Why are you single according to your zodiac sign?

"Your tyrannical side"

You need to control everything, which often sends your conquests running for the hills. Yet, ironically, the moment you feel someone gaining a hold over you, you bolt without a second thought. Try to let go and channel that boundless energy into building relationships that actually fulfill you.

"Too possessive"

You can be a little too possessive, sometimes to the point of smothering your partner. Careful — that need to possess can tip over into control and manipulation! Thankfully, love can also turn you into a passionate, fiery lover — one who has to learn that you simply can't have it all.

"Empty promises"

"A promise only binds the one who believes it": that's your mantra… and also the reason you're single! With you, relationships start with a bang then fizzle out just as fast. You charm with your wit and your gift for conversation, but the moment someone gets attached, you use that same eloquence to keep them at arm's length. Not your finest move!

"You shut down"

You dream of a relationship that blends tenderness and romance, but the moment your partner gets too passionate, you're afraid of feeling smothered. So you shield yourself with irony and sarcasm instead of opening up. Your mysterious side is deeply attractive — but admitting your feelings once in a while wouldn't hurt you.

"Too demanding"

Demanding, the Leo? That's putting it mildly! Fiercely authoritative, you refuse to be neglected or to be given anything less than all the attention you feel you deserve. You want the honeymoon phase to last forever and expect endless effort from your partner… no wonder no one can keep up the pace!

"Not demonstrative enough"

You struggle to find love because you often come across as distant and not very demonstrative. A shame, really, because deep down you're a passionate soul who simply reads as cold. To attract and hold on to the people you love, let your sharp intuition and intelligence lead the way.

"Chasing the ideal"

Forever judging, you keep hoping for some hypothetical ideal partner… even when you're already in a relationship. You want the perfect romance, so you try to reshape the other person to fit your image, never accepting them as they truly are. And yet no one ever forgets you: you're irresistibly sensual!

"Suffocating jealousy"

It's your jealousy that sends partners running. That trait is frightening, because it so often opens the door to your outbursts and your legendary grudges. And yet, jealousy in the right dose can also be reassuring: it makes you an attentive partner, one who truly knows how to read the other's desires.

"Craving freedom"

With you, compromise is impossible: you're far too afraid of feeling trapped. So you often scare your partners off with your lack of commitment. A pity, because your energy, your humor and your gift for listening draw plenty of admirers — but at the first restriction, you make a run for it!

"Your coldness"

It's your lack of flexibility that makes your partners give up. Add to that the icy image you project, which does absolutely nothing to reassure them about your feelings (quite the opposite!). Lead instead with your protective, loyal and faithful side: you'll have every chance of winning over — and keeping — the one you love.

"Craving independence"

Your independence comes first: that's what explains your single status! Your other half doesn't always understand what they could bring to your life — ouch! Freedom is your whole philosophy of life; no wonder your solitude lingers… unless you find the partner who, like you, puts their independence above all.

"Love… to obsession!"

Your problem? You can genuinely scare your partners off, because your romantic passions sometimes turn into full-blown addictions. Deeply romantic, the story can even tip into obsession. With a little more restraint, though, you'd make a perfect partner: generous and attentive.
