Leo's love to be admired, and usually you're the number one source who gives it to them, but when they start looking for affection in other places it's because they're no longer in love. When the Leo feels under-appreciated they begin to fall out of love.
They often fall in love too quickly, which makes it quite common for a Leo to fall in love with the wrong person. However, once they are in love, they are fiercely loyal until they get some solid reason to stop being loyal.
Leos are ruthless lovers. They are either in or out when it comes to relationships. Although they will keep you in their thoughts while looking for ways to come out clean, they won't flinch while breaking your heart. It's when you feel the sting in your heart that assures they are not into you anymore.
A Leo's initial reaction to an unexpected split is often complete shock that someone could lose interest in them, followed by devastating anguish. During a breakup, Leos feel as if their sun has been eclipsed. It's a totally heart-wrenching experience, and these lions aren't afraid to showcase their suffering.
Leo is associated with the zodiac's fifth house of romance. You're in love with being in love— the Leo breakup is rarely an option for you. You'll stand by your mate and do anything to keep the relationship together. Often, you'll tolerate serious dump-worthy behavior—cheating, abuse, lies—just to avoid an ending.
It is important for Leos to feel adored and appreciated by their partner. Thus, they are likely to regret ending a relationship with someone who gave them a lot of attention. But this won't happen often. Also, Leos don't change their mind too frequently.
So, when their ex mentions about a possible breakup, they will immediately move on right then and there, because to Leos, their self-worth is much more important than bowing down to hurt and past grudges. They will also never think about getting back with their partner, no matter what.
It seems obvious that they would want to be with someone who perceives the world with utmost positivity. Keep an upbeat attitude and always look on the bright side of things while you're around your Leo. This manner, even if you aren't present, your good aura will cause them to miss you.
According to Comet, Leos would be hurt most by a partner who wounds their ego. "Leo is a proud sign," she says. "If their partner does something to make them look dumb, especially publicly, this is unforgivable for them." As a fixed sign, Leo also values loyalty.
You have to give your Leo partner the limelight and constant attention because they simply love it. Pamper this sign with dates, romantic gestures and flowers! But, if you start steering away from that, they will lose interest in you, in an instant. That's how much they love themselves.
He'll start to miss you when you're not around. Leo men are attracted to women who are affectionate and not afraid to show their feelings. If you want to make him miss you don't be afraid to express your emotions. He'll appreciate your affection and will start to miss you when you're not around.
They are interested in something, but it's not a relationship. Leos are actually very literal with their mixed messages: they do want you around sometimes (usually for sex) but they aren't interested in more.
He isn't as friendly as he used to be
Now it seems as if he wants to be anywhere else but with you. He'll still talk to you, but you can tell there is some iciness to the conversation. When a Leo man isn't happy in the relationship anymore, you'll notice he isn't his warm and friendly self.
Why can Leos be so hard to date? Leos like to talk about themselves quite a bit, and they can get fixated on their own problems, without being aware that the other person may also have troubles that they're dealing with.
Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, and a cardinal fire sign trines with Leo, which means it's four signs apart and can make for one of the most organic, passionate, well-matched pairings in the zodiac. Both fire signs are adventurers who are driven to make big moves to ensure their ambitious visions become a reality.
No matter how confident they look, Leos get all sad and sloppy when going through a breakup. It is very hard for them to forget the one they were in a relationship with. They keep crying and lamenting about their ex and what difference they could've done to prevent the breakup.
Leo (July 23rd to August 22nd)
You don't want to end up with someone who doesn't deserve you, who you feel like you could do better than. As such, you're incredibly picky when it comes to dating. Almost too picky, because you find yourself perpetually single because of those standards.
She may start to withdraw from you physically.
In addition to withdrawing emotionally, a Leo woman may also start to withdraw from the person who hurt her physically. She may stop wanting to be around them and may even start to avoid physical contact with them.
Leos love the thrill of the chase so give him space to make a move. He can't chase you if you're always around, so don't be in all of his social circles. Wait for him to contact you instead of texting or calling him. Being a little aloof also gets him wondering what you're up to.
A Leo man wants a passionate and physical woman.
It's safe to say physical touch is the Lion's love language. He's thrilled by a woman who loves to touch and be touched. Showing a little extra skin when you're around him doesn't hurt either.
They love attention and being the center of the spotlight. They have a natural flair for drama and theatrics and often command attention wherever they go. When Leos feel ignored or overlooked, they may become moody or temperamental and may even throw a tantrum to get the attention they crave.
Leos can be pretty self-absorbed, but they'll focus on someone they like. He'll spend time getting to know you because he wants to be the best partner and make you happy. When a Leo likes you, he'll listen intently when you talk and ask you a ton of open-ended questions.
Leo's need their space and you have to understand this as a basic characteristic to have if you want them in your life long term. Clingy folks stay away. Leo's like strong and independent people else quickly lose interest and respect for you.
Believe it or not, Leo's biggest turn-on is feeling desired. Leos are so terrific in bed because they're enchanted by seduction—both giving and receiving.
Leos can hold a grudge forever. They will definitely let you know that they don't want you in their life. However, if you can't take the hint or if you hurt them really bad, they will straight away push you out of their lives.
