It appears to me, in the limited time that I have been here, that hate seems to be spread all over this site on various board (minus the books, movie, etc. boards). Scorps just deal with it like champs. I have noticed that some people on the other boards seem to be on this "woe is me, why does everyone hate us" train, while the Scorp board seems to be filled with "what the f*ck is wrong with guys?" agenda. Eh, as Scorps we don't care too much about being hated, hence the difference in thread topics.

Mercury retrograde in Leo = hurt egos and sensitive communication. What is there to do with scorpios?

Oh.

Ahhh I seeeeeeee said the deaf mute blind man.

And since we are SO blunt and forthcoming, we are the assholes ^.^ Not that a scorpio really cares all that much who we offend. Take us or leave us. Most take us. 🙂

My virgo initiated a serious conversation about things during merc retro, I was like "aw shit now I have to talk bout this NOW?!? Can't it wait like 3-4 weeks??" Think it ended up okay though.

Yea DXP has taught me one thing...stay away from Scorpio men. I don't think I have heard a positive thing about one in here.

I like you guys. Some of you are a little agressive in the way you speak or should I say type but that's ok too. You are almost the opposite of Air signs. There is no gray area with a Scorpion. Kind of like Earth signs but with much more passion. What you see is what you get. I haven't met a prententious one yet.

Scorpions are easy targets as they have this thrust upon themselves. Scorpions state that they are intense emotionally people, but they do not express or share this with other signs who are trying to get to know them. It leaves the rest of the signs wondering, what is up with them?
Scorpions get the reputation of being the ice cold people. Come across as icebergs with their hearts made of stone. They also do not share or tell the other people what they are feeling. So how the hell do we know what is going on?

I have asked a previous scorpio, I get the 2 same answers, Nothing is wrong or I am OK. I was able to get into the heart of the problem with this scorpio because we were together. I had my ways to get the answer. But for for asking, most of the time, when you finally discovered that there is a problem, you were already packed and down the road from the scorpion. They have already made up their mind and decision. They were the judge, jury and executioner all in one. You do not have chance or your get 1 chance and if you do not recognize it in time, it is too late.

Oh I don't know Intrigued. It was an interesting conversation. We're exclusive, but not committed. Virgo's a little commitment shy. Then again, he's talking about what our kids would look like (wtf?) and dying alone. So.. maybe commitment to him is like the rest of his life. I wasn't thinking about getting MARRIED anytime soon jeebus! but he doesn't want to be "official" because thats what it means to him? And even saying that, he turns right around and says "we will have to do X, some time.." Which is something that won't happen for at least another couple months. *shrug* its the label, he doesn't want the label.

cbseawind, scorpios have a tough exterior and are puppy dogs on the inside.

Ask?

I'd have to agree with this. Not all Scorpios like to play nice with others. Not because they are cold. Sometimes it something as simple you're asking a question they think you should already know the answer to, or it's the way you asked the question. I know I am like that. If you ask me a quetion I deem as stupid as f*ck, you will get a stupid as f*ck answer--then I'm labelled a smart a $ $ or difficult. Eh.....I'll care tomorrow. Maybe. Probably not.

Skykomish - you state scorpios have a tough exterior and IntrigueScorp stated talk to them, but my scorpion who I want to get back in the good books with, when I approach her, I get frost bite. How do you strike up a conversation with this typ of scorpio?

ahhh, what then, may I ask got you OUT of the "good books with" the Scorp? That is the question....
If you're getting frost, there's a reason for it...c'mon, spill your guts..

Condensed version of what I hid, I admitted I had feelings for her. She is a co-worker. From there, everything exploded.

What a good post to share my thoughts and intellect with. I came on this board/website asking a question about scorpions. Why the hell do they stare? Just talk to the person! I already had my answer, I just wanted to see what kind of feedback I'd get. There wasn't really any explanation from various manys.

Love and Hate are sides of the same reality.
It is human nature to give what they have inside.
Haters hate. Lovers love.

This being said I don't see statistically Scorpios being more hated or loved
then other signs. All signs take turns. If one takes offense being hated, why
perpetuate the hate? Take a different approach. Change yourself.

SeaWind,

You freaked out said scorpio.

Scorpio will avoid you for a while. Then will either a) (he/she has feelings back or is curious) will start staring and stalking you secretly, or b) Will let you come to him/her slowly, as friends only, cautiously starting to let you in again but being uber careful that nothing is misconstrued as returning the feelings. Might be pretty short/blunt/abrupt with you for a while first, just to make it extra clear. Comes across as ice-bitch, but scorpio WILL eventually tone it down and give you another chance to be friends. Course by then you might not want to.

Skykomish:

Thanks for the insight.
Getting to the point of no return for me. This morning was she completely ingnored me which visably on purpose. I was talking to some other co-workers, she was leave her desk and I looked at her directly. She saw that I was looking and sh then turned head slightly away from me and look down on the floor. She did this twice as she returned to her desk to get something after the first look.
I feel to coldness from her. I do talk to her but strictly on a professional level, only if I have to. She does not to me at all on a professional level.
