Which Ex You Can Never Get Over, Based On Zodiac Sign

No matter how happy you are in a new relationship or being single, we all have that one ex we still think about occasionally.

This doesn’t mean we want them back, or even that we still have unresolved feelings – it’s just that your time together left such an imprint that it’s hard not to picture them when you hear a special song or smell a familiar fragrance. Certain zodiac duos are karmically linked and more likely to have this unique tie. Here’s the zodiac sign of the ex you can’t get over, and what made your relationship so unforgettable.

Aries and Leo

What you had was so playful and genuine, this relationship is almost impossible to get over. Aries, you finally found someone who gushes over you and gave you all the compliments and attention you craved, without stifling your need for independence. And Leo, you found a partner who was loyal, honest, and obsessed with you, and could match your passionate, fiery energy. As a duo, you were the life of every party and you seemed made for each other, like two little kids playing in a fantasy world. But something went wrong – either you argued too much (all that passion can be a double-edged sword), let jealousy get in the way, or simply grew apart. It’s going to take a long time to get over each other – but you will move on and find the right one someday. 

Taurus and Aquarius

You two complemented each other so well, it seemed like you were destined to be together. Aquarius, your Taurus partner helped you stay grounded in reality, while providing all the patience and stability you crave. Taurus, you were dazzled by Aquarius’ eccentric and fearless nature – it felt like you were two strange puzzle pieces fitting together perfectly. But your differences also got in the way – Taurus, you wanted more romance and commitment from the relationship, and Aquarius, you felt stifled by a conventional lifestyle. Ultimately, your life paths were just too disparate, but your feelings for each other never really changed. Although it hurts, you will both find someone who aligns better with your dreams and goals for the future, and the way you want to live.

Gemini and Sagittarius

Wow, this relationship was a fun one that neither of you will soon forget! You were always jet-setting somewhere, going on roadtrips, or planning your next adventure. You both loved being spontaneous and having fun, but also had an insatiable thirst for knowledge that led to many deep, hours-long talks. But there was no grounding force in this relationship – emotions ran high, arguments were frequent, and the practical aspects of day-to-day life fell apart. While you shared some amazing experiences and an unparalleled mental connection, you couldn’t make it work when it came to handling real life together. Your vacations and conversations will live on in your memories, but you’re better off with partners who can keep you grounded and help you reach your goals.

Cancer and Capricorn

This one is nearly impossible to get over because you two were such a perfectly complementary pair. Cancer, you were patient and loving enough to bring out Capricorn’s sweet, sensitive side, which is rare – not many people have that power. And Capricorn, you made Cancer feel valued and special, while offering endless loyalty, support, and admiration. You made each other feel like anything was possible, and that maybe you did deserve a fairytale life. But your different values and emotional expressions got in the way. Cancer, you might have seemed too clingy and needy to Capricorn, and while your ability to express your feelings is admirable, it could have overwhelmed a Capricorn partner. And Capricorn, you may have been too stoic, harsh, or critical to make your Cancer partner feel completely loved and accepted. You almost had it all, but you both deserve someone who better matches your temperament and principles. 

Virgo and Libra

As zodiac neighbors, you two were destined to cross each other’s paths – but you were also destined to have a better relationship as friends than as lovers. At first, you seemed to complement each other – serious earth sign Virgo grounds flighty air sign Libra, while Libra helps Virgo dream big and strive for balance. You both have strong work ethics and interpersonal skills, so it was easy for others to understand your connection. But Libra could only laugh off Virgo’s criticisms and negativity for so long, and Virgo may have lost respect for Libra’s shallow, materialistic side at some point. It’s possible for you to maintain a friendship, but in a romantic sense, this relationship simply wasn’t a good match.

Scorpio and Pisces

Two water signs understand each other like no one else, and that’s exactly what drew you together. You could communicate almost wordlessly, sensing exactly how each other felt and thought. You took great care of one another’s hearts and feelings, because you’re both so sensitive that you’d never want to cause your partner harm. It’s easy to mistake this psychic connection as a soulmate bond, but the truth is, you could have it with any other water sign partner or even a close friend. Scorpio’s tantrums and vengefulness may have gotten underneath Pisces’ skin, or perhaps Pisces’ melancholy moods or unrealistic ideas and expectations bugged Scorpio. You may also have mirrored each other’s negative qualities and bad habits because you were so similar. It didn’t work out, but you can form as deep of a connection with someone else – your bond stemmed from your own sensitivity and empathy, so you can have that again in another relationship.
