4 Zodiac Signs Who Can’t Say “NO” To Others & Struggles To Set Boundaries
Some people just can’t say no – not because they’re weak, but because they care too much. Astrology shows us four signs that struggle most with setting boundaries. Here’s why they have trouble refusing others and how they can get better at it.
1. Pisces
Why they say yes too much:
- Feel others’ emotions deeply
- Hate conflict and want everyone happy
- Often forget their own needs
How it hurts them:
- Take on too much and burn out
- Get taken advantage of
- Feel stressed from always putting others first
When they struggle most:
- When friends need emotional support (even when tired)
- At work when asked to do extra tasks
- In relationships where they tolerate bad treatment
How to fix it:
- Remember: You can’t help others if you’re drained
- Practice saying “I need to think about it” first
- Start small by saying no to little things
2. Libra
Why they say yes too much:
- Hate arguments and want harmony
- Worry about what others think
- Struggle to make decisions that might upset people
How it hurts them:
- Feel exhausted from people-pleasing
- Stay in one-sided friendships
- Have trouble knowing what THEY really want
When they struggle most:
- When friends ask for favors (even when busy)
- Going to events they don’t enjoy
- Taking on extra work to avoid conflict
How to fix it:
- Accept you can’t make everyone happy
- Try saying “That doesn’t work for me”
- Put your needs on your to-do list too
3. Cancer
Why they say yes too much:
- Naturally want to nurture everyone
- Feel responsible for others’ happiness

How to fix it:

- Notice when you’re being treated unfairly
4. Sagittarius
Why they say yes too much:
- Love helping and trying new things
- Get excited and agree too quickly
- Hate disappointing people
How it hurts them:
- Overcommit and feel trapped
- Get frustrated with themselves
- Waste time on things they don’t enjoy
When they struggle most:
- Saying yes to events they don’t want to attend
- Volunteering for tasks out of obligation
- When friends ask for last-minute favors
How to fix it:
- Pause 5 seconds before answering requests
- Ask yourself “Do I REALLY want to do this?”
- Remember: Saying no makes your “yes” more valuable
How All These Signs Can Get Better at Saying No:
✓ “I can’t help with this, but good luck!”
✓ “Let me check my schedule and get back to you”
✓ Start with small no’s to build confidence
✓ Remember – setting boundaries helps relationships last longer
Final Thought:
Being kind doesn’t mean saying yes to everything. The most caring thing you can do is be honest about your limits. Your real friends will understand when you need to say no.
