Not trying to stereotype or anything, but why are some of you (in general, no one specific) so eager to provoke people into conflicts they try to stray away from? And then some of you seem to get intense and defensive, as if you expect someone to turn the other cheek after you've hurted them. If you won't turn the other cheek, why should they (not saying they shouldn't)?

Every sign has it's faults but this sort of problem bugs me the most with Scorps, especially in conflicts that you try so desperately to avoid and negotiate. Some of you guys just seem to resent the very fact that others don't always feel as terrible as you do, so it's your goal to pick a fight and inflict your feelings upon them. If my experience, especially with friends, is wrong then I stand corrected and I'm truly sorry for even throwing this out there.

Thanks for reading and also, even if the wording of my sentences seem rude, it wasn't my intention to piss anyone off. I'm just getting this off my chest.

I agree.

"you expect someone to turn the other cheek after you've hurted them"

GUILTY..I burn bridges and expect them to mend themselves. I don't want to mend them..Don't like saying sorry.

Cap: "but do you guys regret burning the bridges or you just feel guilty of being wrong and hutrting other.Do you do that to those who really matter?"

I don't feel no remorse/guilt. As far as I am concerned what I did was justified. Sounds really awful doesn't it..but I guess its conviction. Cap we do it to everyone, nobody is given any preferential treatment be it family, close friends etc..Everyone around us will know exactly where they stand. The only time we feel guilt is if we've blown our top for no reason..i.e. got too emotional and said things out of turn..

"do you fool people,lie about them being important?"

Never..if you are important to us, you will know it..Remember Scorps never do flattery...so fooling people into thinking they are important is flattery as far as I am concerned and I wouldn't EVER do that..If you are important, we have a lot of respect for you and you will know about it via actions.

Of course if we want to get back at you for whatever reason, we'll take you to a height unimaginable and then crush you with a devastating blow!..hehe

and when you have burned the bridge and try mending it again what does that mean"

Yes I agree with Yama...it usually means we made a mistake..and we are geniunly sorry.

You know to be honest. I don't try and inflict my feelings upon others. What I do ask for is empathy in certain situations. Water signs are manipulative sweetie so really it is in our nature to try and make others feel guilty if they don't agree with us 100% .

I'm gonna be completely honest too. If a bridge is burned upon something I have said or done to you I will apologize if I feel you are important enough. But if I feel as though I am right you will never get an apology from me. Scorps don't like apologizing anyway. That's really just the bottome line.

Thats why when we do apologize its heartfelt...and the other person feels it too...

The same applies to the term I love you..i hate that term being thrown around too lightly cos it loses its meaning...when someone says it for the first time..you can feel that they mean it from the bottom of their heart..

I don't know how the other Scorps here would reply, but if you and I have had a falling out over something, then I(the Scorp)don't TRUST you anymore. That's when the 'nasties' come into play. However if things are generally OK, I do not 'set out' to hurt you or pick fights to make you feel bad. If I like you, I treat you with respect and dignity, if I don't like you, I will have little or nothing to do with you.

Just my two cents....
