Scorpio man likes me or not? Confusing!

I met a scorpio man in Uni about half a year ago and we hit off immediately. He hangs around with guys all the time and doesn't seem to have many female friends so I a little surprised that we became kind of close over the few months. He looks distant but once you get to know him, he starts to become chatty. He asked for email first after a few weeks we met and we started chatting a lot from then on. I opened up to him first and then he started becoming really friendly, enthusiastic and warm. I had a strong feeling that he liked me more than a friend. So I invited him to an event I was attending and he agreed to come along ( he told me that he rarely accepted invitations from other people). His friends also knew about me and teases him about it. However, after a several months, I made a huge mistake by telling him that I liked him.

I think he started to panic since he began saying that he liked me too but wasn't ready for a relationship at the moment and that he was leaving to go study abroad for 6+ months, etc. I told him it was OK and he didn't need to try so hard to reject me nicely but he insisted that he does like me in that way but want to remain as friends due to those reasons above. He still initiated conversations with me after my confession like nothing happened until he left the country. He also asked me to go to his farewell but I didn't go because I was the only girl apart from his friend whom he knew from high school and I didn't know anyone there. Apparently he and his friends got a bit drunk and they basically told me stuff like that he loved me via his email. I laughed it off and didn't ask him about it.

But just as I was getting on with my life since he didn't get into contact with me for almost 2 months after he left for abroad, he started to talk to me again like we used to. We chatted for ages and it felt like nothing changed. Just a while ago I also found a song he wrote (I happened to come across his site) that talked about leaving the country and having doubts whether the girl would leave him in the future so he would rather let go. I can't be sure but it sounds so much like me, except I don't know why he is scared I'd leave him since I didn't give him any reasons to feel insecure
Do I wait for him until he returns or does he just want to hang me on a hook?

if he's a songwriter, he will be using this experience for some time to come i suspect...i was married to one...look at adele who has grammys for her songs about rejection!

scorpios love to play the martyr in love and often distance ourselves from people we think will leave us...often for long enough for them to hook up with someone else...and then we have a self-fulfilling prophecy on their hands.

when you talked again recently, he was probably probing as to what your circumstances are. you wouldn't know he was probing as scorpios will never ask direct questions but guage everything from your responses. the biggest part of him probably expects you to have hooked up with someone else by now but there is another part of him that doesn't want to hear it.

sometimes when you meet someone and you know there will soon be a distance between you, you are more cautious about how much you invest emotionally in that person. personally, i always like to kind of check on possible life changing events coming up in the lives of someone when i meet them (in a discreet but probing way) and if there is, it's enough to prevent me getting involved.

but then...sometimes you meet someone so special that you can't help yourself, even if you know you're going to be going away or whatever and that's when scorps start fearing the worst about the other as a self-defence mechanism, which like i said leads to their fears coming true unless they get their heads out of their behinds in time to prevent it happening.

Thanks, I think I understand what you're referring to. I'm also a scorpio myself and I play disappearing acts when I feel like I need to get hold of my emotions.
