Aries: March 21st-April 19th

You were always down to try something new.

When it comes to new adventures and experiencing, people can always count on you to excitedly jump on board. In your relationships, you’re always ready to try new things and bond with your partner through them. When your partner left, they found themselves missing your willingness to break out of the norm and do something spontaneous, and their life has just felt incredibly boring without you in it.

Taurus: April 20th-May 20th

You weren’t afraid to commit to them.

In a society that really pushes for people to keep their options open and “play the game” in their dating lives, you stand out from the crowd. You aren’t one to mess around when you’ve found someone you’re interested in, and you let your partner know from the start that you were all in, no mixed signals. When they left, they realized just how rare it is to find someone like that, and how nice it was to have someone fully invested in them, and now they can’t stop thinking about what they lost.

Gemini: May 21st-June 20th

You opened their eyes to all sorts of possibilities, people, and places.

You like to put your foot in the door of every opportunity you can, and it usually leads to some pretty memorable situations. You enjoy getting to know new people, exploring new places, and learning new things on a daily basis and you always want to include your partner in on these moments as well. When they left, they felt the very overwhelming void that used to be filled with all of your experiences, and now that you’ve opened their eyes to so much more in the world, they honestly wish they could have you back to experience more of it.

Cancer: June 21st-July 22nd

You loved them harder than anyone ever has.

You fall hard whenever you fall in love with someone, and though you may come off as shy and reserved to most, you still love people in a huge way. You go out of your way to show your partner how much you care for them and you bend over backward to make them happy (almost to a fault). When they left you, they may have thought they would feel freer, but the reality set in that no one else has ever loved them in that way and they’ll be hard pressed to ever find someone like that again. And they honestly regret that they didn’t know what they had when they had it.

Leo: July 23rd-August 22nd

You weren’t afraid to be unapologetically yourself.

Let’s just be honest: Having confidence is an insanely attractive quality, and you have it in spades. You know you’re not perfect, but you also genuinely believe you have a lot to offer the world, and you aren’t afraid to be yourself in any respect. You know exactly what you want and what you deserve, so when you enter into a relationship, it’s not a small thing and your partner discovers that quickly. When they left, they recognized just how valuable it is to be with someone who isn’t afraid to be themselves, even when the world tries to pressure them otherwise. They honestly regret walking away because with you, what they saw was exactly what they got, and it’s incredibly hard to find someone so comfortable in their own skin like that.

Virgo: August 23rd-September 22nd

You always pushed them to be better.

Do you tend to be a perfectionist? Yes. Can you be a bit critical of yourself and your loved ones? Oh yes. Yet your desire to point out issues and fix things in your relationships truly does come from a place of wanting your partner to be the best possible version of themselves, and too often we don’t push ourselves enough in that regard. When your partner left, they may have initially felt relief from not having someone nit-pick them, but over time they realized how much better of a person they became when they kicked those bad habits you forced them to confront, and they honestly wish they had appreciated you more when they were with you.

Libra: September 23rd-October 22nd

You truly did everything you could to make them happy.

You like to keep your life and relationships as happy and calm as you’re capable of doing, and anyone who has witnessed that knows you go to great lengths to achieve it. You believe that love is about give and take, about balance and harmony, and when you love someone then you don’t hesitate to do anything and everything to make them happy (and you hope they will do the same for you). When they left, they didn’t realize just how uncommon it is to have someone truly go out of their way to make them happy, because this world tends to promote an “every man for himself” vibe when it comes to dating. They honestly regret taking you for granted and know they’ll have a hard time finding someone who cared for them like you did.

Scorpio: October 23rd-November 21st

They haven’t met anyone who brought as much passion into their life as you.

Though you admit that you can be a lot to handle, you also make it worth it with your strong passion and deep devotion to your relationships. You aren’t easy to please or very trusting, but you do show your love in a very unforgettable way. When your partner left, they honestly thought they might be dodging a bullet, but they still find themselves reminiscing about how much passion and excitement you brought to their lives, and the whole-heartedly regret letting you go because they know they’ll never come across anyone like you ever again.

Sagittarius: November 22nd-December 21st

You were always able to cheer them up, no matter what.

You don’t like to take life too seriously, and in a world that is constantly telling people to settle down and fixate on being serious, your presence is incredibly refreshing. When it comes to your relationships, you know that life isn’t always happy or positive all the time, but when hard moments come you have a charming and effortless way of making your partner smile or laugh in even the most distressing of situations. When your partner left, they honestly found themselves missing all the joy and humor you brought into their lives every day, and they know it will be next to impossible to meet someone like you again.

Capricorn: December 22nd-January 19th

You were tirelessly loyal and dedicated.

Though you tend to view relationships in a negative light, this isn’t always the case. You may not be the most romantic sign in the zodiac, but you certainly will work hard and take the time to truly invest and care for someone that you’ve fallen for. When your partner left, they found themselves realizing just how dedicated and loyal you were to them, which is rare to find in the modern dating scene. They honestly regret not valuing those things about you when they had the chance, and know that finding someone else who matches you on that level is just a lost cause.

Aquarius: January 20th-February 18th

You opened their eyes to the world around them.

When it comes to exploring new ideas, concepts, and causes, people know they can turn to you in a heartbeat. When you’re in a relationship, you aren’t just interested in focusing on just the two of you, but on allowing the two of you to be part of something bigger in the world. You go out of your way to show your partner the world through your own eyes, as well as encouraging them to help you in changing it for the better. When they left, they thought they could simply go back to the way the viewed things before, but they know they can’t—you’ve changed the way they see the world around them. They honestly regret letting you go because they truly believe you’ve helped them be a more self-aware and all around better person.

Pisces: February 19th-March 20th

You listened to them when they needed someone.

In a world that tries to devalue sensitive people and push us to keep our emotions to ourselves coming across someone like you is such an incredible thing. You aren’t afraid to dive deep into emotional territory, and you particularly love when you’re able to do this for someone you’re in a relationship with. You always offer your shoulder to cry on and encourage them to talk out what they’re feeling, even when it’s hard. When they left, they realized just how important it was to have someone like that in their lives, and how incredibly patient and loving you were with them when they needed you. They truly regret walking away from you, because now they find it hard to find anyone who listened to them the way you did.
