Some relationships are destined to have second chances. While breakups often bring closure, there are certain zodiac signs that find themselves drawn back into the arms of a former flame. Whether it’s nostalgia, emotional depth, or an inability to let go of the past, these signs are more likely to rekindle a romance with their ex. Let’s explore the top four zodiac signs most likely to get back with their ex — and why they just can’t seem to close that chapter for good.

Cancer: The Emotional Historian
Cancers are deeply emotional and incredibly loyal. When they love, they love hard — and that connection doesn’t just disappear after a breakup. Cancer is ruled by the Moon, which governs emotions and memory, making this sign naturally inclined to hold onto the past. They often romanticize previous relationships, remembering the good times with a nostalgic glow. If an ex reaches out or if they feel unresolved emotions, Cancers are likely to revisit the connection, hoping to mend what was broken.
They’re also very family-oriented and crave emotional security. If their past partner made them feel safe, Cancer will want to return to that comfort zone. Often, they believe in emotional growth and second chances, assuming that time and understanding can heal even the deepest wounds.
Pisces: The Forgiving Dreamer
Pisces, ruled by Neptune, live in a world of dreams, compassion, and intuition. This water sign is incredibly forgiving and empathetic, often putting others’ feelings before their own. When a relationship ends, Pisces may feel lost, as they often merge emotionally with their partners. If an ex returns, especially with a heartfelt apology or a sincere attempt at reconciliation, Pisces is usually open to trying again.
They often believe in soulmates and may view their ex as “the one who got away.” Pisces are emotional sponges who absorb the essence of their past relationships, making it hard for them to move on completely. If there’s even a sliver of hope, they’re willing to give love another shot.
Libra: The Romantic Idealist
Libra is ruled by Venus, the planet of love and beauty, and is always in search of harmony and partnership. Even when a relationship ends, Libra may replay the best parts in their mind, focusing more on what worked than what didn’t. Their romantic nature makes them ideal candidates for rekindling love, especially if they believe balance can be restored.
Libra often struggles with decision-making, so they may not have been fully confident about ending things in the first place. Given time and space, they may start to see the relationship through rose-colored glasses and question whether the breakup was a mistake. This combination of romanticism and indecisiveness makes them more inclined to revisit a past love if the opportunity arises.
Taurus: The Loyal Rebuilder
Taurus is a sign known for its stubbornness and stability, but beneath that tough exterior is a heart that values loyalty and long-term commitment. When Taurus is in a relationship, they invest deeply and expect it to last. Even after a breakup, they may continue to care and hope for reconciliation, especially if they feel the bond was meaningful.
They’re not quick to let people in, so if they’ve formed a strong emotional connection, Taurus will do whatever it takes to preserve it. Time doesn’t easily erode their feelings. If the relationship had a solid foundation, Taurus may be more than willing to rebuild — brick by brick — as long as both partners are committed to making it work.
Getting back with an ex isn’t always the wisest move, but for some zodiac signs, the heart wants what it wants. Cancer, Pisces, Libra, and Taurus each have unique emotional traits that make them more likely to reopen old doors and try again. Whether it’s the pull of nostalgia, the belief in love’s redemptive power, or a desire to finish an unfinished story, these signs are often willing to risk a second round in the name of love. Just remember, it takes two to make it work the second time around.
