4 Zodiacs Who Would Rather Keep Their Options Open Than Commit

Some zodiacs are eager to commit to one person that they can picture spending forever alongside because they want that future to start as soon as possible. Theyโ€™re excited to settle down and give up the dating life for good. However, other signs are scared of committing to the wrong person. They donโ€™t want to make a choice too early and end up regretting it in the future. Here are some zodiacs who are more likely to keep their options open instead of committing while theyโ€™re young:

Gemini

Geminis are terrified of living a life with regrets. They would rather keep their options open and say single so that they wonโ€™t have to turn down a great person that comes along. This might sound selfish, but really, they are trying their hardest not to hurt anyone. They donโ€™t want to commit to the wrong person and break their heart. Since they arenโ€™t positive what they want, they feel like itโ€™s safer to be single. Itโ€™s safer to keep their heart to themselves so that they donโ€™t end up making a huge mistake and breaking a good personโ€™s heart when they decide they really should leave.ย 

Aries

Aries are spontaneous, and theyโ€™re worried that a relationship will stop them from going on wild adventures. Until they can find a partner who is willing to keep up with their speed, they are going to keep their options open. Their restlessness makes it hard for them to settle down anyway. Itโ€™s hard for them to remain in one place for long. Even though they might want to settle down eventually, they value their independence too much to pick the first person they find and marry them. They would rather play it safe and be picky. They would rather find their perfect person than any person.

Aquarius

Even though itโ€™s a myth that a relationship will hold you down, this sign is scared that itโ€™s the reality. They value their freedom and have big dreams that they wish to achieve. Theyโ€™re scared of picking the wrong person and then missing out on the opportunity to move across the country on a whim or accept a new career position that will make them happy. This sign values other aspects of their life above their relationships, which is why they might keep their options open for a while. They donโ€™t want to commit to one type of life. They want to know that they have options.

Scorpio

Scorpios are scared to commit because theyโ€™re worried about having their hearts broken. They donโ€™t want to go through the pain of realizing that theyโ€™ve chosen the wrong person, so they would rather stay single for as long as possible. Even though they might be interested in one special person, leaving their options open makes the possibility of heartbreak way less intimidating. After all, if they arenโ€™t committed to anyone, that person canโ€™t break their heart too badly. At least, thatโ€™s what they tell themselves.ย In reality, they still end up getting hurt by people theyโ€™ve developed feelings for, whether they were officially a couple or not.
