Out of all the signs in the zodiac, Scorpio tends to be the most misunderstood. They’re known for being mysterious, sexy, and intense. They’re very direct about what they want, which can be a little off-putting to some. If you do them wrong, good luck — that scorpion stinger can really hurt. When it comes to dating, Scorpios have a reputation for being hard to get to know. So what does that mean for two Scorpios in a relationship? Scorpio and Scorpio’s compatibility shows why this double scorpion pair can make for a spicy hot relationship.

Scorpio and Scorpio provide a mirror for each other, where they can see and understand their best and worst selves in their partner,” Stina Garbis, professional astrologer and psychic, tells Bustle. “Scorpio is the most intense sign, and this partnership is no less than that.”

When the relationship is good, they tend to bring out the very best in each other. Scorpios are loyal to the core. If they choose to make a commitment to someone, they’ll put in the effort to make sure the relationship lasts, come what may.

“This relationship may be full of secrets, mystery, and intrigue, where they share everything that they hide from the world with their partner who truly gets them,” Garbis says. “The longer this couple is together, and is learning from each other, the more they [both] transform.”

Scorpios are fixed signs, which means they tend to be very stubborn and set in their ways. They’re also Water signs, so they’re very sensitive and emotional. Because of this duality, fights between two Scorpios can become very heated. If they’re not careful, Garbis says they could easily turn into “a toxic mess that goes on and on, where no one will throw in the towel until the relationship and their sense of self-esteem [are] completely destroyed.”

Scorpio & Scorpio’s Sexual Compatibility

Sexually, two Scorpios make a really good match. According to Garbis, they tend to have particular tastes and fantasies that may include latex, BDSM, and sexual power play. “This couple explores boundaries and the taboo,” Garbis says. “The aggressive nature of Scorpio can come out in the bedroom, and this couple can have angry and edgy passionate interludes.”

In addition, Scorpios tend to view sex as a way to fully connect with their partner both physically and emotionally. If they have a strong emotional bond, it will take their sex life to another level. “Deep understanding can turn into some wild dreams coming true,” Garbis says.

Scorpio & Scorpio’s Emotional Compatibility

The scorpion is a highly emotional sign, so emotions are an area of their relationship that may cause quite a few problems. According to Garbis, two Scorpios in a relationship can be dangerous as they’re prone to obsessions, jealousy, and bouts of rage, due to their ancient ruler, Mars. If they don’t keep their emotions in check, fights can be explosive.

“This couple can hold resentments and judge each other pretty harshly, and [be unable] to let things go,” Garbis says. “Disagreements could last years.” If their buttons are pushed hard enough, they can get really mean and personal. Once you hurt a Scorpio, there’s no turning back.

Scorpios don’t trust very easily, so they’ll take their time getting to know each other. Once they start opening up, that’s where things get good. Scorpios are very attentive partners, and have an all-or-nothing approach to love. Once they decide they’re committed to someone, they would do anything for them. If two Scorpios have a mature relationship with open and honest communication, they can create a deep emotional bond that lasts.

Scorpio & Scorpio’s Communication

Scorpios are notoriously secretive and have a hard time opening up because they don’t trust people very easily. Since Scorpios know their sign best, there’s a good chance they may be hesitant to share their deepest, darkest secrets with their partner. According to Garbis, Scorpios have a tendency of using people’s words against them when they feel like they’ve been wronged. Establishing a strong foundation of trust is key for two Scorpios to communicate openly and honestly with each other. Once there’s trust and commitment, Scorpios are very loyal and will keep their secrets between the two of them.

Scorpio & Scorpio’s Dating Compatibility

When it comes to dating, Scorpio and Scorpio can go either way. When they first meet, it can go either way — they can either hit it off or hate each other immediately. There’s no in between with this sign. According to Garbis, “It’s an exotic and enticing match that’s sure to tease, please and excite. Regardless of if it’s love or hate, the sexual attraction runs deep.”

Once in a relationship, they may go through their share of ups and downs. These two are very passionate water signs who feel things very deeply and act on their emotions. Because of this, their fights can be just as intense as their sex life.

“Whether or not this relationship will last depends upon the people involved,” Garbis says. “Two Scorpios may have so much fixed water, that things could turn sour very easily. It may be too much intensity without a lot of balance for this relationship to last. However, an evolved Scorpio match could teach rather than injure, and they may grow a very tight bond of understanding and rejuvenation. They may be able to help each other get over some pretty dark issues.”

Scorpio & Scorpio’s Friendship Compatibility

The friendship compatibility between two Scorpios isn’t very high. In fact, Garbis says they can make for a potentially “dangerous” or “toxic” match filled with competition and jealousy. Two Scorpios may find themselves competing constantly to the point it starts affecting their wider friend group. “This is the type of friendship that gets along great in the beginning, but has a crazy blow up which leads to talking about each other behind their backs,” she says. When Scorpio feels like they’ve been betrayed or done wrong, there’s no going back. It’s not uncommon for them to get mean or cut people off completely.

Potential Problems In A Scorpio & Scorpio Relationship

Scorpios are known for their intensity, which can get them into trouble. Scorpios don’t give their heart away to just anyone, so once they do, it’s a huge deal for them. Because of this, they’re prone to jealousy and can get very possessive over their partner. If they don’t keep those feelings in check, it may create a toxic situation in their relationship where one partner “tests” the loyalty of the other.

Trust issues may also pose a problem for these two. Scorpios are very private and don’t easily open up to others. You might know a Scorpio for decades and not know who they truly are deep down. They also have difficulty trusting the motives of others. If two Scorpios want to maintain the deep connection they both crave in a relationship, it’s important for them to let each other in fully.

Are Scorpio & Scorpio A Good Match?

Overall, Scorpio and Scorpio can be a good match because they understand how each other operates and can appreciate it. Nobody understands a Scorpio better than another Scorpio. “This partnership brings out the best of Scorpio’s qualities,” Garbis says. Together, a Scorpio couple can brave any situation, as long as they’re willing be open-hearted.
