Why do scorpios always come back?

Why Do Scorpios Always Come Back

Scorpios tend to return because of their intense emotional depth and loyalty. They often struggle to let go completely and may reach out again to seek closure or reconnect. Their desire for deep emotional bonds makes it hard for them to move on easily, leading to repeated contact even after separation.

Whyyyy!!! Do they always come back? Scorpio sun moon and Venus. Someone with those placements seems to have a really hard time letting go completely. Do you go back? As in contact the person even if it's just an email—

what about a Scorpio Rising ? he has already told me that he tends to "stick with the same person" - I take it that is until she pisses him off cause he's told me about an ex gf that he dated for about 6 months after he was divorced - she tried to move into his neighborhood and tried to put the "straints" on him and he is not at all like that - bad move on her part but that's ok cause now I can enjoy all his fine-ness ... he is a very good man and faithful ! you know I like that if the man is a good man but I can surely understand that if he's not, that would present a problem ... I think they love so intensely that they just do not want to break that connection - I find that endearing and sexy and it makes me feel wanted by such a fine thing - what else do I need ? nuttin !

Sun and Moon...not venus...but I have no problems letting go.

...and of course, we are both lying

smh

Of course.

There's no possible way we don't confirm to internet stereotypes.

Yep, no possible way that could happen

So are you planning on stalking some of your exes this weekend?
I think i will compose a poisoned pen letter to one of mine.
What do you think?

Well I guess if I have to stop for groceries at the store down the street it might be considered stalking an ex since she works there 😆

In my experience as a Scorpio, there are two reasons that I would "come back around" with a former lover.

1) To sniff around their energy. Is their energy still in the same place as the last time or is it better or worse? You can gain a lot of information about someone when in person or on the phone. Real stuff. So checking in.

Or

2) I feel you have been thinking about me or lurking or whatever. You called me in in other words. If the person wasn't a complete asshole and I never want to talk to them again, I would quite possibly get in touch to see what's up.

However, me personally, if they are an ex (and I mean ex, ex not someone who we might be on a break. Someone who is over and done) I would never get in touch to get back together. That door is closed. FYI.

I do

For some reason I always thought that was because of my mars in pisces, no idea why.

My gem moon doesn't help either.

Any ideas how to stop the back and forth?

Why would anyone think I like this? It's absolute torture. I get over her and forget about her, she ceases to exist then returns to open up old wounds. It's heartbreaking.

Maybe she doesnt want to let go of the connection.
If you want to leave, I'd suggest to personally them how you feel and that you do not want any more contact.
It might hurt, but that's how my Scorp let me off.

I was curious for some insights considering I seem to do the same or did. Not anymore. But for a long time I wouldn't ever completely let go of them. Even if we didn't talk anymore they still had a certain place in my heart.

But thanks for the advice everyone.

I have far too much pride to come crawling back.

If I am still interested and said person contacts ME, I will respond. But I will be cold until I know they are serious. They will have serious work to do to re-enter my life.

However if something is ongoing and I am in a relationship, I will follow them to the ends of the earth and be loyal. Once that line is cut. There is a lot to make up for, and I will not lose my pride by looking like the weak one crawling back. I will act as though that person is no longer existent and already be on to the next! I crush easily, and it's easy for me to move on. I wont dote over it...unless they are persistently still coming back into my life.

Reading through the thread... what's the answer? I've been on and off with Scorpio man, he was juggling me (12 years) and his virgo (15 years). I left him 4 years ago, so he left her, and he's been single for the past 3 years trying to get me back.

Will he go back to her? Or stay with me?

It all depends for me. If I was done wrong, I may cut off all contact or barely reply (when they usually try to come back to me.) If I know I'm not wanted I'm definitely not gonna try to contact that person, but I guess if I was the one in the wrong and we broke up over something petty, then maybe just maybe I'd try to apologize and get back with them if it's worth it.

Dealt with a Scorpio Venus... This is true... Can't live with you, can't live without you... Next time don't acknowledge anything... That sting is painful !!

I am not trying to stereotype but my ex (or whatever the hell he currently is) doesn't let go. He is a Libra sun but has a stellium of 5 planets in Scorpio . And from knowing him for several years prior to us getting together, he was always contacting his ex's. Honestly, in my opinion and from watching him, he does it because he likes the attention and wants to see if he still has any emotional control over them, as well as missing the intimacy. Its extremely hard for him to open up and I feel like he hates losing that connection. He also has a lot of guilt about past hurts. He wasn't very nice to any of his ex's and I think he feels remorse which makes him contact them, too. I do notice flings he could give two shits about though and his definition of a "fling" is weird to me... one girl he dated for almost a year and considered her almost nothing.

I know a Scorpio female a lot like this. My advice move forward, never let back. Definitely don't let this person think he has any emotional control over you. He will abuse it.

As a scorpio female I have never contacted an ex. They call or get back in touch I hate it. Good bye!

This has been me too... 😕

Even if I do manage to become "friends" with them after they've contacted me years after... The feelings are COMPLETELY GONE. It's almost the very reason why the friendship isn't really a friendship, because they want more that there is.

Sorry OP, can't relate!

Hmmm, very interesting.

I think there are two kinds of Scorpio.

But then why bother to sniff out his energy? What would it matter?

Yes, I guess for me if I do that it means I still have feelings for them. That is if I loved them at one point.

What about Scorpio Mars? Do they tend to hold on?

I know a Scorpio Mars who's still in love with his ex 10 years later.

Oh wow...does he have hope they will rekindle their relationship?

click to expand

I guess so. He's just never been able to let go. He is in another relationship now. I asked him if he'd leave his current girl if the old one wanted him back and he said yes. But honestly I think if he got her back he wouldn't care anymore. I think he's more into
Wanting what he can't have.

Because life is fucking complicated and people do things for various reasons. Get over it.

Yeah this is an astrology site. Where we ask for each other's opinions on questions astrology related. Sorry you're too stupid to understand that.

Same situation with my Scorpio ex. He's been coming back around for 8 years, that would be fine if conversations were strictly friendly but they're not. He always finds a way to bring up sex or talk about old times or he'll say things like "You're still mine" Ummm No, no I'm not. He's had a girlfriend since we broke up. SHE is still his, I am not lol Recently I asked him not to contact me anymore, that I wanted to move on with my life without being regularly reminded of the past. 2 weeks later he sends me a text message..... "Hello!" as if that conversation never took place. I reminded him again that I wanted to be left alone and how does he reply? "Sorry I bothered you, I'll talk to you later" SMH He doesn't get it.
