The Scorpio man is persuasive, secretive, possessive and competitive. Because he prefers to be in control of a relationship there is bound to be trouble. One of the most serious threats to happiness will be the desire to get even when hurt or worse, to hide true feelings because of a reluctance to reveal his vulnerable side. Both parties are unnecessarily suspicious, a problem which can only be dealt with by total honesty and open communication. Yet there is the same tendency to trust nobody with innermost realities. When quarrels should be over, neither of you dares to make the first move and say, "I'm sorry. Perhaps I was wrong.''
