The way out of an affair can be dangerous. Scorpio has a bad temper, and a head-on confrontation may prove disastrous. Better to use more subtle methods.
Taper off on the affection Scorpio so badly needs. Don't bother with the usual hugging, kissing, or verbal assurances of love.

Put your own interests first. Complain that you don't get enough attention. Brood and sulk. Point out frequently, and precisely, what they have done wrong on any social occasion.
Monopolize conversations, even when you don't really know what you're talking about.

In the bedroom, don't let him or her have everything their own way.

Never praise them.

If you're a woman trying to break with Scorpio male, be a lousy housekeeper and let the house fall apart. Invite people to the house for a party and choose the kind of boisterous guests who are likely to tear up "the nest" a little.

If you're male, drop ashes everywhere, scatter your clothes and newspapers, leave dirty finger marks on the walls. Letting Scorpio's home deteriorate is almost as unforgivable as doubting Scorpio's infallibility!

Make Scorpio jealous, then laugh at their possessiveness-and go right on doing what you're doing. If they demand an explanation, offer the kind that could be put between covers and published as fiction.

Scorpio won't stick around any longer than a purpose snatcher.

But remember-never argue! You may break up the relationship, but you may also depart on a stretcher!
