They wear hooded jackets and spend months sending you icy stares. Once they've decided you don't repulse them, they'll kill you for making them fall in love with you. Just kidding.

It depends on other aspects. Some men with MIS are unassuming, some are overly emotional, some are intense or magnetic, but aspects, house positions and planetary placements should be taken into effect. Look at their Venus sign, what they attract and their Sun and Mercury sign to get a rounder picture of what their like.

Here's a nice description about Mars in Scorpio.

"Mars in Scorpio Lovers often exert a strong sexual presence. They have an allure that is mysterious, seductive and tinged with danger. Power also plays a role in this attraction. The notion of using sex as a means to gain power over another person comes easily to these Lovers. Mars in Scorpio Lovers can be very subtle, almost insidious, in their domination of a relationship. They can also be shockingly cruel and duplicitous but these qualities only reflect the depth and power of their sexual passions and how pervasive those passions can become within their lives. There is always more going on than meets the eye in the Mars in Scorpio universe, levels of emotional need, psychological understanding and devastating eroticism that seem to have no end, and this is what makes these Lovers so dangerously exciting."

I noticed him first. It was the first man I saw on the street and litterally had my jaw drop, stopped and stared at him as he walked by me.
He noticed me months later. I was with someone else, but that didn't seem to worry him much. He pursued me relentlessly, but not in a obvious, in your face manner, just made sure I was aware of his manly presence in my surrounding. lol
He was quite romantic and a bit on the dangerous side. On our first date we broke into the Botanical Garden at night (2 am) and walked around for a while. He took his time before he kissed me, like making sure I wanted it and couldn't wait anymore. They're teasers like that.
I remember in our first weeks together he sent me a very erotic text message, which described his consuming desire for me... Melt my knees right on the spot.

I've had friends with Mars in Scorpio, but never been attracted to men with this placement. I have Mars in Aries and prefer Fiery Mars types. But all the friends I've had with MIS were very intense.

Starfox, I have noticed that this person will come on very, very strong as in phone calls/texts/compliments and then...nothing for days!! Maybe to gauge my reaction? Seems to want to be in control of how things progress.

Yes, they sure know how to make a woman feel like a woman...

Funny that you described yourself as picky. Read this, it's a really good description of Mars in Scorpio with Venus in Virgo: https://goodgollyastrology.com/your-mars-and-venus-playbook/mars-in-scorpio/your-marsvenus-combinations/mars-in-scorpio-with-venus-in-virgo.html

I feel like I can count on him (but we also have a lot of Saturn in synastry). MIS is big on staring.. They will let you know they are interested by staring at you non-stop - in the initial phases. They are not at all scared of displaying sexual attraction signals... but they don't usually verbalise it (even later, when you are in a more established relationship -- it's likely he won't 'say' certain things.. but he'll *show* you in an earthy/no non-sense kind of way).

If your Mars signs match up then it could be a relationship with a very healthy and strong sexual attraction. Since you've already got matching Venus signs.

What I love about him is that he has always shown me he cares (usually through practical things like being there for me when I needed him). He does not 'switch' personalities. He is very stable and, when he really likes someone - his feelings don't change over time.

Something I noticed about him and that he has also told me.. is that the two times in his life when he has fallen genuinely in love (his ex-wife and me) - he never played games.
The way he shows someone that he really cares is by being *there* for her and giving up that compulsive desire to be in emotional-psychological control. It's very difficult for MIS to be 'vulnerable'.. so when they hand you their heart on a platter for you to do what you like with it - you *know* that they genuinely care and trust you.

it was ok for a while til some time --well, some YEARS later they tried asking me out *big surprise there* and i told them that after so many years of trying to even just know one another, i thought it was obvious that it was just not gonna go anywhere and i was honest with them about that but i asked them to keep in touch and to remain friends if they were alright with it...

they got back to me with the most hateful reply i think anyone could probably have.

'oh, no need for formalities. i don't need anyone beating around the bush and i get what you're saying and no, we don't have to be friends or get to know one another... i can take a hint, thanks!' .......uh,

i didn't get back to them. i had no idea they'd ever be capable of just snapping off like that but i think that they did.
