Oh, Scorpios. I don't put all that much stock in astrology, but Scorpios can definitely be mean. (I should know-- I'm related to one.) I suspect that Scorpios use their reputation as an excuse to be douchebags. "I'm a Scorpio. It's in the stars that I will be a massive assmonkey. So just sit back and enjoy the ride!"
Still, whether he's a Scorpio, Capricorn, or a member of the awesome Age of Aquarius doesn't really matter. What matters is how he treats you. Sometimes guys are just jerks whose behavior has nothing to do with whether Pluto is in the eighth house of Mars or whatever. There are plenty of, say, Aries men out there who can also be cruel. It all boils down to how he handles conflict and stress. You can't just blame the poor scorpion sign. I'm sure there are tons of nice Scorpios out there. Granted, I haven't met any of them, but I'm sure they exist.
You've got to look deep and hard at your guy and decide whether he's worth the time and effort. Is he a good guy who has the occasional outburst? Or is he a rageaholic who picks fights and blames you for every little thing? You shouldn't be with anyone who is abusive. Tell him that you can't deal with his mood swings, and that if he goes off on you again you'll leave. If he's willing to work through his anger, give it another shot. Suggest counseling, medication, kickboxing, shooting zombies on Xbox, anything that'll help him work out his anger issues. As for the stubbornness, well, that might be part of the package. That's a tough trait to unlearn, but if he's willing to communicate and try to see your side of things once in a while, he just might be a keeper. If not, I hear good things about Aquarius men...
Do you believe a guy's personality is dictated by his astrological sign? Or is it all a lot of new-age hooey?

im a scorpio, for the most part, im very sweet and easy going, BUT i am stubborn, sometimes..if someone is being a retard hahaha. . my father is a scorpio he is SOOOOOO easygoing, gets mad maybe ONCE a year..always goes with the flow! although i know my boyfriends uncle is a scorpio and hes the biggest ass ive ever seen!...its a toss up!
Maybe he's just annoyed cause this silly lady thinks/treats him like a piece of calendar...
First lets rephrase the question:
I like my guys blue eyes but he's so stubborn & mean. Should I stay or leave?
I'm tolerant of my boyfriends golf habit but he's so stubborn & mean. Should I leave or stay?
I'm patient with my boyfriend's inability to do the laundry correctly but he's so stubborn & mean. Stay or go?
Wait. HUH?
'Nuf said.
Nick you are a patient man. A patient man.
'I'm sure there are tons of nice Scorpios out there. Granted, I haven't met any of them, but I'm sure they exist.'
Hahhhaaahhhaaaa, I agree! Great stuff!
Zodiac signs are bullcrap. If someone is stubborn and mean, then they're just stubborn and mean. Doucheyness can't be blamed on a birthday.
Its probably because you're not a pisces or cancer (which is who scorpios are most comapitble with). No, Im totally kidding, but Im a scorpio and I definitely do not possess most the stereotypical characteristics of the average scorpio (stubborn, mean, possessive, etc.) I agree that you cant blame your behavior on your birthdate or use it as an excuse to rationalize your actions. Both my sister and my best friend are leos and they are like day and night. Another one of my friends and my dad are both cancers, and they are polar opposites. It has nothing to do with the zodiac, its just who they are. So your boyfriend is not stuborn and mean because he is a scorpio, he is stubborn and mean because that's just the kind of person he is.
You know, sometimes the compatibility thing works. On the other hand, I'm not supposed to be compatible with Cancers, yet 90% of my close friends are Cancers. Go figure. Though the one time I got a psychic reading (it was at a party), I was told that Pisces is my rising sign and people often exhibit more traits from their rising sign. And Pisces is supposed to be compatible with Cancers. So...
Not that I really believe in any of this stuff. Though I will admit to glancing at my horoscope every once in a while.
Dump Him. Scorpios are horrible people. The only people defending Scorpios are Scorpios themselves. They think the human race(especially those of the opposite sex) are solely for their sadistic entertainment. My mother is a Scorpio, I used to hook up with a Scorpio and unfortunately, they're drawn to me like moths to a freak-ass flame. I'm Aquarius, but my rising is Pisces..Maybe that's why..Anyway, if someone tells you their birthday is at the end of Oct or Nov..Run. It will save you the expensive therapy and tear stained shirts.
I am not a Scorpio, but I'm dating one! and he is kind and loving and selfless and only cares about me and his friends!
sure we've had our ups and downs but who doesnt?
HOW THE HELL CAN YOU BLAME THE MONTH YOU WHERE BORN IN ON YOUR ATTITUDE!
and screw you for being so damn mean you bitchy whore, i bet your single lonely and sad so you need to be mean to others to make yourself feel better
Yo. I'm a Scorpio. When my blood sugar gets too low, I get moody and stubborn...and that's about where the similarities end. I'd describe myself generally as easy-going, sensitive, and bubbly. I have an enormous guilt complex that means that I feel awful taking advantage of anyone. I'll go out of my way to do favors for my friends, even at the expense of my own needs. Total opposite of a Scorpio, no? My personality has nothing to do with the fact that I was born in November. I think it's pretty silly that you'd rule out a whole group of people because of the month in which they were born, but in the long run, that's probably just your loss.
I was seeing a scorpio man for and thought all was going fine, until he started acting stink and moody towards me for no apparent reason. He was going thru some issue w his landlord and whenever he needed to talk I was always there for him, and would just be patient with him. When I tried to ask him what was wrong and why he cut me off, he got all offended and said he didn't cut me off, but yet still he would'nt give me any reasons as to why he just turned cold on me. This is very confusing and it hurt like hell, cause in the beginning we were so happy and had so much fun. The sex was soooo good!!! Really good!!! Did I mentioned that I am a pisces, and according to the zodiac bullshit scorio and pisces go so well together. I was so happy when we started talking because I felt like me and him could really relate to each other because of our similarities!!! I dont have much to say except that it's been over a month and he still hasn't tried to contact me. I am really hurting, but I didn't do anything to him and so I refuse to contact him. So I guess this is it for me and him since he is stubborn and I am stubborn too!!! Good luck with his new girlfriend......
Ive been knowing this scorpio since we were in high school, and we were involved in just a sexual relationship back then. I never could tell if he really liked me or not, so I started to date this other guy that was really into me. To make a long story short, years later I ended up having two children with the pisecs guy and stayed in a relationship with him for a long time. Even though I was in the relationship,I still thought about the scorpio from time to time wondering if it would of ever been something serious between us. I am now single, and recently ran into the scorpio, and we picked up where we left off, as if we never parted. I now know that I am madly inlove with him(maybe always have) and ive expressed that to him. Im a cancer women, and expressing my feeling comes natural towards someone that I truly love. When I told him, he smiled and asked if I was sure. Im confused, cause we have been getting really close, and he calls me every day, but he just recently started bring up the fact that in our pass, I just pushed him aside for somebody else, when thats not the case, I just never knew if he cared. Now he say things like"you never know, you could of had all my kids" (btw he has no children either) im just confuse, I really wanna know how he really feels. He has told he that he loves me, but I just dont know if this is some type of revenge hes set out foreal me? Sigh...

1,5 in a relationship with this man. it has been very hard. hot and cold, broke up ones, he came after me and i came back. it is a struggle, but we are becoming closer and closer. his ex is still in the picture, she is far away, but he admits she is in his head all the time. he does not want to lose me, so we r taking it slow. i asked him to move out and take his time. we r more open to each other then ever, and he says he trusts me and he want us to work...but he does not know hot to get rid of all his thoughts about the pas. they were together for 5 years, she left him once and then they did long distance relationship for 3 years. he always thought she is the one, that until he met me...and now hee says he is confused. i told him i am letting u go, but he refuses, he said he does not want to go to her or leave me, it just that its hard to commit to me 300%
i have been hurting for a while now, and getting to the point that i don't want to care anymore...
so i am trying to do my thing, he is still always around, helps me with everything, wants to come over, i let him, he wants to stay...i don't let him.
i love him, because i never thought i could give myself so much to somebody...
he does not tell me( told me once, when asked me to come back) that he loves me, but when he is in his good moods i can see it in his eyes. he cares for me a lot and he know how much i give and deserve in our relationship. i can see it hurts him too, to not being able to give it to me. he keeps asking for more time... i am just afraid...nothing will change...or maybe it will
he even said he would choose me as a mother of his kids and his wife, but there so many mixed feelings inside of him..he does not know how to act or what to think...
if anybody could look into our planets please
i was born may 26, 1980 lithuania
he was born nov 3, 1981 russia
thank you very much
p.s
as hard as it is last 2-3 weeks we just have been spending a little time together, and its great! he makes every excuse to come see me, like calls me and says..remember u wanted to put those curtains up, i could come and do it for u today ;)
and when he wants to stay for a night i ask him to leave except 1 time ;)
and yesterday he got upset with me cause i asked him not to come by, i had my own plans, he did not show it to me, but i know. this morning he already called, and stoped by to give me a book that he have read. left after 5 minutes. i don't text him a call him, its very hard, every night i want to say goodnight ;(
i have become much stronger and don't get upset anymore over his little(cruel) word games, and he is not doing it as much. i did cut him short couple of times lately and just did not listened to his ego talks. so he actually softens up and comes around.
i have posted before, so this is more updated, and i still need more help ;)

thank you very much in advance
somehow i get stronger when i see other people having similar problems and their in-site helps me not go insane
As a 40 + year old Leo woman, I feel Scorpio Men are always the " BAD GUYS" "THE WOMANIZERS" THE "ALPHA MALES" of the zodiac (a reputation they have earned from other insecure signs as Virgos, Libras, possibly others...and the worst is Scorps won't do anything to say is either true or not), besides my own male LEO partners, which usually envies the "natureal Scorp Charisma". Not to say LEOs are not charismatic... But Scorps are fascinating, the most amazing, seductive, and yes, all the above, specially the ICE and HOT...but the HOT is worth it, because it is VULCANIC HOT.
However, given they find their "princess", they will put them where no woman has been before. And I am a proof of that after being married to him for almost 25 years. And I met every single male sign before. All of them with bad and good things. See the difference? the other signs are bad and good, Scorps are bad and great. But maybe I am just lucky.
I admire and respect them. Maybe, sometimes as women we don't respect ourselves, and they won't respect us either. They "can't be fake"
They are not mean, but smart to know "when to be mean" and that usually means; GO AWAY ! I know that well enough...but the storm shall pass...
Good Luck.
