This is the type of toxic person you are always attracted to according to your zodiac sign

Aries

(21 March to 19 April)

What person are you looking for who does not suit you? The person who submits to you.

A strange thing about Aries is that they always seem to be attracted to people who are a little below them. It usually has to do with confidence (they set the bar very low so they can feel surprised when they know they are adored by their partner) or their natural propensity to teach and lead. In either case, Aries will drive themselves crazy trying to figure out why they are never really happy in a relationship with someone who seems to fit what they want. It's not until they realise that what they really want is someone to guide them, not take on the role of teacher/parent with their partner.

Taurus

(20 April to 21 May)

Which person are you looking for and not suitable for you? The person who is miles out of your league.

Tauruses are intensely interested in anyone they find interesting and chic, intelligent and attractive. In fact, they want to befriend, date and marry people they perceive as an improvement in their social status, and end up very disappointed when they discover that their relationship was built on illusions and ideas. Tauruses get carried away with people who seem to have it all, but with whom they have no real chemistry. The spoiler alert here is that they don't actually like these people, they like some aspects of how they get together.

Gemini

(22 May to 21 June)

What person are you looking for who does not suit you? The person who is not committed to you.

If a Gemini needs anything in life, they need someone who is down to earth, logical and not afraid of commitment. For a Gemini to feel truly secure and loved and secure in a relationship, they need to know that they are with someone who can support all their moods, opinions and dreams. However, Geminis often find themselves entangled with people who are too scattered and who make them feel even worse about themselves than before. They never consider the more practical side of love, which is that you have to use your heart and your head.

Cancer

(22 June to 22 July)

What person are you looking for and it doesn't suit you? The person you only love the idea of.

Cancers are not usually known for being dreamers, but when you really think about it, they are super emotional and idealistic, and tend to be attracted to people they think they just "fit in" with, without much consideration for the logistics of whether or not their relationship works out in reality. Cancers spend much of their lives trapped in people they don't love as much as they think they do. They tend to see and expect the best from people, and disregard the fact that things are not working out the way they really wanted to believe they would.

Leo

(23 July to 22 August)

Which person are you looking for and is not suitable for you? The person who challenges you.

As a Leo, there are few things sexier than when someone comes along and makes you feel challenged and a little controlled. As someone who is always so self-reliant and independent, that dynamic is very attractive to you, but completely and utterly impractical in reality. You need someone who complements you, not someone with whom you engage in a constant power struggle. There is a difference between someone who challenges you to be better and someone who challenges your patience and self-esteem. You seek the former, not the latter.

Virgo

(23 August to 22 September)

What person are you looking for who does not suit you? The person who doesn't "get" you.

Virgo craves to be understood and accepted, and likes to be in control of their life in general. Nothing throws all that off axis like the kind of person Virgo tends to be attracted to - the ones who just totally misunderstand them, question their motives and habits, and make them feel like they're crazy for feeling the way they do. The combination is toxic, but Virgo keeps pushing back because they want to "conquer" in some way. Virgo is easily paranoid, and not being someone who trusts them is not a good combination.

Libra

(23 September to 22 October)

What person are you looking for and it doesn't suit you? The person you love only because he/she loves you.

Libra is so dependent on love being in their lives, that they will actually start to prioritise how much people give over what they really feel. This is a total miscalculation on their part, however, and backfires immensely, because they won't really feel loved by someone they don't feel connected to in the first place. When the relationship starts to falter, Libra will become increasingly obsessed with trying to make a circle fit into a square, and will cling relentlessly to their ideas of who their "true love" is. Unfortunately, this is usually the sign that some soul-searching needs to occur, and then that explosive love can come - only when it will be reciprocated both ways.

Scorpio

(23 October to 22 November)

Which person are you looking for and is not suitable for you? The person you think is "better than you".

Scorpios are truly masochistic through and through, and are often attracted to the exact type of people they know will ultimately reject them. There is almost something intriguing and challenging about being with someone they are not sure they can commit to, and it makes them feel confident and eager to be seen with someone they think is out of their league. Ultimately, they will self-sabotage the relationship because a healthy partnership will not be born out of feeling that you are the lesser of the two.

Sagittarius

(23 November to 21 December)

What person are you looking for but is not suitable for you? The person who intrigues you, but evades you.

Sagittarians will go to the ends of the earth pursuing whatever intrigues them. They are the sign known for introspection, dry humour and deep interest in random, if not obscure, subjects. Their interests in relationships don't really vary much from this, and they often find themselves interested in people who are significantly different from them in some way. They want to feel completed and engaged by them, but the thing is, they have to be with someone who really wants the things they do, too. It can't all be random and elusive interest, there has to be some practicality, too.

Capricorn

(22 December to 20 January)

What person are you looking for who does not suit you? The person who does not need you.

Capricorns are always attracted to independent, self-reliant, resourceful, driven and enterprising people, all things they wish they could embody more of themselves. However, this often results in them ending up with people who simply don't need or really want to have them around. They are magnets for selfish people who need more comfort or support than love and a relationship. Capricorns need to find their own sense of freedom and capability rather than seeking it from someone else, and that often requires going a little against their natural tendency to be stubborn and reluctant to change.

Aquarium

(21 January to 18 February)

Which person are you looking for and does not suit you? The person you see yourself in.

Aquarians are so genuinely intrigued by those who think they are like them, except more extreme. If you want to know what an Aquarian thinks of themselves, look at their partner. If they think they're smart, they'll be attracted to a genius, if they think they're classy, they'll be attracted to a European, if they think they're a hot mess, they'll be attracted to an even bigger hot mess. Aquarians like to project when it comes to love, and often find themselves in love with someone with whom they are totally incompatible in the end.

Pisces

(19 February to 20 March)

What person are you looking for and it doesn't suit you? The person who is a muse for you.

Pisces fall in love and then stay in love with the people who inspire them to create and feel and cry and all those things that Pisces love so much. They are constantly looking for the next person to pique their interest and rock their worlds. Pisces will give anything and everything to the people they love. They are passionately devoted and wear their hearts on their sleeves. This leads them to lose interest when they need to compromise, when they need to realise that things are not going to work out after all. Pisces need a dose of logical and rational thinking when it comes to love - otherwise they are destined to spend the rest of their lives chasing the person who captured their hearts, but could never really be with them in the end.
