Is it just the Scorpios I know, or do you all have trouble initiating communication? Is reaching out considered weak to you? I know a Scorpio woman who will not initiate communication with her own adult son. Please explain...
Scorpio, why don't you initiate communication?
I think it's lack of interest.
Posted by TheCanBull9 times out of 10 what?
Scorpio will you just need to take a step back and admire them, they are a little sheepish at first.. but i'm a Cancer and can sometimes do that around folk i don't know, but 9 times out of 10 will initiate.
Not everything Scorpio do is against you, if it's such an issue why are you asking us? ask them.
Posted by TheCanBullAre you writing 9 times out of 10 the Scorpio will initiate or you will initiate.

Posted by TheCanBullI really appreciate your answer, yes you are right. I knew a Scorpio woman who would always show up where I hung out, but never initiated texts or calls. I see thanks.Posted by communicatorEvery Scorpio i have ever known will not initiate, they will fit in around a group of friends and grow louder and much more lively and will talk that way, that's their way, they don't like being left out in the open when initiating.Posted by TheCanBullAre you writing 9 times out of 10 the Scorpio will initiate or you will initiate.

No.. I asked if you think I'll be *able* to ?

Posted by ExplicitI don't think it's pride...nope..A fear of not being responded to properly. But then I initiate too...Also I don't... I don't know ?
It's a pride and fixed stubborn thing.

It's pride

Lol they might not initiate at first but once they get comfortable it's on.

Posted by ExplicitLol!! I think I initiate with someone who seem approachable ... Actually no! I can initiate with anyone...but I may or may not... Depends on how I'm feeling that day 😛Posted by TeenaPosted by ExplicitI don't think it's pride...nope..A fear of not being responded to properly. But then I initiate too...Also I don't...

It's more like feeling "I've done my job intitaing.. So you should take it from here" Because if they don't initiate even once after I initially did, I'd obviously feel they're not interested.

Posted by TheCanBullPosted by TeenaMakes so much sense why Cancer and Scorpio get on so well, Cancer will always tell you how much they love you, will tell you everything you need to know to keep things afloat and this is done in an intuitive manner, plus Scorpio can see the depths of Cancer too 🙂Posted by TheCanBullHaha...yup...

Yeah that's right . Though I'm not close to my dad I can really see how deep he is☺
Posted by AmethysstYou read it... I did back up. I hesitated because she became extremely possessive on our first date.
Scorpios have never had a problem initiating with me, if they desire to do so.
The way I see it, they're only going to initiate and put effort into something that is worthwhile.
I find them direct and clear in what they want. Now if they sense hesitation on your part, that maybe where they step back.
Thank you for that.
What about Scorpio relatives, why do you think Scorpio relatives don't initiate conversations first? If I call we will talk for a long time, but only if I call. My Scorpio aunt said "When you go to bed at night, know that I love you." Yet If I don't call, I would literally never hear from her.

Basically if you're a priority. Unless you are extremely close to them or part of their trusted group, you won't hear from them all the time.

Is it just the Scorpios I know, or do you all have trouble initiating communication? Is reaching out considered weak to you? I know a Scorpio woman who will not initiate communication with her own adult son. Please explain...
How can one explain something that is written in such a generalized and vague way?
Are you asking about her son or yourself and what does one have to do with the other?
Communication with a Scorp is not "one size fits all". What applies to one scenario/situation/person won't apply to another. It rarely does.
Posted by PhoenixRisingNo one complained about the question until now. 🙂 People seem to comprehend the question perfectly.Posted by communicator

Meh. Carry on.

I'm dealing with that now and it may be because I could be draining or he's just comfortable...feel him pulling away and seems like that's where I'm heading...I would still like to b friends but may not end that way...starting to think I just will end up alone meaning no one to actually confine in I see so many elderly ppl end up that way
Posted by Tirano24Posted by communicatorNo matter how much people hype this sign up it's a feminine, introverted sign with many insecurities. The more outgoing person will have to make the first move.

Libra or Sagittarius placements will help with being more outgoing.click to expand
Really? feminine introverted? That's sexy.

From observation, only (can't stress thst
enough), I've noticed that Scorps won't do for
you, what you can do for yourself.
If you're an adult, 9 times out of 10, you will be
treated like one-- if you need help, you're going
to have to ask for it.
Again just an observation.

@pisces4scorpio thank you for your extensive input. Yes you are right about the negativity; this one Scorpio I met was stunning, but she called herself "old". Have you been with a Scorpio in a relationship yet? How di the online experiences work out?

I can initiate with strangers or with shy people again and again. I can feel how uncomfortable they feel and I try to poke them until they relax.
With friends, lovers, people I date I initiate once and then wait. Then it's up to them. If they make the effort, I make the effort. It they stop, I stop. So I kinda mirror their behaviour and effort. Also, if I start seing red flags, like someone here mentioned it, I back off. Then you have to initiate again and again and again, until I feel comfortable again and can trust you.
Now with people who are real close to me (family, best friends etc.) I initiate even if they don't. It's not a problem for me if they don't do it for a month or so, it's no problem for them if I don't do it either. We know each other, we know how we operate. Complete trust, no problems initiating again or not.
