Manipulative Water Signs

I have had a few disagreements with some friends and it recently occurred to me that their star signs and the nature of the disagreements were the same. Basically I've noticed that the water signs tend to be manipulative, the techniques and motivations varying between the signs. To illustrate what I mean, I can give you an example for each of Cancer, Pisces and Scorpio.

I know a Scorpio man with whom I had a brief fling with years ago. It didn't work out and we remained friends and social buddies afterwards. I squared it with him that I was no longer interested in him romatically and he accepted this and things would be fine until some occasion where he would become jealous and angry with the fact that he was aware that I was chasing some guy or interested in someone. He would then be quite nasty and send me insulting messages. When I'd confront him the next time, he would totally play it down alsmot as if it were in my head and it would eventually be forgotten until next time when

he'd do it again. Confonting him about it went noweher so I just avoided talking with him in the company of anyone that I might like or someone that might tickle this scorp's jealousy. So nothing got resolved, and Mr Scopio got his way by not having to be put through the discomfort of being with me and having anyone else around to upset the illusion that somehow men and him being together in a bar meant we were actually an item.

Next sign please.....and it's Cancer: I've been friends with a Cancer woman for a few years now. We got on well up until I guess we started becoming too familiar with eachother. She initially had always been very polite and mannerly and was always very respectful. She had an on-off boyfriend for the last few years who scrounged off her and basically drained her emotionally. She broke up with him last year but in the mean time she has pretty dramatically altered her personality. She sleeps around a lot and has become very shallow in the way she treats people

and also her ex lovers. We fell out a few months ago because she started getting annoyed with me for doing things that she felt were "not on" and disrespectful. The things were very mundane and something I don't think most epople would have a problem with. The first occasion, I was taken aback by her complaint and I said I was sorry that I had offended her but then the next time she reacted like this I decided that I didn't deserve this kind of chastisement either so I told her that if she felt I wasn't a good friend then to leave it at that. Recently we have been in contact but it's in the form of a very feeble email correspondence. From my viewpoint she has transformed into a different person. On looking back I recall that she said a lot of things that her later actions and behavior contradicted. Like that she slept around a lot more while with ehr boyfriend that she first implied, that she would say that she "loves" various different men and then fall in "love" with someone else sur

...surprisingly quickly. I have concluded that she is a fairly shallow character who says one thing and then does another. (I have to put my hand up and say that I do this myself too)

A cancer man I know really takes the biscuit though: I met him in a coffee shop I worked in a few years ago when he was a customer. We kissed once. And that is is.
K-i-s-s-e-d. He took this as some form of betrothal and afterward plagued me with emails and text messages. I fairly quickly began to see how much I actually didn't fancy him and proceeded to tell him so. He took the news very dramatically and told me how much I had toyed with his heart and how I "shouldn't kiss a man unless it means something to me". (yes just KISS). I tried to appease him and apologise and play along with his dramatic displays and said I didn't mean to hurt his feelings.

We remained in contact but he'd always say how difficult it was for him to get over being hurt like this but that he really liked me and thought I

was a good person and wanted to help me as best he could so that is why he was going to stay in touch with me. If I was an onlooker I would say he was ridiculous and silly but when I was in the middle of it it was quite difficult to slip out his ravings of how hurt he was. I actualy did feel bad for a while too for kissing him! So I would be bombarded with emails and messages and this went on more or less up until a few months ago. I thought it was because he was just chilling out and loosening up. But then I saw him hand in had with another woman! I said hi to him and he looked a bit nervous and awkward. Anyway I don't hear from him at all now and it has left me quite annoyed with him that I let him manipulate me into feeling bad and guilty that I didn't want to go out with him up until he actually a found a woman that was interested in him and then he dumped me like a hot s***!

And now Vanessa the moment you've been waiting for, Pisces please in the hot seat!

Ok had a falling out with a pisces friend of mine. She has a few problems, the main one being that she has depression. She has a few "bad habits" which include not answering the phone when we have arranged a meeting or date, texting and calling me in the middle of the night and early hours of the morning, and making excuses for everything that she messes up on. I texted me in the middle of the night to ask me to stop bitching about her as she had found out that I was. I don't know how she heard this but I had only said to a mutual friend of ours how peed off I was that we had arranged to meet for a friend's birthday for a meal and she wouldn't answer her phone when we called her to find out where she was. This text woke me up and I got angry with her and told her all the things I had held back before. Apparently she was upset but I don't think that keeping these things to myself has been helping he

...her either. I felt bad a for a while but I think it's better that we don't hang out with eachother if we're both gonna have different views on these basic things. She didn't apologise for waking me up and again reviewing her past behavior, I notice that she has supplied flimsy excuse for not getting a job and not answering our calls and not being able to go to me to return money I loaned her (I had to go to her). She would never acknowledge that she was in the wrong or had a problem. Our mutual Sagitauries friend, who is very tolerant and jolly and easy going said that he's sure she is aware of these things being a problem but perhaps my capricorn mercury and venus makes me more cynical in this regard. Anyway I feel she has been maniupulative in that she has consistently supplied a whole list of excuses for her

problems that have inconvenienced others instead of just admitting that she was at fault and I feel she has shown little regard for the others she has peed of ins o doing.


FINISHED!!

i know water signs....throw that shit back at them...their biggest strength is also their weakness...they'll respect u more if you do....sensitive touchy fuckers ( i meant them, not you guys....and even then i meant it as a "term of endearment")

Bla bla bla,

Yadda yadda yadda,

i find water signz VERY VERY manipulative... especially scorpioz n cancerz... pisces can b a lil' manipulative but scorpz n cancerz beat 'em 🙂 thatz based on my personal experience 🙂...

WOW! You guys seam to know your signs pretty well

I partly agree with all comments there. I have a cancer girl friend who does the same MellowDee - I ignore that - I tell her when she is being a tart too. Superficial girl sometimes & she has pissed allot of my other friends off doing it - the last time she came & hung out with my friends I told her she can't be a tart because they are down to earth & wont stand for bullshit. She was great about it & was really down to earth.
I had 2 Libra guys pull the same stunt as ur Cancer dude

I can be manipulative - I have told my friends that & they know when to shut me down now 🙂
antibling - I agree with you
> but,I will toy with people or push my luck just to see what happens/intrigue/boredom...and I like it when people catch me out/pull me up on it,as it's mroe stimulating and fun,plus usually the ones who don't tend to get a bit victimish ,babyish etcetcI am one really confussed little girl right now.

You know what, you might think pisces is the least manipulative. But maybe, I SAID MAYBE, that's way it's the most manipulative. Cos you just won't know.

Yet it is bad to say all water signs are manipulative. It don't think its okay to generalize this much.

What i always find extremely neccesary to do, is to always phrase the definition of the word you are using to describe something with. (even if you know exactly what it means for millions years. Also ask questions about the meaning. It helps ME analyze better.
So: What does to manipulation mean? What do you need to be able to manipulate? Why would it only be a 'water sign' thing? And can it be used positivly, or negatively, or both? Why do people manipulate etc.
