Are All Scorpio Men Cheap or Is It Just One?

Not all Scorpio men are cheap. Personality traits vary widely among individuals. Your experience could be influenced by personal values or circumstances rather than astrology alone. It's important to consider each person individually rather than generalize based on zodiac signs.

my boyfriend used to be, but it was mostly becuz he was typically broke (well.. maybe that's just PART of the reason.. lol). he seems to wanna pay for everything now, but i won't let him pay for EVERYthing. screw the old ways, it ain't fair until the female chips in.. haha.. yep.

He makes enough to afford eating out at the most expensive restaurant every weekend. He's far from poor, has a nice cute lil mercedes he keeps up, has very nice clothes, he's not poor at all. So, I don't understand why he picked out BK has a 1st dinner. There are a few cheap restaurants out to go to.

Hmm, GL. That was a good point. But I'm just not the fast food girl on the first date. Something like Chili's is fine, or just a movie. Why not that?

The car I could care less for. I've dated men with no cars, hooptys, nice cars, so the car i don't really care. Clothes, yes. You can't dress like a bum but we have good conversation, we connect in a way and he's really fun to be around.

Are there any signs at all that he was guaging your reaction to the BK date?? I wouldn't think so, but I wouldn't say it was impossible. Maybe it's sort of like GL said, only he was purposely trying to see what you would think. Actually, now that I think about it, that would be a very smart, and at the same time, a very harmless way of getting to know you a little right from the get-go. Maybe he's over people who appreciate his pretty money and pretty thing and wants to know who will appreciate him even if he drags them through BK instead of what should be an expensive restaurant. Lol definitely giving him the little benefit of the doubt, but either way it's funny.

So hopefully this guy has a lot more to him and he wants to see if you're worth it. He could be trying to see if you'll still 'see something in him' even if when he 'Has It His Way' it won't quite be what YOU had in mind. Scorpios are like that sometimes lol, but even then it's a stretch of the imagination hahah.

Yeah I get it, I'd be a little puzzled myself. I'm thinking he just doesn't know better. Maybe it was just meant to keep it simple, relaxed atmosphere to just chat. Me, myself and I just prefers something usual like movies instead of bk like you said yourself. I mean even though I really don't like going to the movies... but still preferable 🙂 Walk in the park or hanging out at the pool hall for first dates.

I actually had thought of what Elliot said too, about him maybe scoping you out...? Unlikely maybe, but that's what I'd be thinking myself. But whatever, man we females really do analyze everything don't we? LOL Dammit I had just settled on that he didn't know any better and then you guys got me thinking lol I stick to my first answer 🙂

Oh but shaiessence please! I know you're just wondering but seems like the date still went well right?

But if you wanna hear cheap I'll tell you what happened to this chic I know, oh and she's the Scorpio in the story by the way lol First the guy takes her to the movies, he doesn't pay because he has a friend who works there, sounds cool. The whole time she says that he kept trying to put his arm around her (he's ugly! fyi) We knew him so she didn't think it was supposed to be romantic at all. Anyway, afterwards he invites her to 'dinner' so she accepts plus he had picked her up (exactly why I never let anyone pick me up on first dates!) Took her to Jack in the Box... its been a casual date so that's fine... right? Well he didn't even ask her what she wanted, just got her one of those dollar burgers! LOL oh I can't stop laughing every time I remember the look on her face as she told us about it! Ok ok so then he asked her if she wanted something to drink, she was thirsty so she said yes. He came back with a cup of water! Oh and by the way I think she didn't finish eating the burger and he ate the rest of it lol Anyway, he asked her if she wanted to go dancing and she thought that they'd finally have a good time (plus she loves to dance) so she agreed thinking they'd be going to a club. He was excited and turned up the music in his car, stepped out of the car and told her to get out so she could dance with him... there... in the parking lot LOL No she didn't, just asked to go home. And she's hot by the way, very attractive girl, very nice too, just very very very dumb... as in stereotype blond behavior except without the blond hair lol

Anyway, don't worry about stuff like that, plus, atleast YOU got a whole meal lol

shaiessence-

I agree with Aprilbaby, I think you should have told him how you felt.

I have a Scropio friend and he wanted to invite me to eat some Gumbo at his house but he had made it and then frozed it and I was like "you are going to feed me some frozen Gumbo" how long has it been frozen? I don't even eat Gumbo, Then he said what do you want to eat and I said Steak I love Steak and don't you know he went to buy some and then mirinated it and called and said he brought some Steak just for me. I still never showed up.

But I am older (44) and maybe it's a difference when the Scorp Guy is older (50). I find them to be more laid back when they are older but I still would not date another scorpio. I prsonally don't think it will work. I might get a case.
