What's the best way to detach from a Scorpio? I have had one for about a year as a FWB. What always happens happened...we both caught those "relationship" feelings. We talked about it, but because of the distance and where we are in our lives a relationship is just not feasible at this time. We are both a little possessive though and we need to dial it down. I suggested talking less and not seeing each other often (not even video calls). He didn't like it, but agreed to it.

However, I'm not doing all the mushy texts, emojis, pics,etc. that I was doing before. So he stated that he has started to feel unloved and unwanted. It's just kinda hard to balance. We need to get back to casual and not this emotional space we are in. Anything else I can do? I'm keeping conversations purely casual and sexual. No talk about my day, stuff like that.

I'm a Cap sun, Gem moon. He's a Scorp sun, Libra moon. I'm thinking we should just totally end it.

I am interested though. But just casually. Trying to detach without doing no contact or anything like that. I think I'm on the right track, but trying to rush it. It got a lot more serious than it should have.

I'm a cap with a Scorpio ex and you need to ignore him. I know it's hard but it's for the best. Mine detached from me due to moving away and some emotional stuff. I was sad and angry at first but I'm glad we haven't spoken, gives you a chance to get over each other.

Those feelings are what's killing us. He has alluded to "hanging out" with other females where he is and I have a few guys I talk to, but the other people are nothing serious to us and we aren't having sex with them. They are just locals lol. That's why I'm trying to dial it back...both of us are a little possessive and it's taking away from the fun and friendship we used to have. It has become a relationship without being an actual one.

I can be pretty black and white. I either treat you like my man or a fbuddy. I think you are right Elle, we have to just cut it and see what can be salvaged later...sigh.

Capricorn women always treat me as nothing more than a penis.

It started as a FWB and it worked until those pesky feelings popped up. I want it to be a fun FWB again...

Just take a total break from each other for 2 weeks, then re evaluate how you both feel after this time. This will show you 100% how you both really feel, no calls, texting, no contact x

It will also help you to do other things, meet other people, get on with career goals ect, without having this playing on your minds, you will know you can talk again in 2 weeks time, so it takes the pressure off a little, but you will be surprised how it will show you the reality of the situation, do it as often as you need to over the coming months until you both feel comfortable with whatever relationship you are left with, just a suggestion but I've seen it work x
