Wanted to see if there are any similarities in our behaviors. State you methods how you react to life after heart break and you venus sign as well.

I'm a taurus sun aries venus

Though I can fall in and out of infatuations easily it takes awhile for me to TRULY TRULY fall in love with a person NOT just love them. If I get my heart broken it hurts me to my core I have a huge heart and I love with my all it's devastating to me. I tend to want to spend time alone crying to sad songs I can relate to. And once I finally begin to heal I don't really want to let anyone else in scared to be hurt again.

A true heartbreak is rare. In a real heartbreak I lose my sense of self for a while. I try to reach out or hold on to the other person in one way or another. I can fall into some destructive behavior, like overeating or drinking. I will indulge in this behavior to an extreme, for me. It will last a period of time, and then stop out of nowhere. The pain of the heartbreak continues, but I then use it to focus on something positive, usually a completely new endeavor. I decide to learn a new language, or get really into working out in a new way. I improve myself and credit my heartbreaker with my improvement. Even in heartbreak I still build up and credit someone I truly love. I feel the pain for years.

For me, I have no problems when it comes to crushes. Now I do have a hard time with heartbreak with ppl I fell in love with only because I become attach emotionally. I am currently going through a heartbreak. I'm at war with myself because my Taurus ways are having a hard time letting go. My VIA is being impulsive. My last ex(virgo) we were together for almost 8/9 years. I knew that year #3 I should have let him go but of course my stubborn ways would not allow that. I had invest all of myself into it and I was determined to make it work. Yea worse decision of my life. I went through a lot of hell all for the name love (so what I thought love was). I'm slowly learning how to let go and don't become so stubborn. My cancer who is now my ex, with him I am trying not to make the same previous mistake. I was falling in love with him but we mutually realized that we need to split ways for a bit.( we have some past hurts that we need to heal from so that we can enjoy each other) Everyday I want to tell him that I change my mind and lets work on it but that is only my stubbornness talking and not willing to let him go. Any hoot I feel depressed and uninspired since we broke up and I only want to be by myself and listen to music. I go through moments that I overthink and panic over little things. I'm trying to break this cycle. I know it is destructive.

All the same for me.

And in order to deal with stress.. I have to outweigh the pros and cons and ask myself is it worth working it out.

Sure I was devastated with my ex and kept working it out. But it's only so much forgiveness I could give. And it's so much red flags to continue do I want this... no I rather move on because there is no trust. As soon as I had my opportunity. I bounced and became super caution, barriers up 100% . And did my own thing and I often thought it was for the better to move on. I went to school and worked. It kept me happy and content.

Could I have changed, compromise, adapt I was. But Oh I sure did because I don't believe in breakup or divorce. But the damage was done and my mind was made up. So once a bull's mind is fixed it's done.

Only been in 3 real relationships. Well anywho, the first week i am devastated. In the first week, im very mopey and the heartbreak is all i can think about. I listen to sad songs, cry a LITTLE. it takes me alot to cry from emotional pain. Aquarius moon, so my emotions are a bit "detached" and "cold", but if its something positive i can easily tear up. *pisces mars sensitivity, at least i believe that is why. I cry more happy tears than sad tears tbh. lol. But during breakups, they don't really hurt as much, except for the first week like i said earlier. also im just a firm believer in fate. If it's meant to be it will be, if not than it is what it is.

Wow we have such similar placements I too have have aqua moon venus aries and Pisces mars lol

Yea I've only experienced true heart break once. I think want tends to hurt me the most isn't the fact that the relationship is over but I take mistreatment very personally. I have such a big heart and try my best to show my loved one how much I appreciate and love them so when someone treats me unfairly I rly take that to heart. I wouldn't care if I didn't treat them as good but when I put a lot of effort into someone I expect a certain level of reciprocity and care. But often times I tend to end up with takers! The ppl that just take and take from you and are unappreciative. And the pain of feeling like I gave so much to someone and them treated me badly hurts more than anything. Because it makes me question humanity, character and my own judgement. Like how could I be so dumb to have given so much of myself to such a selfish person. So that is want hurts me the most after a break up

Taurus sun and moon here (fuck me) I go into depression for a week... Trying to reach out or hide... Then I replace them with another habit be it drinking. Eating whatever gets them off my mind but it never works and becomes an additiction for awhile and then I concoct a passive way to get them back by diving into my work and making myself look better than how they left me,
But somehow By the time they come back it's too late and they start begging and i realize how desperate I was.

Count me in, Taurus here with aqua moon, aries venus and pisces Mars! Lol! It depends for me if the person is worth the pain. I may not get over with it for a long time if I think I could have done better. But if the other party has cheated or was being too selfish and unfair, I would walk out the door and not look back. I don't have a hard time giving people chances as long as he makes an effort in making up for his/her lapses and is sincere. I try to give love to all as much as I can but still needs some time for myself so as to recharge.

I make plans. Life is like a war anyway and my goal is to figure out how to win it. When I was younger heartbreak would undo me and I'd get into all kinds of destructive activities. Now, I plan revenge, which is sweet, believe me. Also, I put myself out there, meet new people, and let love in again. Just because one person broke your heart doesn't mean everyone will, so don't punish yourself. It's their loss. There's someone out there, more beautiful, more understanding and more loving waiting for you. This is hard to believe when you're heartbroken, but it's true.

I travel, I have to get out of my routine and get my mind busy experiencing new things. This of course is after my food/crying binge that I do for a cpl of days and then I'm off!
