Lonely during my Scorpio's retreat...

Hey everyone, it's been such a long time since I've posted here on DXP. My Scorpio is preparing for a lot of life changes (quit drinking/smoking/junk food, begin to exercise again and a new baby due in 3 weeks) and has alas, retreated into himself. It may be the pregnancy hormones, but damn this is so lonely right now! So I turn to you. Let's open up an intense discussion about something. Anything. Freud. Anarchy. What you collect. What you plan to change this new year. Whatever you want. For those of you who remember me, I'm a Gemini with a LOT of Scorpio placements, and for those of you I don't know yet, it's nice to meet you.

Please distract me so I don't get all needy on him, lol.

Does this mean you NEED him to drink, smoke and eat junk food? I mean, although he should have done this from the first day the pregnancy was known, instead waiting 3 weeks before the child is born was late in the game, but I thought it was a good thing..you know..for the baby? This is a huge feat for Scorpio, embrace it and ENCOURAGE him.

@ Rabbit, lol. He does a lot of sweet things for me while I'm at work (made bath oils and cooks dinner, etc), so I totally feel loved and all. But he has closed himself off for the most part, so there hasn't been a lot of emotional or physical connection these past few weeks, and it's taking its toll on me.

@ LetItBe, I challenged him in the summer to quit drinking and start exercising, and I would quit eating junk food and start exercising. We used to both model, but good southern food and a tendency to over-indulge when drinking became his physical downfall, and a love of junk food and 3 pregnancies became mine. Shortly after we both agreed to the challenge, I found out I was pregnant this third time. We did pretty decent with our agreement but agreed to enjoy ourselves during the holidays, guilt free. He's an extremist and made up his mind to quit drinking, smoking, eating unhealthy and to start exercising regularly rather than just quit drinking. He's starting his regime effective tonight for New Year's, and I'll start rigorously exercising when I get the Dr's ok after delivery and recovery. I already eat pretty healthy and got all of the junk food cravings out of my system around Thanksgiving. Anyway, enough about me.

I totally embrace and encourage all of the changes he plans to make. But he's retreated into himself, I suppose to prepare for his next 'regeneration.' He doesn't go through this too frequently, but for a chatty Gemini like myself, it gets rather boring. In the past I didn't fully understand his needs, DXP helps a lot with that. But as I've got needs to, I'm turning to DXP to distract me so I don't smother him, lol.

And a vibrator. A vibrator definitely helps with some particular needs of mine. 😉
