They don't know why they get so many compliments.
By Christine Schoenwald — Written on Jul 15, 2019
Are you fully aware of how hot you are, or do you tend to doubt your level of attractiveness? You can be confident about your appearance without being obsessed with it, you can love yourself and little too much to the point of being obnoxious, or you can have no clue how attractive you are.
Astrology may influence your ability to understand your level of attractiveness. If you are one of the modest zodiac signs, you tend to not focus on looks, but there are still a number of ways to tell if you are better-looking than you think.
Not everybody has a good idea of how attractive they are and choose to focus on different things such as their creativity, how smart or athletic they are, or even how kind they are. It’s entirely possible to not know that you’re hot.
Are people always trying to make eye contact, even when it isn't appropriate? You may think they’re looking out of boredom or just looking for something to focus on, but the truth is, they probably enjoy looking at you.
Do you have relatively few problems finding people who are interested in you and want to date you? Sure, you probably have a fantastic personality, but initially, people are attracted to you because of the way you look.
1. PISCES (February 19 - March 20)
Rarely has a Pisces person been described as "full of themselves" or "vain." Pisces are too busy helping others to be superficial or obsessed with their own appearance.
They have no idea how attractive they are, and it blows people away when they discover that this individual deals with self-esteem issues just like everybody else. Pisces seem to have an eye for beauty and can see it in everybody but themselves.
2. CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
Cancers know they have big hearts and care about people, and they assume those qualities are what draw people to them. That may be true, but that's not the only reason people are always trying to get close to them.
Cancer's hotness makes people gravitate to them and want to be around them. They're pleasantly surprised when they learn that not only are Cancers so good-looking, but they're creative and kind as well.
3. VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)
Virgos get so hung up on their own tiny imperfections and failures that they don't see the big picture, which is that they tend to be extremely hot. Virgos are smart, which doesn't detract from their overall hotness — it adds to it.
If they stopped to think about all the people in bars, shows, or restaurants who couldn't stop staring at them and who seemed mesmerized by them, Virgo might realize that it's because their attractiveness level is sky-high.
4. CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)
Capricorn is aware of their abilities and talents when it comes to work, but they're absolutely unaware of how hot they are. If Capricorn knew they were hugely attractive, they might be a little less awkward when they start to become interested in someone.
They tend to assume that their attraction isn't reciprocated, but most of the time, it is. Capricorn's insecurities are reinforced when people tend to compliment them as if they get a barrage of compliments daily, which they tend not to.
5. LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
Libras often don't have enough confidence in their attractiveness quotient and can be completely oblivious to how hot they are. Like Capricorn, they don't get a ton of compliments because people assume that Libra knows they're hot and don't want to give them a big head.
Libras need positive affirmations regarding their looks just as much as anyone, maybe more so. Their confidence is teetering between non-existent and dubious that they're hot in any way.
