When asked to be left alone?

When you show mercy to someone and calmly let them know to leave you alone for a while and they still try to talk to you, what do you do?
I become colder and just feel that they do not exist until I want to handle them.

I never ask people to leave me alone, I just simply stop looking at the phone, and go into my room, and if people in my house notice I'm alone they sometimes bother me, so I act shorter than usual and they get the point. But if someone kept bugging me I'd maybe just be as quick as possible, and they usually pick up, but if they don't I get irratable and say something, but I don't like to ignore people.

Yea I do that too, though there are people that I try to spare them from my "wrath", so to speak, because I'm very sarcastic and will say short simple things that provoke things to get worse (trying to control my confrontational side) because I find that they are wasting my time and energy that I am able to put into someone who should of known that they've fucked up with me. I tell them I'd rather not speak to them for a while collect my thoughts and feelings where I do not have to bother with them, and for them to THINK about what they've done, rationalize it, and then have a logical conversation about the issues.
But EVERY TIME I do that to someone, they think between 2-3 days is enough and continue with their stupidity and have to point out WHY they're right or justified.
I'm just curious to people being too attached to other Scorpios as they do to me or have any similar situations to this.

Well I've always felt Libras are intelligent. Dispite the sad truth that my first love was a Libra female. Lol.
They do weigh things out and is seemingly more likely to know what can be wrong with us Scorps and attempt a good mending solution.
Other than that, I just get harassed by "Are you okay?" "Hi, I hope your weekend goes well." "I have been thinking about you."
All I want to here from them is... "I know I may have fucked up with you and I am sorry.... ect."
Is that asking a lot or am I the one being irrational?

They are mostly just misunderstandings. If someone has genuinely screwed up, imagine they must feel ten times worse about themselves than you already do about them.

When you think about it from their side it doesn't seem like such a big deal. Plus if they try to out-awkward you in the next conversation, the trick is just to make them feel ten times more awkward about it until they give up the goods.

Lol. I don't become awkward though. They just try to reel me in play the victim, which is annoying to no end, and say how meeeaan I was.
If I'm wrong I always man up and say I was and I have no excuse or reason for it.
But Jeus Christ, it's stupid because I tell them EXACTLY what they did wrong, how it affected me, give them options even to try to fix it.
I think that when I tell them leave me alone. Yea I'm using my Icy side because I'm not their fucking father to hold their hand merrily down the lane gazing at picket fence housing.
It's like realize what you did and why I'm doing this to you. Like a grown version of time out.
Some see it as a mind fuck or being manipulative when it's not.

Oops sorry I didn't realize his was in the scorpio thread.....

Is this in regard to the Pisces you never answered my question about?

Regardless, my answer would be, you do everything in your power to avoid them. (block, delete etc..)If you can't do that or have the strength to put them into non-existence until you're over your spell, don't whine.

No, its more of a general thing that happens to me from friends and relationships. It just made me curious to why it happens. And what I meant through "this is why I'm doing this to them" means that I'm not willing to just plainly start scolding, yelling, and making them feel like shit because they made me mad or upset. Emotional response to me should be controlled and used as seldom as possible, due to more problems that can arise and the illogical and irrational part of you can make you look stupid to go to the Scorpio extreme.

And "whining"? How does that relate to my being curious? That pieces I handled and appreciate the feedback and had adjusted accordingly. The topics I may ask about is in no relation to the Pieces or to complain. So if you take me as a complainer I respectfully suggest to simply disregard and save your energy.
I don't have many close Scorpio friends so to seek understanding or having SOME people on the same page as me, or something that I could learn from and vice versa, then I ask what's wrong with my curiosity?

i turn off phones
do not answer emails
and i completely shut
them out until i feel
like communicating again.

See that? You get it. It's like shutting the lights out.

Simple.

Libra - unpredictable. Sometimes I'll ignore them, sometimes I'll be persuaded to re-engage again, sometimes I explode almost violently, sometimes I'll just remind them that I had asked for some space.

It's really a roll of the die. 25/25/25/25.

i know. so why
is it so difficult
for some others?
this i do not get.

A Cancer explained to me years ago that 'My phone is there for MY convenience; not the caller's.'

It really is that simple, I agree.


Seems the OP is speaking of the principle, though-- not a feeling of unfounded obligation.
