It's been a minute since I've visited my family down in Texas, so I went last week and saw everybody. A few days after I arrived my aunt asked if I could help her move, and I didn't think much about it at the time, but maybe two days later we went to her house and began packing. She told me that she just couldn't afford the house anymore, and I felt so sad for her, especially since she has a husband. They've been married for about six yrs, and they have a 15yr old son together. Right after my aunt had her son they split and reunited after a few yrs and got married. Nearly everyone was against the marriage, especially my Capricorn dad, because the Scorpio was a childhood friend and they knew he was no good, and now I agree that they should have never gotten married.

My aunt, who is a Cancer btw, confided in my mom about what she's been going through these past years. He's been working off and on(more off than on) and she told my mom that he gets paid on Friday and is broke by Sunday. She said that she hasn't seen hardly any of the money since he's been employed. To make things worse, he's cheated on her the entire time they've been married with the same woman. She confronted the woman once, but that didn't help, so she's been depressed and this is just not what I'm used to from my aunt. Now she's loosing her beautiful home and is moving back in with my grandmother. My aunt was doing sooooooo good before they married. She was buying her 1st home, working at a good job, had a ton of confidence, and since he's come into the picture she's lost nearly everything including her car. I just feel so bad. My father tried to warn her, and even stopped speaking to her for a while before and after they married. If he knew that her husband had been cheating on her my dad would beat the brakes off of him, I'm 100% sure of that, just because he's very protective of his sister. She's kept so much from the family in fear of what they'd do to him, and out of embarrassment, I'm sure. I just pray for the best in her moving forward. She's a GOD-fearing Christian woman, and I know that it will eat her up to divorce, but I think she's at an ending point with him. I just don't understand why he would put her through all of this?? I really don't get it.

Yeah, I think he's spending it on the other woman too. I know for a fact though, that there's nothing my aunt could have done to provoke this type of behavior. My aunt is a little bossy, but that's her only flaw, in my eyes of course.

Even when we went to pack, he was gone. He was with his family in Louisiana, and he let dirty dishes all on the counters and in the sink. She's been gone from the house, HER house, for a while and just let him stay there alone, but that house was a mess. This is just all so different from anything my aunt has had to go through, and it's hard to see. I can't get over that.

I don't really think they are the best of providers, or too much of them. I'm not going to bash but I have heard a lot of them expecting the woman to do their part AND take care of them as well. Once they get used to being taken care of for some time they don't seem to know how to step up and provide or they just take it for granted that things will be fine because of the type of woman they have, she'll bounce back it'll be alright. They rely on whatever emotional connection they have with the woman to keep the relationship together and use that as something to dangle over her head if she starts getting fed up.
Out of 3 Scorpio men I know, only one can seem to do well taking care of himself. The other 2, live off of women and have been for years. If their main one isn't doing it, get another on the side, if she quits move to the next. It doesn't last long but they prey on weaker women who they know they can manipulate and control with the emotional bond they have with them and sometimes it forms fairly quickly. That's not what a relationship is about. Any real man wouldn't feel like a man if his woman was carrying all the weight.

"They rely on whatever emotional connection they have with the woman to keep the relationship together and use that as something to dangle over her head if she starts getting fed up."

So interesting that you mention this. My sister has a child by a Scorpio and one day they got into a fight at my aunts, which I was unaware of at the time, and he came over our house to get his things. I could tell he was heated but I didn't know what happened, so I let him in and he said "see, your sister would rather someone with money instead of someone that can really love her!" I was like okay, and he left..

Thing is, that's not my sister at all, especially not back then. She still til this day would not choose money over love, but he surely did seem to dangle that over her head and kept on over the years. Now she has a child by him and he doesn't have ANYTHING to give. He's living off of his girlfriend, who is an older Aries, and my sister gets money and help whenever he feels like it. I thought just yesterday that if she had a child by her friend who liked her for yrs things would be MUCH different.
