Scorp stubborness....

Will you cut off you nose to spite your face?

I'm not that stubborn myself. I can change my mind pretty easily once its set if someone convinces me

I'm pretty compromising...I'm stubborn sometimes, but I see the world from every viewpoint and understand human differences

All the ones I know say they are maleable, yada yada, can be convinced. Couldn't be further from the truth.

It depends a lot on the issue. If their fixedness has the slightest chance to kick in, done deal.

my scorp is not stubborn. he is very easy to reason with. the thing is he is very fixed so something he agrees with may not happen for years lol (yeah what's the difference whether stubborn or not one may ask lol)

I'd call myself more tenacious/passionate.

I am stubborn when it comes to getting my point across. You need to hear my entire line of reasoning before we move on to a new subject, just because sometimes I think abstractly and it'll make more sense if I can explain my whole thought process.

But I won't cut my nose off to spite my face, just for the hell of it, just to say "I got my way!"

If someone can explain something to me with absolute/rational/mature sense…I can compromise. I'm all about conflict resolution.

The only kind of convincing that would work is whether the Scorpio was only 90% sure of their stance and did allow 10% to change their minds. Or if they had a feeling there might be another solution to this so when you bring that specific one up and they follow suit...it's not them being maleable..it's still their idea because they calculated it well. It's tricky yet funny, and you think you succesfully brought up some key points to change their minds... not quite.

i normally do not find scorpios stubborn at all. my ex boss was a scorp. the easiest person to reason with.

Once you reach my advanced and decrepit age, you realize your supply of fucks is dwindling, so you reserve your fucks (and stubbornness) to give on truly important things.

from my experiences, they follow your lead.. only to the extreme.

if you're stubborn, they'll show you true stubbornness

if you're too easy going, they'll basically disappear

whatever you do to them, they'll do to you in kind.. only worse

true.

i learned to keep my moodiness in check because i enjoy an emotionally stable and happy household and his smiles

If I appear stubborn it's probably because I've already thought through the problem from every microcosmic levels. I've experimented each possible outcome in my mind and have exhausted all other variables. And I find my current course to be the best course ( or thought) for me. In that case, I'd probably keep going despite what someone else says UNLESS they tell me new information that O haven't thought through yet.

On the other hand, if it's about the other 95% of things that I haven't thought about or that doesn't mean that much to me, I'm pretty go with the flow and filled with compromise.

Depends on what's being discussed, basically.

Yah, I am like that too Brightlight.

I am an Aries moon!

Depends. I'm very stubborn and determined once I've set my mind I am not budging.

I think water signs are stubborn in general I know I can be stubborn but I'm easy going most of the time. Can Scorpios be stubborn? hell yes my experience is with Scorpio women my fix for their stubbornness is let them do what they want when it doesn't work do it the way you want too. I think the most stubbornness woman I had to deal with was a Taurus she wouldn't budge on anything there was no reasoning with her.

The stubbornness in Scorpios case would be tied to they are scared of change.

I was thinking about this today, actually.

I'm too stubborn. Scorp sun, Taurus moon! I'm trying to think of the pros of this but all I can think is, "it's because I'm right" lol

i know many scorps, and none are nearly as stubborn as me.

I guess you can also be stubborn in different departments
