How do Libras handle breakups?

If a Libra ended a relationship or someone ended the relationship with the Libra, how would the Libra handle it?

Being a Libra myself, it seems as if I'm kind of calm if a relationship would end. Not sure if that is typical for a Libra to be so calm.

Experiences and stories are welcome 🙂

I'm a libra female and it really varies on the day for me.

I am currently dealing with a breakup...& some days I'm sad, others I'm okay & other days I'm pissed off. We are very moody... I know I am for sure.

We start to analyze everything that happened in the relationship (good & bad) & that's where the up & down moods come from.

I know I won't speak first to my ex but when he would write to me I would tell myself "don't you dare answer"... I would start my anazlying crap & eventually answer .... as of now he is blocked . Which is how it will remain

But I agree when we move on... we move on , but it takes us time. We don't like to just jump from relationship to relationship.

Good luck if you are dealing with a libra 🙂

Every one besides one was just a natural transition for me. The most horrible, heart breaking and one I truly suffered from was from a Capricorn. It was like a death or something. I lost a ton of weight. The days just melted into one another. It took a VERY long time for me to get back to myself-more than a year.

It depends on how and why it ended, who ended it and whether I still see potential in the relationship (whether I feel that it was a mistake to end it).

I tend to dwell on it, but all my relationships were long term, serious, with a lot of responsibilities (buying houses, common bank accounts, etc.) and a fair amount of interdependence (e.g., he did all the accounting; now that we split, my accounting is a mess).

I don't think being a Libra is as important a factor as all of the above.

I broke up with my libra ex around valentines last year and he ended up being committed to hospital in May because he develops skizophrenia when he is sad or stressed out, I was part to blame

Spot on. But this also varies a lot based on multiple factors.

I get over it faster and easier when I am the dumper than when I am the dumpee, but I think this applies to all signs.

I also use the opportunity to examine myself, what I could have done different, learn from it to avoid such mistakes in future. To me, each breakup is opportunity for growth as well. This idea is useful to keep the blues at bay, and experience has proven that I really do grow each time I go through a split.

Wow are you that emotial that you get affected by each one?

I don't think this has as much to do with emotional as it has to do with committed and attached. Once a relationship gets serious, I am fully committed and attached, and I gather Libras tend to be that way. That level of commitment and attachment takes time to break, it is not enough to just decide to break it.

Little sideline here to educate about schizophrenia. It is not like a flu. You only develop it once and then you have it for life. Stress can contribute to psychosis (schizophrenia flareup, which is what your ex was hospitalized for) but is not the only factor and people suffering from schizophrenia who are happy and have no issues still can develop psychosis without the stress factor. People don't induce schizophrenia/psychosis in others. 😉

Is it normal for them to keep a back up plan? They playing the field to figure who they want. If they break up with you they are done but what if you break up with them?

I don't see the point of a backup plan, I probably would not even be able to handle one even if I wanted to, which would only make sense to me if I wanted revenge, but I've never broken up with anyone over something that would motivate revenge and to my knowledge I was never broken up with for such a motive either.

However, I do get pretty lonely pretty fast after a breakup and I do get more sensitive to people trying to seduce me. 😉

A long time ago, when my libra ex and i broke up (he ended it and i still don't know why. I tried to get him back for a while but he didn't budge). He used to call me twice a day from different phones without saying a word until i hung up. I don't know what for. Weird stuff.

Eventually i saw him again and he had lost a lot of weight. I don't know if it was because of our breakup but he was never the same. Always getting into trouble and even went to jail.

While we were together, he was never a trouble maker.

Hmm only ended one relationship I actually cared about.. it was hell for while..

But I handled it by going to the gym, hanging out with friends, reading a lot... went on a trip to Italy and then Hawaii..

I basically did all the things I wasn't doing while in that relationship. After a while I felt like myself again.

But letting go of someone who meant so much to me for so many years was not easy even though it was my decision and it was a much needed one.

What did the cap do differently that caused you these emotions

I think it was a combination of things to be honest and he also had very cruel characteristics. He took things i'd confided in him about/insecurities and used them against me in a very horrible way. Told me my family never loved me and that's why I was in a foreign country without them and they didn't care (I live and work abroad) The words from people who we love can have a very powerful effect. It's a shame because I am now even more cautious about what I reveal and opening to people, and my current bf especially feels this. I'll get there.

I hear that a lot with Libra males...apparently the Libra males & females handles things a little differntly.

I am near breakup status. I lost concentration on most stuff. I face sleep difficulty. I lost appetite. I feel emptiness in my stomach around the clock, to name a few. Hope I will survive and move on as soon as possible 😢

I got drunk last night and I could barely recall it was great as I forgot everything for a whole night. Wonder if I should get drunk again tonight

Very bad, but you won't know it.

I am a libra who just ended a fwb relationship, but i had feeling for him. He dint want a relationship so i left him. I blocked him from everywhere,although i did cry some nights, but i try to indulge myself in the things i like to do. I dont completely isolate myself from the world, like i meet people but reduced it. I am get back to my normal self one step at a time.

I'm dealing with a break or breakup now and I'm a mess! Beneath the surface that is, I walked away from him knowing that he would react the way he did and I'm so hurt!

Everyday is different, it's only been two weeks but it feels like years. Slowly getting back into my pre relationship routine.

I would say it's hard to deal with, but I keep myself busy so j don't think about it, and when I do I'm an emotional mess. So funny because he always wanted to see this part of my but as a strong dominant libra woman I could never let myself cry in front of him.

I was the one to call off my two major relationships. The first time he pretended to be surprised, but I reminded him "We fought ALL the time!" The other time, we broke up, got back together, broke up again, and he wanted a third go; I refused, and he was pissed.

Really? The Capricorn? Oh you have a Cap moon.

Thank you.

I've heard some amazing things about Spain!

I say if you have the money to do so, or can save for it, then do it. We only have this one life.

so sorry but hang in there and take care of yourself !

Libras are the sign of partnership and union. Most of us lose our GD minds. Even if we know it was the right thing. We hate the lose of the companionship.

Loss*

Dear Goodtime, thank you for asking. I am still very hurt every single day. I tried many different methods but I failed. I guess I need more time then ... I want to get over but I simply can't. I can't explain. Only God know. God sent a truly Angel to help me out but Angel can't help either 😢

What's your story?

I become desperate and plead for them to come back. I'll repeatedly send paragraphs and make requests of them. I look like a fool when I go through a breakup because I feel rejected. I've been trying to get better at handling people that I've been interested ghosting me.

What if they're doing the same thing back to you? Would you take their pleas or forget them?

Me!

I withdraw and deal with it privately... and then try to remain friends. I can't handle the negativity of being angry for a long time.
