My experience as being a Scorpio

I am a scorpio female. I've been reading some of the posts and I noticed that alot of you bad-mouthed us scorpios. One of your posts for example said that all we want is sex. As for me, I don't think that's true. I think about sex alot, but just because I'm a scorpio doesn't mean that I jump in the bed with any guy that looks at me. As far as my attitude and for alot of other scorpios, yeah. We talk about our feelings alot and our problems. The reason why I do it is because I feel like no one understands me or even listens to me. Its not like we don't care about other people. I know I am a jealous person and so are alot of others. But some of you guys think that we are just the worst people on this Earth! We are nice, friendly, out-going people for the most part. we normally get along well with other people, but once someone crosses us, we are ready to take things to another level. We just can't help that. And as for love, we can't help that when we fall in love with someone, we end up being possessive and that's one thing that I hate about being a scorpio. What I'm basically trying to say is that we are good people, its just that people don't know how to treat us.

Rhonda, I know where you are coming from. I am a Scorpio male. I can be very possessive in love, but it's not because I like owning somebody (that's the Taurus for you). It's because I always want to be with that person I love. Yes it can perhaps be a little suffocating to the other person, unless they feel the same way about me that I do about them. If they return that passion in love for me, why shouldn't we always be together?

A little suffocating? Try being the receiver of a male Scorpio's passion/love and then tell me it's a little suffocating. That's an understatement. The funny thing about it all is you can dish it, but you can't accept it. It may come natural for you to be extremely jealous and protective of those you love. Why is it that you can't accept a woman who's just as jealous and possessive of you. That's the funny thing about a Scorpio male. They won't tolerate what they will dish out. My husband is a Scorpio and I care for him, but he can be a pain in the a**. That's not a fabrication. I live with this man every day and have for the past 5 years. I know him better than he knows himself. Maybe some people are being downright nasty about Scorpio people, but much of it is true. My father, mother, sister, and husband are Scorpio's and they all share characteristics that you wouldn't believe. The lower Scorpio self is selfish, ruthless, promiscuous, and unable to allow those that love them most to really "love" them, for all of the mind games they play.

Well what sign are you, 63.62?

wow, I am also curious what sign you are, I will just take a guess and say cancer? I am a 34 yr old Scorpio female
and I just have to say I just found this website and am enjoying reading how
other Scorpios and those involved or know a Scorpio view them and deal with them. Yes, we are a complicated water sign and we so called according to the
star charts "rule the sex organs" and
are renowned for our jealeous nature and our being secretive too. These are just traits and like all signs there are
positives and negatives to describe Scorpio. I know I am secretive, but I also am a secret keeper; I am serious and intense, but I am also the first person friends come to in a crisis. I
am not a jealous Scorpio, but I used to
be as a child. You have to make the best
of what this sign has to offer and remember we cannot expect everyone else to take life and love as "intensely" as we Scorpios do. we are a "stand out" star sign and should make the best of it,cause when we're good-we're awesome!
Cheers!!

I think there is a differance between male and female scoropios.
And I am sure they ALL cant be bad...

They're not - they'e just like everyone else, only more intensified. I'm a Virgo girl with a Scorpio North Node, Mars and Neptune, and my Cancer mother sometimes complains about my extreme thinking. I find Scorpios to be full of life and curious to learn about their surroundings and the people they deal with. I also try to stay on their good side as much as possible!

Rhonda, I have only a couple things to say to you. I think that you are a true Scorpio chick, and I admire you. You said everything that I would have said, you really told everyone how it really is. Some people just can't hadle the truth, or they had one bad experience with a Scorpio, and now they hate all Scorpios. Us Scorpios need to stick together, and show the world how awesome we really are. Have Fun in the future, and always remember the Scorpio within.

Superwoman? I like that name!

Ronda22, I only hate bad Scorpios. The good ones get the hugs and kisses!

There is a lot of needless bashing of Scorps though...last night in a chat with professional astrologers, one said that they would "sooner invite Osama over for tea than a scorpio!"

Think it gets a little out of hand sometimes. Every sign has their bad apples, its just the cool thing to do to rip on scorpios. We are an intimidating sign. Then again, even to say that will warrant a negative response from someone.

Someone wrote here that the males and females are different. That I tend to agree with based on my own experience. I think the men are more difficult than the women.

Oh interestingly I know a scorpio-scorpio couple where the man is totally suffocating and possesive, but rants about how his wife is too jealous and suffocating(when he cheats on her.) Go figure.

I recently got close to someone and as hard as it is for me to admitt, they didnt care about the relationship as much as i did. i realized though, that other signs just aren't capable of caring as much as scorpios are. we both cared as much as we possibly could but what they gave just wasnt enough for me. i decided there was just no point. i think it was definetly the right thing for both of us even though it didnt feel like it for us at first.

About the Scorpio-bashing:

I HATE that! I think it comes from total ignorance and lack of initiative/ability to try to figure us out. It's amazing to me that people want to complain so much about us Scorpions, when I could so easily list 15 thousand things about EVERY OTHER SIGN that annoy me to no end! Seriously, why do people who live in glass houses throw stones?
