I dont know if its a typical male 'Scorpio' trait...but both Scorpio men I have dated, and then gotten serious about, have seemed to have gotten serious about me very quickly (as in, fell in love with me VERY early in the relationship, while I tend to 'tread more carefully with the L word')...and they go from 'taking care' of me, to controlling me. Its as if, because they took such 'good care' of me at the beginning, that they felt it was their right to start controlling me...that I should be grateful for their care they showed, at the beginning.

oops i should add after 'that I should be grateful for their care they showed, at the beginning' - so grateful, that I have to be now under their 'control'...

It goes without saying that you would/should never reject someone on the basis on their starsign, but are there any starsigns you really like or have found you are incompatible with?

The chances are, they weren't self-aware enough to think they had a right to control you. It was probably a behavioural pattern born of complex roots.
Its very difficult to deal with when you're close to it, eh? And you end up close to it quickly because they fall in love so quickly.

Oh yes, looking back, lack of self-awareness was the issue with both of them...but I sometimes, when thinking back, wonder if it was a part of their 'inbuilt' personalities (that we all have, with our starsigns, since thats the topic discussed here). Both men basically behaved in exactly the same way, towards me...which had me wondering, at the time, whether it was the 'Scorpio' in them.
Not that that would stop me dating a Scorpio man in future...I dont let any 'starsign' stop me from dating someone! :)
I am a Taurus myself and my most successful matches up-to-date have been: Aquarius, Gemini, and Taurus, respectively.

Ive lived with a Taurus man...NOT a good match for a headstrong Saggi/Capricorn like myself! lol Two 'bulls at a gate' in the same household? OH No, not a good idea lol...

bourff: I notice no woman said anything about a Libra, which is what I am. Whats up with that? Libras not good enough? LOL
I've dated a few Libran guys, they were veeerrrrrry charming. Wandering eyes though...they loved the ladies, but mainly, they loved the ladies they hadn't had yet. Just my experience of course.

Scorpios love very intensely and in my experience, once they consider you to be theirs, they'll want everything you have. They want to know what you're thinking, what you thought before you met them, etc. It's quite a ride, even though in my experience, you'll never really know them.
Scorpios have always amazed me with their stories of how they'll get even with people who cross them. They'll cheerfully wait, for years if necessary, to get even. They are wonderful people and incredibly loyal, but fearsome adversaries.

Oh yes, these two I mentioned, loved VERY intensely. Scarily intensely...
