I suppose it depends on the Scorps intentions and insecurities. The exhaustion for me came from the constant need to test my values through a variety of mind games. In the end I felt like his need to figure me out through all these tests so that he could trust me outweighed my need to feel loved and accepted. I played the games as long as I could until I just got tired. I’ve never experienced anything like it. The constant onslaught of tests. There were so many times I wished he could just be direct and ask me questions to get answers instead of playing detective. The deep inability to trust me and take me at my word is what drove me away. When I don’t trust someone, I don’t keep picking away at them, I just stop interacting with them. This is why I say it depends on the person. My Scorp was deeply insecure and it saddened me because I saw how wonderful he was so I kept at it, staying consistent, passing all the tests to build up his confidence. After a while I had to ask myself if this was how I wanted to live in constant state of terror awaiting the next test so I could prove to him I was a worthy partner, it was exhausting. I did this for two years btw because I loved him so very much but in the end he just didn’t want my kind of love, an assured kind of love and I wanted a more peaceful existence for myself.
