Hi. I am double Scorp sun/rising. The things they say about appearance rings true for me concerning the magnetic ways of the scorp rising. I am not trying to be narcissistic(did I spell it right?). But I am very popular with the ladies where I work. It is a clinic where out of 500 employees, 90% are women. My job is Handyman for 20 of these clinics. I run into everyone. I have done work for every department and I am the best man in my team. I am one of the few men these ladies ever see in their work day aside from deliverymen and water-cooler man. But my job has me coming to the rescue, so to speak ,for many people. Ladies like to watch me work. I have many fans and admirers. The way I have been handling this has been professional. I am always polite and courteous. I get complements and come ons but I usually just say "thank you" and go to the next job. I have dated some girls here, but I am careful who it is because I seem to be watched by everyone and people just love to gossip. I have been able to do things at work without getting caught and it has been quite adventurous. Now I have fallen inlove with a fickle virgo girl who seems to love me back but thinks I will cheat on her, due to my popularity. When in reality,I fall inlove with a girl and she becomes my obsession and muse. She does not know that my eyes close to all others and I only "see" her. Virgos gotta have that security though and she is still unsure that the will be safe with me.
She is the one I chose. Now we are being attacked by gossip and haters trying to delve into our love life. Although I am forever fearless in the face of adversity. I think it is taking a terrible strain on her at work. I fear that it is affecting how she feels about me. In my everyday life, I am powerful and strong, living on pure fearlesness and survival instinct. Conquering insurmountable forces doing fucked up, hard, ass-breaking , and sometimes hazardous work at this place that my other co-workers cannot handle, only to look forward to seeing her before the day is through. I am proud to be so strong.Only she can destroy me.
does your reputation submarine you from attaining what you want?

Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sat, June 7, 2008 - 2:48 PMThe only reply I can think of is that I don't believe in that scorpio stereotype. I think some of us express it differently and that alot of interpetations in astrology books have put the sign in an bad light,misguided one at times.Mabe some people can use it to their advantage,mabe some do and aren't aware of it? As for myself I simply try to be who I am,not too concerned with what others assume me to be.I'm sure some would be disapointed,that in itself has been a challenge,as far as reputation goes.That whole oversexed,violent,brooding,skulking in the shadows,vindictive reputation.I guees all one can do is laugh at it and move on,just be themselves,and try not to feed the hype projected on them.My 2 cents. -

Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sat, June 7, 2008 - 4:01 PMMen like me...quite easily and quickly, but it's a short lived attraction for the most part. I know it's because I just exude sex to anyone in my vicinity...once they realize I'm all about commitment and cuddling, they run. -
-
Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sat, June 7, 2008 - 4:12 PMI read you loud and clear, Lexie. So many people respond to such carnal feelings easily. Some people cannot help but exude sexual energy even when you really dont want to. It makes it easy to draw people to you and its sometimes nice to feed off of such positive energy.But it is like findin the needle in a haystack when it come to which one is a good one -
-
Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sat, June 7, 2008 - 4:15 PMyes. the weak cannot commit, the weak always run. who doesn't like cuddling? -
-
Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sun, June 8, 2008 - 9:24 AMThat sexual energy can get very uncomfortable,lead people to assume more than I was intending.It was at it's worst in my late teens and early 20's and to this day can still be an issue.And I'd have no clue as to what I'm doing wrong,just that mixed messages.Then I get angry,then they get angry.So I don't flirt,and then that just makes it worse.I guess my problem always was that I'd find myself attracted to alot of people but not want to act on it for various reasons,like being already in a relationship or they were themselves.Having to put up that shield of disinterest,not responding back.Seems to be the only way to go.not to mention the past pattern of picking rat bastards that wanted fun and no commitment,getting upset with me because I wanted commitment and was no longer fun.Thank god my choice in men has changed,my values about relationships in general have as well.The kind of men I have attracted recently have been older and more stable,more laidback,easygoing.Types that 5 or 6 years ok would have bored me to tears.So perhaps it's a learning curve. -

Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sun, June 8, 2008 - 9:58 AMSigh. What a curse. Sexy as hell only to attract sexual bottom feeders.
Why can't lovely, stand-up men who are looking for a solid relationship be attracted to overt and uncontrollable sex appeal?
Alas.
At least you give me hope for the future. Maybe it won't always be this way.
And PS., isn't it so freakin annoying how girls get instantly jealous of you, even if they're FAR more attractive? -
-
Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sun, June 8, 2008 - 10:08 AMExactly Lexie.I've never considered myself all that sexy,but apparently something gets across.Unfortunitly it isn't always with the ones I want.*sigh*.The jealousy from other women has bothered me at times,not all are like that,but every now and then I'll get a catty look and comment and I'll be thinking 'what?,I'm not trying to do anything,and I'm not interested in your man'.So what gives? -
-
Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sun, June 8, 2008 - 11:30 AMWhat would you say changed so that you were able to finally attract the kinds of men you wanted? Is there a foolproof way to screen for that sort of thing? Do they all hang out at the same tree house? -
-
This is the maximum depth. Additional responses will not be threaded.
Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sun, June 8, 2008 - 12:55 PMI wish I could say for sure,but I don't know, Lexie. I just for some reason began find those kind of men that I used to be drawn to repelling.It never really hit me untill I encountered an ex of mine about 2-3 years ago and realised how much he hadn't changed.What had attracted me to him,was still there,hard as hell to resist,but his approach to me nauseated me.it wasn't anything I could immediatedly put my finger on,just intuition.And around that time and later,other guys had come into my life and it seemed with the same m.o. and after talking with people who knew them well,a pattern kept arrising.The other telling thing was how they'd react when I turned them down,mabe it didn't mean anything but it was like they assumed I would automatically say 'yes',and when I didn't,it's werid.These guys would hostile acting.no need to explain. I figured I'm better off without them. As for attracting the men I want,mabe that's tied into it? Setting my standards higher,not being so availible so eager to jump? I really don't know.I just realised that I began to be attracted to men that approached me differently and weren't all over me with the charm/flattery.That seem more interested in getting to know me and not rushing anything.That I can respect,that's the other thing,I couldn't respect a man who had no respect for me,it brought out the worst in me.A werid addictiveness that fed on itself.I hated who I was with them.

Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sat, June 7, 2008 - 4:05 PMThank you Jag,I been trying my best not to feed any hype. Not many people can even figure out that its a scorp thing or try to analyse what sign I am. some people thought I was leo.
I know some other people with scorpio rising and in their world, they too are popular and magnetic and scrutinised. It is something I am just recently learning that is attributed to this sign. The scorps I know are not oversexed or skulking in shadows and violent. But I know that i can brood and be vindictive.
Perhaps my situation is unique. I am just venting right now because I think Im losing my baby and Im trying to figure alot of it out. -

You are unique in certain ways. Anyone who has Scorpio prominent in the chart or has Sun, Moon and Ascendant in Scorpio has to deal with the similar issues of sexual magnetism. Just integrate into your life.
My moon, eros and psyche are also in Scorpio and they all conjunct.

Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Fri, June 20, 2008 - 1:12 PMI agree, Sean. The sexual attraction can be overpowering where it attracts undue attention and makes partners wonder. I've always had relationships with Aquarians and yet around me they become obsessive and possessive. They even have "talks" with other men to warn them off or even come right out with outrageous statements. For example, "Do you MIND not looking at my WIFE?" I feel like it warps my Aquarians who are in all other ways very Aquarian.
The other bad thing is that it can attract people who are borderline stalkers. That is definitely not good! AND you can lose a lot of credibility at work because you become so associated with it that people have a hard time taking you seriously. -

Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sat, June 21, 2008 - 11:21 AMAre you guys serious? You mean we attract people to us because of the sex appeal? That is kinda scary........I kinda prefer attraction at spiritual level........
I have a guy friend who has been after a girl for 5 years since high school. That girl is not very sexy, but that is the kind of love I value very much. I had also spent 2 years pining for an agonizing unrequited love, but I have never had anyone who can be interested in me for more than 6 months. Maybe because I started being overly cold to scare them off or maybe they were just looking for something short term........... -
-
Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sat, June 21, 2008 - 11:49 AMMiki, in my experience, this is normal.
I think we attract people who are subconsciously attracted to our exuded sexuality. They don't know what they see in us, and some of us don't know why this happens...But I think one day, it just clicks with them and they can't remember why they wanted to be with someone who was...well, good in bed, but also required some effort on their parts. I expect it depends on the individual in question- water signs deal with me the best, earths sort of look at me funny and ignore my emotions...and fire and air signs- forgettaboutit, they simply can't deal.
-
Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sat, June 21, 2008 - 12:40 PMI believe our spiritual level has alot to do with sex appeal. Its a vibe we give out and a charisma that is unique. On a positive side, it can open many doors. It is very easy to win the hearts of people. It can also attract the wrong kind of attention from hateful jealous saboteurs and submarine comanders. But that is my challenge.
I think you are doing fine if you have been weeding out people through your 6 month process of being cold to scare them off. Must suck for them, though.
-
Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sat, June 21, 2008 - 8:02 PMI like a connection on all levels, spiritual and intellectual being mandatory as well as very sexual. That's probably why I like Aquarians so much because they can match that part of me. Plus they are usually strong enough to let me have my own interests and my alone time which are also musts for me. I'm extremely reclusive so I have to have someone who understands that. And knowing that I have the ability to just walk in and turn them on doesn't hurt.
I can't say I've had short term relationships because that's not true. Starting from high school the relationships I had went on for years and they stay in touch, mostly hoping that I'll be single again and they'll get another chance.
I think that's two things: the potent sexualily and the strong independence they sense. Let's face it, people want what they feel they can't really have. -

Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sat, June 21, 2008 - 12:11 PMIt is hard when you want a nice serious relationship with someone who can be a partner that will take you seriously and share your life with but your strong (sexual?) presense makes everyone assume you are someone who is promiscuous and has had sex with everyone. It is ironic. I dont cheat either. When I am in love I feel like I have won millions in the lottery and I feel more attractive and keep up my appearance because I love being attractive for my lady. I have had that backfire on me with my lady asking if I am trying to look good for someone else. W.T.F.? -

Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sat, June 21, 2008 - 3:17 PMAh sean, i'm the same way. I never understood people who 'get comfortable' in relationships. I 'get comfortable (see: gaining weight and not dressing nicely)' when I'm SINGLE, not dating. If I have a man...through conscious efforts and a stronger interest in sex than food, I look good for him.
It's very frustrating when we're seen as a damn fine temporary lay when all you want is to be in a long term relationship. Alas, that's always been really hard for me to find.
-
Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sat, June 21, 2008 - 3:40 PMLots of good points here everyone, and much of what was said also rings true for me as well. For starters, I'm one of the most unassuming, kept-to-myself people out there (though I'm still strong and strong-willed), but yet and still, I seem to draw many types of situations (plus unwanted attention) to me. Man, where to begin. For starters, I know very much about the BS that can go on at work. I remember a few years back, at the job I was working at before the one I currently have now, I met this girl - she was shy, quiet, kept to herself, and she definitely was not like most girls (or people in general) that I'm surrounded by most of the time. I glanced at her for a brief moment (she didn't know I was watching her), thinking to myself, "If only I can get to know this girl, and have something with her." But, I didn't think it could/would ever happen, so I pretty much brushed that notion aside. Then, one day, all of a sudden, she came up to me, smiled, and started a conversation with me, and from there, we became very fond of each other (and the more she was around me, the more alive she became.) As the months went on, the closer we got (neither of us were with anyone), but things slowly, but surely, started to change around the workplace. One day, she got promoted, and when that happened, we couldn't see much of each other, anymore. And, on the days we would see each other, it seemed as if many folks - especially the top dogs (managers, supervisors) were keeping a close watch on us. Many times, I would try to be alone with her (either in the breakroom, or other places, so we could enjoy our time), but then, all of a sudden, people who normally wouldn't pay attention to either of us, would find ways to either sneak up listening to our conversations, or just downright get in the middle of them (and also trying to find ways to get me out of the picture.) We were never officially a *couple* (and neither of us asked to exchange phone numbers), but one day, I decided to ask her out (since we didn't see much of each other in the workplace, anymore). In a shocking move, she turned me down, and of course, I was crushed, severely. And, not too long after this happened, I left the job, and I haven't seen her since. To make a long story short, I *strongly* feel that the big dogs at that job manipulated her into staying away from me. I have many, many reasons as to why I think and feel that way (I won't get into all of them, though), especially, since she was a fairly naive girl (she was smart, but still, fairly naive about the ways of American society...and the workplace..she was from Russia), and, also, the big dogs didn't like me too much, anyway, since I refused to kiss their asses, and didn't care to mingle with them much of the time, and I could also expose much of the dirt that went on "behind-the-scenes" (in a performance evaluation, one of the managers had the nerve to tell me that if I wanted more money, I had to "kiss ass," --that's a literal quote--and the way they saw me lollygagging with some of the co-workers who didn't rank, I had to do this with the big dogs, too, he told me. Puh! Ain't happenin'!) It all sucks because this girl was one out of only 3 girls in my entire life, thus far, who I really, really, really fell achingly for. (She was a Virgo Sun, btw..I seem to attract many Virgos.) I mean, I've found tons of girls attractive, but only a handful of them stole my heart. -

Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sat, June 21, 2008 - 7:04 PMOn a slightly lighter note (and to echo the original post)...I'm not a major social butterfly (I do socialize, don't misunderstand), but, like many have noted here, yes, it seems that I draw strong reactions from people. I also tend to intimidate--and attract--many people, equally, women included. I have the stereotypical "dark, brooding, intense loner" Scorpio demeanor, plus I'm tall (I'm well over 6feet.) It took two close friends of mine (one a Moon-Pluto conjunction/Venus Scorpio, the other, a Scorpio moon) to help me see this more fully, and also the reasons why (they tell me that I intimidate people, because they can sense that I see through to the deepest parts of most anyone and/or B.S., and phoniness, and that I have zero tolerance for said phoniness and B.S., they were both absolutely right about that!) I always knew that I had very little patience/interest for all of this, but it took a long time to figure out that this sort of thing would make most others uneasy. But, I still do attract friends (and women.) In my new job, there are a few ladies there (who are, without a doubt, attractive), and try to get me to talk with them (one went so far as to bend over in front of me, with so much *flair*, it was a dead-giveaway that she wanted my attention), but I make sure I keep a fair enough distance (since many of them are married, and I have little patience for workplace small talk.) I've also gotten frequent, and often, strange/unexpected propositions from both men and women (a total stranger - gay man - propositioned me for sex, one morning on the way to work a few years ago--the incident was actually more hilarious than it was offensive...and it was also flattering, and before that, on two other separate occasions, 2 other gay guys wanted sex), and I've also had some propositions from a few women who were already involved in relationships. There were plenty of incidents where, at a local hot-spot, me and a group of friends (and their friends) would show up. There would always be some kind of "drama" (and I used to love it!) On more than one occasion, I would be caught in the middle of a situation where some girl had the hots for me, but either another girl, or one of my guy friends, would get jealous, and try to manipulate me into not getting involved with the girl (while other times, girls who were interested in me, would get one of their friends to tell me that they liked me, because they were scared to tell me, themselves.) I guess it's all strange, 'cause I'm not one you would necessarily call "the life of the party." I've turned down many offers from girls (some who were breathtakingly attractive, and tempting, and it hurt like hell fighting off the temptation), because I knew deep down, they weren't for me, and they would just end up breaking my heart...and *that* would have hurt more than the pain I felt while fighting my temptations. But, all of the experiences I listed above, I wouldn't trade them for anything, because they were all thrilling and exciting--it was all quite an emotional/psychological rush--and it made me feel alive. Whew! That was long! -

They do not hide the fact that they like me. I think that if they like me then I must be attractive to the ladies, so I dont let it bug me so much.
But, It has made me understand how ladies must feel when they attract unwanted looks from men that gawk at them like meat. It is very unsettling. -

Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sat, June 28, 2008 - 10:08 PMI have been informed that my lady that I lost couldn't handle me being around so many other women at all times . Says she cannot be with me because I am a party guy and has seen many myspace pictures of me on the internet. She told me that she wanted someone who isnt so wild so she can settle down and feel safe. She apparently doesn't know jack shit about scorpios or me at all.
Is it a crime that I was such a ham when I was single? One of the things I fell in love with about her is that she isnt so wild as the people I have been around.
I have been trying to find someone to have a commited relationship with. She thinks I am the best lover she has been with but somehow this is something "engineered" so that I can bed many other women. This virgo chick has analysed this about me. I was going crazy trying to always convince her that I am not what she suspects.
She is so damn insecure. We arent together anymore and she still is jealous. Its rediculous! -

Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sun, June 29, 2008 - 8:18 AMI have a friend who is Libra with Virgo rising and she's constantly looking for signs that her Aries is cheating. It's obsessive. The thing is that in the past she went into relationships with known cheaters then ignored all the signs that anything was going on until she was confronted by it. It's crazy. But, she grew up with a serial cheating parent who made her a confidant and required her to lie about it to her other parent and step parents. So maybe this old girlfriend of yours has the same type of issues and can't confront it directly either.
I also think this is a somewhat typical girl thing that I just don't get, like finding out that women go through men's wallets. I can't even imagine doing something like that. I didn't even know women did such things until last year and now I find out it's common. Truly bizarre.
I guess really don't know or get the girl rules.
-
Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sun, June 29, 2008 - 9:28 AMSean, she's not working with what you're telling her, she's working with the evidence. Virgos work with 'reality' or things they can prove and see, and all she has with that is pictures on your myspace. Not saying that she's right or wrong, just that she's going with th evidence.
If she's important to you, consider deleting the party pics? I know that you're broken up and all, but that doesn't mean the feelings ended on the part of either party. In fact, it sounds like you're both still into each other, because you're still analyzing things.
And I thinks it goes without saying, but chicks are afraid of being cheated on. It sucks that there are no safeguards, ya know? It doesn't matter if you're very pretty, give great head, fab in teh sack, smart as a whip...nothing protects you from cheating. Wish I had a magic card that guaranteed me fidelity in my relationships. LOL
I don't really go through wallets, though I don't have a huge mental ban against it. Most times, a guy will eventually just show me his wallet. cell phone...that's where the temptation is for me. And emails! I've never actually gone through either of these, but believe me when I say I think about it if I really like someone. -
-
Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sun, June 29, 2008 - 9:45 AMI think Sean is saying his partying my space pics have been posted on tne net by others which would mean he couldn't delete them. Now I'm wondering how she even found these. Was she searching the net for his name or something? This is all way beyond me.
"And I thinks it goes without saying, but chicks are afraid of being cheated on. "
Really? That never crossed my mind. Ever. This all goes back to the fact that I look like a female (to the extreme really), only like men sexually and I'm intellectual but also a girly girl and yet I have nothing in common with over 99% of women. I'm always completely surprised by statements like that, the pictures on the net and the emails. My take on it would be that I just wouldn't be with anyone I felt I had to do that with because it would be a complete turn off to me. If I even thought they could do that to me, I'd consider them a liar and that would be the end of all feeling for them.
Like I said, I don't know the girl rules. It's caused me problems with women my entire life and I'm not even a guy. -
-
Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.
Sun, June 29, 2008 - 3:21 PMIt's not necessarily that 'oh, he's cheating' that makes ladies want to check out the wallet, cell, email. It's that...if you like someone, you want to know EVERYTHING. Including his private world.
And...Unless you're like self-actualized or something like that, yeah...being cheated on is a very big possibility...or even liklihood, and it hurts people. O.o *Fails to see how this is news* -

Re: scorpio rising popularity can be damaging.

Very different thinking than mine, but I wouldn't doubt most women think that way. Honestly, if anyone did that to me I would dump them immediately and there would be absolutely no discussion. To me, that shows a complete lack of respect and I won't tolerate anyone disrespecting me. It also shows a person who cannot be trusted and I won't spend any time with someone who can't be trusted. But then, I'm very Scorpio and very black and white about things.
I think I find it strange because I always know cheaters right off when I meet them and I've never been wrong. Man or woman, whenever I've had the feeling, I've found out they've cheated on their S.O. or spouse. I'm in tune with that because to cheat is to lie to a person you supposedly care about and who trusts you and cares about you. In my mind, if a person is capable of that, they can't be trusted with anything at all. So the minute I pick up on that vibe, that person is finished with me. I'll never trust them with anything and I'll always believe them capable of anything. It's a survival thing really. I watch all kind of things with people to figure out whether I can trust them. That's just one.
"being cheated on is a very big possibility...or even liklihood, and it hurts people."
Statistics over and over show only 22-28% of married men and 15-18% of married women cheat. Those are long term studies from sociologists at universities. And even if people's fear are right and 44% of men and 36% of women have cheated (the statistics for what people think are the numbers), that would still be less than half. For me a likelihood or a big possibility is 90%, 70% on the low end.
But regardless, people can only hurt you when you hand them that power. Frankly, I don't care what a liar thinks about me or anything. They could try to blame me for that, but the truth is they chose to commit that act and lie about it all on their own. It's who they are. Not me or anyone else can change who they are. I'd have more respect for them if they had the guts to be honest and walk away.
That doesn't just apply to romantic relationships but all relationships. People can only hurt you when you allow it. It's a good thing to learn. You're worthy of honesty and respect, Lexie. Everyone is. You have just as much worth as anyone else and because of that, they can't give you worth or take it away.
For the record, you're very attractive, Lexie, and any man that doesn't get that isn't worth your time.
Hope that made some sense. -
