Being oblivious

freakypumpkin:

There are a lot of posts joking about how Alec doesn’t get Magnus’ advances and how he still finds him ‘cryptic’ after Magnus has stated clear interest in him, in the eyes of the audience at least. 
And this is not meant as judgement for those jokes. I like them as well, I think Alec being oblivious to things like innuendos or flirting is a very charming part of his character.

But with all the joking aside, I’d like to bring up the thought that sometimes people want others to be clear with them. That sometimes hints, while maybe clear to a third party, are not as clear or clear enough to the person they are directed at. And maybe sometimes while being clear to said person, said person does want it to be spelled out for them, might even need it to believe it.

People are being flirted with as a joke or played with otherwise. 

So, it can be very important to people with low self-esteem in relationship-matters to have things spelled out for them. They need a clear message more than hints to go on because with hints there’s always the option for the one making them, to have a backdoor, to tell them that they ‘misinterpreted things’. 
That’s a very scary situation. 
And it can be almost a healing experience to have somebody tell you upfront that they like you without treating you as an idiot for not ‘getting the hints’. For some people it might even go as far that they ignore mere hints because they think as long as they are just hints, the other person isn’t seriously interested. 

So, I don’t know. The thought just came back to me with seeing the posts about Alec (and again, it’s not a judgement of those, they just acted as an reminder). 

It’s not specifically about Alec either, it’s just a matter that’s very important to me and often at the back of my mind when it comes to that character. 

What People Don’t Normally Notice About the Signs

forgottenastrology:

Aries: You are very caring and loving. You know what to say to make people smile when they’re in a bad mood. You can be very self-destructive, though not many people know that about you. When you get depressed, you tend to shut off all emotions (good or bad). I would say you’re the most loving sign.

 Taurus: You absolutely hate being weak and vulnerable. But you have to let your guard down some time. You’re also very hypocritical and purposely cause problems for yourself. But on the bright side, if anyone is in need for an awakening or advice you should be the first person they go to. I would say you’re the most opinionated.

Gemini: You can surprisingly be very caring. Though you don’t like to let people know you care. You go to other people to see how a person is doing, you never go to that person to see. Lot’s of people think you’re an asshole, but honestly I think you do that to guard yourself. I would say you’re the most emotional.

Cancer: You don’t really fit in with others. Everyone always say how mature and motherly Cancers are. But I don’t know how wrong they could be. You’re a kid at heart despite how old you are. There’s just something so youthful about your aura. I would say you’re the most fun loving and kid-like sign.

Leo: Despite a huge ego, you are probably the most caring out of any of the zodiac. No matter what, you always are there for someone regardless if you’re struggling with someone. Some people may not know that even though you are very extroverted, you have many characteristics of an introvert. 

Virgo: You help so many people. Extremely generous with almost everyone. But you tend to run away and avoid your problems instead of facing them. You never give anytime for yourself. Make time for yourself. Pamper yourself just for the hell of it. I don’t know just do something for yourself. You’re probably the most selfless out of the zodiac.

Libra: You’re attention span is very short. Metaphorically, you’d be playing with one object then drop to out of no where because you see a newer object. Also, you tend to do very dangerous things just for the adrenaline rush/the good feeling. I would have to say you’re the most reckless sign.

Scorpio: You can easily cut people off if you find one thing you don’t like about that person. You don’t allow other to read your emotions, you see that as a sign of weakness. You are a power hungry person and will do absolutely anything to achieve what you want. You are the most cold hearted out of the signs.

Sagittarius: When you aren’t mad over petty stuff, you’re pretty chill. You’re very ambitious and motivated to get you where you want to be. Not to mention, when a family member or friend is feeling down you know how to comfort them. Sagittarius would be the most comforting/welcoming of the zodiac.

Capricorn: You like to act so emotionless all the time. You plan out everything for your future. I believe it’s because you’re scared of the unknown. If something out of the blue happened you would be a wreck on the inside. Yet you’re wise beyond your years. You’re so philosophical and intelligent. I would have to say you’re the wisest of the zodiac.

Aquarius: You like to plan out every detail to every plan to make sure you won’t get blamed for anything. You’re extremely sneaky and cunning. You’ll figure stuff out about people and use it against them. You’re the most manipulative of the zodiac.

Pisces: You’re an adorable little fucker and you use that to your advantage sometimes. You like to hurt someone then tell that person they’re not hurting. Even though you can be very sweet, you can be very cruel for no reason. You stab someone in the back then act like you’re the one who was bleeding. You’re the most victimizing sign.

******NOTE: I AM DOING THIS BASED OFF MY OBSERVATION SKILLS. I DID THE SCORPIO ONE BASED OFF ME SINCE I’M A SCORPIO. I’M SORRY IF YOU DON’T LIKE IT. I JUST WANTED TO POINT OUT STUFF NO ONE ELSE POINTS OUT.
