If I had to choose one zodiac sign that seems to have the worst luck when it comes to love, it would undoubtedly be Gemini. And let me explain why.
Geminis seem to have developed a rather negative reputation for some reason. People often label them as two-faced individuals, even though they are simply twins (at least when it comes to Ancient astrology) and not two separate people within one.
Plus, being an air sign, Gemini requires an outlet for their energy, such as communication or engaging in adrenaline-pumping activities. Otherwise, they may find themselves sinking into a state of depression. Similar to how a pressure cooker requires the release of steam, Geminis have a need to unleash the energy that has built up within them. This once again creates the impression that they are highly unpredictable or unstable in their emotions.
Geminis are often misunderstood and have an undeservedly negative reputation, while in reality, they are genuinely kind, empathetic individuals with a great deal of wisdom and intelligence. So, let’s dive straight into five harsh realities that explain why Geminis are unlucky in love.
Big-Time Overthinkers
Let’s start with the most obvious one. Geminis are big-time thinkers, and when we say it, we truly mean it. Their minds are constantly active, which can be both beneficial and overwhelming for them.
When Gemini develops feelings for someone, they tend to overanalyze and overthink everything. This overthinking can lead to a loss of interest in the other person or a belief that they are not deserving, causing them to withdraw emotionally.
When it comes to communication, Gemini dedicates a significant amount of time to crafting a message that Aries or Sagittarius would effortlessly write in a matter of minutes. It is their tendency to overthink that hinders their success in love.
I happen to know someone who has this interesting habit of composing her messages using iPhone notes before sending an actual Instagram message. Surprisingly, it takes her a whopping four hours to carefully craft and finally hit the send button.
The good news is that overthinking is not a fixed belief that governs their entire life; rather, it is a challenge that determined Geminis can overcome.
They Are NOT Flirtatious
Gemini is inherently a sign that values communication, as it is ruled by the planet Mercury. You might perceive the Gemini you know as more introverted, and that’s completely valid. Communication encompasses more than just talking – it also includes listening, writing, and being in the presence of others.
As experts in communication, they possess a deep understanding of which words to choose and when to listen or speak. This can occasionally give off a flirtatious vibe, although their intention is solely to engage in conversation and not to flirt.
And, let’s face it, no one enjoys it when someone we’re fond of shows interest in others (even if they’re not actually flirting). Geminis seem to have a particularly tough time with this and are unfairly penalized for something they aren’t even guilty of. So, if you happen to know a Gemini, perhaps it’s time to dial down the suspicion a bit.
They Hate Stereotypes
Stereotypes? Not really Gemini’s thing. They’re not opposed to doing the same job or waking up next to the same person every day. What they’re truly against is living a predictable life without any excitement, thrill, or enthusiasm. And while this characteristic is not exclusive to Geminis, it is one of the factors that can lead to their unluckiness in romantic relationships.
Geminis thrive on excitement, crave new experiences and adventures, and enjoy exploring different cuisines, meeting new individuals, and traveling. They yearn for a sense of purpose in their lives. However, finding a partner who can fulfill these desires can often feel like an extraordinary occurrence.
The Live In The Here And Now
You’re probably familiar with the famous quote, “You have to live in the present moment to truly appreciate life.” Well, that’s precisely what Geminis strongly relate to.
They aren’t fans of being asked about their future plans or where they envision themselves in a couple of years. Geminis prefer to embrace the present and make the most of life because they understand that tomorrow is uncertain, and they’re not concerned about what the next year holds.
Unfortunately, not everyone acknowledges this fact, particularly in relationships, where individuals often seek a certain level of assurance that Gemini may not consistently offer due to their “I want to live in the here and now” attitude.
Common Misconceptions
When you mention Gemini, many of us immediately imagine two individuals in one body or perhaps someone pretending to be someone else. Gemini is often unfairly judged and stereotyped more than any other zodiac sign, and honestly, it is quite sad.
The good news is that our sun sign only represents a small part of who we are, but unfortunately, there are still individuals who hold biased views and believe that Geminis are not suitable for romantic partnerships.
Geminis frequently face this misconception that they are someone wearing a mask or incapable of loving someone, when in reality, all they truly desire is genuine love.
Summary
Generally, Geminis are unlucky in love because of misconceptions, overthinking, and their naturally charming demeanor, which may be mistaken for flirting when it’s not. They are also someone who prioritizes living in the present, recognizing the uncertainty of the future. Some may perceive this as a lack of responsibility or even instability.
I’ve had the pleasure of knowing many Geminis, and without fail, they have all been remarkably polite and kind individuals. It truly saddens me to see how many stereotypes and assumptions are made about them. Perhaps it’s time we focus on the content of the book rather than forming judgments based on the cover, isn’t it?
