The Secret Reason Your (Pretend) Friend Is Jealous Of You Based On Your Zodiac Sign

Aries

(March 21st to April 19th)

Your pretend friend is jealous of you because youโ€™re fearless. Your confidence allows you to do things your friend wouldnโ€™t ever try, and it slightly infuriates them. They wish they could walk into a room like you do. For you, itโ€™s nothing. Confidence and assurance is just another part of who you are.

Taurus

(April 20th to May 21st)

Your pretend friend is jealous of you because youโ€™re responsible. You always know the right thing to do and when, and everyone knows they can depend on you for basically anything. Your friend wishes they had an ounce of your responsibility, they think you have it all together, and itโ€™s because most of the time, you do, or youโ€™re at least really good at pretending like you do.

Gemini

(May 22nd to June 21st)


Your pretend friend is jealous of you because youโ€™re really good with people. Youโ€™re social and relatable, and people like you. Youโ€™re fun to be around and your friend enjoys that, but they also wish they were more like you in that way. Your friend wants to be as likable as you are.

Cancer

(June 22nd to July 22nd)

Your pretend friend is jealous of you because youโ€™re so sensitive and in tune to peopleโ€™s feelings. Youโ€™re compassionate and kind, and you donโ€™t get annoyed when people vent to you. Emotions donโ€™t scare you and you react to them like you react to anything else, calmly and collectedly.

Leo

(July 23rd to August 22nd)

Your pretend friend is jealous of you because you make your dreams reality. You have your dream job or relationship or both, and your friend doesnโ€™t understand how you make it all happen. You work hard, and you donโ€™t stop until you obtain the thing youโ€™re after, thatโ€™s how. You work for everything you want, you donโ€™t expect it to just magically happen for you.

Virgo

(August 23rd to September 22nd)

Your pretend friend is jealous of you because you know how to solve every problem and you give the best advice only when itโ€™s needed. People look to you for answers and it seems like you always have them. You help because you want to help, and because the people you help you genuinely care about and you hope theyโ€™d do the same for you.

Libra

(September 23rd to October 22nd)

Your pretend friend is jealous of you because youโ€™re always so at peace. Your life is completely balanced, and you donโ€™t let the little things stress you out. You live your life with a sense of calm that most donโ€™t, and youโ€™re never overwhelmed by the things you canโ€™t control.

Scorpio

(October 23rd to November 22nd)

Your pretend friend is jealous of you because you have the ability to say it like it is. You donโ€™t sugar coat or phrase things a certain way to tip toe around everyoneโ€™s feelings. You are confident enough to be honest, and to handle peopleโ€™s reactions afterwards. Youโ€™re not trying to be mean or hurtful, youโ€™re just stating the truth that will eventually help people anyway.

Sagittarius

(November 23rd to December 21st)

Your pretend friend is jealous of you because you donโ€™t let what people think of you, keep you from living your life the way you want to live it. If you want to travel the world youโ€™re going to do it, and if you want to do it alone, youโ€™ll do that too. You donโ€™t let other peopleโ€™s expectations limit you, you set your own expectations and youโ€™re not devastated when life takes a different course.

Capricorn

(December 22nd to January 20th)

Your pretend friend is jealous of you because you always do the reasonable thing, and your life progresses responsibly because of it. Youโ€™re organized and goal-oriented, and when you set your mind to something you usually make it happen. Youโ€™re not afraid or hard work, and you actually enjoy it. Youโ€™re just an overall determined person.

Aquarius

(January 21st to February 18th)

Your pretend friend is jealous of you because youโ€™re really smart. You love to engage in intellectual conversations, and you actually care about whatโ€™s going on in the world. Youโ€™re deep and philosophical, and when you talk to people they can almost smell your intelligence before you even speak. Youโ€™ve got an active brain and youโ€™re not afraid to use it.

Pisces

(February 19th to March 20th)

Your pretend friend is jealous of you because youโ€™re not afraid of self-expression. Youโ€™re creative and talented, and you donโ€™t ever question yourself when it comes to art or creative expression. Self-doubt isnโ€™t a behavior you practice or even understand. Youโ€™re open to trying new things, and you always have a good attitude about it even if you fail at them. Youโ€™re not afraid to be who you are, and if you donโ€™t know who you are, youโ€™re fearless in figuring it out. [tc-mark]
