Blindsided by a Scorpio/Rat

So...the strange subject that is this man happens to be a Scorpio/Rat. For the sake of context, I myself am a Cancer/Dragon woman and the mutual friend of ours is a classy Capricorn/Pig lady. My college classmate (the Capricorn/Pig) is someone I'm very protective of and she ended up in an abusive relationship this past year. As soon as she admitted her bruises were because her boyfriend hit her, I offered her a room in my apartment so she could leave; and she took me up on my offer. This Scorpio man I mentioned is a childhood friend of hers, but he and I never really succeeded in breaking the ice, so when he visits her, I've just been polite and I mind my own business unless I can't resist a witty comment.

My Capricorn buddy had not been my roommate for long before her abusive-ex kicked the door in one night while we were eating. He had a knife out, I got between them, took the hit, and held on so he couldn't get another go at her. She called the cops and I was sent to the hospital. She and her Scorpio friend visited pretty much everyday, but he really didn't say anything. When I came home, I started noticing that over this past week, this Scorp guy has started coming to visit much earlier than when our Capricorn friend gets off work and said he was there to help me out with the chores.

The first day of this, he wasted no time getting to the nitty-gritty of the knife incident. I explained my reasoning and regardless of that, it was the right thing to do. This pretty much ended with me in tears and I typically make it a point not to show anyone what a cry baby I can be. He was understanding, but made no real approach for comfort; he just thanked me and we left it at that.

Since then we've found we have similar interests, and not just vicariously through our friend: he openly griped one day about a bill he was not expecting and I handed him fifty dollars to take care of it. I told him I don't care if he can't pay me back, my wages aren't paltry. He wanted to argue, and I'm stubborn, so I ended up stuffing it in his coat pocket when he wasn't looking; to which he noticed before he left and gave me a pissed-off look, but didn't say anything else and I didn't rub it in.

Yesterday, he was over and was helping me put away dishes and I look up to see him staring at me. I stared back annnnd blam, he made out with me for several minutes. We stopped, our Cap friend came home, and things went back to normal. My Capricorn roomie turned-in early and he pinned me on couch and started marathon kissing me again, then he stares at me a bit, I make a perverted remark, he laughs and leaves.

I'm liking this so far and it's been years since any guy's taken an interest in me. Our Capricorn friend seems delighted from what told her.

But um...is this pretty typical as far as Scorpio/Rat man courtship goes, or is this just a hook-up play? I don't want to piss him off by asking, but I have no clue what to expect with him; I didn't see t

Just talk to him..be open and communicate..

I would say, try going on a date before asking about hook up play. Everyone so impatient to know 'is it real' or 'is it just sex' before the race has even started. There isn't anyway to know at the start, the funniest thing I ever heard of was a Scorpio prowling, only to get caught up in his own net. But then that could be most guys. I would just enjoy the attention, and use the time to explore who this Scorpio really is. What ultimately matters is if you end up, really, really, liking him, then we have a concern, but I have faith in you Cancer.

We got this.


now Virgos that's a breed that'll fuk your brains and leave you wanting to commit suicide-murder

Virgos are easy to handle. When a Virgo leaves you, he/she thinks they are upgrading. So, you sabotage that way of thinking, and then shove their face into YOUR upgrade. My Virgo Ex, figured he would live happily ever after chasing his Gem side bitch and they would live in our house. She moved to her family instead of taking the job to stay at the same employer as him after my campaign, once I move he can't afford the house AND the 10k debt he has, AND I spent Valentine's day with my new boyfriend and splashed it on Facebook. My younger than he, debt-free, bedroom rockstar boyfriend.

Now he spends his time either at BFFs or at the house drinking beer and listening to love songs. LOL @ Virgos being hard to punish.

like me treetruking a rockstar boyfriend is about my happiness, i wouldn't think about my ex

by that time im done with my ex

that's where i need to be


no emotions. no hate. no love. nothing


i envy you in that regard.


i just want to be done with any feels...

It's an Aqua thing to find it easy to move on since we compartmentalize so much. Sometimes it's great, sometimes not so awesome. But its also my Mars in Cancer that makes me so happy to see a traitor in pain.

Take the bull by the horns, sometimes the only way to get over someone is to get under someone else.

What does this mean "after my campaign,"

OK you have to go into this explanation knowing that I helped him raise his kids and was there for my family for 8 years. From when they were 15/16 and their mother left for the Army Reserves and Nursing School. I am in fact, Facebook friends with her, we've always gotten along. Virgo man was careless, he let it slip the side chick from work had jealousy issues, AND I hacked his phone, been reading their text messages, up until I dove head first with my current boyfriend.

So, I tagged him in our family things (My Ex, my stepson and I still live in the house, I cooked, made special birthday dinners, there were Christmas and Thanksgiving). Finally after posting about our Sunday Night NFL PJ party, she blew her stack and told him never to contact her again, that he was lying to her and he and i were still together. He drank 10 beers before grabbing his nutsack and coming for me. I gave him my usual confused airy Aqua look like I had no idea what he was talking about. Next thing I know, instead of taking another position in the company after her division was shut down, she moved 4 hours away to mom's house. She stopped liking his pictures on Facebook, who knows if they still talk, now that I have someone else to occupy my time, #nofucksgiven.

*blows on fingers*

Um...wow. o___o

This thing gets more notifications than I ever got on Facebook. Okay...let me try to catch up.

I assume from experience that he might be pissed since when I get inquisitive about something, I probe more than people find appropriate. (innuendo not intended, but now I'm finding it entertaining.)

No, I'm not a man...at least since the last time I checked.

Gennie and SensitiveBlues...your posts are amazing.

Yes...he came back and brought a bottle of whiskey I bring home all the time, so I guess he's noticed I frequent that drink. ...more lip action, but he had to leave early tonight. He sniffed me...which is creepy in a good way. The whiskey threw me off...I think he's been thinking about this longer than I thought he was thinking about this. My roommate is just making fun of how blown away I am about attention.

I did not expect this much feedback, by the way. Thank you all and sorry for those I missed.

This forum gets chatty, I used to just be a lurker.

@sensitiveblues - Funny, my Scorpio rockstar has asked me that same question. But I spend 5 nights out of the week at Scorpies place, and 2 nights at the house so if my Ex wants to romance me, he has no time to do it in. Nor would it be welcome. It's the Virgo mid-life crisis thing, I don't like the drinking, and wanting to be out till 11pm 3-4 times a week. But the best mood killer, is that I remember what the Gem's perfume smells like on my Ex, and I throw up in my mouth a little at the thought of being close to him.

@goofball - Sniffing? Oh yeah, prepare for the "How long has he been studying me??" feeling. Thing is, you scored big points by being Cap lady's defender, on an emotional level for him. He's not gonna treat you like some random hook up, UNLESS you go there first. So enjoy the attention, enjoy the man, reeeeaaaalllly enjoy the man *giggles*
