Slightly worried that (if true) he's found another woman and he's most probably just looking for another victim. I wonder if his mother has noticed anything about his behaviour.



Probably, when he was a young boy and then dismissed it as many mothers do.
Quite a few parents throughout the ages refuse (or have refused) to believe their 'little soldier or Princess' could do anything wrong or harmful to others.

The worst 1's are those that can see what their child is doing and instead of chastising and correcring the behaviour,they provide excuses for them. Essentially permitting the child to carry on without consequence or responsibility.

My father was a Scorpio (Nov 16) he was a Cruel bastard, biggest SOB I have ever known. He served in Vietnam under 1st Marine Division (AKA The old breed), and would talk about his days of killing as if it were something to be fond of. One of my uncles was also a Marine in Vietnam and they would both get together and compare Kill stats.

My uncle, also a Scorpio (not sure what day) would gush about one of his biggest achievements during the war. Mowing down a group of VC (VietCong) with his Machine gun during a Patrol, most of them shot in the back and he loved every moment of it. Seemed to get off when one begged for his life while critically wounded, Father and uncle would laugh about that then both say "Fucking Gooks" in unison.

Good Times! *Sarcasm*

He is a marine. I believe based on many conversations about his childhood that becoming a marine allowed him to tap into his violent tendencies without fear of being judged. His days are spent regretting that he left and missing combat. Reading your comments and being away from him I have so much clarity. I would never consider taking him back or being alone with him. It's more than his astrological sign, I've dated Scorpios in the past and there intense and passionate. I see his actions as definitely psychotic and I truly believe he is suffering from PTSD however his pride would never allow him to think he has mental health issue. His fascination with killing with his hands and knives. He has good qualities and we had wonderful moments together but these issues were always right under the surface and the last six months he really started to let his guard down.

In all fairness just cause he's a Marine doesn't mean he's Psychotic, however Marines are trained to Kill and by the end of Basic training they will know how to do it well. Marines are a unique breed, and unlike the other branches of the United States Military, many join but few will actually be accepted.

Also I suspect his regrets of missing Combat is less to do with no longer being able to kill indiscriminately and more to do with letting his Comrades down. Marines are tight knit, it's instilled from day one that they will not give up willingly and that they will be there for each other until the mission is over or they die. After all, Marines are first in and last out.

Plus factor in the troubles associated with re-adjusting to civilian life and suddenly realizing that you have come back to a country that more or less didn't care for you and certainly didn't miss you while you were away. This is why most Marines go back for additional Tours and stay in the Military, if they can.

AnomalousBull I didn't mean to sound as though I equate his behaviors with all marines. What I observed and learned during our relationship is that his thought process was very flawed and he was often easily angered and filled with rage before he joined the marines. He is neurotic, with OCD and few friends. As a active marine he described himself as an outsider who never got along with the other marines. He very clearly would state that he missed combat and wished he could hurt people but he knows this is wrong and he does not act on his impulse. He is a complicated man that I loved.
