I'm a Virgo, but I'm curious what other people's perception of this zodiac sign are and if they feel accurate to my experience. So, what is your impression of Virgos? In your opinion what traits do you associate with this sign?

Virgo here. We are total sweethearts, I promise, but we can come off cold and like know-it-alls. Virgos are not emotionally closed off, but they don't always do a good job of expressing their emotions. Since they're air signs they're very intellectual and motivated by interesting ideas and the pursuit of knowledge. They gravitate to people who are creative and intelligent. Virgos are innovative and solutions-oriented, they like to fix things and may spend more time/energy on figuring out a solution to your problem than just listening to you vent, which can maybe get annoying but their heart is in the right place!

Virgo is staid and careful and cautious. Virgo is a very what I call "user-friendly" sign: if it's practical, they'll do it. Otherwise, they're going to screw you over. It's a very cold sign. Virgo's nobody's favorite sign, sorry!

They tend to put on a facade in front of people outside of the house. But are disrespectful to his own family. Everyone thinks he's so nice... I laugh. If they only new his other side. Malicious, nasty, condescending ways.

Virgos like to think they know it all. They like to give advice, no matter how cringey. They are conscientious of cleanliness and hygiene. It is very hard to get a Virgo to open up, when they like someone they will stare at them from afar. They are shy and receptive, they like honesty, availability and cleanliness, and they love to pitch in to help.

Yeah, the stereotyle I always hear about Virgos is that they're clean, and in my personal expefrience that seems to be true, my virgo brother is super tidy and kind of a nut about making sure guests keep the house clean, take shoes off, ect. On the other hand, he's not cold or unemotional, he is actually really sweet and open about his feelings. Maybe this is sosmething to do with his moon sign or something, I'm not sure what it is and don't know too much about that

In my head, Virgos are like…very extra. I know the stereotype is that they’re detail-oriented and polite, but they can be super gossipy, too. I also know a few Virgos who are so detail-oriented that they’ll drive you insane. Like, just leave work early to come hang out! You don’t need to get everything on that report perfect. In fact, yeah, “perfectionist” is the word I’d use. That said, I’m super jealous of how Virgos tend to be really motivated. I feel like I could use some of that energy to be a better student. I’ve never met a lazy Virgo, you know?

I'm a scorpio but I've dated a virgo & have 3 virgo brothers. Virgos are easily hurt, like to appear stronger than they are, very judgemental, can dish it but doesn't like to take it. They're tight with money & giving to others without getting anything beneficial out of it practically kills them. They tend to focus on "small" things no one else noticed or cares about. They have a hard time being content or relaxing. They're skeptical of everyone! Regardless of intentions...they distrust most all. How am I doing so far? I know em well!

Positive traits exist in the ones I know as well, they're not bad people...just "annoying". They keep their spaces tidy, they hate disorder & they hate cleaning up after others. They clean ONLY for themselves! They're usually not lazy, and they like to pay bills on time as opposed to being late. Late notices bother them. Especially if the receive more than 1! They hate to revisit things or appear incompetent. They can be funny & have a good quirky scense of humor. They're not risk takers at all! If u invite them on a skydiving trip they'll go...but you'll be jumping by yourself! Lol..they rather watch you go down while they're sitting comfy on the plane thinking you're nuts as they gaze out the cabin window.

Hope this helps :)

My hubby is a Virgo. He won't do face to face conflicts and has been caught out lying. He is lovable but not in a huggy kissy nature likes cuddles on his terms. Yes he over thinks and never says sorry if proven wrong and is indecisive.
He can come across cold and judges a person on first meets and is critical of people who are ill or overweight.
So yes I think the description is quite right

Virgos are porn addicts...gaslighted, manipulative and liars..They destroy every holiday to see and thrive off of ur reaction.
The kids are just like him. They are complete babies. They seen him act like a child by throwing things, breaking stuff. It's really sad 😔. They would rather have an affair with their hand then, actually have sex with his wife. Be careful they are the devil in sheep's clothing. True colors are presented after the "I do".

Sometimes, a lot of times, virgos settle in relationships they're unhappy in and although they won't verbalize it, their actions will show it. It's unfair but they're such people pleasers and can be so loyal, a situation like yours can be very possible. He probably lost attraction to you long ago but felt a loyalty to you and stayed even though he was absolutely miserable. They don't realize they're hurting people more than they're helping them when they do this.

Their most noticible traits with every Virgo in my life and there are several, is that they are so disorganized but think they aren't. They have a wonderful quirky sense of humor and quick comebacks for everything. They are very caring and independent. You have to force your help on them, and also they can't let go of details and move on. I am a Capricorn.

Virgos are highly intuitive. They are not confrontational and will typically remain quiet and respectful if they're onto you. Whatever you think they didn't know or hear, trust me. They know. They'll always get the last laugh (without undue confrontation).

Virgo's don't often like physical contact so don't push them to be physical or touchy-feely. However, it is okay once in a while. Just go slow.

Be persistent and compliment her constantly. She is her own worst critic so shower her with compliments you actually believe that are based on evidence. She scrutinizes even your compliments! But she also listens and remembers in detail so all those things that you notice about will pay dividends, bringing the two of you closer, especially as she can take time to open up.

Virgos also need alone time. Don't be so aggressive toward Virgos or you will seem desperate, turn off. Virgos need consistency. The Virgo woman wants and need to be in love because she have so much love to give; that's why she's 100% faithful in a relationship.
