How to Deal with a Girlfriend Who Is Obsessed with Astrology

Astrology is probably one of the most hated topics in terms of modern relationships.

Most men don’t want to hear about it from their partners. Some relationships even lead to a breakup because their partners always talk about it.

So, what happens if your girlfriend becomes obsessed with astrology?

She’s not simply interested, but is fixated with it to the point that she uses it to make everyday decisions.

In this case, read further as I list down how to deal with someone who’s obsessed with astrology.

Why Are Women So Interested in Astrology?

For starters, women don’t just become obsessed with astrology for nothing. Like how they use makeup to look nice and pretty, they also use their birth chart to learn something.

In this case, it is to understand themselves and everyone around them.

According to the Cambridge Dictionary, astrology is the study of the movements and positions of the sun, moon, planets, and stars, with the belief that they affect the character and lives of people.

Since this is basically the use of astrology, women take advantage of this insight to make themselves and their relationships with other people better.

Why Does Astrology Become a Problem in Relationships?

I have seen a lot of men post about their bad experiences online.

According to them, their girlfriends take their zodiac signs and birth charts to another level. Instead of simply using it for fun, they rely on it for everyday decisions.

I wholeheartedly agree with why this becomes a reason for breaking up.

Astrology is fun, but there’s a limit to such an interest. This should not interfere with your relationship. Most of all, women should not rely solely on it for everyday decisions.

Being interested in astrology is one thing, but using it like some sort of life manual is another thing.

As I’ve said, this should not interfere with your relationship and decision-making. If it does, then you need to talk about it with your partner.

Before you do, make sure to keep the following tips in mind:

#1. Don’t mock her during your conversation.

No matter how toxic your relationship has been due to your girlfriend’s beliefs, don’t ever mock her for liking astrology.

Don’t make fun of this topic during your one-on-one conversation. Instead, be mature and act accordingly.

Remember, as a good partner, you should understand her perspective and respect her ideas and beliefs. Don’t invalidate her feelings. Astrology may seem like a bunch of nonsense to you, but it means the world to her.

#2. Communicate your thoughts effectively.

Since this has become a problem, you must communicate your thoughts and feelings about the matter. The caveat, however, is to talk about it effectively.

Don’t just say something without thinking about it beforehand. It’s best to carefully highlight your pointers so that no problem will be left unsolved.

Also, consider your partner’s feelings. Your goal is to solve the problem. You can’t do that when you shout and create an even bigger conflict.

#3. Let go or give it another chance.

Honestly, it’s up to you.

If you can still work on your relationship and you are both willing to compromise, then give it another chance.

However, if this involves bullying and abuse (such as disrespecting your boundaries and forcing you to do something), then you need to let your relationship go.

Communication is Key

Here’s the deal. Astrology is merely a topic with which women are obsessed these days.

If your partner is interested in it, let her be. Don’t mock her for what she does for fun.

However, if she becomes obsessed with it and it’s affecting your relationship, then it’s best to talk to her about her unhealthy behavior.

There’s a limit on what your partner should and should not do for the sake of their interest. In the end, you need to make a decision for the benefit of your relationship and your well-being.
