Expert Interview. 13 January 2022.} Instead of posting a bunch of Instagram stories showing off where you are or who you’re with, keep a few things to yourself, and only post vague things that don’t tell the whole story.

Expert Interview. 13 January 2022.} Scorpios don’t wear their hearts on their sleeves—in fact, they tend to bottle up their emotions and put on a facade so that other people don’t think they’re weak.

If you’ve hurt your Scorpio man, you might have some explaining to do. We all mess up in relationships sometimes, and it’s totally fine to admit your mistakes.

Maintain your independence.

11

Give him some space.

Scorpios are usually pretty independent, and he might not appreciate it if you get clingy or overbearing. Instead, take advantage of the nights he wants to spend alone by going out and doing your own thing. There’s a good chance that he’ll realize that he misses you while you’re out on your own. ^{[18]
