Geminis are Misunderstood
There have been countless occasions where i can honestly say people have misunderstood me, perhaps most of the time! For us Geminis it takes us a while to open up to people and even longer to trust. At times, our lack of trust can get in the way of being open and free with the people we love. People often mistaken us for being two faced, indecisive, "wishy washy" you name it, but what people don't understand is that behind our two faced and indecisive, demeanor we just want to be understood and respected. We are not truly two faced we just have more than one personality. I know it sounds crazy and bi polar, but we have this sense of self that is unique. We are able to view one thing from multiple perspectives without even forcing it. This is a gift trust me. We can be witty and fun by day and deep and mysterious by night, it really just depends on our mood! You may get wild Gemini on Tuesday and by Wednesday wild Gemini has morphed into serious business mode. This is just who we are! We are not fake and phony we are just multiple people living in one body. I'm sure this explanation is not helping us sound any less crazy but i tried!
Geminis Appear Like They Don't Know What They Want
Once again this is not true! I am sure any Gemini reading this article can relate to people thinking that we don't know what we want in life. I am grown enough to admit that we do in fact have issues with settling, but, that is simply because we don't want to settle with what we don't want! This is the case with everything. The way a Gemini figures out what we want is through process of elimination. We will try a bunch of stuff and anything we don't like we scrap, it's really that simple. At times we can get caught up in having too many options, but we are bold enough to try everything at least once and then agree that certain things will never be explored again. We also will abandon something half way if it's not what we thought. I think I abandoned quite a few courses in my lifetime the moment i realized it wasn't for me. Once we go through the process to see what we really want, we only want to head in that direction and not waste time. We might change our mind few times along the way, but who doesn't?
Geminis Don't Stick Around in Relationships
How many times have I heard "You Geminis are just players." I digress, if a Gemini is being a "player" it's because something is lacking with the person their with. The rare Gemini might be a serial cheater but that is coming from some of their own issues internally. I'll admit, it is hard to fully keep a Gemini's attention for a long time, but the whole split personality thing makes it hard for us. When we are in business mode we may want a partner who's a go-getter that encourages and inspires us, and then when we feel like being a wild Gemini we want someone we can have fun with and do wild things together. If our partners can't satisfy both our personalities for the most part then we will feel like things are missing and be tempted to stray to satisfy that missing piece. We also like the feeling of meeting new people and making new friends but that doesn't mean we are looking to sleep with or be with someone else, it's really just a thrill and then we go back home madly in love with our partners. It really just depends. It takes a very special person to keep a Gemini in check, but special people are out there!
Geminis Have Multiple Talents
Most of the Geminis I know including myself are multi- talented people making it difficult at times to choose one career. Many of us are great communicators, teachers, actors, musicians, writers, entrepreneurs you name it. However, this makes choosing one path to take in life extremely difficult. Geminis do not like being placed in a box and told we can only be and do one thing. We are naturally free spirited and enjoy our freedom very much, but at times it can make life confusing. A lot of us do not fit into the box of norms in our society and it makes us feel stifled if we have to be what everyone else is. A lot of us may find ourselves trying to fit in where we don't belong, simply because we don't know where else to be. Geminis are most happy when we are able to use our talents for the greater good and make money out of it. If we are working a job just to pay the bills and none of our talents are being used we can easily slip into a depression. Happiness and freedom is very important to a Gemini. We usually do whatever it takes to get to that point whether it comes early or later on in life. The advice I give to my fellow Geminis is figure out what you don't like early, go after what you do like, and don't give up.
Overall, we Geminis are lovely people to be around, we are full of fun, we are ambitious, we can talk politics one minute and talk about fashion the next, we care about other people A LOT, we can be shy or outgoing depending on our mood, we are smart and witty, we are intuitive, full of ideas, understanding, private and prideful , but we really just want to be one thing, UNDERSTOOD. I hope this article helped just a little bit.
