Too funny. At first glance it would make sense to dump him and yes it does signal a lack of confidence maybe, but scarification - too deep antibling. There are so many other wonderful qualities to him. He's highly intelligent, sexy, hardworking, goal oriented, articulate, creative and has mad lovemaking skills. But he has that one quality that can bring out the worst in we fellow scorps. Oh and did I memtion that he will freak if I flirted or if anyone showed a wee bit too much of an interest in me.

"You dump that libra "

LOL

"What do you do with a lover that needs to be seen and will flirt just to get attention?"

1) Put on your best "I will conquer" outfit, snazz it up, take them out, and start your own little flirt party (one they don't get an invitation to). But, most importantly (key ingredient), thoroughly enjoy every second of it (the flirting and attention)... πŸ˜‰

2) Try to explain your feelings and reasons for this being something you dislike and try to find an acceptable compromise that allows them their ego boost without making you uncomfortable.

3) Dump them and find someone who will play by the rules...

4) Suck it up, and accept it.

That's all I could come up with...

Oh, scratch #1, or don't... πŸ˜‰

Given your response, perhaps #2 or #4?!? Sorry not much help here.

Alcheme,

I like #2 "acceptable compromise" that allows him his ego boost. It really is part of his MO. No changing it. I just have to make sure that we don't ruin each other. He has a lot of Gemini and Leo in his chart. I understand that he craves variety and freedom, but so do I. There is nothing dull about this man. If it were to go anywhere it would be what you'd call an unconventional relationship.

have you considered that these are bad signs in anybody? he could be projecting his own infidelities on you.

Lady M,

There is only one Sweet Pea dollπŸ™‚ Another virgo I'm afraid. But like I said, he has a bunch of Gemini and Leo. This behavior is so uncharacteristic of what I've been learning about virgo's. He has all the goodies of a virgo but a huge dose of other influences.

Fiddlesticks,

You have a point, It is a quality that concerns me. That's why I bring it to you to help me work it out - outside of my head. In a way I see it as an opportunity to confront my issues with posessiveness. To work on releasing. Does that make any sense?

well,

working on possessiveness is one thing... as long as you're sure that this is a harmless concern that needs to be addressed purely on your end and not something that is potentially a larger and more serious issue.

Oops, correction "possessiveness". By no means is this behavior harmless. I am checking to see just how deep it goes. I'm also looking closely at the areas where I can enhance and compliment him with my qualities. Still learning him - I guess.

Hey,

Since I have your ear, tell me what you think about open relationships from a scorps perspective. I don't mean sharing - I'm too fixed for that, but I mean being able to share your private little stories.
