Have you ever noticed how some of the strongest people are the most kind and giving? Soft-hearted people seem to really hold their own in every sense of the term.

Women in this day and age seem to be labeled all kinds of things, and while many would consider soft-hearted to be some kind of a put-down, I don’t believe it is. There is nothing wrong with being willing to do things for those who cannot do for themselves. If we do not help one another in this life man of us will fall through the cracks.

Some of the strongest women I have ever come across were what you would call soft-hearted. They would give the shirts off their backs if they saw someone who needed them badly enough. Below I am going to go over some of the things I have noticed in those women that chances are you might even see in yourself.

13 Signs You Are A Strong But Soft-Hearted Woman:

1. She will not sugar coat things.

She will never sugar coat anything!  She says the things that she says because they need to be said. Sometimes the most painful things to hear are the things we need to hear the most.

2. She cares for others deeply.

She cares for the people around her, so much more than they realize. She is there for them in ways most other people aren’t. She truly takes her connections very seriously.

3. She is all for empowering others.

She helps to empower others because she knows how truly amazing it is to feel that way. She will empower other women and work to help everyone find their inner strength. She will always be a good role model.

4. She pays attention to the feelings of others.

She will always pay attention to how other people feel. If someone is down and out she feels the need to help lighten their mood. She has a six sense about people, and can tell when something is off.

5. She cannot stand to see anyone in pain.

When someone is in pain she cannot stand it, and is willing to do anything she can to help. She knows what it is like to hurt and wouldn’t wish that on anyone else.

6. She struggles when it comes to saying ‘no.’

Because she is so giving she doesn’t often say no. She struggles with saying no and usually takes on more than she should. This is something she needs to work on.

7. She is unapologetically herself.

She is who she is, and she is not changing for anyone else. She will not pretend to be someone she is not. She is not a toy to be played with.

8. She likes her alone time.

She needs her alone time to recharge. She likes spending time thinking things through and relaxing. Life is too hectic to not slow down and take a few minutes here and there.

9. She has strong opinions on lots of things in this world.

She has a lot of strong opinions. When something is going on in the world she makes sure to educate herself on it. She does not go through the motions and ignore the things before her.

10. She is independent.

She is a very independent person, and will never rely on anyone but herself.

11. You love giving back and do so whenever you can.

She is someone that loves to do things for other people. She is always doing kind things and volunteering when she can. She really does make a difference in the lives of the people around her.

12. When someone betrays her, she takes it hard but also struggles to move on.

She is not someone that can just cut people out of her life. She takes things hard, but she also doesn’t know how to move on.

13. She does not tolerate disrespect.

She will not let someone disrespect her. Betrayal is one thing but complete disrespect is not something she can handle. This is something that lights her up and leaves her throwing a raging fit. She is always respecting everyone else and expects the same thing in return.
