I have this scorpio friend that has been going through a rough time. This economy hasn't been good to her and has forced her to move back with her family, since she has a son and another baby on the way.
I'm planning on visiting her soon since she is one of my closest friends and I'd like to give her some advice on how to improve her life and move forward.
Being a capricorn, I know I have the tendency to be brash and forward when giving advice. I might even get frustrated if I feel like my advice isn't being seriously considered.
But this is one of my closest friends and I really want to help her out of her situation. But I know that Scorpios can get offended and even cut people off if they feel like they're a negative influence on their lives. (I've seen her do this to other friends)
I'd just like some advice on how to approach her in a way that Scorpios find helpful.

I said he would decline if I offered him sex because I know he doesn't want me like that.I don't know why he's made advances and gets jealous but I know its not because he wants a relationship. I can just sense it.

What in particular is it that he needs to change?
I would say on the whole that people don't really change but then i guess some people do.
I suppose its when they change their whole mindset about the areas they are trying to change. For example a friend of mine changed her relationship with food because she realised the mindset she had was not benefitting her. She now concentrates to health rather than immediate gratification and comfort. I know that sounds like a bit of a far fetched example but hopefully you catch my drift. Lol.

OMG. The sideways-scuttle-Jedi-mind-sensing spiel is part of what I was talking about.

And to add to it fishy
What is morality based off of? Who sets the rules anyways?
I know where your going with the slippery slope of subjective justification. And, honestly when you make decisions that break rules or moral codes that only benefit yourself I would totally agree with you. When you act like your perception of reality is the only right reality your are heading in the direction of relativism and insanity... chaos.
BUT
At the same time following rules so rigidly no matter what the circumstances may be opens the doors for people to bend the rules and control you because they know you won't violate your supposed moral code. Following rules without reason is like being brainwashed. You following your rules of moral ONLY BENEFITS the abuser and no one else when it comes down to it.
If we lived in a utopia then yes breaking the rules are always wrong.
You could think about it scientifically like before the "abuser" broke and abused the rules to benefit his liking he was a part of the perfect utopia we all were enjoying before he violated the "moral line" as you say. And if we all just sit and continue to follow the rules we give this violator power...
The only way to bring order to the Utopia again is to bend the rules back. Kinda like for every action their is an opposite and equal reaction.
