He is poison.
Been down this road full force for about 1 year with two scorps. A fling that lead to a total breakdown between friends or supposed friends. The second I moved heaven and earth for, and of course it only shackled me to this poison.
I bet scorpios laugh when they read complaints against other scorps. Whatever. Sorry but we have to move on and upward. You want better, deserve better, people change, and you are one of change and ability. Do it for your sanity.

That is SOOOOOOOOO not true. If the Scorp I knew was a mirror he'd be loving me back right about now.
I agree that the OP has asked how to play a game which I would never advocate, but I can tell you that the Scorp I was seeing also brought me to that point and I am NOT a game player by any means. In fact, it was when I started moving in that direction that I knew I had enough.

I have no idea what set him off. I really don't. I am working out of town and have been for a while, but I am not out bar hopping and clubbing at all - not ONCE, I am pretty low key and stay to myself here. I work with a lot of men, and he knows some of them, so he knows I am not fucking around or anything. I get hit on alot, but walk away from those guys.
He is kind of jealous at times and so am I. He is a very handsome man, and I am well aware other women find him very attractive, and he is. But it makes me crazy when he will say "Oh, so-in-so invited me for dinner" then does not say if he went or not, and I hate it, cuz then I want to know if he went, or "This woman left a note on my car" or "That women has been hounding me for a job, asking me out, and Dick (his partner) hired her after I said no" then a few days he will say that he did not hire her. Shit like that. It pisses me off. I don't get it. Why?
He knows I love the heck out of him. Why the games? am I to available? I mean I answer the phone all the time because I am either at work or home. I don't go out - not a safe town I am in, lots of wierd things going on. So I lay low. I have done nothing that I am aware of anyways.
LOL, he probably does it to do what you're doing now.click to expand

Ok. This is based off of me, a scorpio and any experience I had with my scorpio ex husband. remember, we are all different and have different chart aspects. But I'll try my best.
Ok so at what point do the games stop?
They never really stop. Honest. We are so damn vulnerable because in the beginning, we really do give you everything we got. Based on your reaction (even if you pull away or act aloof for a split second) we will start pulling that info away for awhile to see if you are worthy of having it again.
At what point do you figure someone out?
Usually within the first few months. We know you inside and out. We know how you are going to react to us, we know what you are withholding. God forbid we are in tune with astrology because we will have you pegged immediately.
You know the reaction...how many times do you need to see it?
It's ongoing. It just takes one word, one sentence to set us off.
Why do you need to see it?
It makes us feel like you care.
Does it tell you we care?
Yep. We need constant ego stroking. It's not really insecurities we just need to know you have our backs. That you understand us.
What if you ALREADY know that?
We will always question it. Doesn't matter.
So, with that said. How do you STOP it.
Step up and be a complete bitch (man bitch if your scorps a woman). Tell us what you feel IN YOUR HEART and tell us WHERE YOU STAND. Then step back and STAY consistent. No wishy washy bullshit because WE WILL be watching you with a very keen eye to make sure your words match your actions.
You don't react to our petty games and we are like WTF—?!!!!! Yeah, we do a double take because we can play people like puppets. For someone to say...woah, wait a minute, I KNOW what you are doing. That will stop us dead in our tracks.
Stop answering his calls. Don't respond to his texts. Set a term and follow thru with it. Don't faulter by sleeping with his ass or entertaining his bullshit. We'll lose respect REAL fast.
Why do you think I was (still am) so hung up on that damn capricorn? Because the fucker doesn't take any shit from me. That is why.

Ooooh, YES! I too would like to know the story heroic guy! Particulary since Im always cheering when reading your posts!
Its only fair that you help us all understand your perspective since you're always foaming at the mouth about Scorpios! (No disrespect...I truly share your foam. Ew.) 😄

Imagine if you will.. a motherfucker who is willing to mow down an entire civilization if you piss him off.. but breaks down and cries if a girl rejected him. Thats a Scorpio 😛
*pets Skyko*
I don't know if that applies to girls, but certainly the smell better

he doesn't trust her and she knows why.

I have no idea why he would not trust me and do not believe for a minute that is the issue, I KNOW without a doubt he trusts me, and I find that statement rather odd and a bit harsh. You seem hell bent on putting this problem I am having with his games on ME ellessque, I am not a liar, and I have never been a fickle flirtatious woman, quite the opposite. If anything I am a bit standoffish with people, I am friendly, but I stay to myself.
I can be perfectly fine on my own, I make a decent living, and take care of myself, and my business. The friends I have, are life long friends, I have no use for superficial cocktail party talk and butt kissing or people who think after they have a drink or two, you are their best friend and start spilling to me all the mundane stories of their lives. I find it rather crass, and boring.
The topic of this was what is with the games Scorpio men play? and Why! THAT is the issue. I am new to this Sign thing, and find it quite interesting how accurate it can be, my question was asked in earnest to try and understand it, I accept the fact that Scorpios needs space at times, fine, go do your thing, I will do the same, and I usually do, however the area I am in is dangerous and I have no use for the trash population and their drinking, drug fueled, life style .
The question was Why— I admit I was upset and irritated yesterday, so what? This is an excellent forum to vent and discuss with out us truly knowing each other, rather a fun way to learn about things from a variety of peoples knowledge and experiences and even wisdom. I just want to understand the need for game playing and I think I get it.
Now, I have to think about how I am going to deal with the 'tests' as these games are called. It is kind of 'little boy' in its obvious ploy. That I see now, so with out damaging that little boy or insulting the man, I need to think on how I am going to deal with this.
good. your pissed now.
you need to copy, paste and send that to his ass.click to expand

bethann, i used to do the same thing your guy is doing. by letting you know about all the women who hit on him with these stories, he's reminding you that he is desirable and could be with someone else. it's basically a subtle, passive-aggressive warning for you not to fuck up.

he doesn't trust her and she knows why.
i'm not so sure she knows why, unless there was some unresolved issue she hasn't mentioned. my scorp knows i won't cheat, but he still worries. i asked him once if i actually ever gave him a reason not to trust me or feel insecure with me and he admitted no, but knowing that other men chase me is enough to set him off sometimes.
Posted by exoskeleton
though sometimes if he was pissing me off or i had been feeling insecure with him, i'd go on and on with the stories just to get a rise out of him.click to expand

shadows, you totally got me. I was like WTF— that doesn't sound like bri.
hahahahahahaha 😄

Posted by ellessque
also...take note that exo is with another scorp. those are conversation two scorps HAVE to have to stay together. Exo has clearly let down her guard and has given up control. That is the ONLY way two scorps will EVER make it. It doesn't necessarily have to be the woman but it has to be one of them. That is why I said they had a healthy relationship. Not on this thread alone...but on the consistency of her posts.
