probably a bit like that
Ive trained myself into a weird expression of obsession though
it doesn't express outwardly at all and I am so not interested in relationships, generally
that it becomes this other weird thing that mostly sits in my body

Hello Jenni,

I was not too long ago in a live in relationship and she had her mars and venus in scorpio, me a asc, mercury and mars in scorpio. Its very true what you have said, but I am very much like that too and i find that normal. I like people who are obsessive and intense. Well trust and jealously was an issue. My past and my ex who was also a venus in scorpio ! And the fact that i am extremely sexual made her very insecure. Although I am very loyal and expect complete loyalty back. She had warned me about her temper before we had met in person, (we had met on the internet and were in touch for about a year before we met ) and true she was extremely inflammable as you had put it. But i was much worse, when i felt i was being cornered for no reason and questioned my loyalty. That hurt me the most. And she could turn into sushi very quickly. But i guess it also depends on your other planets. I become very intense and distant when in love mode, or when i like someone, but it often backfires as it so intense in the end that the poor person is taken by storm. If i notice a woman, who i like, and she is interested in me, and if she shows the same interest to anyone else... its over. I expect complete and total attention, although in a subtle way. I get put off too much directness. I am very receptive to these types. All i want to say is, be what you are ! Nothing is more sexy than an obsessive girl ! Deep

nothing unusual about you/that jenni
that's how we are ...
no worries
be yourself and dont let meddling friends manipulate you
too many women do this

oh yes, i can definitely be obsessive. very, very easily. sometimes it's short-term, sometimes longer. It sucks but I just feel like I have to bear it, because I haven't found any other way to get over it (despite trying).

I am SO obsessive. Really I started getting into astrology because it was a way to obsess about a guy I liked. And I've been known to myspace stalk folks I've liked. Ugh.

When I was younger, I would have monogamous crushes. :) I would learn *everything* about the person I liked. I had a monogamous crush on this one guy from 7th grade until 11th grade.

But my Sagittarian sun kicks in some, too. Once in a relationship, I"m always looking to see what is out there that would be better (maybe partly some Mars in Capricorn there, too). In my defense, I've never had a conventionally committed relationship... so it's not like I"m looking around seeing who I could cheat with.

Also, I have moon in aquarius... so the best "relationship" I had was actually a friends-w-benefits thing. :) For a long time, after one of my big crushes crushed me one too many times, I decided that's all I ever wanted, and that love wasn't real, anyway. That lasted for a few tawdry years. ;)

I'm right there with you there Jenni. My Mars and Venus are conjunct in Scorpio. The obsession can get pretty intense. I actually have found myself better when dating around. It definitely helps to reduce the scare factor that's chased a lot of women off in the past.

HA!! YES to all of the above.

Is no wonder I'm single...lol
