@OP.. Can you please explain what he said or did that you consider to be rude in nature?



It's dumb stuff but just disrespectful.

When I first got there. I didn't know who he was. He didnt' know who I was, but he would make slight remarks while I was in ear shot and around me. Like "what is she doing? She doesn't know what she's doing, look at her." I took me a minute to realize it was him who said these things, because at the time, it was my first day and I wasn't paying him any mind, but doing my job exactly how my BOSS told me to. So I knew he was buggin.

Also, it wasn't always words it would be his facial expressions or demeanor. One time he saw me speaking to a guy. This was a two person conversation. He jumped into the conversation and I said one word he put his hand up and told me to shush, but his facial expressions and demeanor read shut the f up. My thing is that there is no reason to be disrespectful, considering the guy was talking to me. Initially it seemed like he no longer wanted me to speak to this person so he removed me from the conversation.

The very next day, I ignored him and didn't even look at him. He then is all very nice and respectful. I mean overly nice and asking me why I'm so quiet. I ignored him the entire time.

The next time he was rude was when I happened to say something in conversation that he happened to be a part of. He in a rude and manner said "alright, stay out of this" I looked at him like he was crazy and had to be joking. He later tried to say something to me while I was in conversation with someone else and I basically told him not to talk to me because you don't know how to speak to me. He was smiling and laughing like he was shocked I said something/ he liked that I finally gave him a reaction.

Don't be sorry. I wasn't coming on to you. I was only asking because your advice seems terrible to me. It seems like you feel that every man that is not completely sure of himself is playing games. You don't seem to understand Scorpio's at all. I couldn't imagine you being married to one.

hes practicing his game on you. Compliment a girl then walk away is a tactic.. hes trying to set you up to chase him.



Not necessarily. He might just be a bit shy. That's how I am. He wants to know if he has a chance and is a bit scared to just come straight out and ask if you're interested.

It could be that as well, but I guess I won't know for sure unless I ask.

@PR..

I got pissy because a warning was issued to the LADIES that lumped all men, and their actions into one category.

Damnata said it best.. The beginning of anything starts with a bit of game playing. It creates the mystery and intrigue.

I spend 80% of my waking hours in a hospital, where sex, politics, and reputation play big roles in the majority of your day. I understand that the new folks here don't know my history.. But just as you said, consider the sourse of information. Most of my relationships spawn from work relations. Either you can handle it, or not.. It's not for everyone.



Dazed, understood. I was referring to the other thread where the comment was made and the statement(s)that followed. I understand why you were upset in this thread and agreed with many of the points you made here, minus one 😛

There's literally nothing more anyone can add that will be of benefit to you.

You've already convinced yourself, at least superficially, that this guy "wants" you. You've dismissed any advice given here that doesn't support what you want to be true and grasped at advice that does support it like a hobo on a ham sandwich.

At this point...the thread is just Troll-bait.



I did no such thing. You once again failed to pay attention to detail. I weigh both option that he doesn't and that he does and concluded that my gut feeling and asking him are the only things that will lead me to the truth.

Of course that would be all you where hearing from your "feeling"...

Well, its not like you have anything better to do, so why don't you join in and contribute something with more substance, hmm?



Again.. As with most threads about Scorp men on this forum. Vital details are left out in the OP. When that occurs.. Most of us tend to assume you are looking for validation.

Honestly, I get that and respect that. As most times, people see things easier because they went through them so they figure the minute details to them aren't needed. So I glossed over something you felt important.

However, if you feel the thread is a waste of time or STUPID, why does one keep coming in, being a negative Nancy and just making the thread you dislike longer. It just makes that poster look as illogical as the length of my thread.

@OP..

"It's dumb stuff but just disrespectful"

I'm going to say this with the understanding that you acknowledged it as "dumb stuff".

I personally take work very seriously. My demeanor in work conversations and situations are completely different from my demeanor outside of work or conversations at work that don't specifically deal with work.

Sometimes you have to be down right mean to get your point across while at work, or when the job demands a stern attitude.

My advice to you..

What I see is an inability to seperate the two circumstances. The male Scorps personalities of work vs casual are not synonymous.

If you can't see the difference, you need to step out of the equation and deal with him soley on a work related basis.

If you're actually interested? Show what balls you have and stand up to him at work. Show your strength in the work place.

After that.. Do what Elle said and invite him for coffee.

Learn how to seperate work/casual. Again.. They are two completely different senarios. You have to attack them differently.

Don't assume that his reputation at work carries into his casual life.




My job isnt' stern. It is jovial and happy. Everyone is basically a kid. I'm not working at an insurance firm or any place non casual. Our conversations are about kiddy stuff or fun stuff. His disrespect came from no where on a non work related matter. His attitude did not hail from taking work seriously or being stern for the sake of the job or appearance. It came from him wanting my attention and mad that another guy had it.

Our job is a chill job...its on the same level as working at an ice cream parlor, a department store or a fast food joint. Everyone is there to make money, but have fun while doing it. The conversations are goofy and casual. There is no such thing as a work conversation. The job is too basic for that.

@OP.. ffs stop over thinking and trying to script your conversations. You're going to drive yourself crazy and come off ungenuine.

@elle.. Wtf is your strawberry?!

Also.. Aqua mars likes the grey area 😉

@OP..

Maybe to you the job is chill and fun.. But even in department stores or fast food joints, profits and customer service are the driving force.

If you're not making me money.. Peace.




Lol no your not getting it. To nobody at my job does work actually mean buckle down and only focus on work. I know people who go in the back and smoke weed. lol Its a job where you do menial task and collect your check. Your about your money when you do your job. Him being disrespectful had NOTHING to do wit the fact that he takes his job serious, because he DOESNT. It is a very chill environment. Imagine working wit a bunch of teenagers or 20 year olds. Also the guy and I who were originally talking were talking about celebrities/entertainment. The guy came out of nowhere and entered our conversation, hushed me up and "pretended" to be interested in what the guy I was originally speaking to was saying. He wasn't interested he just didn't like that I was talking to another guy and he put a pause on it.

Perhaps I am mistaken. However, I'm a Scorpio male. I have given compliments and walked away. Not because I'm playing games, but because I am shy and a bit scared of rejection. Following your advice she should assume I'm playing games and she should ditch me when that's not the case at all.

you cant expect a guy to respond to you maturely by "taking the reigns" (like a man) once this whole teasing, baiting games begins.



I've seen it work out for assertive women.

I'm pretty middle ground. I gauge by reciprocity.

For me personally, the part where I'm just waiting there and not initiating anything has never worked out. I'm not the chasing type but I'm not passive either.

One size does not fit all.



Sooo, taking the middle ground with someone teasing you, playing with you and being rude.

Has that ever worked out for you?

Chow.. im a 24 y.old scorpio female.Let me tell you one thing. Whatever it is you will live and learn.

Most of the time things start out this way. The excitement kicks in, scorpio freaks out and of course your head goes spinning around.

But...Overanalyzing and calculations do not work. Your thoughts and actions will just get out of control to a point where you cant be yourself. All youve got to do is to just be yourself. You wanna know how you approach him?? Just talk to him like you'll talk to a friend, dont be hesistant its only conversations you lot are having. If youre gona have to be a little flirtatious you know exactly what you need to do/say when you dont sit there and plan it all out in your head. That comes to you naturally.

Take it as it comes and leave the fear of what if this and that happens aside.

You believe hes attracted to you, then he prob is. There is soo much you could do to have this guy wonder as much as he makes you wonder but then again if i tell you all those it will be "game playing" lol.

Confidence just confidence alone will get you a long way. The way you walk, talk, smile and do it all with such self belief that he knows you arent his average type of girl.. Don't let him know he makes you wonder this much.. show him that, IN FACT "there REALLY is something about you" that he should think about..

What I mean by him not knowing how to answer is like this, "Ummmm I do like you, but I have... blah blah blah." Even if he's shy, he should be able to say (maybe after the initial shock wears off) that he is in fact interested. That's it. Give him a little time, but trust your instincts. If is answer is excuses or if you feel bullshit, it probably is and you leave knowing who he is and that you deserve someone better. Or you two give seeing each other a go. Either way, no more games and wondering.

Also he asked for my snap chat a bit back and I said no, lol I hope that I played his own game against him. I hope he was shocked internally bc he didn't show it on the outside



Im not sure what snap chat is but you don't want to "play him at his own game" to the point of a losing competition for ego gratification if there is any possibility of something occurring between you two.

So I had a good time with him today. We talked had fun and I was able to be myself. I wasn't direct and asked him if he liked me, I know he does and he's slowly coming out of his shell at times. He's immature or he is afraid of being direct in fear of getting hurt or rejected. I can see that.

The lol moment of the day was: He asked me how many boyfriends have I had? ---translation what he wanted to ask was: do I have a boyfriend?

I feel like I'm starting to see through him. It's easier now to read him as before I couldn't because I was blind. I have to find out how old he is...BC either he is immature or I intimidate him

The only thing that catches me about this a scorpio guy who doesn't care about his job. Lol.

I work with three scorpio men, in a job that's one where you do a job, collect your paycheck and move on. There's little career fulfillment and zero advancement. And they're all still intense as hell about it. And one of them is a total drunk/stoner, but he still takes his shit seriously.

PS - OP, you're way too in your own head. Be direct. Go for it. That's all I got.



I don't understand that unless these men take pride in their work. We obviously do our job correctly and to the best of or ability, but as a means to an end we aren't all serious and we try to have fun when we can

Good for you finding a nice pace to connect and not being too scary direct I was worried about that. I don't like his boyfriend question, sounds kinda judgy.. not so sure about the translation, he sounds young.

Happy you're on the right track with what you feel you need to do.

So I had a good time with him today. We talked had fun and I was able to be myself. I wasn't direct and asked him if he liked me, I know he does and he's slowly coming out of his shell at times. He's immature or he is afraid of being direct in fear of getting hurt or rejected. I can see that.

Let me know your opinion, but I think he asked that because he is interested. Imo men don't ask questions like that just to be nosey. I mean why would you care to know my body count?

Well Chow, you've recieved really good advice. It wasn't suppose to just get you over this hump, but advice you need to apply to your entire courtship and life in general. "Try to stay out of your head", "don't overanalyze", "try to meet him half way" and "don't have expectations about how he should engage you because water signs are self protective and their actions can be misinterpreted" therefore, when in doubt "ask the man directly". And yet, here you are already ask us to speculate on his feelings. Again. You've speant 20+ years learning to behave in a particular way and that won't change with one thread. I forget that sometimes. My post was a reflection of my impatience as much as it was about your lack of a maturity in this area.

Be patient with yourself and just take it slow. Perhaps read your three threads over whenever you have doubt or more questions.

"Be quick to listen and slow to speak".

Best of luck to you!
