SCORPIO MALE — In Love
When it comes to lovemaking you are capable of attaining the highest level of passion. You are persuasive and will not admit defeat once you have your mind fixed on a particular female. You prefer to control your mates' emotions. Like everything else, you always give one hundred percent and of course you expect the same in return. To you sex is a competitive game, and revenge and jealousy are two of your characteristics that will surface if you aren't winning.
SCORPIO FEMALE — In Love
You have no trouble attracting men. You dress for your mate and will use your seductive, hypnotic eyes to dazzle and captivate your chosen partner. You are the type of woman that has a tremendous animalistic energy that can lure and tantalize but you also have a temper that can be explosive. You are extremely demanding when it comes to the art of making love and you ack patience if your mate doesn't satisfy you. You will be loyal and true blue as long as you don't detect weakness in your lover.
SCORPIO as a Mate
You have an all-or-nothing approach to relationships, therefore you do not match up to all the signs. Here's a look at how you do interact with others.
Scorpio with the 12 Zodiac Signs
Scorpio & Aries
You make a hot combination in bed. Highly aggressive sex that could be described as implied violence. Lustful but not lasting due to your jealous nature.
Scorpio & Taurus
Polar opposites that actually do quite well together. The Bull is stable and loyal enough to satisfy your intense nature. You both value long-term unions and are willing to work at them together.
Scorpio & Gemini
This is not a likely match, the Illusive, fickle Gemini will drive you to distraction, which in turn could bring out your vengeful side.
Scorpio & Cancer
This is one of your best connections. The Crab is a loyal mate who is usually willing to stand behind you. Cancers are attracted to your strong, demanding ways.
Scorpio & Leo
This connection can lead to crimes of passion. Although you are strongly attracted to the Lion, Leo's flamboyant, flirtatious nature will cause anger that could erupt into murder-suicide.
Scorpio & Virgo
The Virgoan has difficulties with your sexual leanings. You will bore easily and move on to more passionate partners.
Scorpio & Libra
This is not the best match. Libra is far too good looking and easy going for your jealous nature. You would likely end up spying on this social butterfly.
Scorpio & Scorpio
Sexually you are truly compatible, however out of the bedroom you are far too much alike -- creating problems and mind games. You will always think that the other is having an affair.
Scorpio & Sagittarius
This alliance is a waste of time for both parties. You are a homebody and the Archer is a travel nut. This is not a likely attraction.
Scorpio & Capricorn
This is a wonderful partnership. You both have the same values and cherish your home environment. Mentally and physically you match up well, easily satisfying one anothers needs.
Scorpio & Aquarius
Why bother. This will never work due to the Aquarian's need for freedom and your need to possess. Your values, ethics and approach to life are just too different.
Scorpio & Pisces
This is not bad. Probably the most erotic sexual combination. The Fish is willing to be a part of your whims and desires, and that makes for a lasting union.
