Your Post Breakup To-Do List, Based On Your Zodiac Sign
We all handle breakups differently. This is what you do right after either of you calls it quits, based on your zodiac.
Aries
- Tell all your mutuals what happened so they can pick you in the “divorce.”
- Get an entirely new haircut and color to celebrate this new single phase.
- Cry for literally one day and then get over it.
Taurus
- Cry for so long that you legit get so dehydrated that you run out of tears.
- Buy yourself flowers, because they sure as hell never did.
- Spend a month focusing on all the self-care you can come up with.
Gemini
- Burn every single bridge with your now-ex that you can possibly come up with.
- Flirt with their sibling regardless of whether you’re interested in them. (Bonus points if you are.)
- Go to a party or bar and find your next fling.
Cancer
- Create a nightly routine where you scroll through all their social media to see if they’ve moved on before you.
- Annoy your friends with how often you talk about your ex.
- Think about them for several years but insist that you’re totally over it.
Leo
- Meet up with every friend individually so you can give them the dramatic retelling of every moment of the breakup over and over again.
- Buy yourself something nice, because you deserve it.
- Look for someone hotter and better so your ex can feel jealous when they see you both on your IG.
Virgo
- Block them in every possible way.
- Daydream about the myriad ways you could ruin their life and never get caught.
- Unblock them in your weakest moments to see if they’ve moved on, then cry yourself to sleep when you realize they have.
Libra
- Insist that you remain friends, even if the breakup was incredibly heartbreaking.
- Tell your friend circle that things don’t have to be awkward, even though they totally are.
- Text one of the friends you have a crush on that you’ve been keeping on the bench.
Scorpio
- Gather up everything they left at your place and burn it all to the ground, literally.
- Tell everyone that you’re fine, even though you’re secretly falling apart.
- Have a fling with someone you’d never normally be interested in, just to “get it out of your system.”
Sagittarius
- Disappear as soon as the breakup is official, even if your ex was hoping to get a little closure.
- Talk about how this breakup is actually exactly what you needed, and say it enough times that you start to believe it.
- Book all the activities you put on hold because your now-ex wasn’t interested in coming with.
Capricorn
- Say that both of you messed up, even if you secretly think it was all their fault.
- Tell all your friends that you saw it coming and aren’t surprised at all by the breakup.
- Work yourself to exhaustion at work or home projects just to stop the whirlwind that’s going on in your mind.
Aquarius
- Distract yourself with work, work, and more work. You can’t get sad when you have so much work to do.
- Endure everyone you know asking, “But are you actually fine?” since you’re showing virtually no reaction to the breakup.
- Start a long single period because you’re emotionally exhausted when it comes to other people.
Pisces
- Withdraw from everyone so you can lick your wounds in peace.
- Watch and listen to all the sad shit that you reserve for the times that you just want to cry, cry, cry.
- Finally let your friends take you out and boost your ego, because they’re the best at getting your mental prison.
