Aries

(March 21st to April 19th)

You pretend you don’t care, you want to put on a strong exterior and let the world see how tough you are. But underneath that cold layer you’re showing off to the world you can’t help but feel heartbroken and afraid you’re not good enough.

Taurus

(April 20th to May 21st)

You don’t adjust well to change, making being single hard for you after being a couple for so long. You try to be strong and let your sign power you through, but you often find yourself sad and lonely. You crave the familiarity and you want your partner back. You romanticize him in your head to keep the good memories alive.

Gemini

(May 22nd to June 21st)

You do not like feeling weak and you especially don’t want the heartbreak to control you. You just do your best to put your feelings to the side and move on without them.

Cancer

(June 22nd to July 22nd)

You move on slowly because you have a hard time letting go of the past. You like to cling to memories and think about how good things were because you can’t help but feel sad. You will beat yourself up over what you could have done better.

Leo

(July 23rd to August 22nd)

You have a lot of pride in you, so having your heart broken bruises you internally a little bit, but you keep moving forward. You are slightly fearful of being hurt again because you are afraid of the same outcome.

Virgo

(August 23rd to September 22nd)

You try to prepare yourself for anything bad that’s coming your way, but a heartbreak doesn’t help cushion the blow. You try to distract yourself from other thinking your situation, but it’s hard and you’re struggling which is perfectly understandable.

Libra

(September 23rd to October 22nd)

A broken heart makes you feel self-conscious and leads to insecurities, but you’re a naturally charming and uplifting person so you don’t have problems getting back on your feet. But that still doesn’t mean you won’t feel pain for a while.

Scorpio

(October 23rd to November 22nd)

You are a mess of feelings, you feel everything so deeply and whole-heartedly. You are sad and angry and hurt. You just want these feelings to pass, but you know that days still a ways away.

Sagittarius

(November 23rd to December 21st)

You don’t want to allow a broken heart to hold you back so you’re constantly trying to occupy your mind so you can keep moving forward with your life. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt on the inside, but you do a good job of only keeping the pain on the inside.

Capricorn

(December 22nd to January 20th)

You feel sad at first, but then you use the heart break to motivate you. You don’t let it get you down or hold you back, instead you let it inspire you to do better. You use the new motivation you feel to try to block it out from your mind.

Aquarius

(January 21st to February 18th)

You have a difficult time handing your whole heart over to someone for this reason, so you feel hurt and betrayed. The heart break makes you feel a little insecure about yourself, but ultimately you know your worth and just how strong you really are.

Pisces

(February 19th to March 20th)

You are a very emotional person and you are spending your break up feeling sad and sorry for yourself. It makes you feel unworthy of love and like somewhere you went wrong. You feel the heartbreak full force and drag it out, making sure everyone knows your pain until you find the strength to heal. Thought Catalog Logo Mark
