the truth behind the myth (Page 2)

the truth behind the myth

Behind most Myths is a kernel of Truth.

Mystery is at the heart of Scorpio. They are mysterious, and many are happiest solving mysteries. The secret, the hidden, has a special appeal for them; and yet, many also have deep-seated insecurities, so they have to Know certain things, too...

You gave a list of contradictions, and you're right about them - not just my opinion, but the astrologers as well...

If you know that you don't like dealing with these contradictions, then seek a romantic partner from some other Sign. Most Scorps are not gonna change for you - and that's no myth!

IMHO, that's another thing Scorpio & Virgo have in common - Tough Love!

Oh yes, and both Signs seem to draw more than their fair share of bashing posts on DXP...

"if we open up...we are no longer a challenge,
if we dont open up, ...we have something to hide therefore we can not be trusted...
if we make love to you easily...we are cheap...
if we dont...we dont love you enough....
if we are kinky in bed and go with the flow, we are hoes and have done it with everyone else...~
if we are not...we are boring....."
I like this, it's so true and funny. walking on eggs.they respect strenght, though. I saw this with my own eyes.
Well, I dont' know what to say, in the end.
"My scorpio" has been a liar (the biggets liar), but also he wento on the verge of suicide to... keep the point, I guess. (the point og having lied, having been unmasked - by me -, and having ruined his image). thi is something I kind of admire, being able to go to the limits. btu, eventually, I get bored.
maybe one can "keep" a scorpio, play with him/love him too, but, you know... some air with a Leo, or a Cap, onec in a while? at least that's the predicament in which I found muyself now.
oh, they cheat. if they don't, not yet.

"So while you are deciding, we are looking for someone who does know what they want. Is that cheating?"

I have some issues with that. What about those of us who want solid commitment, demonstrate we want solid commitment, and still get fucked over by a Scorpio? Is this just a bad apple in general? It seemed you were saying before that in general, all Scorpios have a modus operandi to cheat, regardless.

He asked me for the commitment, so yeah, I'm assuming he wanted to be in the commitment. The shit just hit the fan yesterday, so give me a minute, aight? If you can just bounce when your heart's been stepped on, more power.

And if you don't want to be quoted, best to keep ya motherfucking mouth shut. Those were YOUR words and I'm using them to twist shit.

"That is anyways what cheating means right..but cheating reflects their character"


Alright, let me specify - If you have cheated on a scorp in a committed relationship you have ultimately killed the relationship. It's dead - if the scorp then chooses to screw someone else as a result, is that cheating?

Let's say a scorp wants a solid committment from you, but you keep dancing around that and are "unsure" - which typically means there's someone else in the picture, or you are not ready for a committment. So if you are dancing around - why do you even care who we are sleeping with? You either want a committment or you don't. "I don't know" isn't in our vocabulary. So while you are deciding, we are looking for someone who does know what they want. Is that cheating?

Again - YOUR words, not mine.

Ahh, I don't think that's right, VGM. She's hurting. People get emotional, esp. fire signs. I can't say I don't understand her frustration. Scorpios are hard and not for everyone. When you care a lot about someone you lose or might be losing, it's tough.

I think for the most part, Scorps follow form, really. I see shades of "typical Scorpio traits" in every Scorp I've ever met. In many ways, it's a shame that they get a bad rap, because they are the most honest people I've ever met - every one of them. It was really refreshing to see and experience.

VGM, how can you tell the difference, though? My Scorp cut me dead for a month, and now we're engaged. I think it's somewhat touch and go. I'm not specifically thinking about Nalah's situation, but just in general. I guess you have to trust your gut, then.

I think logic is cool, but people are individuals first, sun signs second, I guess. Though Scorpionic traits are real, there is no one-size-fits-all, IMO.

I'm so glad you find it cool to kick a brokenheartd person when they're down. How special for you.

Aww, Nala, I know you're hurt girl, but don't get so melodramatic. 🙂 Personally, I don't see it as dire as all that. The way I see it is this - when you posted your topic a couple days ago, people like Elena told you that he was having issues with you moving ahead and needed to think, he even told you that. But you pushed it and pushed it. Could he be getting down with another girl? Yeah, maybe, but more likely he threw that at you to hurt you for not respecting his wishes - i.e. space to think.

I could be wrong, but what makes me think probably not is the thing that VGM and OFA seem to be overlooking, and maybe it's a small point - he called you back. Trust me, and I know this - if you're cut off to a Scorpio, you could send carrier pigeons, skywrite, whatever, and they will ignore your ass. He called you when he felt like calling you and he lied - or you think he did. Personally, I have been signed on to myspace, facebook and whatever else while dead to the world, but let's assume you are right - if it's a wrap for him, why lie? To spare your feelings? Why? If he's gonna dip, why bother? This is only my guess - I am no Scorpio expert but this is what I think. He needed some time away from you. You wouldn't listen, so he started "making" you listen by drawing away from you and taking away your "goodies" (phonecalls at certain times and all that) without completely withdrawing, hoping you'd get the hint. My belief is that if you tell him it's done, he will be hurt to the core because you DIDN'T GET IT. But he will be rid of you without a backward glance. If you persist in trying to get in contact, then he will be upset and possibly dip down the road. He may be thinking, like VGM said, but he may be seeing when and if you get the "point." If you want this man, please listen to Elena and just back off. Just do it. If you don't want him, then be upfront with him that his attitude doesn't meet your needs and at least try to end it amicably. He is who he is - I think more than anything, he's trying to see how deep you "feel" him. You're failing in his eyes, but he keeps in contact because, I think, he sees potential. And I only say that because if you're so sure he wants the other girl you said in your thread, you would be out of the picture completely. Scorpios don't do double duty when they think they found someone special. You'd be 100% gone if he was really into the other girl.

VGM, I wasn't attacking your position or your sun sign. I'm an Aries/Taurus having been born on the cusp. I understand the fire sign quick temper. I believe Nala was lashing out at you out of hurt and frustration, not lack of respect. It all might be the same to you, I don't know. I didn't say you had no right to defend yourself, but I just felt that Nala's reaction was so emotional and over the top, especially given what she posted in her last thread, that it would be obvious that she was speaking from a place of hurt and not logic. It's up to you, though, whether you want to deal with it or not. I don't understand how you got the impression I thought otherwise.

I believe for the most part logic is logic. If you slack on your job and get fired, it's not because your boss is a sun Cap and hates slackers - it's because you yourself is a slacker and many slackers who don't shape up lose their jobs. That's logic. But this is an astro board and logic doesn't always necessarily apply here. If most people, myself included, took our relationship woes to a "mainstream" relationship board, 100 people out of a 100 would be telling us to dump the motherfucker already. But I'm engaged to the guy many people would have told me to dump. Many people here have managed to work things out with Scorpios who "vanished." So logic doesn't always apply in all cases. But I do think that if people don't want to hear a variety of opinions, they should not open themselves up on a forum like this.

Virgogotme, you can kiss my motherfucking ass. Martyr that, ok, hun? And Anna Barrett, you can keep your pscyhoanalysis to your damn self. This chick he is probably pushing up on has already TOLD him that her next boyfriend is gonna pay for everything, gas, lights, her two kids, for her to get her weave done, clothes, EVERYTHING, because in her mind that's all men are good for, so if that's what he wants, to be used by some stank, brokedown hoe that disrespects him so much that she'd say to his damn face then he can kiss my fucking ass too.

^^^^I've had several Scorpio friends and once they stopped taking calls from a flame, it was o-v-e-r^^^^

really? but they would also ignore the calls when they are in their own lil world /doing their deep thinking right..

i was wondering.. will a scorpio man tell the girl directly when he no longer wants to be with the girl?? or will he just walk away without a word ?
