What is it about Scorpio women?

This topic was created in the Relationships & Astrology forum by SweetPoetess on Thursday, October 17, 2013 and has 23 replies.
I know a LOT of Scorpio women either as friends or acquaintances. Some of the descriptions I've heard is that they are characteristically sultry, sexy, possessive, determined, passionate, private, and intense. While I agree and have seen much of that...I have heard from many men who have dated or married Scorpio women that while they seem alluring while dating, they often aren't so much once married or in a relationship. I've also heard over and over that once the "infatuation" stage is over, the sex isn't explosive or even all that great. Most Scorpio women I know, never seem to have a problem getting a man (over and over), but can't keep one...usually they are either "ball-busters" lol or they are so contentious the relationship ends somehow. The ones that are married are not happily married and neither are their husbands, but usually are very much in control of EVERYTHING in the relationship.
So I just wanted to know overall - What have been some of your observations of or experiences with Scorpio women in relationships? Why are they pegged as being so alluring?
It's part of the scorp conspiracy to take over the world...
Currently successful in the western world where the invention of Valentines Day ensured that there is in increasing number of scorpio's born. In fact the odds of you meeting a scorpio is now 1 in 2 peeps according to recent DXP statistics.
To suck the other 50% in we have the first scorpio myth of being alluring sex gods. Therefore all the other signs are in awe of our prettily packaged stingers and can't wait to get their hands on us.
Owing to our inherent understanding of basic human pyscholgy and the laws of supply and demand some scorp's will take one for the greater good, and never settle down and/ or marry to keep up the second myth of being unobtainable.

I think she is just being crabby...!!! Te hee, sorry- couldn't resist.

Libras, Virgos, and Scorpios really work well together, because they all have the same personality traits. Sneaky, Covert, Manipulative, and Selfish. Of course all prettily packaged.


"Coincidentally" those Sun signs tend to share Mercury and Venus placements, lol.

I know
I've heard
I have I've also heard over and over
Most Scorpio women I know,
So I just wanted to know overall -


What you need to do, is observe the above, and ask yourself when someone tells you something do you believe it? Or when you say "I know" do you really?


No, I don't dislike Scorpio women at all. Actually, I usually get along really well with them. It's an observation about Scorpio women I know personally and some of the common conversations from men who have been involved with Scorpio women.

Cancers belong to the Me, Me, Me section of the zodiac belt... Aires, Taurus, Gemini , and cancer have more tendencies to be more selfish just because of this Me, Me, Me, Me section in the zodiac
I like Scorpio women...but, when they start swinging their stinger around, I take cover.
True. Scorps are like Aquarians in that they often change. There's the Scorpio you met in the beginning, & then there's the Scorpio you get once the commitment has set in. 2 different people sometimes. And sometimes their partners aren't as accepting of that b/c they feel they fell in love with how the Scorp initially was in the beginning.
Even if who they turn into later is still good, some people don't respond well to change simply b/c change to them, symbolizes that the person must've hid their true colors.
It's not that, it's just that many people have many different sides to them & sometimes it takes awhile or a specific person to bring out those sides.
No one is ever 1-dimensional
But b/c Scorpios show their personality traits with such strong passion & conviction, people strongly believe that there's no toning those traits down or changing them! How could somebody so sexually passionate & aggressive suddenly turn into this reserved lover, right??! lol
Two of the scorp women i know basically lose their personalities while in relationships, and not in a good way. Both will take emotional abuse, and will cut friends out/ignore you if you say anything...and they are jealous, possessive and needy when it comes to their asshole men. It's mind boggling and incredibly frustrating to watch... One of them i have been friends with since grade school and will always be close to, but the other is starting to grate my nerves with this "everyone else is crazy, not me" thing. People of all signs can be like that though.
The third i know is my great-aunt who's 61 and thrice divorced, but she's just all around mean and nasty(thinks she's sweet as pie), always has been. She's very different from the younger scorps i know... seems like the result of trauma/abuse in her youth to me though, but i don't know for sure.
Like someone else said, it's probably that they have just chosen the wrong partners. Bad relationships bring out the ugliest traits in people.
@ANRivas: wow, if scorpio women multi-faceted personality is frustrating; then your right , guys should stick to a more 1-dimensional personality type of woman and be happy....after all that's what life is about?

Clearly, you don't know Scorpio's well at all. In fact most of us, and I'll speak for myself personally DESPISE people who you just described.
I can relate to that. I??m a scorpion and I find it difficult to find the right guy I??m comfortable with and commit to. Its all goes well in the beginning the fun and jokes and then it just doesn??t go anywhere after. There have been times where I find the guy boring, we clash or it??s the lack of effort. I am a loving caring woman but I??m finding it hard to settle in a relationship.

i don't think i even implied that having a multi-faceted personality is a bad thing...and it isn't just "scorpio women are just complex and everyone else is 1-dimensional." There are plenty of complex women who don't do 180s when in relationships...The multi-faceted personality is not the issue.
Here's that everyone-else-is-wrong-not-me thing i was talking about.lol

This is the group that's out pulling people from buildings, helping the sick or giving ideas on how to better your life.
These are the people that are often not appreciated.
Many Cancers put out a lot of energy into helping other people.
Do you honestly think I won't take time to consider myself every now and then?
The same with Aries, always out doing something to better someone else, but people bitch and moan when they want something for themselves. And yes that usually means they want you to verbally acknowledge their greatness. LOL
I had an Aries girlfriend once, she found out I was having financial trouble.
She put some things on hold to help me out and to see that I wanted for nothing.
If she wanted to have a parade in her honor then so be it!
I'm noticing something with Scorpio's they seem to only see half way beyond the surface then create their own idea of what's lying in the depths. Things are not always how you imagine them to be.

well that sounds like someone who "hides" themselve well for their supposed signifcant other then all of a sudden because they "faked' themselves to be with that person, the TRUE person comes out during the relationship. it should be, in reality all of their facets be shown before commitment. nothing is hidden and nothing is fake.
Put everything on the table, say it like it is: this is me, this is how i am, ect if you dont like it, and it grosses you out. leave. but it's too hard for alot of people because they want to be with that certain people so i guess they 'pretend'. but then, the other person who can't figure out that person before committing is kind of just in his/her dreamworld maybe.
I would suggest living together before marriage to see how they fare, but even then, that's not even good.

exactly!! there is a difference between putting your best foot forward when dating and hiding who you are. You can be really honest about yourself without "telling your whole life story on the first date."

Lol.
Oh yes. My husband knew everything the first date too. heehee.
Told him, Listen honey, i'm bipolar, get moody, start high school fights, but really super demure at times, don't like PDA, but secret little places, and oh yes, if you've got the money honey....J/k.

If you introduce your would be beloved to your family first, and they are blabbermouths, there's nothing one can do. *sigh*
Ladies, i'm teasing btw. (just in case)
it's the red velvet cake. Have some.
i've done drive-by introductions...meet him at the car window and talk for 3 minutes so they feel like they're in the loop but don't have enough time to scare him off Big Grin
