Aries: You’re obnoxious 24/7

Do you have some intense energy? Yes. Do you often make your voice heard? Absolutely. Yet the idea that you’re constantly obnoxious to be around doesn’t really add up when people get to know you. You just want everyone to be as excited about things as you are, but you aren’t determined to rub people the wrong way.

Taurus: You’re lazy

You have an underrated dedication, Taurus. The stereotypes about you constantly lying around and eating snacks can be funny to you occasionally, but you aren’t as lazy as everyone paints you to be. You understand the importance of resting and taking care of yourself, which can appear differently to others who are used to the concept of never taking breaks.

Gemini: You lie constantly

This definitely depends on the person, but the idea that you’re a liar simply because you’re a Gemini? Beyond frustrating. This tends to come from the idea that Gemini’s change their minds often- but this usually derives from the fact that you’re always taking in new information and readjusting your worldview. You wish people would recognize that if someone is lying relentlessly it’s not because they’re a Gemini- it’s because they’re a jerk.

Cancer: You’re love-obsessed

You aren’t afraid to admit that you are in love with being in love, but the reputation set for you has gotten a little out of hand. You simply want what most people want- to be loved and secure with a person. Your affection can be intense for some people, particularly in this modern dating age. However, you don’t need another person to be complete- you just don’t see the shame in wanting that.

Leo: You only care about yourself

Anyone who has been loved by you knows this isn’t the case by any means. You have a rep for wanting attention and recognition to an insufferable degree- however, this is blown a bit out of proportion. You are unafraid to ask for the recognition you rightfully deserve when it comes to how hard you work. While most feel out of line, you know your worth and demand it be realized. This doesn’t mean you only care about yourself, but that you care enough about yourself to not be dismissed.

Virgo: You think you are better than everyone

The sarcastic part of you is probably saying “I am better than everyone” but honestly Virgo, come on. No one is harder on themselves than you, which means you hold yourself to high standards. You do the hard work of self-awareness that others hesitate to take on. While you might have your judgmental moments regarding people who refuse to work on themselves the way you do, you don’t actually believe you’re better than everyone else.

Libra: You are fake

Librans are both beloved and hated by the zodiac realm- an interesting *ahem* balance (I couldn’t help myself, sorry). The stereotype that follows Libra around is that it means you’re automatically fake. The reality is that Libras have extremely strong opinions and are open-minded beyond belief, but they do want to make their loved ones as happy as possible. This can mean not always being forthright on their thoughts and feelings when they are with so many people, or like Geminis, they learn new information and change their minds. You wish people knew that being a Libra doesn’t mean you’re fake, you’re just trying to make everyone comfortable.

Scorpio: You only care about sex

Being incredible at something doesn’t mean it’s the only thing you care about, right? You are known for being the most sensual of the zodiac signs, and because you don’t shy away from taboo topics, sex is an area you feel comfortable in. However, this mindset doesn’t just apply to sex- it’s about anything that others are afraid of/too shy to discuss openly. While you likely enjoy sex, it’s far from the only thing you care about nor is it the most interesting thing about you.

Sagittarius: You’re incapable of commitment

When it comes to relationships, you may not rush to be tied down, but it doesn’t mean you’re incapable. You aren’t willing to settle in a relationship with someone who wants to monopolize all your time, and you know yourself well enough to know you need your freedom in certain areas. You’re able to commit to someone who allows you to be yourself- and when you find them then you’re all in.

Capricorn: You’re boring

Honestly, this one is just a lazy description, but you already knew that Cap. You definitely strive to meet your goals and you can lean more traditionalist at times, but that doesn’t mean you lack personality. You work hard, but you also play hard and know how to let loose. Those who haven’t seen that side of you are people you would rather not waste time on. If people think you’re boring, it’s because they don’t know you.

Aquarius: You’re too “weird”

Yes, you’re quirky at times. Yes, you have your moments where you are determined to be different from everyone else. However, at the heart of it, you have quite a bit in common with the world around you- you just take different paths to get there. People think you’re weird because you have unique interests or different ideas on how things should be done when reality is you just have different interests. If people get to know you they realize that the stuff you’re into is often fascinating and not as “weird” as they think it is.

Pisces: You only listen to your emotions

Being in tune with something doesn’t mean it’s your only guide in life, and you wish people understood that more. You’re very empathetic and are able to relate to people on an intense level, while also being very in tune with your own emotions. People often assume you only care about emotion and therefore only listen to it when you’re making decisions. The reality is that most of the time people view emotion as weakness, and it’s one of your biggest strengths. You aren’t afraid to allow emotion into your decisions, and you do it well, which others don’t understand.
