Early stages of dating a Scorpio man often involve intense emotional connection and gradual trust building. He may be cautious and protective, especially if past friendships or experiences influence his behavior. Understanding his need for depth and honesty can help foster a stronger relationship from the start.

Wouldn't call that dating.
As a fellow Fish, I'm also new to the Scorp gaming thing myself so I don't know how much help I can be.
I'm currently dealing with two of them. One is the cautious type, protective of his heart. The other just wants to fuck away the rejection he felt from another.
Yours sounds like he just wanted to get into your pants and then feigned heartbreak when he thought you boofed his friend. Tell him to get the fuck over it and act his age.
The way I smooth things out with my Scorps is I keep everything 100% real. No games of any kind, just pure honesty about where I'm going and how I'm feeling about things.
I only care about one of them, but I don't like to string people along so I maintain the same level of honesty with the other one as well. And #2 was honest enough with me as well, just wanted some no-strings distracting fun. But both me and #1 have trust issues. I also recently ended my relationship to someone I considered to be the love of my life, so I'm definitely not ready to go exclusive again. Too young, too pretty 😁
You need to figure out what you REALLY want. And then relay that to him. If he's capable of adult thought process, he should realize that you're being real with him. If he ain't mature enough to deal with it, give him the Christmas Worm + tell him to go fuck himself with it.

Yes, it is a dildo with Xmas decorations.
Good luck!
I'd say he's cautious because of what happened between you two in the past. It's cliché but they do take a long time to let go of past grudges. He may like you but from what you wrote he may still be taking his time to decide if you're trustworthy. We all know trust is a huge deal for Scorpios to even pursue someone.
From my experience, yes they do like to take things slow which isn't a problem due to me being very Earthy. Patience is the key. Just let it unfold naturally. 😊
thanks so much!
You made out with his best friend while involved with him? More than likely he is just going to hit it and quit because they don't forget when slighted. A Scorpio man needs to trust his woman. You've shown what you will do.
this scorpio is not that interested.
if he were, he would make it known & show you. i dont think he is just “taking it slow”.

he’s been trying to reconnect for a year or two & literally said to me “i was soooo happy when you messaged me”
ya but he literally isnt following thru with actions so... ? he hasnt contacted you for 5 days, knowing you are in the same town for a short time period.
talk is cheap my friend & honestly, scorpios are fairly action oriented.

yeahh, that’s true. i’ll probably stop investing my energy..whatever, it was a cool daydream for a few weeks :]
His ex bestie painted you as easy. That's why he's not putting in the effort. He figures if you want the D you'll come knocking.

look, i know it sucks to talk to someone who lays it on thick then disappears when push comes to shove. he may even try coming back around, once he notices you’ve stopped putting energy into him.
maybe he’ll come around toward the end of your trip. maybe he’ll come around when you are back in your town. either way, i do think donnalibra is correct in her assessment. it smells like hit & quit.
