scorpio's hold on too long?

does anyone else feel like scorpio's are destined to always hold on to the past and prior relationships? i was in a really long relationship off and on, because we were in college a far away from eachother for most of the year. because of this, we dragged it out, trying to hold on to eachother when we were both growing in two different directions but it finally ended six months ago.she is a pisces... and after we ended things, we stopped talking for 5 months. recently we started talking again, because we were madly in love and best friends. but, relationships change, people change, and now i think back on it and wonder if i will ever find another serious relationship as good as it was with her....am i being a baby, or does any other scorpio think they hold on to the past too much? also, i think it might be because i was 17, and she was my first girl...but shit, it seems like the more you love and lose, the more you are jaded and pessimistic...and less likely you are to fall in love. any insights?
aloha,

Leiana,

I'm a female scorp and yes, I know for a fact that I hold on to former relationships and people for a really long time. Not necessarily physically, but emotionally, and sometimes only in my own mind. Th I try to tell myslef "hindsight is 20/20" and that the past is the past, no sense dwelling on it. However, I do tend to think about things a lot, and especially about people who had a major impact on me. Occassionally I am able to cut off quickly and painlessly, but it's rare and only if the person betrayed me in some way or did some unforgivable (in my eyes) thing to me.

My "first" was when I was 17 also, and I carried a torch for him for about 2 years afterward. The thing is, looking back, I could have turned that "1 night stand" into a relationship if I had wanted to. I just would have had to have moved 500 miles. I wanted to finish school at the time, and not move that far that fast. He told me to come back in a year, so we could get married. I never responded to that comment, but he called me several times after I went back home, and told me that he wanted the best for me and the best was to finish school. So at the time I was relieved but looking back I've always wondered if I made the right decision in letting things "fizzle out" I guess. See? Now I'm dwelling again...lol...great. ha ha.

Well I just wanted you to know you're not alone with this phenomenon : )
