I am a Pisces who was in a short term relationship with a Scorpio. I want him back....

We were only in a relationship for 2 months. The downside is we would bicker about useless things. He really liked me. Every time we would bicker he would claim "this isn't sustainable" but then never leave. It seemed like manipulation but I don't know. Also it was bad timing as it was the last month of the semester. However the good times were really good. I broke it off with him 2 weeks ago. I foolishly sat down and told him I liked him maybe more than he liked me. Maybe love I don't know because I have never felt this way. He said he really liked me but he doesn't think he loves me...which I said is fair because we only were together for 2 months. He said he doesn't want a relationship, although I said that earlier. While this was happening he was calling me pet names.

He really wants to be friends and kept inviting me out with him to go to parties. He also seems really interested in getting to know 'my' friends. Because before everything was more about his friends. When he saw me he acted invested in what I was doing to which I responded. But I did text him I need my space until after the break. I have gone on many relationship forums that have said no contact is no good for short-term however...Christmas break is Christmas break...and we weren't planning on seeing each other during Christmas break in the first place because we live in different areas.

He really liked me and tried to make it work. But I think he thought I was dependent on him. Which isn't the case. I think I need to make it work.

While no one can say for sure what this guy is thinking, I can give you a little insight from my experience with Scorpio (5 years now). (Please note, the age of a Scorpio man says a lot. Not sure how old yours is, but Scorpio men seem to go through two stages in their adult dating life. I am speaking about my mature Scorpio)

First, I would ask what do you mean by "relationship"? You say you were in a relationship for 2 months (though in your previous thread, you said you dated for 1 month). Then you said he told you he doesn't want a relationship (and you said that to him).. so it's confusing as to what was actually going on with the two of you. Please clarify.

Moving on. When you talked about bickering and him saying this is not sustainable, this is not him being manipulative. This is him telling you that constantly bickering is going to ruin your relationship. There are greater things going on in his world, and this is a waste of time and energy. Scorpios want you to enrich their life, be their pleasurable escape. They like to enjoy all of the wonderful pleasures, finer things in life, and to constantly bicker about petty little things, (especially with someone new, with little investment, and someone he doesn't love), just ruins it! If you are going through something REAL, they can be the most supportive and encouraging people, but otherwise, you are just showing your immaturity to them. They want someone who is kind, and positive, and can stand on their own two feet. He wants someone he can respect.

You broke it off with him, giving him the reason that you feel stronger for him than he feels for you. Ok, a Scorpio man will not tell you he loves you if he doesn't (again, a mature one who knows himself). And even if they do love you, they will not tell you all the time. They feel deeply, but they express that by being there for you, encouraging you, and through physical expression. You ruined this, by not allowing him to develop his feelings. You gave up, and if there's one thing Scorpio wants, it's someone who will be there through thick and thin. Someone he can trust, so that he feels comfortable to slowly open up to you. You broke that trust by leaving him, for a reason that makes no sense at all! You are unpredictable, immature, and will probably never get the opportunity to build that trust again.

If you wanted to make it work, you would have stayed, listened to him, and worked toward something real. Instead you left. You don't know what you want, and again, this is not what a Scorpio wants! I really don't think you have much of a chance to get him back. Maybe if you decide to be friends, dial back the crazy, and spend the next few YEARS proving why you are worth trusting. But otherwise, I don't see this working.

He said he loved me within one week of meeting him. I felt we were on edge and it wasn't a good time during finals and consuming too much of each other's time. Yes, I do need my space. One reason is also that he was not emotionally supportive. I am not going to pretend he was very emotionally supportive because he was not.

I do want him back. I just need advice on how to get him back.

Also, he has a difficult time communicating when it comes to people's emotions--not just mine. Even after our post-breakup talk it seemed more of a passive-aggressive game of who could hurt the other more it seemed about power. He hasn't even had time to digest the breakup. At least not of last Friday.

During this post break up talk he was calling me pet names, holding my thigh, saying he wanted to kiss me. Then saying he doesn't want a relationship and we should just be friends--but we'll see and that he really likes me but doesn't love me--after 2 days prior saying he loved me. Then after this talk at 3AM sends me a picture of him and a teddy bear I got him.

I am not innocent and I can take accountability but this is the situation.

I told him I need space until after Christmas break. I need to work on myself. But I agree with everything you said about him not giving up but I was the one who gave up because I *do* need to get my two feet on the ground.

Okay thank you I understand. However, I do want him back.

I do need my space though.

I would like to rebuild trust.
