I'm an Aries. How to befriend A Scorpio Woman?

There's this Scorpio woman I know on the internet for some months. We're both artists and are in the same fandom. When I complimented her works the first time, she said she was flattered and actually liking my artworks too, and that she wanted to support me. From then on, we often chatted from time to time, mostly about fandom. And my interest towards her grew bigger. I want to be closer with her as true friend, not just as strangers on the internet. But it seems the feeling was only one-sided. There was two times she left the chat midway, something that clearly hinted she's not interested in the talk. But I still insisted. So I told her my actual intention that I want to be her friend, and if I ever made her uncomfortable or any sort, I was sorry, and that I wanted to be closer to her and get to know her better personally. She said she was happy about my message and that she thought about wanting to get along better with me, too. I tried to initiate small talks after that. Asking her favorite food, her hobbies, favorite movies, yadda yadda. I carefully picked topics that aren't too private and she willingly responded, and sounded happy too. I found out that she's the typical scorpio in terms of loving anything supernatural like horror movies or youkai exhibition. But I actually was kinda surprised knowing that at first because my image of her is childish and bubbly, and I told her that. She laughed and said that was the first time someone told her that, and she said thank you. And I impulsively replied;

"That was the first time? Really? Cuz I think you're cute."

And SHE AVOIDED RESPONDING TO THAT ONE. Yeah, stupid me and Aries's impulsiveness.

She even ignored my chat for hours before finally replied again, and this time only talks about other topics like what she studies on art school or about the horror manga that she loves... I honestly regretting that one but I don't know what I should say. If I apologized for calling her cute wouldn't that turns her off even more?

Do you guys think I still have chance? Was she probably mistaking me for trying to flirt with her? What should I do?? It was really hard for me not to coming on too strong for her but I'm really trying my best to hold myself back. I respect her privacies. I really adore her and genuinely wants to be her friend.

Bruh, you are completely dense. The fact that she continued responding means she's essentially giving you the chance to let it be what it was. To let it blow over. So yeah, don't do ANYTHING, and don't do things that can be construed as flirting from now on.

If you have those feelings, and you're just trying to cover it up by acting like you just want to be friends. Then you need to take things REAL slow. Human relationships don't happen at the snap of a finger, stop blaming the fact that you are an aries. It's still very much so, a treetrunkboyish/stalker kind of energy.


So either way, just... chill. I cannot stress that enough.

Indeed, I am completely dense.... I won't deny that it was a stupid move. It was my bad and I did without thinking. and to tip toe over someone's feeling like this is really beyond my comfort zone. I'm trying really, REALLY hard.

And no, I don't have those feelings towards her. I genuinely only want her to be my friend.

So you think it's alright to keep talking to her like usual?

I don't get it, if you want to just be friends with her and that is your intent, then why are you doing so many neurotic things that aren't friend like?

Here's the thing, we know when someone just wants to be friends, and when someone is doing things under the guise of friendship. Your post, screams ulterior motives. A friend doesn't sit here and worry about the things you do. It comes off as very calculated in a facade of just "being friends".

Scorpio moon female here.

I read your post and it sounds like you want to make a romantic connection with her and...youre pushy about it.

Friendships are organic.

As a pluto person, I would definitely put you on ice for a while until I felt like you were over some kinda crush.

New friendships or whatever I am apprehensive about them. Especially interesting rhe Arts world. Shes probably been burned in the past and proceeds lightly.

Slow down with all those frilly words.

Cute, etc

Scorpio women are shady.

Avoid at all costs.

Oh, because Scorpio men are angels, perhaps ?

This happens to me a lot, I see somebody and I'm like.... We could be really good friends. Then it feels like I'm tryna chat them up, laugh at all their jokes etc... Then I'm like, am I being creepy? Then I get paranoid and wonder if I should explain that I'm not a lesbian... 🤔
So yeah, I've no advice for you, sorry.

I wouldn't sweat it. She either 1) doesn't take compliments well. 2) was a bit taken back and didn't want to lead the convo in that direction, so changed the subject. Just carry on as you were.

You guys totally get it. It was an excitement in spur of the moment. And we Arians are naturally flirtatious, it doesn't mean I like her romantically.

I agree with @DMV.
Not all ppl are that open to flattery and Scorpio women specifically aren't.
I feel that you are intrigued by this lady as she's giving you attention but on her terms and perhaps you aren't liking it

Friendships of whatever relationships in Scorpio terms are always assessed as "Why is someone doing that I.e. what's the motive" probably that's what a going through her mind.

Also if she's a proper Scorpio I think you are too available to her and not a challenge to go after. Sorry but you need to give her space if she's bothered she'll get in touch if she's not then on to next one, pal

Also just because you are getting replies from her don't mean she's into you, she just is polite maybe due to you both being same field I.e. art

At the very least, I don't want to leave a bad impression. 😢

Tbh, the main reason why I'm being this anxious is because she's a Scorpio. You guys tend to hide your true feelings while Aries are very literal people. We take anything you guys said even the lies as the truth. I've had bad experience with a Scorpio friend before because of this and that's why I want to be more cautious.

And I genuinely wants to be her friend, nothing else.
