The Chinese zodiac is based on the lunar year and it comprises a 12-year cycle, in which each year is represented by a particular animal. The attributes of each animal correspond with the characteristics and personality of each person born in the year associated with that animal. It provides the relationship insight into how a person will get along with their partner, and also why they won’t. Why You’re Bad At Relationships Based On Your Chinese Zodiac.
1. Rat(1996, 1984, 1972, 1960)
You choose people who are emotionally unavailable.
When you choose people who are emotionally unavailable what you’re really choosing is the ending. If you know how something is going to turn out you can’t be surprised. And if you’re choosing someone who keeps you at arm’s length, it isn’t that you’re falling in love you’re infatuated. Love scares you and that’s why you choose the people you do.
2. Ox(1997, 1985, 1973, 1961)
You gravitate toward bad boys.
You like a challenge. You will never date someone who is safe and adores you or is completely into you. That’s too easy. You keep those guys in your back pocket for safekeeping. But you’ll always choose the complicated bad boy.
3. Tiger(1998, 1986, 1974, 1962)
You jump ahead in your mind.
You tend to have long-term relationship goals too soon in relationships. It’s nice to play the game of what can this be but when it’s influencing the relationship so much you never get there, you have to take a step back and move slow.
4. Rabbit(2011, 1999, 1987, 1975, 1963)
You compare everyone to your ex.
We all have that one ex that was amazing. The one we wish we didn’t lose. But as you play the compassion game what you’re really doing is not giving a good person a fair shot.

5. Dragon(2000, 1988, 1976, 1964)
Your trust issues make you paranoid AF.
You question everyone and everything just because a few people have hurt you in the past. But don’t judge someone based on what others have done to you.
6. Snake(2001, 1989, 1977, 1965)
You let people back into your life who have hurt you.
There are some people who don’t deserve second chances.
7. Horse(2002, 1990, 1978, 1966)
You accept less than you deserve.
Accepting less than you deserve isn’t just disrespecting you yourself but it disrespects everyone who has ever treated you well consistently. Friends. Relationships. Family. If you can’t respect yourself enough to ask for more, do it for them.
8. Goat(2003, 1991, 1979, 1967)
Your date for sport.
You’ve dated so much you don’t even know what you want anymore. And if someone decent came into your life you wouldn’t even be able to recognize it.
9. Monkey(2004, 1992, 1980, 1968)
Your standards are unrealistic.
No one is perfect and having a checklist you hope people mark off is always going to leave you dissatisfied. Because no one is perfect until you fall in love with them and you can’t fall in love with anyone until you accept their flaws and realize despite these things this person is the best thing that’s ever happened to me.

You’re too selfless.
