What You Can't STAND About Other People, Based On Your Zodiac Sign
Hate it.
There are times, depending on my mood, where I feel as if I hate everybody I come into contact with. Obviously, I don’t hate everyone; in fact, there are very few people I actively dislike. But sometimes, when it seems as if everybody is a dickhead and my annoyance with people has reached about as far as it can go, I need to take a step back and try to focus in on the good of people.
Politics can make you hate everybody and how it appears that certain politicians actually do hate their constituents or at least care very little about them.
There are also those people who seem to live to put us down or make us feel less than we are, and it can be hard not to have extremely negative feelings about them. If you like someone who makes you feel like crap, that says a lot about your self-esteem.
People can do things that annoy us or that we find objectionable. Not everything everyone does is going to sit well with you and you'll find some of those things intolerable. That's just the way life works.
Sometimes people just rub you the wrong way and it escalates from there so that nothing they do makes changes your mind about them. You just can’t stand them. There are qualities that humans have that can irritate you so much that you try to avoid any contact with them.
Let’s say that every time you run into a certain friend of a friend, they are so cold to you. Even when you go out of your way to be friendly, it will get to the point where you’d rather not deal with them, then fume while they treat you as if you’re something they found on the bottom of their shoe.
Some annoyances and bad behavior you can deal with, but others not so much. Here’s what you can’t stand about other people, based on your zodiac sign.
ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
istock
You can't stand it when people do everything slowly. When you're walking with someone you want them to keep up with you and you'd prefer that they do everything at a fairly rapid pace, and that includes eating, making decisions and even paying their bills. Life is fast, so you'd like if everyone's inner clock was revved up a little bit. If someone takes too long to pay at the grocery store or at the fast food counter, you get very annoyed.

TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)
istock
You hate it when people touch your stuff. Hey, if they want to touch you and they've been thoroughly vetted that's okay, but you hate when people feel the fabric of the shirt you're wearing or they get fingerprints all over your mirrors and artwork. If someone subconsciously takes your pen and puts it in their mouth, you feel as if you may vomit. Your things are your own and if you wanted them to be fingered, you'd say so.

GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
istock
You hate it when people interrupt you and correct you when you're speaking. So you said something that wasn't entirely true. It can wait 10 seconds until you're finished speaking, but there are people who feel that you need to be corrected immediately. You find it rude and irritating and you absolutely despise people who do it to you as if they're superior to you in some way.

CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
istock
You can't stand people who impulse buy to the point where their houses are full of secondhand and cheap crap. Your home is your heart and you shouldn't fill it with ugly, useless, and inexpensive junk. It's better to buy a few good pieces of furniture rather than a bunch of stuff that's going to break the moment they're used.

LEO (July 23 - August 22)
istock
You can't stand it when people patronize you and talk down to you as if you're a child. Hello, do they not know how amazing you are? If not, then they must be blind. When someone is condescending to you, it just gets your back up and you get antagonistic and arrogant.

VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)
istock
You secretly hate people who do things half-assed. People need to take pride in their work and everyone knows that when something is done well, it will last. If you do a piss-poor job on something, it reflects badly on you. There's no excuse not to do things well. Do the research before you start a project, watch some tutorials, and ask some experts.

LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
istock
You can't stand it when people don't like you, so you decide that you don't like them either — that way their dislike isn't a reflection on you. You want everybody to like you but that's impossible. At least if it's a mutual dislike you don't have to feel as if all your power was taken away from you.

SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)
istock
You secretly hate people who are fakes and pretend to be something they're not. When someone gives you a backhanded compliment (or chocolate-covered razor blades as they're called in the South), that's just as bad as telling a lie, in some ways worse because they're a way to put you down while appearing to be kind. You prefer that people be their true selves and say what they mean.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
istock
You can't stand the gloom and doom people. You want to look on the bright side and see the good things that life has to offer. It's highly aggravating to you when someone is pessimistic and a downer. It affects your mood in a very negative way and you don't appreciate that at all.

CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)
istock
You hate when people don't respect you. You've worked hard all your life and you've earned everything you have, and when someone disrespects you or tries to demean you in any way, you'll remember it forever and they will never be able to earn your acceptance in return.

AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)
istock
You can't stand it when people don't accept you for who you are and try to change you. You've made peace with who you are and if you wanted to change or thought there was a need for it, you'd do it. But for someone to try to force you to be someone different than you are, well... that's just unacceptable.

PISCES (February 19 - March 20)
istock
You hate people who are always trying to tell you what to do. You hate to be bossed around and you don't enjoy unsolicited advice. You'd wish they just keep their suggestions about your life to themselves. You're doing fine on your own.
