Hello pals,

there is this Scorpio guy I like for nearly a year. Yes, I'm single and never had a boyfriend. I'm twenty by the way. So, I like him really much and he has no idea what is happening inside of me when I see him or think of him.
When we first started being around each other at university, we kind of clicked and it was really nice to be around his company at least for me. But I think he liked it too. Anyway, I haven't seen a clear sign he might be into me. We were just like friends, you know.
Now... I'm really shy (triple Cancer...) and can sometimes be rigid or oblivious to attention from guys (virgo asc...). And I made my best to hide the interest for him (not sure how leo venus plays out here). Which I now think of as a mistake.
I thought, if he really likes me, then he will show it in a clear way. There would be no way that I would ask him out or even initiate flirting. But he didn't show me anything.
It was the opposite. We drew away from each other and made just little talk the past half a year. He was kind of nice and flirty with other girls, I was pretending that I don't care and sure I found ways to distract myself, but everytime in my head I go back to him and FEEL something. Something so strong, so intense I have never felt for any guy before.
Now... I know the only way to finally get over this is to show my interest to him and see how he responds. So I can move on or stay with.
But the reason I'm asking for your advice or opinion is that:
1. Maybe I'm setting myself up for failure, because when I "kind of" sensed his interest was a long time ago and now it could be all different. Besides, he never actually told me or did something "extra" to seduce me or something. I know it sounds silly, but I have experience where guys went full speed for me to get attention or affection in return. And with him... there were of course some smiles, long eye contacts from afar, touches. But again...long time ago.
2. And the most important one - I'm **** scared of showing the interest. My feelings for him or whatever are so strung up and so up in my throat that I'm almost choking. Year of secret crush is too much. I cannot act as a normal human around him anymore. I'm super shy, nervous, unnatural... It would be VERY difficult for me to ask him out! I'm going crazy

So... I don't know...

Should I show him interest in a CLEAR way (I mean, no smiles or jokes, or eye contact is working, because I'm already doing that, so a strong hint...strong one)?
Or maybe I'm making myself a too difficult task?

P.S. But I really really like him. I cannot forget him easily (I see him often!).

He is Cap Asc, Scorpio Sun and Merc, Virgo Moon and Mars, Libra Venus.
I'm Cancer Sun, Moon and Merc, Leo Venus, Libra Mars

Thank you very much.

The fact that he is a Cap asc makes it good because hopefully your sun will fall into his 7th house. I am currently seeing a guy who's sun falls into my 7th, wow!!! I have never dated a Scorpio but both my daughters have a Scorpio boyfriend. I did see a guy for a year and a half with his jupiter in Scorpio. Talk about intense! He seemed like he wan't that interested or had lost interest in me so I let things go.

As far as making the first move, I'm not sure. Most Scopios that I have ever met seem to shy up around me, I have had one that was a boyfriend to my friend, we had some pretty intersting conversations but outside of that , thats all I have ever seen. I have a Cancer sun as well.

Hello there


go for it.

if you don't, you may regret it in the future, and blame yourself that he "became the one that got away"

as far as my own experience goes, scorpios like other people making the first move and approaching them

Sometimes it appears to me that he avoids my company. But it is all so awkward I even think that he's just as shy as me.
Can you tell me more about approaching scorpios and more precise experiences of your own, if you will?

Thank you anyway for responding. It helps

You guys are/were friends so you know a little about him.I think you're the greatest person to tell how he would like to be approached

Games. This is one of the games Scorpios are famous for, fleeing the scene just as you're approaching. This is the point where, if I were interested in one, I lose interest immediately. I then ignore them totally until they seek me out. When they come looking for me it's realized the chemistry has died.

Generally I'd advise you to approach a Scorpio as they need the reassurance of being wanted. However, with this current guy avoiding you, I won't advise approaching him. He sounds sadistic, however shy he may appear, and will probably use your revelation to mess with your mind. This one is into mind games.

coffee,
This from a male's perspective approaching a female Scorpio.

With my Scorpio Moon and Mercury, you might think I'd be on the same page as a girl Sun of that sign.

Maybe on occasion I have been on the same page with a female Scorpio and didn't know it

Therein lies my problem with the Dark Sign - the only thing you'll ever know for sure is that you don't know. And the more you'd like to know, the less you're likely to know.

Why wade into an unknown swamp at 20? Males of that age, Scorpio or otherwise, are usually still boys.

The ability to wait is the Master Aptitude of life.

scorpios have a way of looking at things, even relationships as if they're investments; that's why they like and prefer it when the other person approaches, because then they are assured that they won't waste time or pride pursuing someone who isn't into them

they're also quick at the uptake, and can tell almost immediately whether someone they meet is a friend and can be trusted or not

I wonder if you've been sending him mixed signals, especially since you mention you have cancer placements (occasional moodiness)

scorpios are after steadiness and stability (taurus) in relationships, because naturally taurus rules their 7th

he might have received an unfriendly signal from you, and hence decided that he can't trust you; but in case there has been such a misunderstanding, and if you really care about him, there is nothing a friendly talk can't fix

Thank you so much. You are all really widening my pont of view.

Empty Spaces - well I saw how other girls were flirting with him, but he remained poised and not really into responding the same way. I think he clearly knows what he wants, but a girl isn't his goal. You have to be as much as easygoing as insidious to make him loose his guard and get what you want. I don't know how to make it work though. Aquas and geminis are better at this game. Which in fact are types he seemingly wants to talk and spend time with.
Nine- absolutely agree. Back to the days we were spending more time together, I tried my best to somehow charm him. He seemed flattered. A compliment here and there, a smile, an appreciation. But when circumstances changed I went cold and maybe have sent some signals that he misunderstood. So now he is unapproachable.
GrandFireT- this is what I needed to hear - I have plenty experience to gain, so why stop at this boy? Well, it is not easy to forget him though...
girlwiththerainysoul - it might be that I had put him off, especially few times at parties when he went up to talk with me and the conversation failed because of me.
Anyway, thanks one more time you guys for food for thoughts. I will now take a relaxed approach and try to think as little as possile aout him. When I will have a chance to make a difference between us, I will be brave. But other times I will just be calm and myself.

I agree with you, rainy soul.

My 8th house is mostly in Scorpio so I tend to get entangled with them a lot ( I am a Virgo), almost all of my ex's were Scorpios.
I was usually the chaser with them, because I like things on my term ( Pluto in my 7th).
My estranged husband is also a Scorpio, I chose him, we dated, and then I sort of proposed marriage to him ( but I knew he was into it anyway).

He has Venus in Libra.

Men with this Venus sign are looking for a living Barbie doll. Someone who is naturally pretty, dresses nice, smells nice, and puts a lot of effort into her appearance.

Does this describe you? If not, maybe that's why he isn't making himself available to you.

Wow. This is one of those awkward life moments one gets into.

Its no big deal whom makes the 1st move-so long as both parties are down. But I always think it better to test the waters before jumping in head first.

Fish to see if your feelings are reciprocated. Because if you jump right in and he responds in a manner that is uncomfortable. You could feel terribly embarrassed.

Most people may not walk up to u and tell you they like you. But there are tell tale signs of whether or not they are soft when it comes to you.

With Moon in earthy Virgo, cards are played very close to the chest but charm gets through to all people.

Re-establish a rapport. Chat to him. Find out what he is all about and chat to him about stuff you have in common and see if he keeps the momentum going.

Open an invitation to something that you and friends enjoy. See if he shows up.

Body language and eye contact. When we like someone, the whole world does not exist(for that time) and we give them undivided attention by focusing on them exclusively.

Random chats on chat applications esp a "Hi" initiated by him and long ass messages is usually a sign that they have the hots for ya.

Get closer and get to know the guy. You could be fantasizing over an ideal that has been exaggerated in your mind. Make contact and see what he is all about before jumping right in.

Thank you for advice.

I was kind of doing my best flirty moves back then when we were in contact like every day. And sometimes talking just us two.

But it never went past the limits or barriers. I'm blaming myself for that, because maybe there wasn't enough SIGN from my part.

But correcting mistakes after a lot time that has passed is really difficult. Maybe he moved on really well and I'm standing in this place alone. We weren't ar aren't really close to discuss that though.

So, considering what you all said - I will just keep it fresh and light and conversations engaging. A lot talking and so on. If I will manage to do that and if he won't run away from me of course

Girl!! I say you go make him know!! But slowly and steady . Because just like everyone says, if you never try, you'll just get stuck with the feeling of gilt and you'll only be thinking about it again and again and againn!

It is funny tho because I think I am in a similar situation as you as in I met a guy this past weekend and he's been in my mind these past few days... I think I'm gonna go slow and steady on this one too

Anyways, keep updating us on the situation Would love to help if it is needed ! Take care xo
