What to Expect From an Aries Man After He Breaks Up

Every star sign reacts differently to breakups, and each sign also has various ways of coping with the pain and discomfort of a relationship ending.

So, does an Aries man cry and mope after dumping his partner, or does he rebound quickly with someone new?

Once you learn more about his star sign’s typical personality characteristics and behaviors, you will know what happens to an Aries man after he breaks up with you.

He Handles His Emotions Privately

Some zodiac signs wear their hearts on their sleeve, but an Aries man prefers to keep certain negative emotions to himself.

He can easily express joy and even anger, but an Aries man dislikes showing sadness. He is much more comfortable expressing rage than depression because he thinks being sad makes him look weak.

The typical Aries man’s personality is generally optimistic. He can be cynical and acerbic at times, but he mostly tries to look at the bright side of life.

He doesn’t like to complain and he hates it when the people around him are too negative. He won’t want to whine to anyone about his breakup because he thinks it will annoy others.

He is also very independent, so he will want to deal with his sadness over the breakup by himself.

He won’t talk to his friends and family about it, and he won’t call you in the night crying for you to come back to him.

An Aries man will push his sadness and hurt down and try to handle them on his own.

He Puts On a Brave Face

Aries is known as one of the most courageous signs of the zodiac. The typical Aries guy is an adrenaline junkie, and he never shies away from activities that scare and intimidate others.

An Aries man loves extreme sports, and he can be a bit reckless because he is so uninhibited.

He never backs down from any challenge or dare, and he loves hobbies that get his pulse racing like rock climbing and bungee jumping.

For an Aries man, hiding his feelings is a way of looking brave. He is fine with showing anger and happiness because those emotions don’t make him feel weak.

But an Aries guy feels like a coward if he acts too disappointed and upset over a breakup.

He doesn’t understand how he can be unbothered by the common fears that plague others like heights, snakes, and public speaking, yet dealing with the pain of a breakup is still so terrifying to him.

When an Aries man is hurt and sad, he handles these emotions privately. Don’t take it personally if you see your Aries ex out with friends and he looks happy and unbothered by the breakup.

He is hurting inside, but he won’t want anyone else to see it. But you should know that deep down, he is sad and emotional about the relationship ending, even if he dumped you.

He Ices You Out

The typical Aries man’s communication style is honest and direct. He’s not one to mince words or sugarcoat the truth when expressing his thoughts and opinions.

If an Aries guy wants you back after dumping you, he will come to you and tell you. You will know when an Aries man misses you so much that he wants you back because he will tell you.

But when an Aries man stops talking to you completely after your breakup, it’s his very direct way of telling you that he’s done with you.

When Aries man ignores you after dumping you, he’s not playing hard to get. He’s cutting you out of his life completely because it’s the only way he knows how to handle a breakup.

He’s not trying to be cruel, but this method of protecting himself and making his feelings clear usually comes off as unkind.

He thinks it’s better to have a clean separation than to keep talking to an ex. He doesn’t want to give any false hope of reconciliation.

If you want to know how to beat an Aries man at his own game, ignore him back. Don’t keep calling and texting him, and only give him the slightest acknowledgment when you see him in person.

You don’t want to come off as impolite or bitter, but you don’t want to give him the pleasure of your time and company anymore, either.

Let him see that you’re not desperate for his attention, and that if thinks he can cut you off so easily, you won’t waste any more time on him.

He Parties

Some zodiac signs need time alone after a breakup. They are melancholy and not in the mood to socialize and party.

But an Aries guy surrounds himself with friends to help keep him distracted from his negative emotions after breaking up with his partner. He hopes to keep his mood high by going out and partying with his pals.

He also likes to drown his emotions by using substances, and alcohol offers an easy escape from the pain of the breakup.

If you see your Aries ex out at bars or he posts photos of himself partying at clubs on social media after your breakup, don’t think that he’s celebrating being single.

He’s trying to numb his emotional pain and keep from thinking too much about how much he’s hurting, not rejoicing over being done with you.

He Hits the Gym

Aries is a very physical and energetic sign. An Aries man is always on the move, and he has to exert his abundance of physical energy to feel emotionally healthy.

He always plays a sport or follows an exercise regimen, whether he’s going through a breakup or not.

But when an Aries man has just ended a relationship, he will hit the gym harder and more frequently.

He’s not trying to change his appearance because he’s single and wants to impress someone new. He’s trying to get the endorphins that naturally come from working out to cheer himself up.

Going to the gym also gives him a goal, a sense of purpose, and time to work on himself. It helps keep his mind off of the breakup because he has to focus on the physical activity.

He Stays Busy

Some zodiac signs clear their schedules so they can mourn the loss of a relationship without distractions, but an Aries man actively seeks ways to keep himself preoccupied after a breakup.

He doesn’t want to focus on the mental and emotional pain, so he finds ways to stay busy. He might take up a new hobby, pack his social calendar, or take a vacation.

Losing a relationship frees up a lot of time, and your Aries ex won’t want to waste it or spend it feeling sorry for himself.

He will avoid having too much downtime because he doesn’t want to let his mind wander back to the pain of the breakup.

He Moves On Physically

As a very physical and energetic zodiac sign, the typical Aries guy has a high libido. When it comes to physical intimacy, he moves on from a relationship quite quickly.

He will find someone new to hook up with right after a breakup. An Aries man is not interested in jumping into another relationship, but he will want to sleep with someone as soon as he can.

He’s not trying to make an emotional connection, and he won’t lead his new partner on and make her think that their relationship is about anything other than sex.

He wants to enjoy the freedom that comes with being single and hook up with different women while he can.

If you see your ex out with another girl soon after your breakup, you can rest assured that she is just a rebound for him.

He probably wasn’t interested in her while you were together, and he most likely won’t end up getting into a serious relationship with her.

Is your Aries man not communicating with you? Here's the trick to reel your Aries back in.

He Doesn’t Move On Emotionally

Although an Aries man is quick to move on physically, it takes him much longer to heal emotionally after a breakup.

When an Aries man is done with you, you don’t have to worry about him seriously dating anyone else for a long time.

He is very independent, so he enjoys being single and won’t want to rush into committing to another woman any time soon.

And because he tends to repress his sadness and other negative emotions surrounding the breakup, it takes him longer to get over it than if he would express his feelings.

While you might see your Aries guy out partying with different women, he’s not making an emotional connection with any of them.

He needs time to get over his last relationship before he can truly move on and form an intimate romantic connection with someone new.
