23 yr old Cancerian with Aquarius moon and Capricorn rising?

Question

I've had a difficult childhood - both at home and school. Was extremely shy and introverted, had very few friends, and the few that I had I was always insecure, frustrated and mean with.

I've evolved as a person. I've learnt how to smile and laugh (believe me, this took practice), and i'm more reasonable in my expectations of people.

But - i'm still unpopular in college - i'm just always soooo misunderstood! People consider me slimy, mean, bit**y - even when I was trying to do and be good.

And I have terrible luck with men. I cheated on my first (and only) boyfriend when I was drunk at a party. Went through serious heartache when he understandably dumped me.

I haven't been able to find a guy and it's been one year. I meet a lot of men, but they only seem to want to get into my pants without wanting a serious relationship.

I always feel like i'm being punished for something i've done. But other people around me get away with so much, while I keep suffering even after I've genuinely tried to do good.

The long-winded question is that do you have any recommendations on something I can do to change myself and/or my circumstances?

Answer 1

Nothing in your life has anything to do with your "signs". That's all rubbish.

You and you alone are in charge of your direction, your relationships, everything.

I would suggest seeing a counselor about your feelings. They can help you realize why YOU feel the way you do about certain aspects of your life. They can also help you recognize bad patterns and give you advice on how to fix them.

I have been seeing a counselor for sometime now about some issues in my life and it has help tremendously. I have developed new ways of thinking about things that used to depress me and have overcome what I used to think were impossible hurdles.

I am sure your school offers free counseling to its students. Go give them a call.
