Scorpio in Love and Relationships: Passionate, Magnetic, and Mysterious
Discover what Scorpio is like in a relationship
Scorpios are some of the most alluring people out there. Their energy just oozes sexuality!
But these intense Scorpions aren't just looking for a casual relationship or a one-night stand. Scorpio is connected to the House of Intimacy in Astrology; they want to go deep. They want to share their body, but more importantly, their soul.
One thing's for sure: Dating a Scorpio is never dull! Whether you're curious about Scorpio compatibility or you need to know what you're getting yourself into when loving a Scorpio, keep reading to uncover it all!
Positive Scorpio traits
When you're in a deep relationship with a Scorpio, you don't have to worry so much about the emotional baggage from your past. Scorpio's tenacity and willingness to accept the dark with the light makes them great when handling crises. If you've been through something deeply painful or traumatic, past or present, you can absolutely count on them to be there, supporting you and helping you heal.
And you'll never have to wonder if your Scorpio lover is into you. Scorpios are intensely loyal and protective of their partner, and they're not afraid of intimacy -- it's what they crave. They aren't about playing games and keeping things light and loose. They want to connect in the depths, and to share the deepest and darkest parts of your souls.
Negative Scorpio traits
Scorpios have an obsessive need for control, and you better believe that will apply to your relationship when you're dating a Scorpio. Not only will they need to have a say in every single aspect of your partnership, they'll have no problem telling YOU how things will be done. If you happen to be especially stubborn or independent, Scorpio's grip will probably feel too tight for you.
When you're with a Scorpio, you may also feel like you are constantly explaining or defending yourself. Scorpios are extremely possessive and suspicious, and will often have questions about where you were, who you were with, and what you were doing, when you got home... And you better have an answer that's on the up-and-up, because if your Scorpio lover feels they've been wronged, they will seek revenge, and it won't be pretty...
Scorpio in bed
The bedroom is where Scorpio comes to life! Seduction, tension, mystery, intimacy -- it's got everything they love. A physical relationship with Scorpio is probably one of the best you'll ever have, because they are so comfortable in this space. They are turned on by vulnerability and will love to see you sharing every part of yourself with them. But stay on your toes! Scorpios love to explore taboo things, so you'll need an open mind and a lot of trust for your Scorpio lover.
Just one caveat here: If you're with a Scorpio who's been badly wounded sexually or is still harboring painful feelings from past relationships, the wall they've built between themselves and intimacy will need to be knocked down first. Scorpios are masters at holding grudges and their inability to let go of past hurts could totally squash their current love life. You'll need to build a lot of trust first for your Scorpio lover to feel like they can put themselves back in a position that hurt them before.
Scorpio in a relationship
Two words, Scorpio: CHILL OUT. Your energy is very powerful, which is going to take you far in life, but in romance, intensity can be intimidating. Don't stop being you, but consider how you come across to others -- are you drawing in the type of people you want to? You could find you have more romantic prospects -- or smoother relationships -- if you are able to manage the extremes of your emotions.
And now, the really hard part: You've got to learn how to respect your partner's privacy. It's unhealthy to immerse oneself 100% into any relationship -- everyone needs things that are theirs and theirs alone, you and your partner included. The more you pry and question your loved one, the more unstable and untrusted they'll feel. Your suspicions say a lot more about you than about them -- are you really willing to risk a good thing?
Dating a Scorpio man or Scorpio woman
If you haven't realized it by now, Scorpio is an extremely intense sign, and you'll deal with a lot of that intensity in a relationship with them. This is something you'll have to know and accept going in; you get the passionate, inquisitive, deep side of Scorpio's intensity, but you have to take the controlling, possessive intensity with it. That Scorpion stinger will sting from time to time, so you'll need a thick skin, but you'll also need to be very open. If you both sweep your Scorpion partner's fears under the rug, they will simmer and boil there until they explode. These things must be addressed.
And we leave you with three words when dating a Scorpio: honesty, honesty, honesty! There's no way around it, you HAVE to keep it real with your Scorpio lover. Scorpios can smell lies, secrets, and infidelities a mile away, so if you're keeping something from them, they'll know it. Then, the trust is gone and, for a Scorpio, when the trust is gone, the love is gone... Consider yourself warned!
