4 Zodiacs Who Have Been Pretending To Be Fine This February
February hasn’t been the best month for everyone in the zodiac. Some signs have been struggling more than they would like to admit. They have been dealing with problems that are keeping them up at night, with feelings that they wish would disappear. Here are some zodiacs who have been pretending to be fine this February even though they’ve been secretly struggling:
Cancer, you always consider how others will react before opening your mouth. While it’s sweet that you care so deeply about the people around you, this type of behavior can be dangerous. After all, you don’t want your whole life to turn into a performance. You don’t want to lie to the people who trust you the most. I know that it’s hard to admit when you’re struggling, especially when you don’t want to cause additional stress for the people who love you. But you need to remember that it’s dangerous to stuff these emotions inside. You’re allowed to share your feelings and your experiences. You don’t have to keep pretending. The people who care about you the most would rather have you be honest than tell pretty little lies.
Capricorn, your default mode is fine because you don’t want the world to know about your problems. You don’t want strangers, and sometimes even close friends, knowing how much you’re really suffering. Why? Because you were taught not to complain. Because you feel like your problems pale in comparison to everyone else’s. Because you feel like you can handle everything on your own. You have a thousand excuses for why you’ve been ignoring your problems and pretending you’re fine, but just because you can get through the day like this doesn’t mean that you should. You are allowed to get emotional. You are allowed to be upset. You are allowed to have worries and fears and complaints even if your life is good overall. Don’t stuff your emotions away. Let your truth out. It might help you feel better.
Libra, you are always putting on a cheery face because you don’t see the point in dwelling on your problems. But there’s a difference between genuinely forgiving someone and moving on from the past — and pretending that you’ve forgiven and have moved on. You’re allowed to be angry with others. You’re allowed to feel betrayed or disappointed. You don’t have to jump straight from hurt to healed. You’re allowed to take a while to get to a place where you can say you’re okay again. Don’t pressure yourself to get over it already. Your feelings should be felt, not ignored or swept aside. They’re just as important to your growth as your happy emotions are.
You don’t want to talk about how much you’ve been struggling because, honestly, you’re embarrassed. You wish you weren’t feeling this way, so you’ve been pretending that you don’t. Besides, it would be awkward to share your thoughts with others because you’re supposed to be the funny one. The one who makes everyone feel comfortable and relaxed. You don’t want to drag your friends into your drama. But that’s what friends are for. The people who genuinely care about you aren’t expecting you to put on an act. They want to be friends with the real you, not with a make-believe version of you that you think they want to see.
