Breakups suck, getting dumped sucks, and being the one who calls off a relationship also sucks. Really the entire situation isn't a walk in the park. It's a confrontation like no other because, this time, people's hearts are involved.
Some breakups include yelling, screaming, and slamming doors while others are paragraph text messages and tearful FaceTimes. Every Zodiac sign has unique qualities that influence how they approach breakups. No way is "right" or "wrong," they are all different in their own way.
If you have no clue how to go about calling it quits, connect to your zodiac sign and you'll find the exact way it was meant to be.
Aries (March 21 - April 19)
These fiery, energetic, and aggressive souls won't waste a minute with the wrong person. They will rip the relationship off like a Band-Aid, lay it all out on the line, and, yes, it will be done in public. Nevertheless, they won't be vague and they will make sure to be respectful and emphasize closure.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Taurus individuals are grounded and don't really like to compromise. Although loyal and committed, breakups happen and a Taurus will be very black and white in their actions. With a quick, "We're over," these signs will be able to swiftly move on and find someone that satisfies their expectations.
Gemini (May 21- June 20)
These creative creatures have phenomenal communication skills and will definitely choose to break another's heart with a sentimental poem that illustrates why they have to move on.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Cancers will cry in their soon-to-be-ex's arms and exclaim, "It's not you, it's me!" Cancers are awfully emotional and sensitive. I would know, I am one and, from personal experiences, initiating breakups are so hard – we would rather avoid confrontation at all costs. Cancers sympathize with all and it's almost impossible for us to willingly hurt others, which makes breaking up with a loved one heartbreaking.
Leo (July 23 - August 22)

Libra (September 23 - October 22)
A Libra will take a diplomatic, face-to-face approach with honesty, clarity, and they most definitely will take responsibility for their wrongdoings.
