They hate being wrong which also means they have to be vulnerable enough to apologise to others. And Leos just can't do that.
Represented by the lion who holds pride in being a leader, Leos hate to be told that they are wrong. Because they have a superior complex, they are frequently offended when someone points out their flaws and find it extremely difficult to accept their mistakes without getting hurt.
Ego, Anger, and Revenge
A Leo has a super fragile ego, takes everything personally, and can become hurt and angry at the smallest sign of disrespect. When this happens, they lose their regal composure, become dramatically ferocious, and metaphorically go for the kill.
A Leo can forgive anything but being ignored is not one of them. They like to be acknowledged and appreciated. Ignoring a lion is like asking to be mauled. Don't do it – even in spite – they will never forgive you.
Leo. You can usually tell whether someone has a high ego since they also likely have a strong sense of uncertainty or uneasiness. Don't let the self-assurance of Leos deceive you; they are just as insecure about themselves as everyone else.
'You're overthinking'
Leo by nature are deep thinkers as they try to seek a solution to each and every problem and they hate asking for help. Because of this they try to introspect and analyse situations by themselves and thus, indulge into overthinking.
They do not let failure or setback hold them back and this applies to their relationships as well. They won't give up easily and will do their best to work through problems. They're loyal and honest and they won't beat around the bush.
Actions often speak louder than words to you, Leo. And you're bound to approach apologies with the same fervor for doing, rather than saying: "Leos often apologize through a grand or romantic gesture or by showing extra affection," says Murphy.
Leos can hold a grudge forever. They will definitely let you know that they don't want you in their life. However, if you can't take the hint or if you hurt them really bad, they will straight away push you out of their lives.
A Leo's initial reaction to an unexpected split is often complete shock that someone could lose interest in them, followed by devastating anguish. During a breakup, Leos feel as if their sun has been eclipsed. It's a totally heart-wrenching experience, and these lions aren't afraid to showcase their suffering.
Leo's tend to be very emotionally insecure in relationships. They live in constant fear of being taken advantage of or being cheated on. They can also be very jealous and possessive and demand constant attention and priority over other things in your life.
One of the signs that a Leo woman is hurting is that she'll become more short-tempered and have dark moods. She may snap at you over small things and may even start to pick fights with you for no reason. This is because when a Leo woman is hurt, she often takes her anger and frustration out on the person who hurt her.
Without first leaving a lasting impression with your positive traits, it's difficult to make a Leo man regret losing you. You'll need to appeal to both his advantages and disadvantages if you want to make him miss and crave for you. You also shouldn't cling to him so tightly that he begins to feel suffocated by you.
You can actually trust a Leo to keep your secrets, but beware, they can let them out if it compromises their own position and threatens their near and dear ones. You can't count on them to be there for you all the time, because they prefer to be in situations that excites them.
They love making friends and are natural-born leaders. However, Leos have a tendency to believe that they are never wrong, which makes them really difficult to be around in general, let alone be friends with. Although fiercely loyal and generous, Leo is also known to be self-involved and jealous.
Leo. Not the most patient with being told what to do or others' opinions about their lives, Leos have a notorious reputation for being short-tempered. While it is true that you are easily forgiving of others' behaviour, it helps to assume responsibility for your own actions as well.
Leo: Being unappreciated
For Leos, being unappreciated is the biggest turn-off. Leos are fire signs that want to be in the spotlight and crave attention and admiration. They are the ultimate leaders who love to be appreciated, praised, and adored.
Leo, being ruled by the Sun, and being a fire sign, is loud and clear when they're angry. They can be even more aggressive than Aries. They could use words that could cut you deep and will take things very personally. It could take some time for Leo to ground their anger.
They are not satisfied with life even when things are going spectacularly well for them. It is because they are thinking that life can always be better. Also, Leos love being the center of attention, and what better way to grab it than to start wailing.
Leos can get quite egoistic when they face rejection in love and might retire into their cocoon for days. They have this go-getter attitude and feel emotionally bruised when they don't get what they wished for.
He's physically affectionate with you.
You might notice your Leo will go in for a longer hug or playfully swat you on the arm to make a point. Physical touch is his way of connecting with you and letting you know how he feels. Match your Leo's level of attention and affection.
Leos are very confident about themselves and know exactly what they are worth. So, when their ex mentions about a possible breakup, they will immediately move on right then and there, because to Leos, their self-worth is much more important than bowing down to hurt and past grudges.
No matter how confident they look, Leos get all sad and sloppy when going through a breakup. It is very hard for them to forget the one they were in a relationship with. They keep crying and lamenting about their ex and what difference they could've done to prevent the breakup.
Keep an upbeat attitude and always look on the bright side of things while you're around your Leo. This manner, even if you aren't present, your good aura will cause them to miss you. You now have the skills you need to keep their attention focused on you.
