‘Scorpios will stab you and convince you that you stabbed yourself…’
IT’S just not written in the stars for some people to be together. Although some folks believe that our zodiac signs have no real significance on our personalities, there are others who find too many similarities in people under a particular star sign to be mere coincidence. This is especially true when one has had a string of lovers from one sign, and they all turn out to have similar characteristics.
These readers share their experiences dating under the stars, and warn you which signs are not compatible with which.
Nadine, 39, stay-at-home mom:
I’m a Sagittarius and I have no business with a Scorpio or Capricorn. Scorpio men are emotionally manipulative, narcissistic liars. Capricorns are charming, but they’re horrible. My current partner is a Leo, and he gets mean and aggressive sometimes, but I know that’s just the lion coming out.
Shantell, 23, customer service rep:
Scorpio men are too aggressive and domineering. They love to give bun, but they are very insecure. I am a Scorpio myself, and I’ve been with a Scorpio for nearly five years. I know all the tricks in his book now. I’m not like him though.
Dean, 27, athlete:
I don’t usually follow up these things but every Gemini girl I know is crazy. One minute she says this and the next minute she changes her mind. She can’t live without you today and tomorrow she wants space. You’re watching a funny movie and laughing and she just starts bawling out of nowhere. They go from zero to 100 real quick. They are so confusing, if you try to study them you’ll get mad.
Sher, 32, nail technician:
I think Cancer men are too sensitive. They will treat you well, but they get hurt too easily. They are also very stingy and don’t like to spend money on women. I’m a Capricorn and I prefer men who are either Leos, Virgos, or the ones later up in the year.
Natalie, 25, online chat support agent:
I honestly don’t really believe in the signs and how they behave. Because I met two men from the same sign and they were two completely different men by far. I mean, you can have two people grow up the same way, and fall under the same sign, but at the end of the day it’s based on what they experience and what they would rather do.
Kerry, 28, fast food restaurant worker:
The Scorpios are very manipulative. They will stab you and convince you that you stabbed yourself. They are Casanovas. They will charm you out of your own clothes, but they are evil and manipulative. And Cancers will do the worst things to you and then turn around and play the victim.
Shantaye, 27, student:
Well, I think all men are trash. The signs can help you decide what kind of trash you are willing to recycle, but all of them have their negative sides. I’m a Taurus, and I will never be with a Gemini or Cancer man again in my life. They are at the bottom of the rubbish heap.
Javaughn, 38, pharmacy technician:
I’m a Pisces, and I can tell all Pisces men never to take up Aquarius or Libra girls. They are great in bed but they are tricky and love money.
Rayna, 25, housewife:
Gemini and Taurus are just not compatible. I’ve never seen a relationship with two of them working out well.
Sheena, 30, teacher:
I don’t really believe in it but I’d never date a Sagittarius. My dad is one and he is the Devil himself.
Nicholas, 34, teacher:
I will date any girl except the ones under my sign. I’m a Virgo, and I just can’t get along with Virgo women. Maybe we have too much in common, or maybe they’re just too stubborn.
Shauna, 30, attorney:
When I meet a new person, one of the first set of questions I ask is when they were born. I’m a Leo, and I find that I am most compatible with Sagittarius, and I’m least compatible with Aires, Taurus, and Scorpio.
