I'm a Scorpio who had a short-lived romance with a Virgo after being friends for a short time. At first, we spent all of our free time together and had an intimate relationship. He introduced me to his family (he never met mine). Virgo and I connected and enjoyed being together. We never argued or disagreed. We had interests in common. About a month later, I sensed he was starting to pull away, and we spent less time together. We are both busy people, so I didn't think anything of it at the time. Once, while drunk, he introduced me to his friends as "the love of his life". I looked at him like "huh?" I wondered if he really felt that way. Later, after being together 3 months, I sensed things were different. He had a frantic work schedule, so I wrote it off to him being overwhelmed with all he had going on. After a few weeks of weirdness (the "pulling away"), he told me that he didn't want a committed relationship and he never wanted a girlfriend (uh...he's in his early 40's and has been married twice). He said things were too serious between us. He told me to go out with other guys. I told him I had already made plans to go out with the guy I had been seeing before him anyway...since things just weren't right anymore even though I still cared deeply for Virgo. I'm a passionate Scorpio with the right guy, and Virgo matched my passion until he fizzled out. There were never any hard feelings between us...just a flame that had spontaneously ignited was put out by his extinguisher. I just didn't get it, but had no problem moving on since we had little history. He calls me his "best friend" now and doesn't appear to want a romantic relationship. When we are together, we are just friends like we were before our short-lived romance. It's odd that he could just turn off what we had together without what appears to be a concrete reason.

I fell for Virgo, so I would be open to rekindle what we once had. So...the question is...what's up with Virgo??

Icky inside...that's mature. I never told him or put in the post that I wanted a committed relationship.



Ick = Emotional

You did not have to tell him.

Guess that means that all Virgos are immature and jump to conclusions?



Look who's talking!

Please respond only if you have something intelligent to offer, Cajunspirit.

How very ungrateful.

A Virgo says what they mean and mean what they say.
Scorpios always think people have alterior motives and dark secrets, because that's how they are.

He told you he did not want a relationship and you call my reply unintelligent because I pointed out the obvious.

Wait a second. Let me be grateful. First I have to interpret your answer. Icky=emotional. So that means Scorpio makes Virgo emotional inside and Virgo does not like to express feelings. If that is what you meant, that is an intelligent answer and I apologize. Virgo needs to be more straightforward to be understood. Once again, I did not tell Virgo I wanted a committed relationship nor was it ever discussed. That was in Virgo's head, not Scorpio's head.

I was looking for information on "pulling away"...which is a theme I read about Virgo's. Virgo started something and went cold turkey. Now that you say icky=emotional that makes sense. My male friends told me that it "scared" him. Just not something I'd expect of someone in his early 40's. If he's not emotionally mature, it's better off to just stay friends.

emotional? I'm assuming with the "ick" comment, you mean that in a bad way? What kind of emotions do Scorpios rile up in Virgos?



Not a bad way, I just don't like feeling emotions 😛

Typical Scorpio, quick to take offense and lash out.

Then tell me, what was in your head?
Casual dating?

I don't know any Scorpios into anything but serious committed relationships.

We pull away when we are not sure.
We pull away when we need space or time for ourselves.
We pull away when we are not appreciated.
We pull away when we don't find the other person is making an effort on par with ours
Some of us pull away when we don't like or want emotional attachment.

Take your pick, for all you know it might be all of the above.

Some of us are emotional babies, completely immature in this respect. Like me 🙂

"Typical Scorpio, quick to take offense and lash out."

Love the generalization of Scorpios. I read that Virgos are judgmental. Huh. If you say what you mean and mean what you say, why didn't you say emotional instead of ick in the first place. Ick is like yuk. If someone told me I made them feel yuk inside, I wouldn't want to be around him. Like I didn't want to be around your comment. My Virgo never offended me and he is not judgemental. We got along great and still do as friends.


"Then tell me, what was in your head? Casual dating? I don't know any Scorpios into anything but serious committed relationships."

Casual...you got it. Virgo made it turn serious fast and I quit dating an Aries because of it. I matched that seriousness and that made it "too serious" for him. I'm back to my fun Aries. But Virgo calls me his "best friend".


"Some of us pull away when we don't like or want emotional attachment."

I think you hit the nail on the head. He got a taste of it and decided he didn't want it. It could be why he's been divorced twice.


"Some of us are emotional babies, completely immature in this respect. Like me 🙂"

Good for you to admit it. Just put it in the instruction manual for someone who wants to date you.

Because that's how being emotional feels to me, yucky!

Possibly. Or maybe the divorces made him this way.

Haha, I do, I do 😛

Hey 10scorpio10 and DangSing Scorp, this guy(Cajun) is like this!!!He doesn't see anything wrong with his Virgo breed, which means he only points out what Scorpio did wrong and is blind to see the Virgo flaw.



Of course I see their (and Mine) flaws, but I can't talk to them can I?
I can only talk to you guys on here.

This Virgo man thinks that being unemotional makes them much more intelligent. That is what they believe blindly. But, like every human being, they do have emotions. It's just that they have this belief that emotions are pathetic and for the weak. They're weak anyways, they just think they're perfect, LOL!

aquilascorpiusfemina...you get it and for THAT I am grateful!

I didn't feel used, particularly because my Aries had been seeking me during the time that Virgo and I were together. I just told my Aries that I was available again. It's easy to not feel hurt when you have a situation like that. Aries is interested in something only casual, not a committed relationship. (So there, Cajunspirit!! lol)

I hope you got over feeling used, aquilascorpiusfemina. Life is too short to feel that way and we Scorpio women have options!! I bet we will both tread lightly around another Virgo we encounter!

I told Virgo that he overthought "us" and he said there was some truth to that. It was too serious in HIS mind. Just to be sure I was right, I took a "serious relationship" test on the net. What we had together didn't pass the serious test. It was not all that serious in my mind. It was casual, fun, and passionate. How serious can you be if you've been together for only 3 months? I know I can't be...that's too soon. But I did think that we would continue on and find out until he pulled the plug.

Cajunspirit, I didn't like you at first because of your ick comment. But I'm starting to like you! I think it's cool that you understand and can communicate that you have issues with emotion and that you're willing to tell someone who would date you! I'd rather know up front than have to figure it out on my own later. Knowing what you know about yourself, I hope you would never lead someone on and then suddenly pull the plug. I don't think Virgo led me on purposefully, he just doesn't understand himself and he's twice your age. He got caught up in the passion, and he prematurely overthought the seriousness of the relationship.

Being a Scorpio, I am highly intuitive. I think Virgo calls me his best friend so he can figure things out and start things up again when the time is right FOR HIM. (OMG...it's intuition...not me thinking he's got a deep, dark secret agenda!!) He'd have to do a WHOLE lot of figuring things out for me to consider him as a prospect for a committed relationship!! I don't do the hot and cold thing.

Seems like a Scorpio just rile up some passion, not saying its your fault or it's a bad thing. It just happens when you'll are around, and in a Virgo that can lead to bad things.
The passion from you scorpio woman can take over us virguys and things will moved a lot faster than it would normally move for us. Then when the passion dies down and/or logic comes back, it'll look around the brain and say "ick" (That's why ick=emotion in Virgo Handbook). Then logic will process the situation and we will either slow things down to normal virgo pace or break things off as a case of mistaken emotions. In your case its the latter. This is why I think you read online that Virguy and Scorp lady should stay as friends, because those emotions you make us feel can be mistaken as something more than it is.

Thanks for the "best friend" perspective, Kaleidescorp44. That appears to be where Virgo's head is. At the beginning, he told me that he considered not pursuing me because "I was out of his league". On several occasions, he told me that I was "too good" to him. I just replied back that I was "good" to him...meaning not "too". That's in keeping with the "not being good enough" aspect you mentioned. He's an over-thinker. I used to be one, so I understand that in him. I think you got it right when you used the word "understanding". I added my post beacause I wanted to understand what happened between us.

So what is your thinking on the subject Sorti?



Its quite obvious, B.

He's the type of virgo that is extremely generous and will place people on the "pedestal", so he can show them what it is he does in order show how much he admires you, but this type of virgo is usually the same type of guy who often has such a free flowing and selfless soul that they always drift away from what is actually good for him and attempt to help those that are terrible (toxic girlfriends, heart-broken women, drug addicts, foster children, and so fourth). They are usually the same guys who rhetorically question themselves why world filled with cruel people, but they can't notice that underneath all the people they have helped is a group of friends, family and supporters who are always there to help, but he remains a martyr (a man who suffers the pain for others) and continues to serve those whom aren't worthy (from the views of others)...

I have to admit, I am the one who fits this category much like your pal. I am blind to know that the things that makes me truly happy is always there, but I am too rebellious and stubborn to admit it, and I will find something in contrast to my real happiness in order to go against what I know is good and healthy. 😄

Why is it that a virgo can't tell people that they love people as much as other signs? Its because words loose value and true meaning unlike a project that they put some effort and work into because they know that the object they have created is a symbolism to the true feelings they have toward a person, and it also indicates that the object will never fade like meaningless words that has been exercised with previous lovers...

Although many virgos may not show affection when giving people what they have, the ones that do or the times they do, you will know and if not then you are clueless and will remain clueless.

You guys assume too much. I don\'t like the pisces that has came to my life in the past. I always wish that many people born under those dates never come out how i expect them and give me a brighter view of them, but so far a feb 26 dude, march 6 ( my lady), and a march 3 dude has made me see some bright light on you guys. 😄

Everyone else I have met in real life makes me want to slap them upside the head and yell at them for being such cry babies, but they would love it because they endure such pain of being tossed around.

Looks like 10Scorpio10 is offended because she got dumped by the Virgo, but she's pretending to be all casual about it. By all means, go back to the second-choice rebound like an immature lady, but that Virgo will always have the advantage over you now. That's what really irks you doesn't it? It grinds your gears cus you had feelings for him. But Scorpios have to understand; the Virgo male, once he matures, will always be on top.

What do you mean what's up with Virgo? Can you blame him? He's had two failed marriages, he's in his early 40's and he's done being married and was honest enough to tell you that and to move on. Be appreciative of his honesty and be glad he didn't drag you around for a few years. You wouldn't want to know later than sooner would you?
