Understanding Your Distant Scorpio Man — Why Does He Pull Away?

Boundaries Are Busted

The Scorpio man is good at creating personal boundaries, so if you happen to break one of these, he may pull back to think things over and try to figure out if you’re who he really wants.

Perhaps he lives alone, and you just show up on the fly. He hates that! A Scorpio man wants you to call or text him first. It’s not that he’s doing anything he doesn’t want you to know about; he just believes in healthy boundaries.

Also, doing things like picking up his phone to check it out or digging through his stuff in his car or home will tick him off. He likely isn’t hiding anything, so just ask him before you rifle through his stuff.

He May Be Losing Interest In You

Naturally, when a Scorpio man shuts you out, it might be that he’s losing interest. If he finds something in you that doesn’t sit well with him then again, he will pull back and think it over or he’ll close the door.

This will be when he just isn’t responding to you anymore at all. He stops texting and calling, and he also doesn’t answer if you try to reach him. He wants nothing more to do with it and could potentially ghost you.

A Scorpio man loses interest when he thinks that you’re not exciting anymore, or if he sees qualities in you that just really don’t match with what he wants in a lifelong partner. It can really be anything – he’s very picky.

There’s Too Much Going On

When a Scorpio man has too much going on, he will have problems trying to juggle everything. If he has extra work or he took a new position that requires a lot of him, he will pull back. This applies to family issues he may have as well.

He has a tendency to take on too much sometimes, and he doesn’t know how to balance very well. A Scorpio man can also have a tendency to be a workaholic, trying to further his career.

When your Scorpio guy becomes too immersed in other things outside of your relationship, he’ll almost definitely get frustrated and overwhelmed. That makes him withdraw a bit. When he can talk to you about it, he most likely will, so don’t panic.

He’s Angry Or Upset

This one should seem more noticeable to you if you two had an argument or disagreed. He may feel disturbed, which will force him to take pause and see if he wants to go further.

You can tell if he’s upset with you for those types of things because you’ll notice the change in his eyes and facial expressions when you’re talking to him. That being said, give him some space and a little time to cool off.

What To Do When A Scorpio Man Pulls Away

When a Scorpio shuts you out, you need to know what you can do to make it so that he doesn’t say goodbye and walk away.

You really have to have patience, love, and loyalty and give him time to work himself out. If you can tell he’s upset with you, tell him that you care and that if he needs to talk, reach out.

Then you give him some space for a bit. Wait a week or so, then you can reach out to him and ask him how he’s doing. That will show you’re not done with him and that you’re still his.

When a Scorpio man is overwhelmed with his life, it’s the same deal. He’ll get back to you when the insane become saner. It won’t be forever. Don’t push him, though, because if you do, he may end it and tell you he cannot have a relationship.

You have to be very careful with this sensitive scorpion. He isn’t able to handle too much, so if you make yourself scarce while he figures out his other stuff, he’ll gladly come back to you and will probably miss you!

The Scorpio man wants security in his love and relationships. You will have to prove to him that you are indeed there for him. If he’s playing head games, play along and give him the information he wants.

Do exactly what he wants you to do (within reason). If he doesn’t reach out to see what happens, then reach out to him and tell him you’re thinking of him and ask him how he’s doing. He loves having a support system. You can do this!

When To Walk Away From A Scorpio Man

Are you wondering if you should walk away from your Scorpio man? I can only imagine that his behavior is probably extremely confusing and feels like an emotional rollercoaster at times. One moment you are higher than high, and the next you are lower than low.

This can definitely feel like emotional abuse or a toxic relationship if you aren’t used to recognizing the red flags. You might start to realize that it is time for you to walk away from a Scorpio man because you have tried everything I have suggested and he is still treating you like dirt.

This is definitely not fair to you, and I would never recommend that a woman stay in a toxic relationship that will only end up hurting her more. So if you feel like you have tried everything I have suggested, then I would urge you to step away and stop giving your Scorpio man chances. You deserve a lot more than what he is giving you.

If you feel like your Scorpio man has pulled so far away that he is starting to act a bit shady and you don’t completely trust him anymore, then it is time to walk away from him. You deserve better, and I am sure you know this already.

Always remember that you deserve to be loved and respected. Never chase love, attention, or affection. If it isn’t given to you freely, then it isn’t worth having.

Is A Scorpio Man Testing Me By Pulling Away?

Yep, he’ll sometimes do things like this to see where your loyalty is, if you have patience, and if you’re willing to reach out to him first. Will you get frustrated and run? That’s what he wants to know.

Scorpio men love to test you and see what you’re made of when they really like you. He wants to be totally sure that you’ll be there for him when the hard times come. Knowing you’re as solid as a rock will give him comfort that he can rely on you.

A Scorpio man has a strong desire for commitment and loyalty, so you can expect to be tested to prove your dedication and trustworthiness. Scorpio men can provoke jealousy, pushing emotional boundaries, and he may observe your reaction to challenging situations.

A Scorpio man feels powerful because he knows that being emotionally manipulative will give him what he desires out of the relationship. And this is why he has a tendency to test his partner over and over again to see if she will stick around.

What Not To Do When A Scorpio Man Is Pushing You Away

When a Scorpio man is pushing you away, there is usually a reason for this. But the thing you need to remember about his sign is that he is actually very shy and introspective. He is more of an introvert than you probably realize.

This is why my advice would be for you not to leave him alone for the time being so that he can get the space and distance he desires. Scorpio is intense and prone to drama, so not putting extra pressure on him will make him think that you don’t understand him and that you are not interested in him. You don’t want that!

Let him come to you, and don’t chase him. Don’t sound needy and clingy, but show him you are interested by creating a distance for him to miss you. I know it probably hurts, but you need to allow him to realize how respectful you are of his space.

What Scares A Scorpio Man Away?

A Scorpio man can fall in love quickly without thinking it through. When this happens, there are things that suddenly dawn on him. Though he may feel he can open up to you, he may also suddenly think he can’t trust you.

It may be nothing at all that scares him. Then again, maybe you could have said something that led him down a dark road and made him feel as though maybe he was making a mistake.

Why Does A Scorpio Push Love Away?

Sometimes it happens that a Scorpio man changes his mind. He felt hot and happy about you, but then figured out some things that maybe didn’t feel good anymore for him, and he pushed the love away.

It could also be that he met someone else and feels that the other person may be better for him. It’s not very common for him to not let you know if he’s into someone else or wants to call it off. It can happen, though.

Do Scorpio Men Come Back After Pulling Away?

But, how can you tell a Scorpio man is done with you? Find out here <<

If a Scorpio man misses you in his absence and realizes that you are living rent-free in his head, he will come back to you.

Does Your Scorpio Man Disappear After Intimacy?

Does your Scorpio man pull away or get quiet when you’ve just had a deep emotional connection? Or does he seem to disappear just when you thought he was getting closer? Have you felt confused by his hot and cold behavior?

If so, then he might have an avoidant attachment style.

He could be Dismissive Avoidant and completely terrified of commitment… Or he could be Fearful, Avoidant and REALLY want commitment… But get scared when he feels himself getting closer to you.

If he has either one of these attachment styles, you’re going to end up feeling extremely confused at times.

And both are caused by childhood trauma.

When you can see the scared little boy inside him that had to shut down his feelings if he’s a dismissive avoidant… Or have a parent not provide his needs consistently if he’s a fearful avoidant…

It can make it easier to have empathy and compassion for his confusing and frustrating behavior. 

But that won’t fix it.

And while advice on attachment styles can be helpful… What you really need to stop this frustrating hot and cold cycle is to understand him better.

Thankfully, there is a simple system to TRULY understand how he ticks based on his astrology <<

It will stop your Scorpio man from pulling away when you begin feeling closer. And it will be accomplished in only 30 days.
