are famously self-centered – to both good and bad degrees. They love to be the center of attention and require a caring partner that likewise makes them feel like they are the center of their world. Leos need someone who will communicate their affection to them on a regular basis, and who will selflessly step aside to let them shine in the relationship. Therefore, anyone who tries to overshadow a Leo or leaves them feeling neglected is not a good fit. A loved Leo is incredibly loyal, so if a Leo finds they are losing interest – due to inattention, being eclipsed, or otherwise – it really is over. Virgo (circa August 23-September 23) They’re Too Spontaneous, You Have to "Fix" Them Virgos are generally sweet and meticulous. They notice the little details, love to help, and prefer the slow and steady approach to most everything. This makes them good friends as well as partners, so a bad friend is the last thing they need in a partner. While they might be attracted to the bad boys/girls, a little danger, and someone to "fix" at first, Virgos will not be able to stand it for long and will be unhappy by the constant energy drain. If you're a Virgo and your partner is mean to others or too much work, they've got to go. Libra (circa September 23-October 23) They Want All Your Time, They Want None of Your Time; They Don't Contribute, They Over-Contribute Libras want balance, but usually what that means is they want the final say. Libras tend to take on a lot of work, so a partner who pitches in (at the same level) is perfect. However, a partner who is PERCEIVED to contribute too little will make a Libra feel unappreciated, while a partner who over-contributes and calls all the shots will make a Libra feel smothered. Likewise, Libras are incredibly social. Problems can arise from a partner either wanting all of the Libra’s time (when they'd rather hang out with 100 different friends), or none of it and isolates themselves (as the Libra will want to hang with their partner, too!) Like we said, it's all about balance. Scorpio (circa October 23-November 22) They're a Snoop Scorpios love secrets – having them, that is! Other people, they'd prefer were an open book. A Scorpio likes stability but also to have the upper hand and will try to learn as much about their partner as possible – by any means necessary. An open, communicative partner is a perfect fit. What a Scorpio HATES is if they get the same treatment, with someone snooping into their own private life and secrets. Scorpios are best suited with a partner who is up-front, but also respects their privacy. A prying partner is liable to get stung. Sagittarius (circa November 22-December 22) They’re Needy, Boring Sagittarius people love to do their own thing. Adventurous and confident, their favorite part of a relationship is when it is new and exciting. A Sagittarius is happiest with someone who is as fiercely independent as they are and who finds ways to keep things fresh and exhilarating. So, a surefire way to drive a Sagittarius crazy is to get too clingy. If you're a Sagittarius and your partner is trying to settle too quickly or is constantly in your space, it might be time to put the relationship out to pasture. Capricorn (circa December 22-January 20) They’re Unreliable, Drama Magnets Capricorns tend to be reliable if at times aloof partners. They love their family (found family or born), so a partner who does not cherish that familial closeness will seem alien to them. The stable Capricorn tends not to require big, fireworks kinds of love, which to a grandiose, romantic partner can make them seem distant and even cold. But that's not the case; Capricorns just can't stand drama. A partner who demands too much attention, can’t be depended on, or who seems to be staging a Broadway review every other day is just going to be a headache. Aquarius (circa January 20-February 18) They’re a Promise Breaker Aquarians are independent to the point that relationships are not necessary. Not that they don’t love them when they are in them! But if an Aquarius is going to divide their precious independence and time for someone else, they want someone they can count on. Assertive, analytical, and original, a partner an Aquarius can depend on is key; they have to be able to keep up! If the chosen partner of an Aquarius has a habit of letting them down or regularly breaks promises, it's time to toss them like old bath water. Pisces (circa February 19-March 20) They’re Selfish, Unfocused Pisces tend to be thoughtful, detail-oriented, introverts. A Pisces will frequently put the needs of others before their own. As sensitive individuals, they need this care reciprocated. A partner who just takes and never gives back will hurt a Pisces. Pisces also tend to be perfectionists. This obsessive attention to detail can lead them to lose sight of the big picture, become overwhelmed, and adopt avoidance tendencies. Ultimately, Pisces thrive when they are in a supportive relationship and kept on track. Therefore, a partner who does not meet their emotional needs or who derails their goals should have a Pisces remembering that there are other fish in the sea.
