Scorpio woman, newly dating Leo man and I would say no one has ever driven me so crazy, or made me feel more magnetically drawn to him.

I am not experienced with Leos and I have accidentally wounded his pride a few times and paid the price with days of silence. He always comes back to me, contrite and asking me to forgive his pride and stubborness.

Right now, he has hurt me and I am not sure why he has done it. I think there is a small chance I made him jealous or angry by not contacting him for a couple of days and going out with another man for dinner (purely a friend) because I woke up to find I had been blocked on Facebook at midnight the night I went to dinner :/

He was angry and giving me the silent treatment for 10 days, then he slowly comes back talking to me, and he is sweet again now and wants to see me.

I am very confused! Are Leo's this jealous they will do impulsive and crazy things like this? And he gets so angry and refuses to speak to me.

What the main problem is, is that I do not know when he acts like this whether he is:

a) angry at me and I need to stroke his ego

or

b) his silence or strange actions are really rejections and I should leave him alone.

Right now, after he blocked me on Facebook I am worried he did it to hide something (another woman) or because he doesn't like me. I cant ask him because he lies. I am close to giving up and dating someone else.

When he is sweet he is amazing...but he gives me a lot of stress too. He never apologises (well he kind of sweet talks me) and he pulls me in and pushes me away.

Help!

Does he just not like me enough or is this Leo being Leo?

Yes



Lol @ that answer. I swear all these stories sound like my ex leo, and he was definitely manipulative and narcissistic. I could totally see him doing this to someone just so they would be "all in" and he would have that control over them AND he will admittedly do this with women he has no feelings for. Admittedly. Scary thing! It's manipulative behavior period. Stop playing into it and get yourself someone that doesn't need to play childish games to gain control of you and the situation.

He didnt communicate with me either, and I was with a friend, which he does frequently.


Ohhhh

Soo... instead of saying that you think it's

tacky and disrespectful to take other women

out while dating you (because it is... and I

assume he was doing this when you met), you

decided to give him *a taste of his own medicine*?


LEO and Scorpio both have massive egos.

If you don't find a way around the (extreme) differences

in communication, it can end badly and unnecessarily.

Since it was orchestrated on your part, just tell the

truth... I doubt he had any agenda on his.

Unfortunately, he was probably oblivious to the fact

that he was being such a troll, but he will probably

end up apologizing, again.

But you have to take an ego hit by actually admitting

that it bothers you.

Umm...no! You read all that into what I said?

Not at all. We are newly dating, we don't tell each other where we are going every moment of the day. I was out with a male FRIEND because I like my male friend. Not with some medicine tasting agenda—!!!

And I did not contact for a few days because I was away working, I work hard as an event planner and it was a big 3 day event. He didn't contact me either, to ask how my event went or whatever, which actually made me feel a little hurt.

Anyway, my Leo has calmed down...he is now sweet and soft again and wants to say sorry to me. He says he is afraid of being hurt and this is why he acts like he does, he says he wants to get better at it. I don't know how to deal with this man but we are drawn together like magnets, but his drama is making me crazy.

I don't think I have ever found anyone more attractive though. I can't believe how possessive and impulsive he is...and so PROUD!!! Even when he is so obviously wrong he doesn't say sorry unless I say sorry first (even if I did nothing wrong) :/

I may be Scorpio but his ego is waaaaaay bigger!

Aren't things supposed to be going smooth and drama free in the newly dating stage? Nobody has to live your life but you OP, so if drama is your thing then stick with this. It sounds like the possesive/proud/impulsive thing is not going to get better. You have to decide if this is what you want to deal with long term.

I still get the possessive, stubborn, drama from my ex, and we've been broken up for over a year. But the kind've things like this that he was doing didn't start until after we broke up and kept going back and forth on if we were going to be together. I NEVER got hot/cold behavior or drama from him when he was pursuing me and we were dating and together. Maybe he's not sure about everything.

No I don't like drama, I have never dated anyone like this before and I am usually a sensible person.

What he has explained to me, at seeming difficulty, is that he was cheated on in his last long term relationship and ever since he has been like this. He says he is getting better, that he will slowly begin to trust me and that he promises it's only because he likes me and is finding it difficult.

I am all for going for someone with no baggage, but in this case I want to give it a chance, although he IS driving me crazy I am gentle natured and a good communicator and I am hoping that we can get past this first stage. I do feel like he is testing me a bit, I do feel like he is insecure a bit, I do feel like what is underneath might just be amazing.

Also, like I said, there's a fire and intensity between us that I have honestly never experienced before with anyone. I have just never met anyone who behaves in such a childish and impulsive way sometimes - but he does laugh at himself after

If you guys just started dating and are just friends then why are you so bothered by his actions you have to be real with yourself first.
