4 Zodiacs Who Struggle To Settle Into A Long-Term Relationship

For some people, settling into a romantic relationship is as easy as slipping into a lukewarm bath. Sensing some potential future with their significant others, these people approach their relationships with admirable levels of dedication, ensuring a healthy, productive romance for each party involved. For a select number of people, though, the idea of committing to a long-term partner can be a tad intimidating, forcing them to confront the complicated feelings they harbor towards their significant other. 

Aries

Your eyes are forever scanning the horizon, Aries, searching for that next great adventure calling your name. A fiery free-spirit propelled by your emotional worldview, you typically throw caution to the wind regarding any and all opportunities that come your way. Acting without fully thinking about the consequences of your decisions, you tend to shrug away any chance at building a long-lasting relationship, preferring to look towards your next romantic encounter rather than dwelling on what might have been.

Gemini

You value your personal degree of freedom–almost to a fault. Dodging as many responsibilities in your personal life as possible, you want to live life according to your own set designs, rather than conforming to someone else’s rules. Constantly searching for new ways to occupy your time, you bounce between numerous friendships and romantic flings, hoping to satisfy your insatiable desire for companionship. Struggling to commit to anything in life, for you, verbally saying “I love you” is akin to getting down on one knee and proposing, leading you to grow cold feet whenever you’re presented with a chance at a serious relationship.

Capricorn

You excel in situations with a clear goal in mind, doing everything you can to ensure that envisioned goal comes to fruition, be it early retirement or handing in a finished term paper weeks before its due date. When it comes to matters of the heart, however, you can’t help but feel out of your element, leading you to wander aimlessly down a path of emotions with no end in sight. Struggling to figure out what either you or your significant other might want out of a relationship, you find the prospect of a long-term romance more than a little daunting, growing frustrated whenever things don’t go the exact way you originally planned.

Aquarius

Deep down, Aquarians don’t want to be alone. Striving for companionship and a sense of belonging, you adore the idea of sharing your life with someone else, forming a fundamental human connection to enrich and expand your worldview. In contrast to these romantic hopes, however, you also want to retain some semblance of personal independence, allowing you to enjoy life without sacrificing your coveted sense of freedom. Holding your partners at arms’ length away, whenever anyone wants to grow closer to you, you instantly start to feel smothered. When they begin to drift further away, you sagely nod to yourself, feeling that your cynical view of relationships has ultimately been proven true.
