What Makes Each Zodiac Sign Feel Severely Uncomfortable
What gets you way out of your comfort zone?
Victoria Bui on Pexels Everyone has a personal bubble that keeps them within a certain comfort zone. One zodiac sign's comfort levels aren't going to be exactly the same as another sign and your horoscope plays a role in that.
Depending on what makes your zodiac sign crazy uncomfortable, you might have feelings of anxiety and stress or even annoyance attached to it.
I’m prepared for people not to like this answer, but children make me uncomfortable; and by children, I mean any person from ages newborn to about 18 years old… but especially newborns and toddlers.
I never know what to do around them, they’re always sticky and screaming, and if you asked me to hold your child, I would have to decline.
I have no maternal bones in my body and I don’t see that changing any time soon. The other reason kids make me so uncomfortable is because I don’t know how to be in charge of them.
I usually end up talking to them like little adults instead of children, which is just uncomfortable in itself.
I also remember once when I worked in retail (ahh, the joys of retail) when a customer plopped her two children down on the store’s sofa, told them to wait there, and then told me to watch her kids while she shopped in a store across the mall from us.
For SO many reasons, lady, absolutely not.
Not only did that whole situation make me crazy uncomfortable, but it was made even worse by having a stranger back me into a corner and force me to watch your kids while you went off on your own.
You can imagine how out of my comfort zone I felt during that and any other time I’ve been around kids, and I’m sure you can relate to it from your own uncomfortable experiences.
I’d like to say that I have no problem getting out of my comfort zone, trying new things, and being adventurous, but being around tiny humans is NOT one of those times.
According to astrology, your own zodiac sign feels the same way I do about something that makes you crazy uncomfortable.
Maybe dealing with people who tell you what to do drives you up a wall or maybe being in situations where you can’t be yourself is too awkward to handle.
Whatever it is, you’re not the only one who gets totally weird in situations like this.
What’s more, we all handle these uncomfortable situations differently; not necessarily in a healthy way, but we all have our methods of getting back to that comfort zone we all know and love.
Maybe you take some alone time away from whatever or whoever is making you feel uneasy, or maybe you accommodate the situation to something you’re more accustom to.
However you do that is based on your horoscope, too.
So, keep reading to find out what makes your zodiac sign crazy uncomfortable.
ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
What makes Aries most uncomfortable is when people change plans on her last minute. She has a big schedule full of crazy things every single day, so canceling on her is a big no-no.
Of course, she understands that things come up, but she also knows that you wouldn't knowingly leave her hanging.
To Aries, there is only a finite amount of time she has to get the things she needs done, so when she pencils you into her schedule, she expects you to follow through with your plans.
Dealing with canceled plans just makes her feel neurotic and all over the place.
TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)
Taurus is all about her routines. In fact, she might not even realize how many things in her life require routines, but trust me, they're there.
For her, not having a routine is just way too volatile for her to handle. She likes that routines keep her from the hectic changes that come with not being prepared.
So, naturally, the thing that would make Taurus the most uncomfortable would be changes in her daily routines.
Changes make it hard for her to confidently go about her day, which might not seem like a big deal to some signs, but is everything to Taurus.
GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
Gemini needs to communicate in order to survive. Sound crazy? To Gemini, it's not. Being able to say what she needs to say when she needs to say it is how she keeps herself sane.
So, what makes her crazy uncomfortable is long silences, obviously. Long silences are to Gemini what nails down a chalkboard is to pretty much everyone. In a word, painfully uncomfortable.
When Gemini is met with long silences, not only is she uncomfortable, but the silence also makes her mind run like crazy.
She starts questioning everything she did up until then and worries that she did something wrong. Being this uncomfortable isn't worth her sanity.
CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
Cancer is a very thoughtful person. She takes a lot of time thinking through her decisions so that she always feels confident in her choices, no matter what they are.
What she doesn’t like is when people tell her what to do or try to persuade her into making other choices, simply because they think she needs help.
Peer pressure makes Cancer very uncomfortable. It makes her feel like she should always question herself, even when she takes the time to put thought into her decisions.
And instead of agreeing with what others say, peer pressure just makes her want to push back harder.
LEO (July 23 - August 22)
Leo takes a lot of pride in the people she surrounds herself with. She knows that finding people you can vibe with no matter what the situation isn't always easy.
When you do find those people, you should hold them close. She also knows that she needs to have mutual respect with the people she's closest with.
What makes Leo most uncomfortable is being the third wheel.
She has no problem with hanging out with other couples, but when they take things too far, she's crazy uncomfortable.
This is where the mutual respect comes in; she would never do that to her friends, so they should be respectful enough to return the favor, right?
VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)
Virgo is a well-oiled machine, just ask anyone who knows her. She works hard, she plays hard, and she knows exactly what it takes to be the boss.
That is, the boss of her own life. When it comes to others, she doesn't like being in charge; it makes her SO uncomfortable.
She feels that if she can handle her own stuff, everyone else should be able to, too.
The reason Virgo hates being in charge of other people so much — besides the fact that every adult should have that handled by now — is that being in charge means having to set some rules and boundaries for everyone around her.
Virgo is amazing at that for herself, but for others? No way. She'd rather just let someone else be the boss so she can do her own thing anyway.
LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
Libra is a very fierce friend, there's no doubt about that... But she's kind of like Rihanna in a crisis; you should probably call someone else if you need serious help.
Sure, she'll always have your back, but when it comes to defending you over something, she's nowhere to be found.
For Libra, defending someone who isn't herself is just plain uncomfortable.
She'll feel awful about not knowing how to help you effectively, but it's just not gonna happen.
Chalk it up to her inability to handle confrontation because that makes her crazy uncomfortable, as well.
SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)
Scorpio is the type of person who shares things with people once she warms up to them. Even then, you really do have to be one of her best friends to know everything about her.
So, when it comes to meeting new people, Scorpio has to be in charge, otherwise the conversation with her doesn't happen.
For Scorpio, the most uncomfortable thing ever is personal questions.
It feels less like someone is trying to get to know her better and more like someone is trying to poke into her life without permission.
It seems a little too crazy, even for Scorpio, but that's just the kind of girl she is. She likes protecting herself and this is just her way of doing it.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
If you know anything about Sagittarius, then you know that she is VERY honest. In fact, some people would call her brutally honest.
She isn't the type of person to pull punches with you because she feels like if you don't like her when she's being upfront with you, then chances are you will probably never like her that much.
Plus, Sagittarius doesn't want to be around people who don't really care what she has to say, as long as she's pleasant.
What makes her most uncomfortable is lying to be nice to someone.
She can sniff that out from a mile away (and she hates being fake), so she should never be caught dead doing that to someone just because.
CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)
If there is one sign who could make being a homebody look chic, it's Capricorn.
She might not always be up for going out, but whenever you stay in for the night with her, you can totally see why she loves being at home.
When she does venture out, though, she does it because she knows she gets to spend time with her friends and family doing something fun.
So, naturally, it makes Capricorn crazy uncomfortable when she's ditched in public.
Even if you're both at a party together and you go off to say hi to someone, she considers that being ditched.
She came out to hang with you, not for you to go off with other people.
If Capricorn is going to be uncomfortable, she'd rather just stay home anyway where she's happy.
AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)
Aquarius takes a lot of pride in being the kind of person others would call progressive or open-minded.
She loves trying new things, meeting interesting people, and considering others' points of view.
So, when she's met with people who are so close-minded, it's scary (and in this day and age, it's always scary), she gets very uncomfortable.
On one hand, she wants to ask these people how they could be so narrow-minded, especially nowadays.
On the other hand, she doesn’t want to spend any more time than she has to around people who would rather judge others than welcome everyone.
Best to stay off Twitter, girl.
PISCES (February 19 - March 20)
Pisces is a very open-hearted, welcoming person who loves connecting with like-minded people.
When she finds others who feel the same way she does about the world and life, she feels like she's vibing with the right people.
She also feels like she can say and do whatever makes her comfortable because she knows no one will judge her.
What makes Pisces so uncomfortable is the complete opposite of that.
She can't stand authority and rules one because she hates being told what to do, but two because rules make her feel like she's being punished for the person she wants to be.
If she can't be herself, then she'd rather find a place (or people) who will let her get in touch with her true self.
