5 Zodiac Signs Who Always Feel Left Out
Did your invitation get lost?
It sucks to feel left out. It's a feeling that can take you right back to middle school where no matter how many friends you had, you still felt misunderstood and unpopular.
And if we study astrology and the personalities of the signs, there are some zodiac signs who feel left out quite frequently. You can be the most independent person on the planet or someone who enjoys doing things by themselves, but it still stings when you hear of an event you weren’t invited to.
That’s one thing about social media: it can really make you feel left out and on the sidelines when you look at pictures of the party you weren’t invited to or barbecue where your wasn't on the invitation list. Why doesn’t anyone want to hang out with you? What is it about you that makes people forget or choose not to invite you?
If you feel left out of situations, find some way to invite yourself or make alternative plans. Don't be dependent on others for your happiness!
1. PISCES (February 19 - March 20)
Pisces are sensitive, and they can take a simple oversight and turn it into a planned slight. People love Pisces and they always like being around them, but this zodiac sign often prefers to stay home and work on their art or just hang out.
If you cancel enough invitations, people are going to stop inviting you. Pisces need to be honest with themselves and think about what they're putting out there. If they want to be included more, they should start saying yes to more things.
2. CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)
When Capricorn is feeling left out, they tend to bury those feelings and act like they're okay when they're not. They need to be honest about how they're feeling and then do what they're so good: come up with a plan.
Do they need to make new friends or join a meetup? What active thing can they participate in that will make them feel included and build up their self-confidence? If Capricorn changes their mindset and sets goals, they'll probably get invited to more events than they can handle.
3. VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)
When Virgo is feeling left out, they tend to try to rationalize it away. They'll tell themselves they didn't want to go to that party anyway and they may start to pick apart why the whole thing was stupid.
Virgo would feel better if they let down their guard a little and reached out to a friend or family member to talk about their feelings. If they are honest, they will see that they're actually included in gatherings and events.
4. SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)
When Scorpio feels left out, they can get jealous and feel like the world is having a better time than they are. The more resentful they get, the further away they get from seeing the truth, and they start catastrophizing and thinking things like, "Everybody is mad at me," "Nobody likes me," and "They purposely excluded me."
Scorpio needs to step back, take a moment, and remember that feelings aren't always the way things are. The truth most likely is that everyone isn't mad at them; they have many people who adore them, and they aren't always forgotten.
5. CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
Cancers always feel left out because they take things too personally and can become emotional. This is the time when they need to reach out to a friend and talk about their feelings. Cancers are extremely caring towards other people, but sometimes they need to care for themselves and are reticent about asking for it.
It's okay to feel hurt if you're excluded from something, but Cancer needs to remember that it's not the end of the world and they're invited to things all the time. When Cancer has gatherings, they're not able to invite everybody, but that doesn't mean they don't like everyone they didn't invite.
There may have been a good reason that Cancer was left out, and there will be plenty of times in the future when they'll be at the top of the guest list.
