Sometimes, things seem really great at first, but then they start to realize that they're not really happy at all. The point is, there are lots of reasons why someone might discover that they don't dig their new relationship. These are some of the biggest warning signs.

    My bf is a Gemini and he's very aggressive and he gets irritated really quickly. How to tackle him? Im a scorpion so we both are short tempered. But I just calm down so that his anger doesn't get aggravated

    @Aakriti Raina so i think that them both being geminis does not make their bond stronger than the bond you have with him. and seeing that theyre bffs im guessing theyve been friends for a long time which means he couldve dated her if he had wanted to but
