OK, Leos. I need your opinions on this one.

I've been friends with a scorpio for several years now. We have a great relationship. Most of our disagreements are relatively minor and we get past them pretty quickly. We've had some difficulties communicating lately and about a month ago we really got into it.

I felt hurt and betrayed at the time. I'm having a hard time getting past this one. I know we need to sit down and talk things out but sometimes it's just so hard to get those scorpios to say what's really on their minds.

Any suggestions?

Those little Scorps are a sensitive lot. Them and all their feelers.

This is what I have found. It takes a hell of a lot of consistency to win the friendship of a Scorp. I find Scorps tend to think the worst. They often look too deeply at something and see evil where it isn't lurking.

Now, I am not a Leo but I find the best way is to give the Scorp a few days to freak out and then go to them and clear up the miscommunication. Be patient and calm until they understand that no ill intent was meant.

Thanks for the input. You are right. Usually it is me that has the splainin' to do but this time the shoe is kind of on the other foot. New territory here.

She know I'm upset. But I know she only likes to look deeply at others and not necessarily herself so I need to tred lightly. Right?

From my experience, they tend to a little too sensitive/defensive. Just be honest. When you did this I felt this way. she might freak out but once you explain why you felt the way you did, she should be okay.

I think Scorps are going through a thing right now. My best friend and a few other Scorp friends seem supersensitive right now.

Good to know. I'll keep that in mind when I talk with her. I really do try to be a good friend but we Leos need to roar every now and then 🙂

...But I know she only likes to look deeply at others and not necessarily herself....

If this is true of her then I think she will eventually come around if it really wasn't your fault. Most like to get down to the bottom of things and evaluate situations. Most will know when they are wrong even though it doesn't seem like it. (mine does and he will snap out of it) Yeah, give it some time....

It's really not a right or wrong situation, ya' know. It's just that we keep misunderstanding each other and even though I felt the way I did I think it still boils down to just not being in the same place right now.

Thanks for your input. It's really been on my mind a lot lately. Tomorrow is my birthday and I tend to get a little reflective at this time of year.

when my friend who's also a leo have communication problems...i don't wait much long to talk to her about it...cause i feel like if i wait too long it just escalates...and becomes much bigger....

scorpio's can be very sensitive...but also understanding, when you talk to your friend...make sure to tell her exactly what your feeling...and let her know that your not trying to blame her...and acknowledge your part of the problem as well...i'm sure that she'll be very willing to listen to what you have to say and fix whatever problem is there....

as a fellow scorpio i appreciate honesty and am always glad to fix a problem....so i'm sure everything between the two of you will be fine

iam a leo and i am mates was a scorpios but she can get very aggressive sometimes. think if we had an argument, fireworks wud be everyway because we both have big egos and want control.
