Understanding Stubbornness and Its Causes

Stubbornness is a personality trait where individuals resist change or differing opinions. It often stems from a desire for control, fear of change, or deeply held beliefs. Recognizing the root causes can help manage stubborn behaviors and foster more flexible thinking.

Oh yes! If there is a thought in your mind that you think is right, even if the whole world think is wrong you will stick with it.
For example my best mate in primary school decided when she was 16 that a woman should get married to her first boyfriend. And when my first boyfriend broke up from me she stopped talking to me. She was only 19 when she decided that and until now that she is 31 she still believes this. It is insane but that doesn't change her mind.
Another example, I had a taurus housemate and she decided that the house was too warm to put the heater on. So in the middle of the winter and while there was snow outside and all the roads were closed she had kept the heater OFF for everyone in the house. NO matter how much I was telling her that I was freezing she was not changing her mind. Isn't THAT stubborn?

case one 🙂 she is 31 and still has not got a boyfriend ? wow ! .

case two🙂 she's just being cheap as well...!!!

I also asked my taurus friend if he was stubborn..and he said " well i didn't speak to my dad for 2 years so i guess i am stubborn !

maybe, i am not a typical taurus like that... but yes, if i want something... I WILL GO AND GET IT... ( except for love affairs) ..too stubborn...lol

Well these were extreme people haha! I don't know if she is married or just a girlfriend but they are together since they were 13-14 years old. I saw her facebook, I went and added her, we haven't spoken 10 years since my ex broke up from me and she cancelled my friend request.
The other one yeah she wanted to save up money so she was a complete bitch. She made up though at the end defending me to get back my deposit on the rent. I don't hold grudges but I wouldn't be her friend either.
Yeah you guys are stubborn but you are nice to have around.

WOW ! they must have strong fixed signs in their charts too !

I'm only stubborn when I know I am absolutely right...if there is any shade of grey then I will compromise.

If there's something I want I will go after it like a woman possessed and won't be moved from my mission.

So the stubborness only comes into play when things are important. As for the rest? I am cruisy as.

I'm stubborn at times. If i really don't want to do something, i wont do it, no matter what the consequences may be. When i'm involved in a debate, it's a case of "i'm right, you're wrong & there's nothing you can do about it" (bit of a Matilda quote there 😉 lol)

We like peace and will often compromise to calm to situation..and isolate from problems...

I feel that scorpios are worst when it comes to stubbornness ! They are control freaks when we are NOT so much...when we know we are right..we will push and push and push until people get the point....

where if scorpios know they are wrong..they will still push and push and push for the sake for it ....I don't know much about other fixed signs...?!

thoughts?

Yes. Even if I'm wrong. Even if there is proof that I'm wrong staring me in the face. Even if I've changed my mind halfway through an argument and realise just how wrong i am. Even if i now agree that your way would be better. I won't back down. I am the bull - horns and all 🙂
