Oww...why do I keep getting drawn in and disarmed by this Scorpio? He shows all this vulnerability, and opens up to me, and gets intense, and lavishes so much attention on me...and then he hurts me!!! I feel like my heart has been through a meat grinder.

I'm a sad lion.

Thank you, Emma and Leaping Lemur.

I'll have to resist the urge to sting/wound back (8th house stellium here)...and just move on. It really is (partly) his loss.

Ouch is right! I've felt that Scorpio sting and it's NOT fun! When they let their guard down, they are so beautiful and vulnerable, then before you can blink, their defenses are back up and it's like they punish you for having seen their vulnerable side! I will never understand them.

You should not subject your sweet Lioness heart to these hurtful stings!

i'm a leo and i know from experiences that scorpios who are not evolved can be very cruel and brutal not to mention, cold hearted (they are ice fixed water in nature) eh.. and it also takes a long time to get over that hurt more than any other sign for some reason. i think with me i have leo moon in 8th house and venus and mercury in 8th house. but the leo moon, yeah.........

those suckers will get their karma though .

My double leo best friend roared at me in a dramatic way, throwing temper tantrums lol. And leos can be insensitive to our emotions..

Defending Scorpios, sometimes we're just to caught up in our emotions. Not cold hearted and brutal

Afroken, I don't mean to attack Scorpios. The reason this hurts so much is that I like him.

hhhmmmmm....I can't imagine. I never have let a scorpio in my world.

you must be in self depreciation mode or something.

uhm, can i remind you of something? you seem to have forgotten...
you are a queen.
if he stung you it is only because you allowed it to happen.
this may very well be one of those things that you wake up one day and ask yourself, what the hell was I thinking?what happens with a wet blanket and fire?
how pitiful is a leo with a wet fire? PITIFUL! Everything about you that makes you ...you...is going to **** him off and annoy him. you know this right? his crazy drama is going to alienate you and make you think he needs medication. you know this right?
come talk to auntie sunshine when you are all done punishing yourself, she will take you out for ice cream, a laugh and a new pair of sexy shoes! Make everything all better!

How about this?

Scorpians will test their loved ones, over and over, to see how deep their commitment is. Is it possible this is his way of testing you?
Leos do go that extra mile.Maybe he senses that and it makes him feel good.But scorpians need to see that proof of willing to endure the hardships.

scorpios are more insecure than a leo, much more so so they are very scared who they commit to, they are parnoid and untrustworthy , they don't even trust themselves.

23, do you mean the guy who rejected me over a year ago who DIDN'T want me to touch him? He was a Scorpio.

This is a different person. We're not in a relationship. We were just friends.

I hope you don't mind if I ask this, do you have an idea why would he refuse you to touch him? What kind of touch, by the way? I'm interested to know, because that experience sounds familiar to me and it involves a Scorpio too.

GCcarrier, that was a completely different person, from over a year ago. I'm feeling a little too romantically wrecked to go into it all again.

You know what? I don't like when we give these people too much power because of their sign. They're human beings and therefore heavily flawed and vulnerable like the rest of us. I felt pretty stung after my break-up with a scorpio over a year ago, but with 600 miles between us and a helpful gemini venus, I'm f--king over it and him.

Lucia, any man who hurts you or makes you feel like your heart has been through a meat grinder (whether he is a scorpio, gemini, taurus, whatever the sign...) is not worth your time. Don't keep opening the door for him, and allowing him to hurt you. You deserve better than that!

To add: I don't think Leo and Scorpio are the best match anyway. I hope you can save yourself the hurt!

Dulce Luna, I agree. Also, there are a wide variety of people in each of the 12 signs, and each sign has mature, gentle, loving, great people in it.

BUT I think the sun sign offers a great metaphor for the WAY things feel with certain people. In my limited experience with Scorpios, when they sting it has had a certain unmistakable feeling.

The Scorpio could just as easily say "I got my innards clawed out by a Lion."

Astrology is filled with gorgeous metaphors. If a Lion claws at a centaur, ram, other lion, scale-holding lady, or the Twins, it's a flesh wound that heals up. If she claws at a Scorpion, its poisonous innards spill out and paralyze/kill both of them. A crab and a scorpion, in contrast, can fight with their claws but know and respect to keep the innards inside.

And GemGemGem, I agree with you too. Each of the signs can wield hurt, and if some guy is hurting you, time to walk away. It's just sad and can be hard, because there are good things there too.

But it's time for me to gently close that door.

To add: I do think Leo/Scorpio can work (esp when the Leo has a Cancer moon, the Scorp a Sag moon)...just not this relationship.

I dunno, the way I feel about my break-up is that he could've been a Cappy for all I cared and it still would've felt just as bad. Why? Because I was heavily attached to him. Though even when I was with the person for two years and it never crossed my mind 'OMGZ, he's a skorpio so I better watch my back.' It could've been my Uranian rebellious streak that made me resistant to such control, the fact that we were both water suns, or perhaps it was the fact that there was more to him than just the scorpio sun--->> especially in his chart.

Meh, it could be that the whole 'I got stung by a scorpion and it is like nothing else' makes me bitter because of the past, moreover, that this happened to me and if I had given him that much power over me than I probably would be a pitiful sight today. Lo siento. *shrugs*

Your title is so familiar for me. I am a 5th House Scorpio.

Just today, I talked to a Scorp lady who broke up with a Leo man. But, now, she can't live without him. However, Her Truckload of Ego will not contact him. On the other side, the Leo man won't contact either. The fun part I found is.. when I told her that LEO has a very very high ego and he is very stubborn. It can cause many problems.. NOW, she quickly recognized that She is stubborn and egoistic too. However, she can't say that to him!!!!!

Stubbornness between Leo and Scorpio can bring amazing loyalty but it is such a hard work when in conflicts.

Another problem is.. Scorpio man are not very cheerful people who can give some flattery to Leo females and make Leo feel special. For a Scorpio man, he will need attention first and then he will give attention in return.

I would support you in letting him go. Try to explore a few Aries, Sag or Leo men.. you will realize how much you are missing.

I don't feel like the Scorpio stung because I "gave him power" over me. I think he stung because HE felt vulnerable. When you are in a strong, confident place--whatever your sign--you don't hurt others.

And, you can have plenty of power and still get hurt, by anyone. I got hurt because I have a big heart and I care about him. I'm not sorry about being open to him, either. I just have to gently move on, because obviously it's not gonna work with us.

He's not a horrible person though, and I'm not a doormat.

I've always been with Geminis and Libras...they can roll with me...I'd love to fall for a fellow fire man. I have a lot of fire-man FRIENDS. I think it'd be nice to have a hot romance with a fellow Lion.
