When it comes to making up with your boo after a fight, there's hardly a one-size-fits-all approach. Sure you can take the classic (read: safe) dinner and flowers approach, but let's be honest, wouldn't you rather win them over with something more personalised and meaningful? Speaking of personalised, zodiac signs are practically a Dummies Guide to unique personality traits, and understanding them is how you can make your apology strategy much more effective.
So dive in to find out how you can turn your apology into a fun gesture that not only smooths things over but also brings you two closer!
Aries are spontaneous and love surprises and that's exactly how you win them over after a fight—you plan something exciting, like a surprise getaway or a thrilling, adrenaline-filled activity that appeals to their bold side. This helps shake off the tension and shows that you're ready to move past the fight and work on your relationship.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Taureans are all about meaningful gestures. You need not plan a luxury escape to win them over; a simple but heartfelt one like preparing their favourite comfort meal or a thoughtful gift is all you need to show you're ready to make up.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Geminis are known to be chatty, so when it comes to making up after a fight, an open conversation is the most helpful resolution. But don't go bombarding them with deep conversations. A light-hearted conversation is the best way to address the issue. You could also use humour to ease tension and get them talking again.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Cancerians are emotional beings, so you have to be careful with your apology. Make sure you give them some space after a fight, don't hound them. Then, proceed with a heartfelt apology, followed by a loving gesture, like spending quality time together (and a lot of affection), which will make them feel safe and valued in the relationship.
Leos are practical and won't chase after drama. After a fight, they may seem distant. So if you're trying to win them over, be sure to acknowledge their feelings and offer sincere compliments. They love feeling adored, and showering them with compliments will ease any lingering tension.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Virgos are solution-driven beings. A sincere apology is a must, of course, but be sure to pack a realistic strategy to fix the issue as well. They appreciate thoughtful solutions, so showing them you're committed to working things out is the only way you're going to win them over.
Libra (September 23 - October 22)
Librans crave balance and harmony in their lives. So restoring this harmony after a fight is essential in order to win them over. Make them feel understood, and suggest a romantic activity together like an intimate dinner or a romantic walk, which will help smooth things over.
Scorpios need their space after a fight. That said, your apology strategy needs to be honest and vulnerable. They're not about grand gestures and planned surprises. Rather, they appreciate authenticity, so proving you understand their feelings will help rebuild trust.
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
Sagittarius values effort, even after a fight. Show sincere remorse and a willingness to improve, then reignite their adventurous spirit with a spontaneous outing or weekend getaway. Stay optimistic and avoid dwelling on the past.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
Capricorns aren't fans of conflict, and their way of dealing with it is by pretending it doesn't exist. So if you're trying to win them over after a fight, approach them with a calm, well-thought-out plan. You could also ask for their advice, which appeals to their ambitious nature, making them feel valued.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
When going with an apology strategy for Aquarius, leave out the crocodile tears. They hate overly emotional interactions, especially after a fight. Instead, approach the situation with a solution followed by an offbeat idea or activity that stimulates their curiosity and intellect.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Pisces are dreamers who are driven by creativity. While a heartfelt apology is a must, you can throw in a creative gesture like a handwritten letter or a thoughtful gift, which shows your effort to connect on an emotional level, and that is how you win them over.
