Posted by PeanutButterandEllySomewhere, along the way, I think I let them or allowed them to diminish the value I had in myself. Somehow, I let their warped mentality infiltrate my own. They used my own weaknesses against me, when it was entrusted to them for safeguarding, or so I had thought.Posted by TheLadyScorpioThis was all me about 3/4 months ago. Best I can say about my situation with that particular person, is that even though I knew better, I couldn't be better. I was very weak and vulnerable, too much so to make the right decision, even for the good of myself. I didn't put a lot of value in myself and was using that particular experience as a way of punishing myself. Sort of like locking onto my insecurities.
Betrayal is such a heart wrenching experience on the heart of a Stinger.
When the trust which you had placed in the person, was used against you.
The dagger stabbing you right into the depths of your soul.
The numbing pain creates this well of anger, it seethes, it hates, it bites and it lashes out.
How could you entrust such vulnerability to someone, only for them to abuse it, and manipulate you for it.
Why would and could a Stinger throw all sense of intuition and gut feelings out of the window, when you knew all along something was a miss, and to end up doing things you sorely regret.
To be made a fool, when you are far wiser than that.
Why must we love the way we do ?
Betrayal. Such an ugly word.
Really humiliating. And crushing for my pride more than anything else. But it's not the job of the betrayed to carry the shame of the betrayer. Sometimes you feel like you have to, especially if the person who hurt you doesn't care or at least seems not to.
You'd be a fool to not have learned. You're wiser for the lesson. Though that's a shitty platitude that doesn't bring too much comfort in the immediate lol. My friends said that and I was like 'yeah ok. I'll take not learning a lesson though of it means I don't feel this awful' lolclick to expand

Posted by PeanutButterandEllyAnyways Elly, (((hugs))) and I am glad you are doing better for yourself. 🙂Posted by TheLadyScorpioYeah the last few months have shown me new uses for anger than what I previously had opened my mind to lol. I never knew I could be so casually cruel until someone very knowingly and obviously lorded my misplaced trust over me. Surefire way to send a Scorpio into cutthroat mode, public humiliation + using our greatest insecurities against us for personal gain.Posted by PeanutButterandEllySomewhere, along the way, I think I let them or allowed them to diminish the value I had in myself.

It is humiliating, Elly. My pride took a blow but it seemed to have rebounded far quicker than it had before, I thank my anger for that, for it to have kicked in, to have saved me. There is so much shame, I should have known better, I had learned this lesson in the past with other men ... why did I let this one slip past my radar ? why did I manage to let him get under my skin ? or did I see what I wanted to see and not what I knew was there ?
Always wanting to see the potential good in people, and when they let you down to show you their true selves, you kick yourself for it. You knew they were up to no good, but you help on to hope, the belief, that there is good in them. What a sad trait of a Stinger ... or maybe it is simply just me ?
The strange thing is, in the past, I would not only have kicked myself but would wallow, incessantly for a short period of time. This time, I just want to work, to do things, to regain a sense of self, to enjoy and learn of my own company again for a change. The 'feeling awful' part comes from having been manipulated and used, nobody enjoys that process, the betrayal.

I suppose we will never truly know our strengths until we are pushed into a situation, which puts our limits to the test.
My libra best has a Scorpio son and even at his young age she is baffled at how he's attracted to the more macabre and complicated aspects in life. She often says 'why do y'all always have to be so interested in scary and creepy things? Why can't you want candy and puppies?' Lol. To which I tell her that to is, we feel about the scary and creepy things the way most people feel about puppies and candy lol. It tests our limits which gives us growth and peace.
Probably also contributes to the problem of trusting when you really know better. 😆 I think water signs are suckers for a good story. We love a narrative.click to expand

Betrayal is such a heart wrenching experience on the heart of a Stinger.
When the trust which you had placed in the person, was used against you....
How could you entrust such vulnerability to someone, only for them to abuse it, and manipulate you for it...
Betrayal. Such an ugly word.

Posted by PhoenixRisingI had no fear in placing my vulnerability into the hands of another, some may call it foolishness but I believe it takes this open honesty for solid trust to be built. It may not be for everyone, however any and all pieces of vulnerability could be used against you if the individual in question is a master manipulator. There is no escaping those who have dedicated their lives, to prey.Posted by TheLadyScorpio

I'm sorry this happened to you.
The last time I allowed myself to truly be vulnerable, place trust in someone with any piece of me that could be used against me I was 13. I've never made that mistake again. With anyone. Yes I share, but nothing that if shared, tossed around carelessly or used to try to manipulate me or hurt me would have any impact.
I know that leaves me somewhat distant from my lovers, less connected, unavailable to touch, it's not something I am willing to push through right now. I can't bring myself to walk through the same door twice.

This is a bitchy and shallow thing to say. But when I read threads about women in their 40's/50's, talking about how they're just finally having satisfying sex lives, I am so damn thankful....I have grown up in a world where a woman enjoying sex was not just normal but expected.

Also, one person may have harmed me in the past but I would not carry the wrong doings and sins of that person unto the next. That is unfair to all those individual who are yet to come into my future.
I believe in consequences for the now, those who inflict damage, will get their dues. However, all those in my future, receives a clean slate.

Posted by PeanutButterandElly[a few more cuddly hugs for good measure then]
People tell me I'm surprisingly strong and have the best hugs though for real.
I'm surprisingly cuddly for being 5'3 and 3/4'' and 107lbs.

Posted by PhoenixRisingPR, I am sorry to hear that and I truly empathise with that pain.Posted by TheLadyScorpio

This may be true. I suppose when I made the promise to myself I had yet to master my anger. I still don't have a good handle on it, and have only learned to internalize it vs manage it. With that said, I always keep my promises, since very few in my life have.

I can't speak for you, but I wouldn't describe it as pain. More like acceptance of what is.
I learned at a very young age that the things that go bump in the night aren't mystical creatures at all.
I've learned to accept them for what they are and exist with them, albeit at a distance in some cases vs hope they will change.

I've never met a romantic partner that can see that in me. And this has only been a recent realization for me, past month maybe. But really taking that in has made it all the more difficult to connect long term.
But I have found it with friends. The Pisces Sun/Libra Moon. And Capricorn/Gemini. They always fucking know. Yet they're still tender with my fragile heart and call me on it extremely sparingly and with incredible gentleness.
Posted by PeanutButterandElly
I don't know about you. But at my core I still want it all. Just afraid to want it enough to believe it's real.click to expand

From what you have shared, I understand completely as to why you do what you do. @PhoenixRising, I would never doubt your experiences as any less, merely different means of coping, managing, and making do with what we have. 🙂

Posted by GetMistedLol same. Add a day or 2 if it was an extreme, intense extrovertPosted by PeanutButterandEllyPretty much every one tbh
Ever meet someone where every time you're with them you feel like you need to take three days alone afterwards just to process? Lol.

Posted by PeanutButterandEllyPosted by GetMistedIntrovert life man.Posted by PeanutButterandEllyIt's like that with people I already know also.Posted by GetMistedReally?! This isn't my first time dealing with it. But it's my first time dealing with it in a healthy way. Or at least trying to.

Is it your sun square moon you think? Or the aqua mars?
People in general just drain a lot out of me.
I'm the opposite usually. If I go three days without any social contact I'm probably depressed af by the end. People energize me, get me out of my head and I feel I connect better with myself through connecting with others.click to expand

1 1/2 days...air moons move at an accelarated rate 🙂.
Jokes aside it's exciting and jarring. I look forward to more and also want no part of it.
That is so fucking true. My brain is like 'I want to see you now, all the time, every second' but also 'holy fuck I can't think straight go away why is it so hard to calm down.'click to expand


Posted by ScorpioStarGazerI hear you on the dating. In the 20's it was fun. From mid 20 I was at my peak. Meeting guys was exciting and fun.
I'm not sure what has gotten into me. When I was in my twenties I was excited to go on dates, looked forward to them and did not hesitate. Now I'm more hesitant. I've come to expect the dates to not go anywhere, end the same way and just not work out. On the other hand I fear what if I meet that one who does work out and I fall hard and get too attached only to get hurt or for it all to fall apart? Now I feel it's too risky to put my heart on the line like that. I had 2 potential dates this weekend with an Aries and a Cancer. All we had to do were sort out the details, but I flaked on both of them. Just completely stopped talking to them out of the blue. This is so unlike me. I just had this overwhelming feeling to spend my weekend alone. I'm really embracing being an introvert lately and not sure why. I wouldn't mind keeping in touch with one of the guys and possibly going on a date at some point when I'm ready, but it would just be awkward if I reached out to him at this point after not talking to him for days. Wth would I say anyway? "Hey, sorry I flaked on you. I just got scared." Besides, I can't expect guys to just wait around for me to be ready to go on a date. That's just plain silly.

Posted by PeanutButterandElly
Also I've officially been single for a year today. Which has been the longest time I've been single since I started 'dating' at 14/15 years old.
🙂

I feel way more at ease now though. I don't ever spend the same energy analyzing for the sake of anxiety. If I analyze its moreso to see how I feel, what I want to do and what fits best with me.
And I don't think too many of the people I've dated very recently are used to it. I think people are either distant and chill or kind and clingy, because I've been told how confusing I am for being both ha.

Posted by aNEWday
I guess I'm just finally feeling like I'm getting out of that bad place, letting go and just being optimistic about my future love life, and just life In general.

Posted by PhoenixRisingPR, every time in which you mention a cup of tea, it never fails to make me want to sit down and share a pot with you.

Posted by PeanutButterandEllyPosted by PhoenixRisingThe funny part is most men think I need a 'macho man', full of dominance and aggression to break and conquer me.

It confuses and scares, but intrigues them. The punks that can't hang eventually fall to the wayside.
It's like natural dating selection lol

Without fail the personality types that instantly make me want to give in are the soft, sweet and reserved types. Probably why men who knew me through work or school were always so surprised when they'd meet my ex the first time.
I can't even play power games anymore. I just lose any interest in communicating when they start to pop up lol.click to expand

I can relate to that. Power play and testing. I recall once I was having dinner with a Fish and he said he likes to test just because it's fun. I'm quite expressive facially so I did not hide I was turned off. He asked what was wrong and I just said "I'm no longer interested"...."Wow. Just like that? I think you're looking at it negatively. I'm sure you have you're own way of testing too"...."Yup just like that. I'm not a lab rat and actually I don't".
Luckily we hadn't ordered our food yet.

Posted by PeanutButterandEllyYou shouldn't stop doing that if it makes you happy, but maybe you should focus more of that energy on you. That, and possibly set boundaries if you feel they are necessary to avoid feeling hurt by others. I'm learning this too.
I'm caring. Like really caring. Too caring.
Whenever I have to make a decision I sit and analyze how my decision might possibly effect any and everyone else and I think through those ramifications before deciding what to do.
And I sit and think about passing acquaintances or friends or dates that I've had and I'll think fondly of them and actually wonder and care about what they're up to. I buy friends and coworkers little surprise gifts or handmade items when I think of them, just because I thought of them. I like to buy or bake treats for work on holidays. (Or days after holidays for hangovers.) I just really like to love and take care of people.
In a relationship this desire goes into overdrive. All I want is to worship the object of my affection. Shower them in devotion, gifts, surprise presents or trips, do anything possible to inject a little magic or romance into their life. I want to create the life they were too scared to dream of and make it a reality. I want to spend hours talking with them and learning about them so I can better care for them. I want to look at them and have them felt seen, understood and loved.
And it terrifies me how happy and fulfilled that makes me feel because it's always put me at high risk of being hurt. Either my desire presents itself as an opportunity for abusers and/or users or the incompatible say I'm desperate or too nice. Ex Scorp was neither. Probably one of many reasons why it was so difficult to actually end that relationship.
It terrifies me though how much of this I am at my core. And it messes with me constantly because I volley between feeling I have to unlearn what makes me happy or fiercely defend my right to be me.
No point. Just verbal vomit as I try to settle this inner debate once and for all this week.

I don't wanna adult -_-

Posted by PeanutButterandEllyI got the urge to date last year, and I told myself it was in hopes of meeting someone. I was clearly fooling myself due to those guys I met.
I was dating three people. It's my goal by the end of the week to be dating none lol.
I thought casual relationships would afford me the freedom to work my shit out and still enjoy the company of others. But this isn't really helping my commitment phobia or helping eliminate my issues. I can't deny my moon and venus just because my mars and rising want to have fun.
Make decisions that give me simple, clear and practical results, that's what I said I wanted for my life a few months ago. My thoughts are neither clear nor simple with anyone, let alone practically benefiting my life, so it only makes sense to eliminate what is causing complications. They're only mental complications, but it's best to eliminate them before they become worse.
It's a shame because there was one in particular I was so smitten with. Someone who I so much wanted to get to know and learn about and be around a lot. It'll be a bummer to miss out on that, as the guy was fairly upfront about not being able to offer more than casual currently, and I didn't expect I'd change my mind so I said hell yes me too lol.
Overall I'm much happier about it now though. Already ended things with one, two more to go. Sucks to miss out on some potential, but I gotta make the life I want instead of just letting it happen to me. Tbh 'going with the flow' this past couple of years has resulted in me making HORRIBLE decisions and being really happy in the immediate and extremely dissatisfied in the long run. Lol.
I don't need the flow. I need to think and feel and choose.

To be made a fool, when you are far wiser than that.
Why must we love the way we do ?
Betrayal. Such an ugly word.
