I'm a cancer ascendant, with scorpio on my 5th house cusp along with pluto and mars in it. Needless to say I seem to have a thing with scorpio, especially scorpio moons (I am a cap moon)

Recently I've been stumbling on how they play mind games.
I knew they did to an extent but I did not expect what I learned, so now I am asking if any of you has any experience with scorpio men (esepcially scorpio moon) to tell me whether these are true or not:

It stated that:
Do scorpio ignore you when they want to win your attention to gauge your interest in them ?
Do they ever confess their feelings especially if unsure of the other's interest.
How far would they go just to know how much interest you have in them or to get a reaction from you?

For example would it be likely for scorpio to talk about the feelings they have for another girl to a former love interest (not an ex) just to gauge their reaction?

Do they enjoy when one confesses their feelings to them?

just ime, as my bf is a scorpio moon.

>>Do scorpio ignore you when they want to win your attention to gauge your interest in them ?
no. in my own case he became a friend and studied me very closely. perhaps young, teen guys would do this just because of age

>>Do they ever confess their feelings especially if unsure of the other's interest.
never. they'll wait until they are 1,000 % sure you like them

>>For example would it be likely for scorpio to talk about the feelings they have for another girl to a former love interest (not an ex) just to gauge their reaction?
no. they are really the type of men who can hold secrets and not "kiss and tell." they are secretive and do not seem to brag about women to other women.

>>Do they enjoy when one confesses their feelings to them?
yes, they like feelings and emotions.

it seems like you/the guy are young? immaturity might be causing him to act in other ways. i.e. ignoring someone you like, playing games, etc

Hello!

My scorpio guy (cancer moon btw) ignores me when:
1) he genuinely doesn't have time to answer my txt
2) he genuinely doesn't know how or doesn't want to answer my Q's
3) he is going through some emotional de-clattering and sorting out thoughts

In the beginning, he gauged my interest by really observing my behaviours. If I did something that was offending to him, he would get really upset as if I betrayed his feelings. At that time, I had no idea how sensitive he was, or how serious he was with me.

How far would they go to test me on this... Hmmm I can't really comment on this. He was very honest with his feelings. If he felt I was making up stories, he would call me on it. He would really analyze how I reason (again observing my behaviours).

He tells me he has a crush on an actress from movies and stuff - I don't really take it seriously. Lol. I was seeing another scorpio casually a couple of years back. We didn't work out but it seems that he sees me as a honest friend so he talks to me about relationship stuff. I don't think he's trying to make me feel jealous or anything though - just friends discussing relationship issues.

My guy loves compliments! I mean who doesn't.. hehe. He was the first to say the 3 words though, and it was really shocking when he said it. However, until he said those words I really wasn't sure where I stood with him. I don't know why... :S Maybe it was all part of his game!

thank you for those replies.

Well I didn't pay attention to those "games" honestly until I read about them. I mean someone who is going to ignore me for along while to get my attention is going to ignore me for a long while..

This I found weird though,

I thought so too. So what if they do?

Maybe he wants to see how jealous you get.. The more jealous you are, the more you're into him..

If he's doing this, I'd be so annoyed!!!

I don't know , this only crossed my mind as I was reading all those scorpio mind games that all seem crazy.

But it does surprise me. I knew a virgo sun scorpio moon guy and I know he never talked about his feelings. Only to a private few. He would never had admitted his love unless he wold have 100% sure it was reciprocated.
Now this guy who is also a scorpio moon, is being rather open about it. It's not explicit, more implied but still. And I find it weird knowing he's a scorpio moon.

I also have a cancer ascendant with scorpio fifth house=) Pluto in the fifth too. I had one scorpio moon interested in me for a prolonged period of time, so I can answer based on my experience with him.

Do scorpio ignore you when they want to win your attention to gauge your interest in them ?
He didn't at first. He was very obsessive and would text me constantly about the most monotonous things. I was interested at first, but my interest quickly faded and I guess he sensed it because he let up a little. He stopped texting me so frequently and started "ignoring me" to a degree. At that point I felt safe telling him my feelings for him weren't the same. He then became ENRAGED and very bitter...he started going off the deep end a little bit. So short answer: I think they alternate between obsessiveness and playing "hard to get." But the playing hard to get part doesn't mean they're not interested.

Do they ever confess their feelings especially if unsure of the other's interest.
He did, but even though I hadn't said anything I'm pretty sure he was confident that I reciprocated to some degree.

How far would they go just to know how much interest you have in them or to get a reaction from you?
He asked me out once and I told him I wanted to hold off till I was certain of my feelings. He continued texting me obsessively and would drop things into conversation in a futile attempt to make me jealous. After I told him I didn't have those same feelings for him he would text me telling me about what a bad boy he was (which kind of defeats the purpose), going on about drinking and drugs and drag racing. I think they can be pretty ruthless.

I also knew a scorpio moon girl who would stop at nothing to get a rise out of guys. Even if she wasn't interested in them, she still wanted to know they were interested in her, and she would stop at nothing...even if they were dating someone else.

Well, here is my experience with a sun,venus,mars in scorpio man;

1- like someone said 'they alternate between obsessiveness and playing "hard to get." '

2- I am a very complex character and I can confuse him hell a lot and he can never understand where I truly stand with him. So, he mostly acts detached. But it has been on/off 5 years - does not let me go.

I try to show my feelings for him but because I am very Plutonian as well and because I am not sure of his feelings, I don't confess either. I treat him as if he is my sexual obsession but the truth is I am deeply in love with him.

I think we both think we might be playing mind games with each other...

3- He loves to make me jeaolous. He talks about other women, former lovers, flirt with other women in front of my eyes and then laugh at it when I get mad. But of course the coin has two sides.. I do the same to him. Unfortunately, the more we try to make each other jeaolous the more we cool off..

5 years, still it's not going anywhere but for some unidentified reason can't get out of it permanently... It's off now but I know sooner or later it will be on again..

If I can get off the hook, I swear I am not going to get involved with a heavy scorpio man again...

I have a Capricorn Moon as well and Pluto/SN in Scorpio in the 5th. I've had many Scorpio Mooners in my life. I find them honest, trustworthy and extra reliable. I don't really trust anyone other than people who have Scorpio planets in close aspect to my Capricorn planets. I don't find them manipulative or immature. They don't play head games with me. Nothing about them could ever seriously bother me because I like them too much. In my opinion, Scorpio/Capricorn is one of the best matches in synastry

Speaking from the perspective of a solar Scorpio...

Yes Scorpios can be manipulative, but generally only if they are feeling a bit 'unsafe' in a relationship. I feel this way if a partner is not emotionally engaged or is distant in some way. One reaction is to push the person away to test their interest. On a really down day it is done as a form of punishment. I'm inclined to think this happens more with Scorpio moons. In my opinion Scorpio sun people can channel those feelings a bit better because they are more conscious of it, rather than instinctual (moon).

Scorpios need to feel something in order to release some of those unwieldy emotions, both good and bad. Sometimes the boat is deliberately shaken to do that, but not always. The more emotionally evolved ones won't.

Lastly, it's generally not easy to deceive Scorpios. They sense people's motives, and if your motives are genuine, they're not afraid to express exactly how they feel. Just respect their privacy and all is good.

As a Scorpio, nothing revolts me quicker than people blabbing all over Facebook about their relationship woes. If a partner did that to me, I would terminate that relationship and never look back.

Well, my immature Sco ex did. Kissing and telling was his thing, occasionally he'd do so to test one's reactions. [sag asc,leo moon]

I thought so too. So what if they do?
[/QUOTE]

look at the entire chart if something doesn't blend w/what you think it should. a more fiery sign (ie leo/aries) placement might encourage bragging and flirting. etc., as would the moon in the 5th, or a venus 5th. study the entire natal and not just the moon sign

As a Scorpio mars I do take a little joy in toying with my opponents.

Like a cat and string.
I just love to see people squirm.

Haha, this past Christmas when my sister showed up to my Grandma's I asked her where the corn and green beans were. She had no idea what I was talking about so I told her at thanksgiving everyone was assigned something to bring to Christmas and she had corn and green beans.
I took so much pleasure in watching her panic, im still laughing about it.

What's a little harmless laugh?
Some people make it so easy.

I ment to add that after they are done toying with you and feel like you're a good candidate they will probably open up their feelings a little more.

Let them play, it keeps them engaged

I was just talking about this on another thread. When I was single, I was pursued (borderline stalked) by a Scorpio sun...and I would have gone out with him except it's weird to date your stalker and, more importantly, he was constantly talking about other women.

I got the impression he was in love with twenty girls at once. So of course I wasn't going to date him. So why did he ask me out over and over for three years?

I always get along with Scorpios, platonically.

^ LMAO Vajra! Yes, that's exactly what this Scorpio did. Oh and "Girls prettier, smarter, richer, and more interesting than YOU have loved me so....you should love me."

(That's not what he actually said, but that was the gist of it.)

Also, since then I've learned the one that pursues you the hardest isn't always the one that will be the most passionate, loving or loyal.


Exactly.

Thing is, I was incredibly attracted to this guy...physically we had a strong magnetism...he just made it impossible for me to move on it.

Weird, I know.

"bullied into giving in"

Sadly that was a large part of the reason I stayed with my Leo sun boyfriend in college. Sometimes he did say, "No one else will love you as much as I do, you'll never find another guy like me," which unfortunately for him was a totally worthless statement, as I had been shown love much more demonstrably by other guys. But he had my Pisces moon in a stranglehold with his "I will fall completely apart if you leave me...everything will be ruined" ball and chain.

Not overt bullying but a selfish manipulation.

Whoops I guess I'm getting off topic.
