*Please beware the following long and convoluted story!*

This may sound like a funny question - but i was wondering what sort of behaviour Scorpio's exhibit during the dating game... Can anyone offer some insight?

This question stemms from a dilemma i'm facing at the moment regarding a Scorpio man i'm 'hunting' Ha Ha

Being a Taurus, I needn't explain the attraction i feel towards him - its bloody intense! And i have the feeling he feels the same towards me. Now i was going to play it cool, you know, wait for him to make the move... and he DID Yay He rang me and we had the most wonderful conversation. He had to go early, but he finished the conversation with the words 'Sorry I have to go, but i WILL be ringing you again SOON'.

I figured that ment he WOULD ring SOON... a week passed and no phone call from him - i have to say i was more than a little worried! I then bummped into him down the street and he said he had been really sick (pneumonia), and that he WAS intending to ring me SOON. I was happy with that.

Another week went by, and i snuck a look around at his work to see if he was better - he was working so i figured he was. I got a bit angry and figured if i want anything to happen between us I'm the one who has to make the moves.

I went up to him when he wasn't busy and said that i thought our conversation the other night (TWO weeks ago!) was great and that i wanted to get to know him better. I suggested that we meet up for a coffee. His response was that he felt the same about me, BUT, he was still feeling a little ill, and with some issues at home he would have to get back to me with a time (After the illness had got better and the issues at home were resolved).

That was now about five days ago.

Now here comes the question -
Is He Playing Games do you think? I have no idea what is going on in his head. I figure, if he wasn't interested - he would have just said NO straight out - but WHY the long silences, saying he WILL call then he doesn't.

Is this a Scorpio game?

THANKS very much for your help

Thanx Sthenri
The problem is that he isn't letting me get close to him at ALL. If i *knew* he was interested - i would try harder. But the thing is he is a very attractive person and i can't help but worry that he is too good for me, or he just doesn't find me attractive...

His data is:
16th November 1981, 3.30pm, in Bairnsdale, Victoria Australia.

He has a Cancer moon, and an Aries ascendant. I could handle the cancer moon - its the Aries ascendant i'm worried about. I'm worried that he is only attracted to 'flashy' women - and i for one am not one. I think i just need to be a bit more positive!

LOL

hi,

there was once a scorpio man interested in me last year. he did all the initiating. i wasn't terribly interested, yet was curious more about him when he initated talks than i was in pursuing a relationship.

anyhow, one day he said he had to cut ties because his feelings were so deep and, if i was really interested, i would have initiated something. he said he didn't want to get hurt.

i don't know if this helps or not.

good luck with your pursuit.

Hey Nebel,

With a Venus in Cap the 10th, and LibraPluto/Saturn in the 7th, this is someone who is very serious about career and relationship. Not to mention Cancer Moon and NN in the 4th -- I've got that too -- the Moon squares some 7th House stuff, but at least no opposition with his Venus.

Reads at first glance to me as if you've got yourself a very traditional man here, who separates career and marriage, and wants/needs a home and wife and kids. They are quite separate spheres to him. He's the kind that plays for keeps, but work comes first. He may even make himself a little sick about work and love, when his Moon is blocked or frustrated. He needs a wife who's his best mate and takes care of him, and who lets him coddle her in return (when he makes it home from the job). He's a helluva worker and will hang in there until he's the success he expects to be, but the main motivation is to create a loving "nest" of home and family.

I sense that he likes you, but suspect he's mainly wrapped up in work as he says -- he's not telling you his secrets and feelings yet, and since he's a CancerMoon in the 4th, I'll bet you an undervalued Aussie dollar that he is close to his parents and that there is some drama there that he'll reveal if the time is right. "Issues at home" indeed!! (Moon square Pluto)

Maybe he's also using this time to test you about how serious you are. This guy doesn't just want sex. Also, if he just had pneumonia, he's exhausted, and no man wants to begin an affair if he's not feeling in great shape!!

Look, if you really want his attention, do this -- keep it light, but stay in contact as you're doing -- he is not ready to go on a romantic date yet -- invoke your Taurean creativity and cook/bake him something nice (or buy it if you have to), because obviously the poor boy has been sick, is exhausted, and his CancerMoon will love such a kind gesture. If it's sincere, that is -- being a Scorp, he'll pick up any other motivations, but the CancerMoon will just be so happy at your nurture and care.

Unless you can't stomach the Earth Mother thang, which is fair. Then this is no guy for you.

Funny, he sounds like my scorp father, along with some of my characteristics.

Good luck, Nebel!

Aphrodite,
sigh. Yup. I am a scorp sun, and fell head over heels for a scorp man.

Scorpios are EXTREMELY self-protective. One must go through layers and layers and jump hurdles to prove to them that you are serious and can (and WILL) love them. We love hard and fall hard when burned, too. It takes alot of perseverence (sp).

These ones are not to be taken lightly. Love is serious business with them.

Aww gee thanks guys You make me feel a lot better about this situation

I went to his work the other night, and we talked for about three quarters of an hour - of course something came up and he had to go We seem to have these amazing conversations about all things 8th + 12th house - and i just want more! (Call me greedy!). We seem to have such a deep connection that i'm still just having trouble working out his hesitation...

Natasha Thanks so much for your words If you like, and i would be very grateful if you would, would you mind taking a look at our synestry? My data is: 4th May 1981, Geelong, Victoria, Australia... Thank you very much - i look forward to your next post

I know this is kinda off subject but, Im a pisces with an Aries moon and a Virgo Rising, I'm going after a Scorpio (know nothing more nothing less) and i am having truble just talking to her, She is always cloked by friends our something of the matter, and if i just introduced my self at any given time it would seem very akword, (i'm in high school, so the peer presure is an issue(sigh)) Esp. her being more popular then I. But i can feel this interconnectedness, and depth in her. I dont know what to do. As in Linda Goodman's Love Signs, It says that the two are very Empathetic to one anthers feelings. I can sence her mood very well. just sitting in class, she is awear of my pressence, but i have to get her to physicly agknolage it, what should i do? (03/02/87, 6:11 pm if that helps) I would aprsheate your feed back...

Oh and Nebel Good luck with your Scorpio b/c they are tricky are they ever. but me being a Pisces I have better luck with scorps. Just like Earth should do, give him a home for his heart.

This is my first time writing in. I am in love with a Scorpio man born on Nov.5, 1969.

I know that he knows that I love him. Makes no time to see me and work is his number one thing. I feel like i'm chasing him. I'm an Aries. I love the chase, but now I want him to chase me. I'm always calling, asking him out, email ect......

A few months ago to make him jealous I told him that I went back to my ex while he was away. He made it clear before he left that he were not together. Now he tells me that I cheated. When I revealed that I lied to make him jealous, he made me call my ex to show him that I was indeed faithful and now he is sooooo cold with me and wont give our relationship a second try.

What can I do get this Complicated Scorpio to trust me again? I know he likes me, but I want him as my man!

I know that he dates other girls- He wont admited but my instincts tell me other wise.

I love this man
Should I keep calling or wait for his call. Everytime I call , he tells me that he is too busy with work to see me.
YEah Right!

Help me

I've never known a Scorpio to be bullied, pestered, guilted, forced into anything. They have this obsession with 'control', and they have a way of making others (who also like to control) become obesessive about them, because they're impossible to persuade into anything. THEY make all the decisions in their lives and the rest of us just have to live with it. If he's decided that you're
not his type, because you've been proven to be manipulative (that's HIS territory), then there's nothing you can do about it.
Giving up on him may be the only thing that brings him around. Or, he may not come around, and you're just gonna have to move on. ...Not what you wanted to hear, I know, but that's the way it is with them. Maybe this man would prove to be too frustrating for you in the long haul anyway.
I say...let him go.

Scorpios can turn the most reasonable, rational person into an obsessive, love sick, pathetic mess, so beware.

I met him on December 4, 2002. It was great he was all over me.It was nice. He is such a deep and wonderful person.

I love this guy, I want to call him now, but I wont. I haven't called since August 29,2003-We went out last week. On Aug 13,2004 till 5 Am
We went to the place we met at. It was nice a lot of women hit on him. As a Scorpio male he is sued to it. He told me not to let those girls intimidate me.
I need for him to want me, want to spend more time with me without me making him do it, or begging. I use to call him 3 times a day!
I am so pathetic now. Oh well......

And it kills me that I have no control over this.

The thing is that I didn't betray him. I caught him with a girl and made up the fact that i went back to my ex. When he told me that he was so hurt, I fessed up and told him that I was never with the guy.

He is Crazy, I'am crazzy
