“Mother says there are locked rooms inside all women; kitchen of lust, / bedroom of grief, bathroom of apathy. / Sometimes, the men – they come with keys, / and sometimes, the men – they come with hammers.”
— Warsan Shire

“حرقت قلبي”—
-Arab saying
You burned my heart.
The feeling you get when someone who you love is in pain and you can’t help or cant do enough. The feeling is like someone is literally holding your heart to a set of flames.

Faithful Zodiac Signs:
Taurus: April 20 – May 20
The Bull loves his “creature comforts” and is very sensual. He thrives on stability and is usually extremely dependable, reliable, and loyal. Taureans are great planners and are always looking ahead, ready to tackle any problems that might arise in their lives, including possible obstacles in their marriage or relationship.
Cancer: June 22 – July 22
Of all the 12 signs, Cancer is the most concerned with a secure, loving relationship. The Crab loves home and family and is not happy unless he has deep emotional ties. The Cancerian is usually very nurturing and tends to take good care of everyone he cares about.
Virgo: August 23 – September 22
Virgos are sensitive, creative and tend to be intuitive when it comes to the feelings and needs of others. They are usually very supportive of friends and lovers, always ready to provide a “shoulder to cry on.” The kind Virgin often makes a wonderful life partner.
Libra: September 23 – October 22
This sign seeks peace and harmony (especially in relationships) due to an innate longing for justice and fairness. Libras are creative and multifaceted, and when trouble rears its ugly head in a relationship, the Libra will often escape into his own little world to sort things out. Usually an exciting lover, Libras tend to be trustworthy and loyal.
Capricorn: December 22 – January 19
The Goat loves stability, especially in a relationship. Most Capricorns realize that success in any form requires hard work and determination, and the Goat is not afraid of either. When obstacles in a relationship arise, as they always do, Capricorn has the patience required to work things out.
Signs that are Hard to Hold:
Aries March 21 – April 19
The Ram is independent and impulsive, often acting before fully considering the consequences of their actions. They also have a voracious appetite for adventure, which could very well include multiple lovers and numerous affairs.
Gemini May 21 – June 21
The Twins are daring and curious. They thrive on excitement, and sometimes on danger. They’re also incredibly mischievous and enjoy playing games, even with the hearts and minds of others. They become easily bored with a lover once the “new” has worn off.
Leo July 23 – August 22
The Lion is a perfectionist and is always on the prowl for the “perfect” mate. Unfortunately, few relationships are perfect, and once a Leo discovers that his lover can’t or won’t keep up with him sexually and intellectually, he’ll move on to more fertile ground. The king of the jungle often has a long history of numerous lovers and relationships.
Scorpio October 23 – November 21
Scorpios are often the most powerful beings among the zodiac signs, and they love and seek power. They are difficult to get to know, as they often hide their true feelings. Reasons a relationship with a Scorpio can be difficult include the Scorpion’s tendency to always thinks he’s right and that he’s not very forgiving. Once they feel that they’ve been wronged, it’s difficult for them to “forgive and forget.”
Sagittarius November 22 – December 21
The Archer is generally a free spirit who hates rules, including the restrictions inherent in a monogamous relationship. This sign loves exploration of all kinds, including adventurous forays into the areas of sex and relationships.
Aquarius January 20 – February 18
This sign is often flighty and unpredictable. The Water Bearer is very independent and unconventional. Many who fall under this sign might eschew the bonds of marriage or serious relationships, seeing them as boring.
Pisces February 19 – March 20
The most sensitive sign in the zodiac, Pisceans often battle conflicting inner emotions. The Fish live in their own little fantasy land and sometimes have difficulty handling the demands of the real world, including relationships. They become easily disillusioned when a lover or a relationship does not meet the high expectations of their fantasies.
