Astrology Signs Most Likely to Stay in One-Sided Relationships

One of the most common heartaches is falling in love with someone who doesn't love you back. It manifests itself in all languages, all cultures, and all generations. So why is it that some continue to get caught in the cycle and others leave when things aren't going their way? The answer to that question is very clearly outlined in the world of astrology.

Some of the signs are wired in a way that they are far more inclined to give in in the relationship and stay longer than they should and keep hoping when they should stop. It is not a sign of weakness. It's about loving on a deep level and how, for some signs, that can be a hindrance.

The first step towards changing a pattern is to understand it. Let's get onto it, then.

Consider a relationship as being like a seesaw. If they do the same effort, it will be balanced. When one person is doing all the work and the other person is just sitting down, it's a one-sided relationship. One person makes all the arrangements, sends the messages, makes all the sacrifices, and is emotionally responsible. The other is present in it.

What is hard is that most of the time people in this scenario already know there's something wrong. They are aware of the imbalance. They don't go away, though. And astrology provides an interesting insight into what that means for some signs more than others.

Choose to acknowledge that a one-sided relationship isn't necessarily a relationship with a bad partner. Sometimes it's a matter of a fundamental aspect of someone's emotional state. Astrology can assist you to identify and comprehend those patterns before they become any more painful. 

Before beginning to recognize the signs, it is important to first understand that your love style is not limited to your sun sign. There are three planets that have a significant influence on your relationship behavior. 

• Venus: Venus influences your style of giving and receiving love and the qualities you look for in a partner. Those with weak Venus signs may feel unlovable and seek out to give more than receive. 

• Moon: Your emotional needs are controlled by Moon, as well as how you seek comfort. If the Moon is afflicted, a person loses emotional security, and it is very difficult to let go of another person. 

• Saturn: The sense of responsibility and commitment is ruled by Saturn. Saturn's aspect on Venus gives one more seriousness, duty, or responsibility in love. When someone feels obligated to do something that actually hurts them, they are compelled to do it. 

The zodiac signs that are most affected by these planetary patterns are the most apparent. Let's take a look at which ones. 

1. Cancer (Kark Rashi) | June 21 to July 22 | Ruled by the Moon

The most important nurturer of the entire zodiac is Cancer. Their love is deep, and their caring is sincere, generous, and practically unconditional. Unfortunately, Cancer's problem is that he mistakenly equates caring with loving. They rarely take care of their own needs and instead look after their partner's, to the extent that they begin to take less than this and are content to call it love.

Since the Moon is in Cancer, their emotional stability is completely dependent on their relationships. Even if the relationship is broken, it feels like losing a part of them as well. They will remain and believe that it will get better, as the thought of leaving an empty emotional space is worse than an imbalanced relationship. 

• Makes excuses for partner's effort

• Takes accountability for the emotional tone of the relationship

• Resides due to concern over being alone, but not in joy. 

Compassion is Pisces' rulership. They really believe in people's good, and that is wonderful until you understand that they can also envision potential in other people when there is none. A Pisces in love will hold on to the concept of who he/she could be, rather than who he/she is at this present moment.

Pisces are dreamers, by nature. They will develop a whole love story in their mind, which may not be what their partner is going through. Pisces and one-sided love go together, as they have a very soft and porous heart, making it easy for one-sided love to creep in. They take on the emotions and issues of the one they are connected to and wonder why they feel so drained. 

• Romanticises the relationship far beyond what is real

• Accepts their partner's emotions as his/her responsibility

• Still sees no good reason to give up on a hope, even though there are plenty of reasons not to

Scorpio has a fierce temperament, is intense, and is very loyal. A Scorpio's love is all-consuming when it comes to a person. They give their all and want their reward. It's complicated, however, when you consider the details. One of Scorpio's biggest weaknesses in love is that they think they can transform a partner who is not giving them enough. This belief prolongs their stay in this life, which is far too long.

Scorpios are also very secretive. A Scorpio will not grant you admission to his/her position of weakness by acknowledging the relationship is not working. So instead of walking away, they double down. They explore, examine, and expend more effort in attempting to repair something that just might not be reparable. 

• Remains hopeful for change to occur in the relationship regardless of the effort

• Has difficulty accepting rejection when they are not being treated well

• Their pride is great and they don't like to leave, so they prefer to fight it out. 

Taurus is the sign of the zodiac that is the most stubborn, and they wear it proudly. Taurus highly prizes stability in life. Once they invest in a relationship emotionally, financially, or just in terms of time, they do not let go easily. In a healthy relationship, this is good. In a one-sided one it turns into a trap.

Tauruses have an aversion to change on a fundamental level. When the chips are on the table, a Taurus will often rationalize staying on because the pain of change is too much for them to deal with, rather than the slow and steady pain of an out-of-balance relationship. If you are in love with a Taurus who doesn't love you back, you will hear them frequently saying that they have already done enough and they need to continue doing more. 

• Mistaking commitment for remaining in an unhealthy relationship

• Transitions are resisted even if painful.

• If the other party is not as loyal, then their loyalty turns into a liability. 

In the world of love, Virgo is a very sad creature. They feel if they do just enough, are perfect enough, and help enough, the other person will eventually come around. This is the fixer pattern, and one of the most draining places a person can be in love is this one.

When relationships aren't going well, Virgo also has a tendency to take the blame. Instead of acknowledging the imbalance, they turn inwards and ask themselves what they have done wrong. Their self-critical attitude and incredible attention to detail will mean they see the little bit of hope and cling to it like a lifeline. Virgo in a one-sided relationship usually doesn't even realize that they are in a one-sided relationship, as they are too busy working to fix it. 

• Takes personal responsibility for lack of effort of partner

• Believes work and perfection will bring someone love over time

• Takes little signs of affection seriously and exaggerates its meaning

Libra is under the guidance of Venus and is the lover of harmony and partnership. It is something for them that naturally belongs and is essential. That is the reason that Libras hate being alone and that they will even remain in a dysfunctional relationship just to avoid being alone.

Libra also has a strong fear of conflict. Raising the imbalance, requesting additional funds, or drawing a line feels like stoking the peace. Instead, Libras quietly internalize the unfairness and tell themselves that it is okay. They are natural peacekeepers, but in their love, this peacekeeping too often comes at the expense of their own happiness. 

• Avoids hard talks that might bring balance to the relationship

• Makes peace in the relationship more important than his/her feelings.

• Terrifies being alone more than being in an unequal relationship

The majority of individuals are unaware that their sun sign is just a part of the picture. There are two more positions in your birth chart that are more indicative of how you behave in love. Your Moon sign and your Venus sign are more likely to tell you a lot more about your love patterns than your sun sign ever will.

Your Moon sign lets us know your emotional needs for feeling safe and secure. No matter what sign the sun is in, someone with their Moon in Cancer, Pisces, or Scorpio will be much more emotional in relationships. They need to be close and are easily lost. This can keep them stuck in situations where they continue to seek "feeling seen and understood.

Your Venus sign discloses to us your style of love and what you look for in a partner. You are probably more likely to stay longer, to forgive, and to invest a lot in relationships if your Venus is in one of the water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, or Pisces) or one of the fixed signs (Taurus or Aquarius). A Venus-difficult aspect to Saturn in the natal chart tends to give a sense of unworthiness of love. This is one of the largest astrological signs of somebody who remains in one-sided love circumstances much longer than they should.

Look up your sun sign, Moon sign, and Venus sign. Your relationship patterns may come into a whole new light compared to what your sun sign alone shows you. 

Astrology is not a death sentence. Understanding your patterns is the first step towards changing your patterns. What these signs need to develop are the following: 

• Cancer must realize that it cannot be loyal to someone who doesn't treat you well. It is self-abandonment. 

• Pisces needs to learn to love the actual person in front of him/her instead of the one he/she imagines to be in his/her mind. 

• Scorpio should not view walking away as a loss but as the strongest form of power and as a demonstration of true self-pride. 

• Taurus needs to know that what has been invested does not mean it needs to hurt in the future. It's never too late to cut your losses. 

• Virgos need to stop expecting the other person to try and be perfect. 

• Libra must become aware of the fact that true harmony is not silence. It is honesty. The same with their partner, which they deserve. 

The same type of sign does not necessarily fall under one-sided love in the same manner. Aries, Gemini, Leo, and Sagittarius are generally not as likely to stay in one-sided relationships for any prolonged amount of time. Aries is quick to move on and is too dignified to pursue a person. Before it hurts, Gemini mentally checks out and becomes bored. Leo craves adoration and will not stand down easily. Sagittarians won't let anyone stop them from enjoying the world because they consider it an adventure and want to enjoy it.

This doesn't make these signs better partners. Just that their relationship wounds manifest in different ways. They might leave too quickly instead of staying too long. Each sign has a love shadow as well as its own task to accomplish.
