What Happens After a Scorpio Man Breaks Up with You

Updated December 12, 2024

If your relationship with this dark and mysterious sign has ended, you are probably wondering what happens to a Scorpio man after a breakup.

Does he move on quickly, or does he need time to get over you?

As one of the most mystifying and cunning signs of the zodiac, it can be hard to determine how a Scorpio will behave or what he is truly feeling.

When it comes to a Scorpio man, you are better off learning about his sign’s typical personality traits than trying to decode his actions.

By understanding his zodiac sign’s psychological characteristics, you will be able to predict what your Scorpio ex is doing after he breaks up with you.

He is Quick To Move On Physically

he is quick to move on physically

This can be difficult to hear, but it’s true: a Scorpio wastes no time finding a new sexual partner after a breakup.

A Scorpio moves on quickly for several reasons. First, he has a strong sexual appetite and can’t go without a sexual partner for very long.

Second, he needs reassurance that other people find him attractive and want to be with him, even if he is the one who dumped you.

And third, a Scorpio man might sleep with someone else soon after your breakup in hopes that you hear about it and it hurts your feelings.

Don’t bother looking on social media or asking your mutual friends to find out if your Scorpio ex is seeing or sleeping with someone else shortly after your breakup, because the answer is almost certainly yes.

He is Slow To Move On Emotionally

he is slow to move on emotionally

Although he is quick to move on physically, it takes a very long time for a Scorpio guy to recover emotionally from a breakup.

No matter what he says or does to indicate otherwise, he misses his ex and has a hard time moving past the breakup.

Even if he jumps into a new relationship with another woman, he still thinks about his ex. It’s entirely possible for a Scorpio man to be in love with more than one woman at a time.

Rest assured that even if your Scorpio ex seems happy with his new partner, he still reminisces on your time together and wonders how you are doing.

He Hurts Deeply

he hurts deeply

He might try to hide it, but a Scorpio guy suffers emotionally after a breakup. He might try to put up a tough front, but a broken heart is hard for him to mend.

If you dated him, then you probably already know that your Scorpio man feels his feelings profoundly and that they can overwhelm and consume him.

Even if your Scorpio man acts like he doesn’t care, you can be sure that he is faking it and that inside, he is hurting deeply.

No matter how quickly he moves on or how hard he tries to conceal it, your breakup leaves a painful wound on your Scorpio ex’s heart that takes a long time to fully heal, if it ever does.

He Expresses His Emotions

he expresses his emotions

Most Scorpios are in touch with their feelings and have learned from experience that they need a positive emotional outlet.

When a Scorpio tries to bottle his feelings or push them aside, they will still come out in an explosive way eventually. He needs to recognize his emotions and get ahead of them to manage them properly.

After a breakup, a Scorpio guy will express his feelings, whether he does so intentionally and constructively or impulsively and destructively.

He might go to therapy or channel his emotional energy into a hobby, or he might lash out at the people around him or fall into a depression.

Even if he tries to smother his feelings, a Scorpio man can’t help but express his intense emotions in some way after a breakup.

He Obsesses

he obsesses

Some signs feel a sense of freedom and closure after a breakup. No matter how much it hurts, they know that ending the relationship was the right decision and now they can find someone who is better suited to them.

But a Scorpio obsesses over the end of a relationship, trying to figure out what went wrong, what he could have done differently, and how he can avoid making the same mistakes in the future.

Even when a Scorpio man dumps you, he blames himself for the breakup and for not heeding the warning signs that the relationship wouldn’t work out.

He will replay moments from the relationship over and over in his mind, driving himself crazy trying to determine what he can do to control the situation next time.

He Never Forgives Or Forgets

he never forgives or forgets

Some signs are more forgiving than others, but Scorpio is possibly the least forgiving sign of the entire zodiac.

If you have wronged a Scorpio man, he will never forget it, and no matter what he says to indicate otherwise, he never really forgives you, either.

Even if you are a perfect fit for the typical Scorpio man likes and dislikes in a woman, he will never get over whatever happened to end the relationship.

If you betrayed him, said something horrible to him, or did something else to hurt him that caused the breakup, your Scorpio man will hold onto his grudge against you for the rest of his life.

There is nothing you can do to completely make it up to him or help him get over it because that’s simply not how a Scorpio’s brain or heart works.

He Gets Revenge

he gets revenge

Not only will a Scorpio man hold a grudge against you forever but he will also almost certainly seek revenge.

If your Scorpio man dumped you because you cheated on him, he may retaliate by rubbing his new relationship in your face.

Scorpios are very deliberate and calculated, so don’t think that his actions are unintentional or coincidental.

When a Scorpio man hurts you, he is trying to get back at you for all the emotional pain you have caused him. He knows exactly what he is doing and won’t hesitate to hit you where it hurts the most.

When a Scorpio man is mad at you, he wants to make you just as upset as he is. He can expect him to seek revenge and that you will suffer as much as he did.

He Won’t Come Back

he won't come back

Some signs are quick to get over any issues they had with their ex and are happy to get back together.

Other signs spend a long time vacillating over the decision to break up, wondering whether or not they made the right choice.

But when a Scorpio man is done with you, he won’t waver on his decision and he won’t come back.

Even when a Scorpio man wants you back, he is too proud to admit it and he will never let you know that he is pining over you.

He Overindulges

he overindulges

Some signs thrive after a breakup and channel their emotions and newfound freedom into work or a creative project.

But Scorpios often have addictive personalities and tend to be self-destructive after a breakup. If a Scorpio man misses you, he will drown his sorrows in his vice of choice.

Whether he is into alcohol, spending money, food, sex, drugs, or something else, you can bet that your Scorpio ex is overindulging a lot after your breakup.

He will go on crazy shopping sprees, get wasted at parties and bars, or find anyone to take home at the end of the night to try to make himself feel better and get over you.

If you see photos on social media of your Scorpio ex partying or wearing new designer clothes after your breakup, it doesn’t mean that he’s doing well and having a great time since you split.

It really means that he is suffering deeply and is trying to drown his sorrows any way he can in an attempt to soothe himself.

This one weird trick is the only way to attract a Scorpio man. →

He Doesn’t Want You To Move On

he doesn't want you to move on

When a Scorpio man wants you to be his, he wants you to be his forever, even after you have broken up.

After you part ways, you can bet that your Scorpio ex still keeps tabs on you. He will look you up online or ask your mutual friends how you are doing.

Some signs want to hear that their exes are doing well and moving on, but what a Scorpio man wants to hear is that you never got over him.

He doesn’t want to hear that you are better off without him, that you have moved on and are dating someone new, or that you have found success in any area of your life after the breakup.

A Scorpio guy would like to think that losing him was the biggest mistake you ever made and that you are losing your mind yearning for him.

No matter how much he loved and cared about you, he doesn’t want to see you do well without him. And if he holds resentment towards you, then he definitely doesn’t want you to thrive after your breakup.
