Scorpio a patronising sign?
This topic was created in the Scorpio forum by AzureBlue on Thursday, September 7, 2017 and has 4 replies.
Would this be a common trait of most Scorpios? Being patronising, I mean.
My ex-partner was this way inclined (a major turn-off for a brainy Sagittarius) and another guy I briefly dated for 3 weeks insisted he was always right. My father had a tendency towards being stubborn (although he had a Taurus ascendent) and would often patronise, but that is sometimes what parents do.
I'm simply curious because a former work colleague of mine (who is a very passionate and worldly) just criticized a comment of mine on Facebook in an extremely condescending fashion. I just replied back with good manners, nicely, and defended the comment assertively.
Any thoughts?

Yes, I've been very close to Scorpios my whole life, (all male,) and I definitely would say they are known to patronize. They take pride in their brutal honesty, as well as their infatuation with raw, emotionless logic and reason. Some Scorpios patronize purely for their entertainment, to get underneath your skin. They're basically just "Savage"
Hi, I appreciate what you're saying but we're not talking about other signs we're talking specifically about Scorpios.
I know the supposed strenths/weaknesses of my sun sign (and myself individually) so that's not really what I'm inquiring about. In fact, I nearly didn't mention my sun sign because I thought somebody would predictably jump on that as a quick deflection to the question being posed.
Sagittarians will often not realise they are coming across in this manner, or they are not being intentionally patronising just stating factual information or to debate. They don't mean to demean somebody it's just more of a natural warrior reaction. But yes, it's a trait to be worked upon. I don't believe anybody can "know-it-all" that really would be virtually impossible.
Scorpios just don't seem to care about the persons feelings and seem to need to act mightier to validate themselves by acting in a condescending manner (thus feeling superior). This very often involves subtle put-downs. That is a more negative action and purposefully aims and attempts to discredit another person. At least that is the impression I get.... But this wasn't supposed to be a contest

Why do you act clingy and attached and then when the girl becomes attached, you guys back off?
Why do you hide your feelings? To that one person who actually cares about you?
When you finally open up emotionally, then why do you go back to your shell?

I want to change thinking of things so negatively all the time. I have a constant feeling that nothing will ever work out and things that seem too good to be true probably are not true..
How can I change this way of thinking.. forever..

In spirit of virgo season, I want to know what some of your fantasies are. I asked my virgo hook up (scorp venus, cancer mars) and he turned it around asking what I want.
This is a safe space. NO ONE BE MEAN TO THE VIRGOS IF THEY OPEN UP.
Please share

I'm thinking of encouraging my boyfriend to see other girls.
One reason is because I feel he is inexperienced in the sense that he hasn't had many relationships with other women. Sure, it's great that he wants to settle comfortably into a relationship
