Love—it’s the greatest adventure, but let’s be real, it can also be terrifying. We’ve all got our fears when it comes to matters of the heart, and surprise, surprise—our zodiac signs might have something to do with it!
So, let’s see what the stars reveal about what makes each zodiac sign hit the pause button on love.
1. Aries
You are someone who loves to live the life to the fullest, and you are so scared to fall in love because you believe you will lose your freedom somewhere along the road.
You think that being yourself and doing things you like are so important, and you wouldn’t be able to do that if you have someone next to you.
But that is not the truth because with the right person, you can actually be yourself.
When you meet the right one, you will still be able to feel that you are getting everything you want and not feel bad about it.
2. Taurus
You have a very strong character, and you always rely on yourself.
You are scared to fall in love because you know that you will relax and rely on another person who might take advantage of you and leave you.
You don’t want to give all your hopes to someone who will be there for a short amount of time and then leave.
You want someone who you know will never let you go. Not even in your worst edition. And you will run away from love until you really feel you can trust someone completely.
3. Gemini
You simply don’t want to fall in love because you feel better when you keep your options open.
You like to be on the market all the time because you never know whom you will meet.
You are scared that you will fall in love and that you will meet someone who would suit you better than your partner.
That’s why you choose to be single and enjoy a life like that.
You don’t want to be with someone you don’t feel incredible chemistry with, and you will wait as long as it takes to get where you want.
4. Cancer
You are so emotional and sensitive, and falling in love for you is something very special.
You don’t want to be with someone just to avoid being alone, and the person you are with has to be special.
You are afraid to fall in love because you think that your partner will leave you as all the others did.
You simply don’t want to get your heart broken again, and that’s why you have those walls up.
Just hope one day someone will be powerful enough to make you put them down.
5. Leo
You are not so afraid of falling in love but falling for the wrong person.
You like being in love and sharing your life with your partner, but you are so scared that maybe they are not the right one for you.
That’s why you like to wait and see what will happen.
You first start a friendship with someone, and if you see they are compatible with you, you relax to start something deeper.
Leo, you are full of love, but you shouldn’t be so careful. Bear in mind that your heart will tell you when the right one comes.
6. Virgo
You are a sensitive soul, and you always take care about whom you are letting into your life.
You don’t want to be with someone who you will open up to and then they leave you because they don’t like you.
You would rather be single than spending time with a person you are not sure about.
Also, you are sometimes way too critical, and you believe you don’t deserve love. But that is not true.
You just need to relax a bit and stop thinking that people would like to do you harm.
7. Libra
You are someone who thinks that real love doesn’t exist and that marriages and relationships exist because of different interests.
That’s why you never open your heart to anyone, and you keep all your love inside. It is very hard to win you over because once things become serious, you back off.
You feel you are not ready for something like that, and you rather do things that fulfill you.
But what you don’t know is that it is only a matter of time when the right one will come and sweep you off of your feet. Only then everything will finally make sense.
8. Scorpio
The problem with you is that you have been hurt too many times before and you don’t trust anyone.
You are not someone who will believe a guy when he says he loves you. He will have to show that he does, and you won’t accept anything less than that.
You are scared that your partner will cheat on you with people close to you and that you will have to break all contacts with them.
It would be great if you could just relax a bit and stop thinking that someone will betray you. You know, some people are meant to love you!
9. Sagittarius
The thing you are afraid of the most regarding love is that you believe you will get bored with it.
You believe that after some time, people get stuck in a routine, and they lose the old spark they had at the beginning.
That’s why you wander around, having fun with different people, and you take the best life can offer you.
That is great for some time, but you won’t be able to do that forever.
10. Capricorn
You simply can’t relax enough to give your heart to someone.
You think that everyone will eventually hurt you and that it doesn’t make sense to fall in love. You think that is a waste of time and that you can use your time more wisely.
You think too much about getting hurt, and when the real deal knocks on your door, you can’t recognize it.
You should be able to trust people more. Remember: if you smile to life, the life will smile to you as well.
11. Aquarius
You don’t want someone to whom you will have to explain the things you do. And when having a partner that is inevitable.
You like your freedom the most in the whole world, and you don’t want to lose it for anyone or anything.
That’s why you rather stay alone and enjoy everything that life gives you.
You are someone who likes to chase dreams, and you would never give up on that because of someone else.
12. Pisces
You simply can’t overcome your fear that people will hurt you if you give all of yourself in.
You are so scared of love, and you would rather stay alone until the right one comes.
You want to be 100% sure that the man you are sleeping with is really your soulmate and that he will never do anything that would hurt you.
You overthink, but you also over love. And that is your best quality.
