Is this alarming or normal?

I have a great companion in what seems to be a TRUE Scorpio to his heart. He is actually a great guy, we laugh together, discuss issues of politics, agree to disagree, everything is ultimately good. Except, when he travels. He and I often take short/long trips usually every month together but every now and then our schedules will not permit for us to spend time with one another and he will take a trip by himself or with friends. I feel this is healthy but what I haven't been able to figure out is how someone can just vanish for 3 days or a week and become so engulfed in himself without a simple "good morning" or "how are you doing" text. Our relationship is fun, highly sexual, often intense whether we are juggling work, family and friends; but we always have time for each other daily. We talk and/or text daily (often several times a day), go out dancing, cook dinner together; I can go on and on with the benefits of our 6 month relationship. Don't get me wrong, every now and then we have small obstacles to overcome, nothing out of the ordinary of a Virgo/Scorpio combination but nothing earth shattering. I on the other hand will not stop communication with him while on a trip, whether I am in the country or out. He on the other hand, gets on a plane like he is living a fantasy to escape and I will hear from him just before boarding the plane, once he arrives and not until he returns. Is this normal for my Scorpio man or should I be alarmed?

I think you should freak out about it.



Because it's perfectly normal to hold another person to expectations and if they don't abide by what you expect of them, then you should by all means confuse your head to the point of doubt.


Asking stupid questions always helps, so maybe you should ask another stupid one.

perhaps he has technical explanation as to why he cannot contact you during his times away. My cell phone doesn't work outside the country. Sometimes I don't have the internet. And sometimes it is not practical to run around and look for these depending on the country, because I am also sure that the person I care for knows I care for him.

You should ask him why he cuts contact with you when he is away. Just for your own peace of mind, see what he says.

The most negative explanation I can come up with is that he might be married somewhere.

I dated married men without knowing. A common pattern I discovered was they never contact you on the weekends while with family.

You have to find that out for yourself.

It has become obvious to me that I am missing something in my life. And what that is is patriotism.

Seriously: zealots, America is JUST a country. Hell, I have more respect for psycho fans who try to run over D-List celebrities that are going out with their idols. At least they're craziness is over a living, breathing HUMAN BEING.

You didn't CREATE America. Your forefathers and my forefathers did.

So why are you so fuggin crazy about it? I mean, telling you I'm from a developing country would probably make you go "THAT'S why he finds it a bit odd ... f**king TREE DWELLER!" but there is a line between patriotism and fanatism and you've kind of crossed it.

America is a great place, I'm sure, and it's reach on the rest of the world CANNOT BE DENIED.

But, you know, you're your own person in a world full of billions and you've got a life to live and NO ONE, let alone "America" the place, will live it for you.

So what's with the nuttiness over a piece of a map?!

Lovers need a vacation too...It's normal for him, doesn't matter if it's normal for anyone else.

leftist rightist who gives a shit there all the same...opposames pretending to be against one another but with enough money and political pull they will sell out in a hot second, government can't be trusted and if they can't be trusted then who do you trust....yourselves, trust yourselves to do what's right not only for yourselves but for the people that are being left behind, if we don't stand for something we fall for anything.
