While I fully support encouraging someone and supporting them, I certainly don't want to be an ego boost...
I have asked... He changes the subject or gives cryptic answers

This cryptic Scorpio simply does does not know what he wants. He likes the way things are now. If he didn't he would tell you in no uncertain terms. Its not really Scorp MO to spend a considerable amount of time with someone who he doesn't at least like as a friend. Honestly, I wouldn't expect that move into relationship territory at this point.
If a Scorp man wants you, he will claim you in no uncertain terms. IF you would like to have a relationship with this guy, you shouldn't be so available and you should have an air of mystery around you. The downside is that he may never want you as more than a talk-buddy. But, hey, at least you are not emotionally invested yet.
Good luck.

Geez, I have so many questions! lol.
From what you have posted here, I think you are just friends. I mean, the sex happened ONCE 7 months ago. Other than that, just talking, right? Or do you make out or whatever?
What were the circumstances that led to the sex? Were you drunk or what?
Did you ever talk about the sex after it happened? Have you ever talked about having more of a romantic relationship with him?
If not, honestly I think it's a bit late for that.
I'd just continue talking as friends but as Intrigued said, I wouldn't make myself very available for him. I'd have a hard time taking him seriously.

I'm so confused. I hate being confused. Just wish I could figure him out. On the outside he's very alpha, confident, dominant, quiet, stern.... On the inside I don't really know. I know his actions sometimes show a honest tried and true friend who would go to great lengths for people he cares about. He's a hard worker, excellent father, and I thoroughly enjoy his no BS brutal honesty. But, I still can't figure out where I stand with him! And he shows no signs of ever telling me.

We started out as friends. Texting mostly. Conversations go on endlessly rolling from one day right in to the next. Countless topics. Like good buddies and I was fine with that. Then, I noticed whenever he would bring up meeting a woman or something, I didn't like it. Wasn't sure why. He always talked to me like "one of the guys" so me having that reaction over new interests of his was not typical of me. I'd usually give him dating advice or whatever. So, predicting I might have been falling for him I stopped contact. 2 months went by and we started talking again. I got my head on straight by then, no falling. Or so I thought. I slept with him. Didn't expect anything as far as 'feelings'.. Just sex. That was 7 months ago and the only time. Fast forward to the present, we continue to text nonstop, even as I'm typing this. At this point I just want to know where I stand.. Friend? Used for sex? Something more? Maybe nothing, just filling his time? Idk

So, Scorpios, where do I stand with him? What does he want from me? God knows he won't tell me....click to expand

Ask him what he wants.

The sex. We talked about it frequently and openly.. Then figured it'd be fun between us (we are both in to some 'non mainstream' things) so scheduled a day to get together. It was incredible. We fooled around one other time. He always wants to have more. He also likes to talk about the specifics of things we did, in a good way. The cynical side of me just tells him "of course you want more, you're a guy"click to expand

I was all wishy washey with my wife the first month we dated.
One day she just basically said "Where the fuck is this going. I really like you. I know you like me. Time for you to shit or get off the pot"
I knew I loved her right then and there.

I've only seen "possessive" once. Learned my lesson and don't mention males anymore.
I'm not good at this stuff. The whole making the first move/being directly direct might lose me a friend. Idk...

Yeah but you can't hold back on them. If y'all are going to be friends, he'll figure it out and then you might lose him anyway because he will be mad.click to expand

Well fwiw, mine never gets mad for saying the truth. Well, he gets mad if he doesn't like it sometimes, but he gets over it. Lol.
But it drives him absolutely crazy when I hold back or put on my "tough girl" act. I get in trouble, haha.
Especially since yours says all he wants is honesty, and you seem pretty close.click to expand

Haha, okay. Again, this is not the same as "I like you. A lot. I want to pursue something with you. Do you want to pursue something with me?" Or something like what the crazy Rabbit's wife said. Cheers to her btw. I like people that are direct. Good luck chicka!

He wants to eff you. Mind fucking you first is like appetizer.

I was not trying to be patronizing or mean with my above post, btw. I honestly meant it as advice. You said you are a Virgo, and I find that we as Virgos usually have relationship issues stemming from the above reasons.
If this does not apply to you however, then please accept my apologies as I try and gracefully exit.
Posted by scorchedearth
if you don't ever want to be in a relationship again why are you worrying about it so much? if you're fine just banging him sometimes and being his friend the rest of the time then just do it. you're over complicating things given what you said your boundaries are.
do you always over think this way?

No sandwiches.. Sandwichs lead to wanting to clean his house, clean him, and tucking him in... Among other things.. Lol
Well....if you're a Virgo that makes sense lol.
