Leo rules the zodiac's fifth house of romance. You're in love with being in love
-- breakups are rarely an option for you. You'll stand by your
mate and do anything to keep the relationship together. Often, you'll tolerate
serious breakup-worthy behavior -- cheating, abuse, lies -- just to avoid an
ending. (Leo Halle Berry has publicly dealt with all of these.) But sometimes,
rewarding bad behavior by sticking around only makes it worse.
Leo also rules drama, so your love life can be filled with it! You may break up and get back together a million times with the same person. Your exhausted friends who comforted you for hours are left with their heads spinning. They owe you -- you were there for them -- but payback is a mother! So before you drain your friends, try these techniques, too.
Don't hire a publicist just yet.
Dramatic Leos are quick to broadcast their news, especially when it comes to
breakups. But is it for real? Since you're so forgiving, you often patch things
up with your mate long before the ink dries on the press release.
Before you start a frenzy, learn the fine art of discretion. Keep your
drama on the downlow unless you're sure it's a done deal. Although you love
attention, too much
"center of the universe" behavior can alienate your supporters,
and give you a rep for crying wolf.
Move on...but not so fast.
Serial monagamist Leos never have a shortage of admirers. Before your tears
have dried, you're ready to start a future with someone
new. Example: Leo Jennifer Lopez met Ben Affleck while married to her backup
dancer Cris Judd. Then, the Bennifer nuptials were barely cancelled when
she took up with Marc Anthony. Perhaps it worked for J.Lo, but the average
Leo is cruising for a bruising if you head off on a new adventure without
unpacking the baggage from your last.
Get creative.
Leo rules self-expression and your sign is often talented in the arts. Find
a creative outlet for your pain -- dance, write music, paint, whatever. If
you must have drama (and we already know you must), at least make it productive!
Nothing keeps a Leo down long, especially when you express your passions.
That very energy can attract romance into your life -- when you're grooving
on your own projects, you don't feel as needy, and that can be oh-so becoming!
