The Zodiac Signs Most Likely To Annoy You

While every zodiac sign has a unique set of excellent traits, none are perfect. Thus, in addition to each sign's roster of positive characteristics are some not-so-great traits. For instance, some immature zodiac signs have a lot of growing up to do, while some are most likely to be narcissists. Furthermore, a few zodiac signs get obsessed too easily, and some are most likely to be cheaters. And then some are just, well, annoying.

Being annoying isn't as specific as being obsessive or a cheater — it's more of a blanket term to describe someone who does or says anything that aggravates other people. Some examples of annoying actions include texting in the middle of a face-to-face conversation, subtly showing off, speaking during the film at a movie theater, and blasting music too loud, per BestLife. Chances are, everyone does something annoying occasionally, but some zodiac signs tend to be more annoying than others.

Clingy Cancers

Clinginess can be annoying in romantic relationships, friendships, roommate or colleague dynamics, and families, and Cancers can be annoyingly clingy. "Cancers are notoriously clingy. Much like their sign, the crab, they hang on for dear life," Anna Kovach, a professional astrologer, told BestLife. So, did you have that cliché ex who would text you heart emojis every five minutes, even when you were at work? Or that roommate who refuses to accept that they're not your only friend? It's safe to guess that these overly clingy people were probably Cancers.

Sometimes, Cancer clinginess can lead to being controlling, which can make this sign even more annoying. According to Co-Star, Cancers have birthdays between June 21 and July 22 and often desire to be in control of situations because a lack of control can cause them discomfort — and sometimes Cancers care a little too much about their loved ones, to the point where it doesn't seem healthy. Therefore, a Cancer might try to control their partner or best friend's life and genuinely believe that doing so is truly going to help them. So, that clingy, controlling attitude could end up pushing people away.

Extremely emotional Pisces

Born between February 19 and March 20, Pisces is one of the most annoying zodiac signs because they're so emotional (via YourTango). Sure, they're empathetic, but sometimes they forget that not everyone shares that empathy and doesn't want to deal with such intense emotions. For example, Pisces are often those people who have to cry at every movie when no one else is crying, whine about something a former friend said to them, or go on for hours about how their heart broke after their significant other dumped them. Being around such emotional people can get annoying after a while, especially if you live with them or see them every day.

Furthermore, Pisces don't forgive easily due to their sensitive personalities, and their angsty moodiness can get on people's nerves, per PrepScholar. So, be careful making a joke around a Pisces because they might take it super personally and get upset. And if they feel down, expect them not to hide their sadness — they'll likely be dramatic about how they had a terrible, awful day, and you'll probably have to hear about it all night for the next week and a half.

Success-obsessed Capricorn

There's no denying that Capricorns have incredible work ethics, but sometimes they can take it too far. According to Pinkvilla, Capricorns' obsession with a job done well and a job done fast can get on many people's nerves. So, people belonging to this success-hungry sign might take all the fun out of group work or team dynamics by obsessing over making sure that everyone is working as hard as they can as quickly as they can. And in a group of friends, a Capricorn might choose an idea that seems the most practical rather than the most fun and aggravate the rest of the group in doing so.

Born between December 21 and January 20, Capricorns are relentlessly driven and often plan everything out ahead (via Vice). So, people who prefer to live life more spontaneously will likely find Capricorns to be the most annoying people in the world. After all, what would be more frustrating to a more spontaneous sign than being around a Capricorn who has the next six months of their lives written out in their planner? Thus, that methodical, logic-based approach to life can end up pushing people away due to appearing too rigid and uptight.

Notorious Gemini

We all know that Geminis have an unpleasant reputation, and as unfair as that infamy may be, there's no doubt that this sign has some frustrating qualities. According to Astrofame, Geminis have two completely different sides to their personalities, making it nearly impossible to guess which side you're going to encounter at any moment. For example, on Monday, your Gemini friend might be super bubbly, extraverted, and fun to be around, and then surprisingly closed-off, reserved, and quiet on Tuesday. Or maybe your Gemini crush will make some spontaneous Saturday night plans with you on Friday, only to bail and give no real reason on Saturday morning. People belonging to the Gemini sign have birthdays from May 21 to June 21, and two twins represent a Gemini sign, signifying the contrasting sides of this sign's personalities, per Almanac.

The notorious Gemini attitude is frequently referenced in pop culture. For example, in the song "Him & I" by G-Easy and Halsey, G-Easy sang, "Only one who gets me, I'm a crazy f****n' Gemini," implying that many people don't understand the wild Gemini personality. No, most Geminis don't deserve all the hate, but yes, this sign can be a bit annoying.

Stubborn Aquarius

People belonging to the Aquarius sign have an excellent ability to do whatever they want and be 100% themselves without a care in the world, but sometimes that IDGAF attitude can be a little too much. "Even though Aquarians are kind and charitable, they love to do things their own way — and if others find it annoying, well that's just a price they're willing to pay," Inbaal Honigman, a celebrity psychic and astrologer, told BestLife. So, you can expect an Aquarius to present the opposite opinion from the rest of the crowd just for the sake of making a bold statement. Sure, many times, Aquarius genuinely believes in what they're saying, but sometimes they might try to be different just to be different, which can be offputting.

According to Co-Star, people belonging to the Aquarius sign are born between January 19 and February 18 and typically live life with an outcast mentality. Intentionally acting so offbeat can come off as desperate for attention and will likely irritate others, making Aquarius one of the most annoying zodiac signs.

Judgy Virgos

Virgos are famously smart and analytical — and critical; Virgos are one of the most disliked zodiac signs because they can be so harsh when giving their feedback and opinions (via Astrofame). Hearing such rude remarks is annoying because, at the end of the day, it's just never enjoyable to be around someone who's being mean to you. While Virgos aren't usually intentionally insulting with their words, they sometimes say things that they might not realize are rude but can still hurt feelings and even lower people's self-esteem and confidence. For instance, you might show your Virgo roommate your new outfit, only for them to say that it looks ugly and think that they're helping you in saying that. Or, you might be excited to tell your Virgo friends all about your new job, only for them to make hurtful comments about how they make so much more money than you.

With birthdays between August 23 and September 22, Virgos strive for perfection no matter what, per YourTango, even if that means bossing people around and brutally criticizing other people's work. That intense desire to be perfect at everything can take the fun out of various situations and seriously annoy friends and co-workers.
