Think you might be (or know) a stage-five clinger?Here are the top sixclingiest signs in thezodiacs, ranked.
6. Pisces (Feb 19 - March 20)
Known for their active imaginations, Pisces may want to have a long deep talk to get to the bottom of why a relationship failed. Otherwise, brace yourself for those "Was it something I did?" "How can I make this better?" texts at two in the morning. Pisces are not known to be party animals, so if you're outgoing, (talking to you, Sagittarius) you'll find yourself feeling trapped and smothered by a Pisces's love.When you want to hang out with friends and try new adventures, they'll still want alone time with just you.
5. Leo (July 23 - Aug 22)
Leos are constantly seeking praise and appreciation, so if you're a person who has no issue affirming others, you may find yourself latched onto a Leo who's clinging on for dear life. Leos are also known to be quite prideful, so they may be hanging on to protect their ego.
4. Virgo (Aug 23 - Sept 22)

2. Cancer(Jun 21 - July 22)
Known for their nurturing nature, Cancers are prone to overcompensate when they feel you pulling away.They'll be the perfect sign to have around when you're going a rough patch, though—cooking for you, cleaning after you and listening to you until you're back on your feet. However, they can be tough to get rid of when you need some space to recuperate.
1. Taurus(Apr 20 - May 20)
The bull. Tauruses take the top spot because they have two modes of operation—all in or all out. Once they set their sights on you, it's easy to see why they won't let go. Taurus is also ruled by Venus, the planet of love and beauty so a Taurus in love can be hard to shake off.
