Expert Interview. 13 January 2022.} They'll probably ask you lots of questions and want to spend time with you so they feel like they truly know you. According to astrologer Angel Eyedealism, "it's a very tense sign." You can show them that you are trustworthy by "looking them straight in the eye, [and by being] accountable, upfront, and solid so that there's no room for reproach. If you're just very trustworthy and solid, they will finally relax."
- You might be thinking that this could take some time—it does! Try not to rush a Scorpio since they'll be resistant. Instead, work on being patient and getting to know each other.
- Show them that you're interested in them, too.^{[3]

Scorpios are intensely interested in you when they’re in love.

They'll gaze intently and hang on your every word. To a Scorpio in love, you're the only thing that matters, so you'll notice that they tend to ignore everyone else. According to astrologer Angel Eyedealism, Scorpios "are aggressive people that will go get what they want. They want to have their desires fulfilled, and will obsessively pursue their desire." All of this means that they're looking to make a deeper connection with you.^{[7]

They'll touch your arm, put a hand on your back, or hold hands. These physical connections just show that your Scorpio also feels an emotional connection. Remember, these aren't huge public displays of affection—they're small, consistent touches that show the Scorpio's thinking of you.^{[9]

- Your Scorpio might not want to kiss in public, but behind closed doors, they can be incredibly passionate.

7

Scorpios in love can be really protective.

It takes time for a Scorpio to fall in love, so they'll guard you! You may notice that Scorpios have a small circle of friends, but they're fiercely protective of them.

Scorpios can be indifferent or rude if they're not interested.

Scorpios fall in love more easily with Cancer, Pisces, and Virgo signs.

Cancers also value trust and intimacy so they're a good fit with Scorpios. Pisces also search for a deep connection with a partner. Then, there are also Virgos who are known for being dedicated in relationships. All three of these signs are the most compatible with Scorpio, although relationships with other signs can also work.^{[12]

- Gemini can also be compatible with Scorpio just because the two signs are so different! Geminis and Scorpios each may be drawn to one another because they want to learn more about what makes them both so unique.

10

Scorpios aren’t as compatible with Leo and Aquarius signs.

Leos can be too outgoing for most Scorpios. Since Scorpios tend to keep to themselves, they can be uncomfortable with extroverted personalities. Scorpios also don't mesh well with the Aquarius sign because Aquarius is primarily intellectual and Scorpio is all about emotions. Scorpio might think that Aquarius is emotionally distant.^{[13]

- This isn't to say that you can't have a relationship with Scorpio if you're Leo or Aquarius—it just means you'll have to take these concerns into account. Have an open, honest discussion about your personality traits so Scorpio feels connected with you.

11

Scorpios are faithful companions.

If a Scorpio loves you, they're usually in it for a long-term relationship. After all, they've spent time getting to know you and they trust you completely. If you choose to have a relationship with a Scorpio, you'll find they're loyal partners.^{[14]

Not at all. They want to lay bare all that they want to get. This is not a superficial sign. If the guy doesn't feel engaged and intimate with you, they're not going to have interest in you.

A Scorpio in love usually shows their vulnerability as a sign of trust. Without vulnerability, there is no intimacy, and that's the hallmark of the Scorpio sign. They like to lay bare of all things so that they can get closer to you.
