Virgos are particular and this is another word for picky. You like to analyze situations.
You may seem to be finding fault but it is just your attention to detail that makes you aware (more than most) of any imperfections in people or situations. You can be self-critical and this may be a problem when you are young.
Virgos are discriminating and want perfection in life. You are kind, meticulous, fastidious, even, and can be detailed oriented.
