He says he's more intense in a romantic relationship, but I don't get what he means

Intense emotions, strong passions.. 100 on the scale from 0 to 100. Don’t really know how else to explain it. Lol if you’ve dealt with a Scorpio before then you probably have an idea.

Well both my parents are Scorpio Suns, but I don't want to think they're the norm/representing majority of Scorpios. That's why I'm here to ask. My mother has narcissistic personality disorder and other mental health issues, and once someone is a narcissist, they'll fit more with the symptoms of narcissism than their astrology placements, in my opinion. Because I've seen it.

I do have to ask is sudden mood swings and sudden outbursts of anger a Scorpio trait, or an upbringing issue?

Kind of a combination… the sudden outburst thing is a result of suppressing emotions and keeping them bottled up until something triggers the release of those emotions. Then it comes out pressurized like an outburst. I know for me, I have learned I have to be mindful about processing my emotions or feelings as they come, instead of bottling them up or suppressing them.

I’ve noticed this with other zodiac signs though, not just Scorpio. So I think it’s more of an upbringing.. like if as a child, if they were taught to suppress their “bad” emotions like anger, they will suppress it until they can’t any more then it all explodes at once.
