ive always heard/read that scorps and virgos are very good in relationships together, but what, if anything, would be the thing that really dooms the relationship?

I keep reading contradicting information about virgo/scorpio compatiblility, and the overall virgo descriptions vary as well. Why are all the websites so different? It's almost as if all virgos are different or people perceive us differently. Is it the dual personality thing?

Back on the topic, I can mentally relate to most scorps and can feel their emotions easily. A very connecting feeling (especially for me) as I very rarely care how other people feel. That's just me.

I've had a couple of relationships with Virgos and while I will always remember them in a mostly fond way, I think the overall downfall was my need for a leeeeeetle bit more demonstrativeness (is that a word? Will one of the Virgos please let me know?🙂) - and their (maybe it's just some of the males') need to have things their way. I wouldn't necessarily call them controlling, but I would say that someone has to relinquish some of the power in this relationship, and somehow it was usually, mostly me who did that. 😛

Virgos can be very black and white. So are Scorpios, but in a different way. In relationships/matters of emotion, I like to explore lots of gray.

Hi guys, sorry for reviving this old topic, but I just had to add my version of the story, after coming out of a 5.5 year relationship with a rather Virgo sun/Aquarius moon.

We were almost the perfect couple. Almost. Conversations flowed easily, our mental wavelengths were perfectly in sync, we enjoyed our gossip sessions very much (like two mean old gals), and we made time regularly for all sorts of activities together, and with friends.

Our downfall though, would have to be his passivity, and his (lack of) passion. After the initial 'courtship' period, he became too detached emotionally, too calm, and too undemanding. I was always the one initiating the hugs and kisses, the one asking why he never got jealous EVER (a grand total of 2 jealous fits in 5.5 years, if a cold, icy glare and a day of silent treatment could be counted as a jealous fit). (I was the jealous one, on the other hand, and the only time he got mad was when he couldn't stand MY jealousy any longer.)

I was also the one who wanted desperately to surrender to love and I wanted to GIVE and give (my Pisces moon perhaps?), but never once did he expect to receive anything from me emotionally. I would gladly have rained affection on him if he'd complain about a lack of it (as my Aries is currently doing), and I would have taken pleasure sitting him down, and giving him assurance that I still loved him very much. Instead he was just so infuriatingly 'grown-up' and satisfied with what we had, and we just seemed to stop growing. I eventually numbed myself and I was so used to the numbness that I just...stopped loving him altogether.

I'm still saddened, because he has always been the best friend I could have, and in his own quiet and steadfast Virgo way - even towards the end - he showed me what truly selfless, and unconditional love was. Something I think, I might not have a chance to experience again, in a long time.

I'm a virgo and two of my ex's were scorpios, and my current boyfriend is a scorpio. We are very compatible with each other, I think some virgo woman can make scorpio guys open up and feel trusting because virgo woman tend to be very loyal and honest. And when i am with a scorpio communication is exceptional, it can go on for hours. Also sex between scorpio and virgo can be HOT! to say the least...
