Here's how to avoid pissing off every sign in the zodiac
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
Don't creep up from behind to scare them.
Unless you want a swift kick in the junk, just don't do it. Taurus tends to be tightly wound and gets lost in their own thoughts, which makes them easily startled. While it may seem like fun and games, this tough bull has a fast reaction to fear and it doesn't involve crouching in the corner. This badass sign will respond to any threat, whether real or imagined, with stealthy (painful) ninja moves.

Gemini
May 21 – June 20
Don't exclude them from the group.
Gemini thrives on social interaction, and being left out is the stuff of their nightmares. Even if this chatty twin sign is working your last nerve with their constant need to talk about themselves, don't make the mistake of turning your back and icing them out. They will feel bitterly hurt and are likely to hurl insults or tell your secrets to others as retribution.

Cancer
June 21 – July 22
Don't criticize them.
Cancer may appear to have a tough shell, but inside they are sensitive and easily hurt. If you comment on their flaws, especially in anger, they're likely to put their wall up and consider you a threat to their well-being. Once you point out their mistakes, you're likely to lose any real closeness you may have had with them. If they're doing something that truly bothers you, try to begin the conversation with what you like about them before mentioning what needs work.

Leo
July 23 – August 22
Don't boss them around.
Leo IS the leader of the pack, and they know it. This alpha sign will not respond well to anyone wagging their finger in their face, trying to force them to do something. If you start barking orders at a Leo, expect to be met with eye rolls followed by outright rebellion. The best way to get a Leo to do what you need is to ask and offer them a chance to give their own input. As long as you know their participation is at-will, they're less likely to snap back.

Virgo
August 23 – September 22
Don't call them out on their BS.
Virgo is the most likely in the zodiac to fib about themselves due to their inherent low self-esteem. This sensitive sign needs unconditional support, even when everyone in the room knows they're full of it. If you make the mistake of poking holes in their stories, they're likely to respond with anger. While this sign isn't inherently mean, their vindictive side is well-developed and should be avoided at all costs.

Libra
September 23 – October 22
Don't be unfaithful.
Whether you're in a relationship with a Libra or just friends, any perceived infidelity is a total and complete deal-breaker to this sign of justice. Even if it's a best friend hinting at cheating on their spouse, Libra will cut all ties due to their near-invincible moral compass. This sign believes a great deal in honesty, especially in relationships, and will distance themselves from anyone who prioritizes lust over commitment.
