Pisces women stand out as some of the most instinctive and naturally alluring individuals among all the zodiac signs. Thanks to our water sign traits (remember the fish symbol?), we have a flowing creativity that results in personality traits like kindness and openness — the perfect qualities for an ideal partner, don’t you think? Absolutely.
However, there are a few irritating habits to watch out for. If you’ve been involved in romantic relationships with a Pisces or happen to be one, the following realities might sound surprisingly familiar.
Here are 7 straightforward truths about dating, love, and relationships with a Pisces, the empathetic fish that ranks high among all zodiac signs.
1. She relies on her instincts and values her gut feelings the most.
If you attempt to deceive a Pisces, beware; she won’t hesitate to point it out. How does she detect falsehood? Simple — it’s a gut feeling she can’t ignore!
Trusting my gut once saved me during childhood. Sensing something off about riding in the car with my grandma, I had a meltdown in the office parking lot, convincing my mom to keep her company instead. She did. Less than five minutes later, my grandma’s car collided with a pole.
Lesson learned: Never underestimate Pisces’ instincts.
2. She’s quite emotional.
Seriously, her eyes are always on the verge of tears. (But that also means she’s quick to cry in empathy.) Honestly, it’s a bit of a bothersome condition. I find myself tearing up the moment someone nearby does. Even if I dislike you, I’ll still share your tears.
3. She tends to be a bit lazy.
It’s in her nature to stay in bed past noon on weekends, lost in daydreams. Nothing beats a cozy night on the couch with a bowl of pasta and a Netflix marathon. It’s way better than going to any club.
4. She’s incredibly nurturing.
Almost to a fault. It’s just her way of looking out for you. I feel like I’m playing “20 Questions” with my boyfriend every day. Got your keys? Phone? Wallet? Ate today? What do you fancy for dinner? I can’t help it. Nurturing is in my nature. (And yes, I annoy myself, too.)
5. If you don’t treat her right, she won’t hesitate to walk away.
The Pisces girl doesn’t dig negativity and has no fear of leaving behind a toxic relationship or friendship.
I’ve never understood why some folks stick around in drama-packed situations with partners or friends who constantly let them down or lack respect. Not the Pisces cool chick — we’re totally okay with saying goodbye. Alternatively, if we stick around? It’s a clear sign of our love for you.
6. She can be her own toughest critic.
Sometimes, self-pity overwhelms her. You might catch your Pisces sitting alone in a dim room, dwelling on what might have been or regretting words spoken, wishing for a better outcome.
She’s hard on herself, so a reminder of how amazing she is might be just what she needs. We try to be mindful of our moments of self-pity, but there are times when we just need to turn off the lights and enjoy some Alanis Morissette singing “You Oughta Know.”
7. She tends to get lost in her creative thoughts.
The result? She may seem a bit unapproachable. “I used to think you were kind of unfriendly until I actually talked to you.”
People often say that to me, but I promise, it’s not true. While we might seem distant, we’re actually quite kind and sweet if you can see beyond the sometimes-dark exterior. Gently pull your Pisces out of her imagination, and all eyes will be on you.
