I won't bore you with the whole story, but my (f24) Scorpio ex (m24) broke up with me at the beginning of May. We had had some trust issues, which was my fault, and we had stopped talking for a week in March, but then he came back, and I guess we tried again, and he was really trying to look past what I did. I did everything in my power to regain his trust and show him that I wasn't my mistake, but I guess it wasn't enough and was becoming too much for him. We broke up on May 11th, he had blocked me on social media but then unblocked, and we saw each other again on May 13th, then ended things permanently, and then saw each other again on May 31st. He was still flirting with me; we took a shower together, watched a movie, and blah blah. We made plans to see each other the next weekend (my birthday), but then he bailed and just never responded. I ended up getting mad and sending him a Venmo for our food with his words, "I never go back on my word." Very stupid, I know. I've since genuinely apologized but yeah, nothing on his side, which I understand. He still has me unblocked on social media and has not responded to any messages I've sent him. The last time I contacted him was July 10th, and since then, I've been in no contact, and yeah, I feel like I should move on, but I miss him dearly. I'm even at the point of wanting to message his sister but I know it'll make things worse so yeah keeping no contact and then thinking of saying happy birthday in November. Idk

Sorry, this is super long, but I just need to face reality and hear that he isn't ever coming back, I guess.

Me: Gemini sun, cancer moon, cancer venus, leo rising, taurus mercury

Him: Scorpio sun, moon, mercury, and rising (YEAH- you can only imagine the intensity in our relationship), libra venus ."

When trust is broken you can't just magically get it back. It takes time, consistency, patience, and willingness to forgive and be vulnerable again. I don't doubt he gave it his all, but there isn't a quick fix. You getting impatient and snappy with him probably triggered him. Hence him going cold.

But based on the patterns here... he will be back for round 3.

Stop trying to force or manipulate the situation.. the ball is in his court, your only option now is to let the ball go. You have done more than enough at this point and you can’t control his actions or manipulate a response out of him. It’s only going to work against you if you keep persisting.

No one can really say what the Scorpio will do, but I can tell you that you need to accept the current situation for what it is and stop overextending yourself.

He gave you a second chance and that backfired on him so he’s got to spend some time alone assessing if he can make himself vulnerable enough for a third or not. There’s no telling what he will decide. Best course of action is to focus on working on yourself. Because they real way to apologize is to correct the behavior and not repeat the same mistakes. Only then will you have a chance at redemption. Trust is #1 for him so can he trust you again? That’s what he has to answer for himself. It’s best to show him some respect and leave him be.
