Aries, these traits are what everyone dislikes about you

Enthusiastic, fiercely independent, and a trailblazer—these are things that everyone adores about you, Aries. Everyone can count on you to breathe life into an exciting idea because you’re an initiator, and without you, nothing would get started at all. However, just like everything else, there’s a fine line between taking charge and being completely overbearing, which many Arians are guilty of!

Here are some traits that people aren’t so fond of in you, Aries:

Too impulsive

Moderation is key to everything. Impulsivity has its time and place, as doing the unexpected can certainly spice up your life and help you make the most out of each day. Still, if you’re constantly dropping your responsibilities to chase your newest whim, people won’t be so eager to rely on you. Being a slave to your impulse typically results in unwise decisions, so you’ll want to think twice before calling in sick at work to go on a road trip!

Hot-headedness

Aries is ruled by Mars, the planet of desire, motivation, and energy. That means you have a shorter fuse than most people, though it typically fizzles out right away. Even so, that fire can quickly blow situations out of proportion and cause people to avoid you—no one wants to be around a ticking time bomb, after all! While anger is a normal emotion, being temperamental can get you in sticky situations, so be sure to check yourself before reacting.

Impatient

When you want something, you want it now, Aries! While that’s completely understandable, patience is a virtue that everyone needs to learn—and you are no exception. You’re always in a rush to get things done and enjoy your reward, but life moves at its own pace, whether you like it or not. Your impatience can make you hard to deal with, especially if your coworkers or friends prefer to move at a more leisurely tempo.

Domineering

You know how to get things done because of your unmatched drive and perseverance. Still, not everyone is as motivated as you because they have different priorities, and that can frustrate you. That makes you come off as domineering, which can torpedo into friction between your colleagues or friends. It won’t hurt to be a bit more considerate of those around you—don’t worry, you’ll still finish your objectives on time!
