No, not bruised. I nursed a Scorpio and he seemed overly concerned his every symptom and had a closet--not a shelf--but a closet devoted to medication.

No, it was not as you imagined. He had a cold and popped out to go to the store every ten minutes to pick up something he saw on a website. I was not "assigned" as a nurse to him. He was a friend that I offered to help--and wish I hadn't.

I've dated a few of these beings, most recently the man I have 1 child and one on the way. His selfish and deceptive personality was always the cause of our problems and the reason why we are still not working out, despite the fact that we have another child on the way. When finding out that I was pregnant, he thought maybe terminating the pregnancy was the better option if I wasn't going to take him back. WHAT? Kill a child because I don't want him because he lies constantly? If that's not selfish...what is. Don't get me wrong, yes he has some good in him, but a lot of what he does is done because of what he gets in return for these good deeds. He acts as though he has the utmost respect for his parents, but then turns around and disrespects them behind their backs as well. We once had a fight because I disagreed with his friend saying his mom was performing sexual acts on him...joke or not, I felt it was very disrespectful n bith of their parts, and should have been addressed, but he saw nothing wrong with his friend talking this way about his own mom! I could write a book on these very selfish, very sneaky people. Don't turn your backs on them, and sleep with one eye open!

Im a Scorpio ...Im not self absorbed but to a certain degree Im not completely trusting...

I suppose I dont understand how you assume this patient of yours is self absorbed unless you believe his illnesses are somatic but he is being prescribed medicine and assigned a nurse so I could only assume there is serious debilitating illness here. Myself I take 5 medications a day to keep my heart beating. I have HLHS. I would hate for someone to look through my medicine cabinet and assume I was self absorbed because of the content of it.

Scorpios by nature are a little secretive because we have parts of ourselves that are personal. But being personal doesn't mean that we're dishonest. In fact scorpio's appreciate honestly, and openness.

And scorpio's are far from self-absorbed. Scorpio's love to give, they love to help and be powerful and important, but they're also confident. You must be careful to never demand from a scorpio though, we don't like to be ordered around. But if given the chance, we will offer what we have.

It seems to me like you've had your ego bruised by a scorpio.

I do not know any Scorpios who are honestly Self absorbed and distrusting.. However I know why many scorpios would come off as that (I know from experience)

Scorpios Because some are deep down afraid of judgement
Are very secretive and come off as cold and distrusting people,
But many of them had difficult experiences in life that have forced them to be virtual introverted loners.. once you really get too know them though they are Much Much better..

They are also usually very sexy people and.. they know they are Sexy, Smart, and consider themselves superior.. while it may come off as arrogant and vain... Its more of ALOT (bordering too much) Confidence in their superiority, sometimes a good thing that can make many enemies.

I know alot of scorpios and believe me they are no peice of cake...
HOWEVER
They are truly arent Self absobred and distrusting
just Seretive and Confident (among other things)
They're really Awesome people if you get to know them and i know from personal experience.. you may have your ocasional fallouts but
all in all they are the kind of people you will want around.

What they're not! I'm a Scorpio and I don't think I am self absorbed or distrusting. I care about other people and I'm very trustworthy!
