I was dating this scorpio man October 25th, yes he's a cusper for 8 months. I'm a Leo woman July 28th. Our relationship was amazing but we had a lots of issues towards the end because we had a lot of things happened that kind of piled up separately in our lives he went through a lot and I went through a lot financially physically family-wise and Friends wise but we still stuck it through with each other but my question is when we broke up we had a very amicable and nice break up we did not yell we did not scream we spent one last night together holding each other making love laughing and when we finally left each other the next morning we both cried but we kept in touch with each other I saw him the following day and the day after he's also a personal trainer and he trains me so we go to the gym two to three times a week and we talked almost every day we have been broken up two weeks at this point I'm just confused because he doesn't do normal Scorpio Tendencies when they break up like be mean or just not contact you not respond to your text messages or calls I guess I am just confused cuz most Scorpio cut you off why would he still hold on if he doesn't want me back...and I do want my man back....what's some advice on how to do that...

He initiated it...it's a lot but as condensed as I can make it is...we both went through a lot personally and together this year....most of the stuff we went through together was due to outside issues that occurred....his reasoning was a few different ones...we both had a lot going on and making changes I'm moving out of state next year and he felt although he cared deeply for me he felt he should be in love with me after 6 months of dating and he wasn't sure if our relationship would last long distance and get was scared of me moving and us not being able to sustain...also we had been having arguments...not a lot but they were big arguments in a condensed amount of time...he went through some bad financial hits and helped cause 1 of mine...said he felt jaded from past relationships and our up and down drained him some...told me I was his best friend and he felt like he was making a big mistake but felt this was something that needed to be done to help anything we have or could have and how this could make a better him.for me and us but he wants to remain friends and keep the door open for possible removal...he played his part too...felt like this wasn't the end...sorry rambling....but it was a few reasons...but we laughed and talked for an hour and both agreed and made love and held each other and the next day as we left each other we held each other soooo long and when I pulled back he was crying smhclick to expand

what's his placements??
he might be the type that is waiting around for his "true" love while keeping you on the string.
i'm skeptical because if a man isn't gonna throw you over his shoulder and say you're mine,my woman and put a ring on it...
he's hesistant because you are UNavailable in alot of ways for him and not for him...click to expand

Aww. Damn Leo. This gave me the feels. Ugh. I’m so sorry. The bittersweet.
That’s rough.
He gave you a lot of various reasons but they all have the same thread. He isn’t able to give you the kind of commitment where he could remain happily responsible to you. However much is due to his unresolved hurt with exes, the distance, his current feels, none of that matters, because it shouldn’t be your responsibility to help him heal himself. It sounds like there is a part of him which genuinely cares for you. But it’s not enough to give you what you need and what you deserve, and it sounds like he knows that.
This is also not fair to you. Not fair to still treat you like you’re together in small ways. Not fair to keep the door open but break up with you and still hang around like nothing has changed.
Since it was amiable, taking some time actually apart and maybe finding a new trainer might be helpful. Protect your heart sweet leo. Make yourself a priority and it will work itself out. Either he figures out what’s confusing him or you feel so great about yourself that you attract someone who can actually give you the love you need and deserve.click to expand

generally speaking, water is introverted, and needs alot of recharging time so if you or anyone else, give him stress, he needs to get away. but he is spending alot of time with you in the beginning and you and him talking about marriage. But something happened, if you burden him with too much, he won't like it. other than what you mentioned about financial burdens, i dont know what is going between you two that he needs to keep the door open but is disengaging himself.
It most likely just means he considers you a good person, and had a really good connection with but is not really the woman he feels is right at this moment. so he keeps you as a friend but no longer considers you as anything more serious right now.click to expand

Thank you for your words love they are appreciated honestly...actually has me over here crying again...it's only been 2 weeks but my heart still feels ripped out my chest he's a damn good man...then when the part came about he doesn't see a relationship renewal in the future but never know what could happen that was worse than the initial breakup like how do your feelings switch like that....he said he meant it at the time he said it but this was how he felt now...I think because of how emotional I've been about the break up which I know is the wrong thing to do but he's been there and comforted me a lot during the breakup...I think that pushed him away some and made him feel like he made a good decision but he's just still being there for.me and talking like we are still best friends like nothing happened...I mean of course we don't have any romantic interactions but it's like automatic friend switch like we've just been friends forever...like he's not effected at all...only time.I know he has feelings is whenever we leave each other how he looks at me and stares and his eyes get cloudy then sometimes he can barely keep eye contact because his eyes get red and I see tears well up...and he hugs me tight and for a long time....I cry toof and he just let's me
Ooof. The feels.
Let me clear tho, you should in no way feel that you experiencing painful emotions is a mistake. And sharing that your hurt, that’s not pushing him away. That’s telling the truth about how you’re processing pain.
It seems like continuing to see each other is a breeding ground for resentment and confusion down the road, for you both.
Focus on yourself and what you need to do to heal yourself, work through your feelings. The relationship is over. Prioritize yourself girl. You’ll be glad later you focused more on how you feel rather than him.click to expand

What hurts is that I agree with you wholeheartedly...and yes I did play my part and I took accountability and apologized and know I took some things for granted he admits he had his parts to play too it's just that I gave him a chance to correct it but why was it not worth giving me my chance was it too far gone at that point he admitted he should've told me when he started losing happiness.....my question is now what can I do to fix it or get him back I feel like he is that one...I feel like he's what I've always wanted the one to be like...I just want my man backclick to expand

I'm still friends with my scorpio ex's. But than again I'm not in love with them anymore and nor are they with me.
I think " being friends " with someone you want to be with again probably isn't the best way.
You have to re-start that romantic attraction. Act like however you did in the first place that made him want you I guess?

He initiated it...it's a lot but as condensed as I can make it is...we both went through a lot personally and together this year....most of the stuff we went through together was due to outside issues that occurred....his reasoning was a few different ones...we both had a lot going on and making changes I'm moving out of state next year and he felt although he cared deeply for me he felt he should be in love with me after 6 months of dating and he wasn't sure if our relationship would last long distance and get was scared of me moving and us not being able to sustain...also we had been having arguments...not a lot but they were big arguments in a condensed amount of time...he went through some bad financial hits and helped cause 1 of mine...said he felt jaded from past relationships and our up and down drained him some...told me I was his best friend and he felt like he was making a big mistake but felt this was something that needed to be done to help anything we have or could have and how this could make a better him.for me and us but he wants to remain friends and keep the door open for possible removal...he played his part too...felt like this wasn't the end...sorry rambling....but it was a few reasons...but we laughed and talked for an hour and both agreed and made love and held each other and the next day as we left each other we held each other soooo long and when I pulled back he was crying smh
Aww. Damn Leo. This gave me the feels. Ugh. I’m so sorry. The bittersweet.
That’s rough.
He gave you a lot of various reasons but they all have the same thread. He isn’t able to give you the kind of commitment where he could remain happily responsible to you. However much is due to his unresolved hurt with exes, the distance, his current feels, none of that matters, because it shouldn’t be your responsibility to help him heal himself. It sounds like there is a part of him which genuinely cares for you. But it’s not enough to give you what you need and what you deserve, and it sounds like he knows that.
This is also not fair to you. Not fair to still treat you like you’re together in small ways. Not fair to keep the door open but break up with you and still hang around like nothing has changed.
Since it was amiable, taking some time actually apart and maybe finding a new trainer might be helpful. Protect your heart sweet leo. Make yourself a priority and it will work itself out. Either he figures out what’s confusing him or you feel so great about yourself that you attract someone who can actually give you the love you need and deserve.
Thank you for your words love they are appreciated honestly...actually has me over here crying again...it's only been 2 weeks but my heart still feels ripped out my chest he's a damn good man...then when the part came about he doesn't see a relationship renewal in the future but never know what could happen that was worse than the initial breakup like how do your feelings switch like that....he said he meant it at the time he said it but this was how he felt now...I think because of how emotional I've been about the break up which I know is the wrong thing to do but he's been there and comforted me a lot during the breakup...I think that pushed him away some and made him feel like he made a good decision but he's just still being there for.me and talking like we are still best friends like nothing happened...I mean of course we don't have any romantic interactions but it's like automatic friend switch like we've just been friends forever...like he's not effected at all...only time.I know he has feelings is whenever we leave each other how he looks at me and stares and his eyes get cloudy then sometimes he can barely keep eye contact because his eyes get red and I see tears well up...and he hugs me tight and for a long time....I cry toof and he just let's me
Ooof. The feels.
Let me clear tho, you should in no way feel that you experiencing painful emotions is a mistake. And sharing that your hurt, that’s not pushing him away. That’s telling the truth about how you’re processing pain.
It seems like continuing to see each other is a breeding ground for resentment and confusion down the road, for you both.
Focus on yourself and what you need to do to heal yourself, work through your feelings. The relationship is over. Prioritize yourself girl. You’ll be glad later you focused more on how you feel rather than him.
I feel you healing myself 100% but I do know that being in each others space right now constantly isn't good but what sucks is we honestly do still have a great friendship...when we aren't in our feels which isn't most of the time we are always laughing and talking and having fun....and he trains me in the gym I've cut it down to seeing him at the gym to like 2 times a week and the rest on my own....but just to cut him off completely would hurt because I lost a friend too...he became like one of my best friends...you say the relationship is over...I want him back....is this just a done deal in the eyes of another mind such as yours?
In my opinion, it being just that, it seems like it’s a done deal for the foreseeable future.
I don’t think it’s impossible you’d ever be together again, but based on what you’ve written, it doesn’t seem likely you’d get back together anytime soon. If you did, it seems like it would be a year or many years down the road. Quite possibly after he (and perhaps you) dated others.
It’s hard to lose the friendship when you stop being lovers, but it’s a logical conclusion. If he or you started seeing someone else, it’d be difficult to maintain an authentic friendship yes?
If he did come back, he would need to show he’s steady and ready for something real since he was the one who lack confidence in the relationship.click to expand

aw. that is sad.
he was crying.. because he knows this is the end...
it's so sad 😢
So are you saying it's no chance of it coming back?
uh i dunno really..
i read this part:
he went through some bad financial hits and helped cause 1 of mine...said he felt jaded from past relationships and our up and down drained him some...told me I was his best friend and he felt like he was making a big mistake but felt this was something that needed to be done to help anything we have or could have and how this could make a better him.for me and us but he wants to remain friends and keep the door open for possible removal
he doesn't want more stress in his life...
from what i got. he wants to have freedom to love and enjoy his life, no more stress.
I meant renewal.not removal.BTW sorry for the typo...but you are right in your sentimentsearch he has said something along that line....but why stay friends with me and want to spend time...why say the door.could still be open we just need time but then switch to you're don't see a renewal in the foreseeable future but say you don't know what the universe has in store but still say you care for me want to spend time with me now after we get over our pain...talk to me pretty much every day multiple times has spent the night over here (no sex) and we still have a good report
generally speaking, water is introverted, and needs alot of recharging time so if you or anyone else, give him stress, he needs to get away. but he is spending alot of time with you in the beginning and you and him talking about marriage. But something happened, if you burden him with too much, he won't like it. other than what you mentioned about financial burdens, i dont know what is going between you two that he needs to keep the door open but is disengaging himself.
It most likely just means he considers you a good person, and had a really good connection with but is not really the woman he feels is right at this moment. so he keeps you as a friend but no longer considers you as anything more serious right now.
What hurts is that I agree with you wholeheartedly...and yes I did play my part and I took accountability and apologized and know I took some things for granted he admits he had his parts to play too it's just that I gave him a chance to correct it but why was it not worth giving me my chance was it too far gone at that point he admitted he should've told me when he started losing happiness.....my question is now what can I do to fix it or get him back I feel like he is that one...I feel like he's what I've always wanted the one to be like...I just want my man back
judging from your past posts,you really really want him back .. well just from posting this and asking for help 😢
but im sorry, we don't have any way of pushing him to you back. The posters here have given you great advise that he wants his space and it is over.
you want to keep hanging on.. and to make things right,
i get that. To be honest, i feel that keeping you as a friend is more dangerous for you than for him. He has detached and disengaged but you haven't and that's not fair to you honestly.
he is one of those that don't cut it off... and maybe he is doing this for your own good. To cut off slowly,
instead of harshly and completely.
to give you some time. And also give him time.click to expand
