										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="1-leo-sagittarius">1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Leo + Sagittarius</h2>



<p>These two have a lot of fun together and don’t hesitate to discuss the hard stuff. They are each other’s biggest cheerleaders and ultimate source of support. Though ego may sometimes get in the way, they have each other’s backs. They&#8217;re both fire signs and will always want to put in the extra effort to make the other feel loved.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="2-aries-libra">2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Aries + Libra</h2>



<p>Aries and Libra are best friends until the end. Though they won’t ever agree on the same things, their friendship is what takes them far. They’re playful yet serious and often feel safe to be themselves. They share countless inside jokes, embarrassing stories they rarely tell a soul and a love rooted in trust and reciprocity.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="3-virgo-pisces">3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Virgo + Pisces</h2>



<p>Pisces is one of Virgo’s true loves. Though they are complete opposites in everything, their foundation is what usually sets them up for success. Rooted in patience and gentleness, these two can resolve conflict with kindness and compassion. They love each other well and can easily provide for the other emotionally.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="4-cancer-scorpio">4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cancer + Scorpio</h2>



<p>Cancer and Scorpio are each other’s safe place and emotional backbone. Scorpios don’t trust easily, but Cancer is one of the small few that they can instantly feel safe around. Together, they’re not afraid to tackle the hard stuff and can usually tell when one is upset. Vulnerability comes easy to these two, making their connection the deepest they’ll ever have.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="5-capricorn-taurus">5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Capricorn + Taurus&nbsp;</h2>



<p>These two will always be obsessed with each other. They admire the other’s drive to succeed and to live as stably as possible. Both want similar things out of life and love being around someone who can push them towards that. Mostly introverts and homebodies, these two have the most romantic stay-at-home dates and host the best dinner parties with close friends and family.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="6-aquarius-gemini">6.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Aquarius + Gemini</h2>



<p>Aquarius and Gemini are friends who didn’t expect to fall in love. Both free-spirited and independent thinkers, they’re there for each other often and can make the other smile even when they don’t want to. Straight out of a rom-com, you want to be around their love. These two are friendly and fun and will not hesitate to crack a joke every five minutes.</p>

<p>Her dad marked the day with an Instagram post that opened, &#8220;A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR AMAZING SCARLET! …. We love you so much!&#8221; It paired a throwback of him cradling her as a toddler with a fresh shot of the two of them on the set of Tulsa King, which wrapped Season 4 production earlier this year. He rounded it out with a photo of Scarlet and her mom, Jennifer Flavin.</p>



<p>Scarlet is the youngest of Stallone&#8217;s five kids. He had two sons with first wife Sasha Czack: Sage Moonblood Stallone, who acted with him in Rocky V and Daylight before dying of heart disease in 2012 at 36, and Seargeoh, born in 1979 and diagnosed with autism at 3, who has lived privately out of the spotlight. With Jennifer he has three daughters, Sophia (born 1996), Sistine (born 1998), and Scarlet. All five names start with S.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" height="1173" width="1024" src="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/MEGA482670_029_7b1ce0.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1201500" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" srcset="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/MEGA482670_029_7b1ce0.jpg 3170w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/MEGA482670_029_7b1ce0.jpg?resize=384,440 384w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/MEGA482670_029_7b1ce0.jpg?resize=640,733 640w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/MEGA482670_029_7b1ce0.jpg?resize=768,879 768w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/MEGA482670_029_7b1ce0.jpg?resize=1024,1173 1024w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/MEGA482670_029_7b1ce0.jpg?resize=1341,1536 1341w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/MEGA482670_029_7b1ce0.jpg?resize=1788,2048 1788w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/MEGA482670_029_7b1ce0.jpg?resize=1140,1305 1140w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/MEGA482670_029_7b1ce0.jpg?resize=1536,1759 1536w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/MEGA482670_029_7b1ce0.jpg?resize=2048,2345 2048w" /></figure>



<p>It&#8217;s a full-circle moment. Sylvester and Jennifer married on May 17, 1997 in a small ceremony at The Dorchester Hotel in London, and they just celebrated their 29th anniversary back in London this month.</p>



<p>Scarlet has been building her acting career right alongside him, playing Spencer on Tulsa King. The role started as a college-student barista at Triangle Coffee Roasters, evolved into horse caretaker at Fennario Ranch, and has now turned her into a &#8220;mini businesswoman&#8221; and bartender at the Bred-2-Buck helping Dwight&#8217;s crew. She researched the part by visiting real Tulsa coffee shops, and she&#8217;s said filming the show &#8220;completely changed&#8221; her relationship with her dad for the better. Sly has admitted on set, &#8220;I&#8217;m starting to learn from her. She&#8217;s so good.&#8221;</p>

<p>Stallone is 79 and turns 80 on July 6. On The Family Stallone he traced the physical toll back to one moment: &#8220;I did stupid stuff. I was directing Expendables and, like an idiot, I&#8217;m doing take 10… and I remember one slam, and I could actually feel one bang. After that film, it was never physically the same.&#8221; Years and several back surgeries later, when a reporter on the Kennedy Center Honors red carpet brought up the number, his answer was three words: &#8220;It adds up.&#8221;</p>



<p>That visible reality, plus the cane he was using in the anniversary photos, has fueled sensational online rumors and clickbait headlines claiming everything from new cancers to him being &#8220;on his last legs.&#8221; Most of it recycles old info or exaggerates the very real wear-and-tear from a lifetime of doing his own stunts, and nothing new has been officially confirmed by Stallone or his team.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[Just because you’re always called clingy doesn’t mean it’s true. Some people are uncomfortable around authentic humans. Some people aren’t going to understand your soft heart.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>Just because you’re always called clingy doesn’t mean it’s true. Some people are uncomfortable around authentic humans. Some people aren’t going to understand your soft heart. If you are born under one of the signs below, you’ve probably been called clingy more than once, but don’t worry because you are not alone.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="may">May</h2>



<p>People consider you clingy because you value your friendships and relationships. Once you grow attached to someone, you want to spend every second of your day with them. You aren’t going to walk away from someone who makes you happy. You aren’t going to deprive yourself of something you really want. You would rather tell the truth and admit what’s on your mind. If you want to spend time with a certain person, you’re going to tell them. You’re going to be honest and wear your heart on your sleeve. You aren’t going to waste time playing hard to get because you’re too authentic.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="july">July</h2>



<p>You are a fixer at heart. When someone is in trouble, you try your best to help them out of their unfortunate situation. You aren’t going to turn your back when someone needs you. Unfortunately, this can come across as clingy to people who aren’t used to your unconditional kindness. You aren’t asking for anything in return. Your heart is simply too big to watch someone suffer. You’re protective of the people you care about. You want to do anything within your power to keep them healthy and happy. Sometimes, that means crossing boundaries. But you always believe you’re doing the right thing. Your intentions are always pure.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="september">September</h2>



<p>You’re not the most romantic person in the world. You don’t give your heart to just anyone, so when you find someone special, you won’t want to let go. You’ll be there for them whenever they need you. And you’ll try your hardest to make their life easier. Unfortunately, you always think you’re right, so you might give them some unsolicited advice. You might tag along to help them without an invite. They might feel overwhelmed by how much effort you’re putting into the relationship – but you’re only trying to help. You’re trying to be there for them in the way you wish someone was there for you. You genuinely think you’re doing them a favor.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="october">October</h2>



<p>You will call to check in on your loved ones whenever they’re going through a hard time. You will send care baskets and cards to remind friends they’re on your mind. You will make it clear that you care about the people in your world that you hold dear. Unfortunately, not everyone will be receptive to your kindness. Some people will assume you’re clingy because they’re not used to having someone around who genuinely cares, who pays attention when they speak, who admits their emotions openly. Some people won’t be able to accept your thoughtfulness because they’ll be wondering whether it’s some sort of trick or a trap. They’ll assume you’re too good to be true.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="is-style-introduction">Surrendering fear reveals God’s unwavering hand. In step with Karin Hadadan’s reflection, Rebecca Simon’s <em><strong><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM">Finding God Every Day</a></strong></em> transforms daily trials into moments of grace. Let this devotion speak to you today and see how God moves even in your weakness.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.</p>
<cite>Isaiah 41:10</cite></blockquote>



<p>Each of us carry fears and anxieties—a heaviness in our chest, a dark cloud over our mind, or a weight upon our shoulders. In moments of uncertainty, we find ourselves overwhelmed, desperately trying to muster strength to handle everything alone. Our natural inclination is to face these challenges by ourselves; to turn away from God and proceed without support. But true relief comes only when we surrender our emotional burdens to Him.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized"><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" height="1280" width="1024" src="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Rebecca_Simon_Book_Meme_Let_Go_TrustGod_GAM2.jpg?w=850" alt="" class="wp-image-1163742" style="width:516px;height:auto" sizes="auto, (max-width: 516px) 100vw, 516px" srcset="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Rebecca_Simon_Book_Meme_Let_Go_TrustGod_GAM2.jpg 1080w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Rebecca_Simon_Book_Meme_Let_Go_TrustGod_GAM2.jpg?resize=384,480 384w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Rebecca_Simon_Book_Meme_Let_Go_TrustGod_GAM2.jpg?resize=640,800 640w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Rebecca_Simon_Book_Meme_Let_Go_TrustGod_GAM2.jpg?resize=768,960 768w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Rebecca_Simon_Book_Meme_Let_Go_TrustGod_GAM2.jpg?resize=1024,1280 1024w" /></a><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Lean on God’s power in every moment. <strong><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM">Find strength within these pages.</a></strong></figcaption></figure>



<p>Because even in our most anxious times, God’s divine presence remains unwavering. We receive not just comfort, but dynamic support. God promises to counter our negative emotions through four powerful assurances: His abiding presence with us, His personal relationship to us, His strength working through us, and His unwavering support beneath us. </p>



<p>His ‘righteous right hand’ symbolizes His power, authority, and deep faithfulness, demonstrating His intimate love and care for both our emotional and practical needs. When we lean on God during difficult times, we hear His gentle reassurance: ‘Why worry, when I am next to you, leading the way?’</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="7-libra">7.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Libra</h2>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="12-pisces">12.&nbsp;Pisces</h2>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="pisces">Pisces</h2>



<p>As the kindest one in the zodiac, it&#8217;s no surprise that Pisces would naturally gravitate towards people with as much of a pure heart. They like people who are sensitive to other people&#8217;s needs and who often put themselves in others&#8217; shoes. So, holding the door for someone or caring for a younger sibling will attract the water sign even more. It&#8217;s also a plus if you love kids and are kind to animals.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="cancer">Cancer</h2>



<p>Cancers are attracted to empathetic people because it shows a person&#8217;s ability to be vulnerable. That will give the water sign reassurance of a budding connection and solidify the emotional security they desire. They&#8217;re attracted to those who can let their walls down and care deeply about those closest to them. It&#8217;s also a plus if you cry during a movie and love your mom a lot.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="scorpio">Scorpio</h2>



<p>Incredibly empathetic themselves, Scorpios are attracted to those who are deeply intuitive and can understand other people’s emotions and motivations. They want to be with someone they can trust completely. They like people who listen with compassion and aren’t afraid to feel even the most intense emotions.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="taurus">Taurus</h2>



<p>Empathetic people are very close to a Taurus’ heart. As pragmatic and practical as they are, they know having an empath around is good for them. They possess empathetic traits and like people with as much of a steadfast and reliable nature. They’re also attracted to those who genuinely care about the well-being of others around them.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="virgo">Virgo</h2>



<p>Virgos gravitate towards compassionate people. Though they don’t show it, they have a sensitivity to them. They can be hard on themselves often, so they’re attracted to those who can easily offer a listening ear and a helping hand.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="1-virgo">1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Virgo</h2>



<p>Virgo is the perfectionist of the entire zodiac. Whether it’s their career or love life, they often look for the things that need fixing or their definition of “perfect”—nothing less. It’s their way of striving for excellence and stability. But it’s also something to take caution in. If not careful, their systematic approach could point them to anxiety and burnout.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="2-leo">2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Leo</h2>



<p>It’s hard to tell a Leo to go with the flow, let alone accept failed plans or their flaws. With their ambitious nature, they tend to want the best in life. Relationships and career combined. And when some don’t work out, they have difficulty swallowing their pride and accepting it for what it is. If not careful, they may seek attention and recognition in the wrong places.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="3-capricorn">3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Capricorn</h2>



<p>Capricorns can be too ambitious for their own good. Whether it’s their career or personal goals, failure to them is non-existent. They’re methodical and do everything with a system, so even the thought of a mistake is non-negotiable. They have difficulty with falling short, let alone a spelling mistake. If not careful, they could risk seeing something for its potential rather than for what it is.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="4-taurus">4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Taurus</h2>



<p>Whether it’s changed plans or doing things another way, Taurus would rather stick to theirs. Like the other earth signs, they like when things are in order. From advanced planning to a carefully curated itinerary, they thrive in certainty and would rather opt out of life’s curveballs. They have a hard time when things go awry. If not careful, their plans may be too rigid for others to follow.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="5-libra">5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Libra</h2>



<p>Libras get overwhelmed easily. Like Virgo, they also have a desire to want things in order. But they find it harder to start because they don’t know where they can. They often strive for perfection in their looks and personal life. They want to look their best and live a stable life but fall short in the in-between time and time again. If not careful, they could focus on what they don’t have and ignore what they already do.&nbsp;</p>

<p class="has-text-align-center"><em><strong>Here are the three most obsessive birth months.</strong></em></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="1-november">1. November</h2>



<p>You can&#8217;t talk obsession without mentioning November. While those born in November may put on the front that they don&#8217;t care and are as tough as nails, this water sign is actually extremely sensitive and takes everything to heart. November native&#8217;s obsessive ways often present in the form of extreme possessiveness over those they hold close, especially a romantic partner.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="2-july">2. July</h2>



<p>Those born in July are deeply intuitive and emotional water sign who cares just a little too much about their loved ones. This loyalty often teeters into obsessive territory. While those born in July may believe they&#8217;re just being nurturing, it can sometimes be a little bit too much for others.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="3-may">3. May</h2>



<p>Stubborn May natives are a fixed earth sign who knows exactly what they want and will stop at nothing to make sure they get it. This can lead to obsessive tendencies in work, relationships, and personal projects.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="1-scorpio">1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Scorpio</h2>



<p>Like everything else, Scorpios give their all to their friendships. So, when one doesn’t work out, they have difficulty processing why. It takes a lot for them to let someone in. And once they do, they put a lot of effort towards them. They’re heartbroken at any loss. But letting go of a friend will always hurt the most.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="2-aries">2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Aries</h2>



<p>Aries become invested in the things they love. Especially when it’s their friends. Like Scorpio, they put in everything they have in their friendships. So, when they lose one, they take it to heart. They’ll have a hard time letting go of the memories and the love shared between them. They’ll need time to process the loss and accept it for what it is.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="3-taurus">3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Taurus</h2>



<p>Taurus is incredibly sentimental. But like Scorpio, they don’t let in people easily. It takes a lot for them to make a friend. So, when it doesn’t work out, they become incredibly disappointed. Connections mean a lot to them. And they’re usually in it for the long haul when they make one. So, when they say goodbye, they know it’ll always sting.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="4-pisces">4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pisces</h2>



<p>Pisces sees their friends as family. So, when they lose one after years of being so close, it will undeniably hurt them. They will treat it like any loss and grieve all the memories shared. They’ll find it hard to let go of the inside jokes, the times when they felt the most loved and when they were there when no one was.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="5-cancer">5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cancer</h2>



<p>Friendships are near and dear to Cancer. They don’t take breakups lightly, especially when they’ve grown up with that person. Their friends are part of who they are, and they keep them close to their hearts. They can’t imagine a life without them. So, when it’s time to let go of one, they take it as hard as if they broke up with a boyfriend. They’ll find it difficult not to call them, see them or let them know of any good news.&nbsp;</p>
