so when my partner and I got together basically everyone in our lives had the same reaction: "two scorpios?? that's either gonna be amazing or a total disaster." we've been together almost three years now and I'm here to say... it's amazing. mostly.

the intensity thing people warn you about is real but it's not what you think. we don't fight constantly. what actually happens is we both FEEL everything so deeply that when things are good, they're really good. like we connect on a level I've never had with anyone else. no surface conversations, no pretending. just real.

we did have to figure out the trust thing. two scorpios means two people who are naturally suspicious and don't give their hearts easily. the beginning was honestly us both holding back and testing each other. but once we both decided to actually commit? that loyalty is unreal. I know without any doubt he has my back and he knows the same.

the only real challenge is when we're both in our shadow sides at the same time. like if we're both stressed or feeling insecure, it can spiral because we mirror each other's energy so intensely. we had to learn to basically call a timeout and come back when at least one of us had processed. took a while to figure that out but now it's like second nature.

anyway just wanted to share because I was so nervous going in and it turned out to be the most transformative relationship of my life. if you're a scorpio considering another scorpio, don't let people scare you off.
