Hi there,

So here is my story. My Scorpio Ex broke up with me months ago but weirdly keeps “coming back” only to then go away again. I basically haven’t had enough patience during these times of him coming back so in the past I have flipped out on him trying to get him back and then he runs away again.

Well this last time he was half in it, again suggesting I go visit him at work but never making it concrete or telling me where his new job is so I lost it on him and told him never to text me again because it hurts too much and that I have always loved him but for him to leave me alone, and blocked him on Facebook.

Fast-forward a month, I see him out at a party. He comes to me with open arms and I just shove my way right past him and ignore him. I know it caused a bit of a ruffle in front of his friends but I was not ready to talk to him... really and truly like ever again. I was so angry at him for being so indecisive before and still hurt. At the end of the party he comes up to me and swoops in and gives me a hug and says a quick “Hi” and then leaves.

After that I couldn’t get him out of my mind! I was finally moving on and dating new people and was happy, which is why I was ignoring him fully at the party to stay away, but now after that hug I am back in it and the new guys I was dating mean nothing. I truly feel that he is my soul mate and I miss him everyday… especially after him forcing me to acknowledge him. Since then I have seen him out twice. He always comes up to me and says hi and says bye, but when I try to engage him in conversation it is very awkward and he won’t ask me a think about my life, as I ask him about his. That was a big reason our relationship failed the first time was I never asked him about his day. I have been working on this and now ask him and everyone else more questions about themselves. I acted selfishly before without realizing. Anywho, this last time I saw him it was after his birthday weekend and I dropped a card off at his door like he has done with me before to break the ice. When he had done so before it led to us dating. He texted me and thanked me for the card, however when I saw him out the next day he again said hi and bye but really didn’t seem interested in talking more to me and even dismissed me when I tried to tell him something as he was leaving.

Please help I just dont get it! Why go out of your way to push yourself back into my life when I clearly asked you to stay away, and clearly didn’t want to communicate when I first saw him out after I blocked him etc. He snuck in there and forced that hug onto me! Why do that then act so disinterested but stare at me?? And let me tell you he stares!! Its that good ‘ol Scoprio obsessive stare.. and it can be a little hard to act normal when you know someone is looking at your every move.

My heart hurts now yet again, and I long for him. I just want him to act nicely to me again and I’m upset I may have missed my c

If you read I told him to leave me alone and he forced that hug onto me when he knew I told him I wanted nothing to do with him anymore. And makes sure to say hi and bye to me every time. Lingers around where i am standing and watches me like no other. Now Im hooked again bc i remember our love and miss him so much. I gave him the card to try and get rid of hard feelings but now hes even colder.

Well I closed it, but he couldn't take no for an answer. That day I walked past him he was actually trying to be super nice and friendly to me. Since then he has had walls up, even though HE forced me to acknowledge him again. He just couldn't be ignored by me. I feel like he is observing me and testing me to see if Ive really changed. I mean he even tested me at the second party, pretended to leave to see if I would look for him. Then I did look for him, and in the past would have left sad... but instead I stayed at the party and he shows back up. Stands right in front of me for another 5 minutes, then leaves and only says bye to me. All of his friend left, but he stayed to watch and observe me

I don't think cutting him off completely is the right move. Every time I do that yes he comes back. I think deep down he loves me but I feel like he needs to see Ive changed and am willing to let him take the lead and do what he wants to do rather than attempt to control him like I used to do. We have to stop the war. He tried to stop the war 3 weeks ago, but I wasnt ready. Now I am ready but now hes not. He needs time to get over that I ignored him so meanly 3 weeks ago I think, and caused a bit of a scene.

No one can force you to do.anything, short of tying you up.. and even then you can usually still make them work for it. Intense eye contact does not count as brute force.

I understand if you still have feelings for him. But *your* feelings do not constitute *him* forcing anything from you.

He's responsible for his actions. You are responsible for your reactions.

Smh thats exactly what he's doing…to make sure you still care.

I've done almost the same thing. I was at a party with the guy I was dating, but we were going thru a rocky phase at that point and weren't really speaking. And I kept leaving and coming back in and out of the party as if I were getting phone calls/text (which i wasn't). Just to see if he would follow me or come ask me whats up. Which he didn't lol. It was petty of me. But that was my way of trying to get his attention, without trying to show that I cared, instead of actually talking to him.

Sounds like he just wants to know that he can get your attention when he wants it. Which…sounds like its working.

If you want him back, say it ONCE loud and clear and straight up ask him does he want the same thing.
If he wants it, he'll be loud and clear about it.
If not, he'll keep playing this little game and he won't stop until he feels like it.

I wish I had just let him be nice to me when he was trying.... ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh since that point hes been so cold
Lol don't sound so supine.
Scorpios aren't hard to win back, if you approach it the right way.

Apologize, explain and let him know what you've learned from the experience.
Scorpio appreciates thoughtful, personal gestures.
Tell him how important he is to you. Nothing is lightweight for a Scorpio.

I tested him that day too to see if he still cared. Went dancing on the speaker behind him. He kept looking for me all over the place! He did it this last weekend too. He likes tome the one observing me, not the other way around. Hes crazy.I think hes still attached but like needs it to go slow i guess. When I blocked him it really hurt him I know... He is sensitive. It just sucks, I don't want the war anymore. And yes now he knows I care. I don't think he is truly vindictive... I didnt wrong him so hard.

I know we are emotional as all hell... messes. Yeah he likes me but not enough, I think he's afraid of getting involved or too close again and it getting bad again. So I will just show him he can trust me again. Its going to be a while. blahhhhhhh 😢 When he hugged me after I had cut him out I knew he wasnt done with me. Why else would you do that. Now it will jst take some time for him to want to embrace me happily again like he did before I ignored him so hard core. I was just so angry still FUCK

Ugh it's just freakin messy! I don't want to hurt him anymore. But I think now he does a little for hurting him when he was ready to reconnect. So now I am backing down and just going to keep being nice until he is ready to let it go. Earlier I was so hurt by his treatment of me this past weekend I was on the brink of being mad and hating again, but if it keeps going back and forth like that it's just going to never end like your saying. So now I am the one to officially and forever back down. Someone has to do it! And he did it before but I wasn't ready, so I can't take his bs and still be love. He will get over his hurt eventually, just takes water signs a while. I have fuckig Scorpio in my VII house, of relationships, so I get it... Clearly

Jc. You water signs. I love you but man..

Where the fuck is my zoolander gif.!!!?
Oh no. I refuse to be lumped into this f*ckery of hide and seek being discussed here. The whole things sound like a lot of nonsense. You pull that freak out tantrum on me you can guarantee I will never acknowledge your existence again. You want to be left alone? Done.

As you were...

He does react well when I tell him what he means to me etc. I will have to write him yet another letter, and apologize for ignoring him at the party and explain why I was doing it. I will need to wait a bit as I just gave him a bday card. It said nothing sentimental in it. Just wanted to return the favor.
If you can not let go, then dont write another letter IMHO, but at the next party go to him and hug him...... try to be with him personally, dance with him, etc...

if he refuses, try again in the next party....... after this, if he refuses,then you will know you have to let him go

Control he wants the control over you , to choose when he wants to acknowledge your resistance and ignore when he feels like it.

It's ultimate selfishness ...

Agreed, Im sure he is not the right man for me. Although he seemed to love me, how he is treating me now definitely shows otherwise and is messed up. I should not be controlled. He had is chance, but I believe now he has lost it. At one point I would have let him have all of me but now thinking about all of this and the reality of his controlling energy its a bit sickening. Had he loved me yes he could have every bit of my being which is what he wanted, but now he doesn't ever deserve itl. I hope I find someone else who gives me butterflies as he did.
