Hey, cosmic comrades! Medison here, back to untangle love’s messiest mysteries. Ever dated someone who felt like a “soulmate”… until they ghosted you for their ex’s cousin’s dog walker? 🙃 Let’s unpack why we’re drawn to toxic matches—plus, why your zodiac sign might be (partly) to blame.
The Heart’s Bad GPS: Psychology’s Take
According to therapists, falling for the wrong person isn’t random—it’s often programmed. Here’s why:
- Attachment Styles: If you had a distant parent, you might chase emotionally unavailable partners (thanks, Freud).
- Repetition Compulsion: Psychologist Dr. Lena Hart says, “We replay childhood dynamics to ‘fix’ them, even subconsciously.”
- Chemistry ≠ Compatibility: Dopamine hits from drama can trick us into thinking chaos = passion.
Medison’s Hot Take: “Ever notice ‘bad boys/girls’ are like glitter? Fun at first, but a nightmare to clean up.”

Astrology’s Spin: When the Stars Sabotage You
Meanwhile, astrologers argue your chart literally maps your relationship pitfalls:
- Venus in Scorpio: Drawn to intensity, even if it’s toxic.
- Mars in Libra: Avoids conflict, so you tolerate red flags.
- 7th House Drama: A packed 7th house (relationships) in chaotic signs like Gemini or Aries can mean serial dating disasters.
Astrologer Raj Verma jokes, “Blame Mercury retrograde? Nah. Blame your Venus sign for swiping right on that hot mess.”

Psychology vs. Astrology: Who’s Really Guilty?
Let’s compare these two culprits:
| Psychology | Astrology |
|---|---|
| Blames childhood trauma | Blames Saturn’s karma |
| Says fix your patterns | Says check your transits |
| Recommends therapy | Recommends crystals… or a new moon ritual |
Medison’s Verdict: “Psychology heals the past; astrology warns about the future. Use both, and you’ll dodge 80% of bad dates.”
