Solve cursor invisible on some highlights

Question

As you can see in my case, I can barely see my cursor when it is on an error highlighted by You Complete Me as an error. How do I make my cursor more visible?

My GTK+ theme is Numix, I use Gnome and this is the Gnome Terminal in XTerm colors, if that helps.

Use colors from the background theme, which is Numix, and I don't think that's relevant but I use Arc-Dark as shell theme. — huB1erTi2, Nov 09 '18 at 11:49
No, I want to know your background setting. :set background? — Christian Brabandt, Nov 09 '18 at 13:34
Sorry for being so late @ChristianBrabandt, it's light. background=light — huB1erTi2, Nov 10 '18 at 09:54

What fixed my problem, was setting background option to dark, as @ChristianBrabandt suggested in comments on my original post. :set background=dark

What it basically does is adjusting the background colors without changing the syntax highlighting colors. I won't go into much detail, as this explains it way better than I ever could.
