You may never know what they really feel.

Many people who claim to possess the feeling of love act in all kinds of unloving and destructive ways
On the other hand, a genuinely loving individual often takes constructive and loving action towards another person.
This is because they have a genuine concern for the well being of the other person in their heart. These are people who are inherently warm-hearted, caring, loving, generous and kind.
On the other hand, there are people who have character traits like narcissism and sadism who don't show real emotion and only think about their well being. They are cold-hearted and unconcerned about the needs of others.
When entering into a relationship, we certainly don’t want to fall for a person who is cold-hearted, narcissistic, judgmental or obnoxious.
Although it takes little time to gauge someone’s personality traits and we should take our time to get to know someone, we can utilize the wisdom of ancient art of astrology to gauge particular personality traits.
A cold-hearted person is someone who is emotionally unavailable and lacks empathy. He can’t think beyond him and he is not moved by someone’s sadness or needs.
It won’t matter if you pour out your heart out to them or do any special gesture to express your love for them, they won’t be moved. They are only interested in getting their needs met and all conversations with them would mostly revolve around themselves.
Here is a list of 6 zodiac signs that are prone to being cold-hearted.
1. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 21)
Sagittarius is a fiery fire sign. They are very ambitious. They think big.
The only downside is that they can get too self-centered because of their ambition. They are too occupied with their own plans, targets, goals, and success.
Even when they are communicating with you, they would mostly be interested in talking about themselves and what is going on in their lives instead of being excited about your life happenings.
It will be a rare event when they will ask you a question about yourself and even if they do, it’s usually a way of getting some information.
2. CANCER (June 21 – July 22)
Cancer is a Cardinal water sign. Their ruling planet is the moon. They are highly sensitive, emotional and have extreme mood swings.
It is a little difficult to digest that the most emotional signs of the zodiac would make it to the list of cold-hearted zodiac signs. But it is precisely because of their emotional nature that they face a lot of heartbreaks in their life and they learn to harden their heart, even it is only for self-preservation.
But they forget that being cold-hearted and holding back their feelings is not the right way to go about for dealing with their mood swings and sensitivity. What they need to strike is a balance between being too emotional or too cold-hearted.
3. AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 18)
Aquarius is an Air sign. They are very unconventional, rebellious, wild, go-getters and logical. They tend toward intellectual ideas and creating new things.
However, the downside is they are not very comfortable with emotions.
It’s not that they are insensitive or don’t have any emotions but they give more preference to logic and intellect. They will feel very uncomfortable if someone unpacks their emotional baggage in front of them and they don’t want to hear about all the painful things that are going in someone’s life. They might just insensitively ask you to change the topic as well.
They take pride in their intellect and logic and would not share their own emotional vulnerabilities with others. They would rather be aloof and solve their own problems rather than taking the chance of sharing their vulnerability with someone else.
4. SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21)
Scorpio is again a water sign. Scorpios are known for their passion and intensity. The downside is that their intensity can make them turn hostile.
When a Scorpio feels hurt, they will become extremely cold-hearted and seek revenge at any cost. They will turn manipulative, cold and try to find out all your weaknesses and strike when you least expect it.
Scorpios are also known to be extremely secretive. They use their charm and passion to hide all their weakness and secrets. They may have a lot of skeletons in their closet and you would not even come to know anything about it.
5. VIRGO (August 23 – September 22)
Virgo is an Earth Sign. They are very meticulous, analytical and hardworking. They are very rational, practical and logical. They are very methodical and want to be in control of everything. They plan ahead and even plan things to the minutest of details.
The downside of this is that they can learn to stay so much in their head that they can completely forget to be in touch with their emotions. When they fell hurt or cheated, they will do it silently and coldly.
6. TAURUS (April 20 – May 20)
Taurus is an Earth sign. They are loyal, patient, hardworking, and seek material comfort and possessions.
The downside is that they are too rigid and stubborn and don’t want to change.
If you ever get into an argument with Taurean, they will never give in to your perspective. They will stick to their perspective and will never budge an inch to compromise or reach a common ground. They have a very fragile ego and being right to them is more important to them than maintaining a cordial relationship.
They are also very ambitious and materialistic and if someone comes in the way of their achievement or possession, they will deal with them in an absolutely cold and emotionless manner.
