Once again...it has been proven to me how the typical capiricorn is and I find them to have qualities that I can't respect. I had a conversation with a cappie friend to day who has always been oportunistic. materialistic and likes to dominate a conversation without letting the other person talk--very aggravating. He also condesended to me, making me feel that what we were talking about was new to me even though I know more about it than him! So, I think the astrology books are right my Libran friends--that cappies and librans are not compatible. I once had to end a friendship with a very nasty, meanspirited cappie a few years ago..I had to work with a cappie woman who was the snobbiest, opportunistic person ever, my late father was a cappie and even though he loved me...I had trouble talking to him as well. So there you have it. Librans and Cappies don't mesh--and please don't type back some message that says something like..."maybe there were other factors involved...or, what do you think was the real reason"..or some overly opptimistic, view through rose tinted glasses approach. Some signs just aren't meant to be and I think Librans and Cappies are one such type. I hold my experiences well high.
details
I think you are right Sloane.........I've seen Librans and Caps in actions.......the "nicey nicey, eager to please" libran does not gel well with the "I'm a cut above the rest and I'll use every which way and path to achieve where I want to be" cappy. Also I think both signs are the zodiac "snobs" - Librans thinks they are the most artistic, altruistic, honest sign around- intellectually higher than most!!!...but the bottom line is the Cap thinks along the same lines....they think they are "untouchable" in the intellectual stakes also - so when the two "snobs" collide - it's not usually wham bam!!!!
details
I think you are right on you are a long way from being on there level. Try to confine your conversations to outher librans this should keep you out of trouble. ROFL
details
Sorry James--I don't mean to offend you in any way--it's not my nature. However, it has been a consistent pattern with experienced realtionships with Cappies...they either go sour or a Cappie will piss me off.
details
Sloane my luv, you did not offend me. I am not like the outher caps, I am not intellectual nor am I a snob. I know were I am on the food chain and I like to think I am down to earth. I really think that signs have little to do with the kind of behavor you are talking about. I find snobs and would be intellectuals in every sign. The one thing I can do quite well is piss people off when I want to.

luv you james

Thanks Alana...
details
I thought Libras were considered like the "darlings" of the zodiac.
details
Haha, love Alana's description of the libran snobiness! I suppose vain and narcistic are more appropriate Winking
Well, ive got Capricorn in Mars so I'd better not bag them. I have never had trouble getting along with Capricorns, infact, i resonate with them quite well. A relationship would be a different thing however. A lot of people think i am a Capricorn. Does this mean i am snobby? I hope so, lol! But i can see your point Sloane about why Capricorns and Librans can never usually get along. The traditional libran would find Capricorns priorities completely wrong. Me, i find them okay, but as i said, in a love relationship i prefer somebody a little more ethereal/out there with the Universe. What i really want is a down to earth, level headed and highly sexually charged Aquarian. Is this possible? Lol.
PS. It probably works both ways. Capricorns probably find us too aesthetic and not 'realistic' enough. Just had to be 'fair' then. Such a libran.
details
You know though, Sloane, there just might have been other factors involved.



I have no place in this conversation, what with my Moon in Libra =)
details
Oh, crikeys, I'm almost late for Acting I-- gotta go!
details
Hey..I just call it as I see it..or based on what I've experienced. Lazlow, I wish I could find a sexy Aquarian also!!
details
hmm.. I dated a cappie once whom I got along with famously.. until we dated that is.. don't really know what happened.. but we ended on somewhat of an odd note.. however, usually the case is that I get along with cappies pretty well.. they're pretty supportive to me..
(j's planets are placed in water and earth signs actually, so I'm assuming that that has something to do with me being able to get along with earth/ water people.. i guess).. there's a cappy right now furiously in pursuit as we speak, and I'm actually happy to have seen this post here tonight..because I'm a little shy to enter into another relationship right now.. this gives me extra time to procrastinate answering... nice..
details
Sloane, that was Libragirl that said that not me. lol
Jaya, I think that you have one of those personalities that meshes well with anybody! You should date a Gemini next! hehehe smile
details
hey alana, I really like your honesty.. maybe libras are perceived to be intellectual snobs..but I know that it's the furthest thing from our minds actually.. it's happened to me too at some point, and believe it or not..my being superior to someone else is always the furthest thing from my mind actually.. I found it odd that another found me intellectually snobbish myself.. I find that I always need to research alot about everything that I make decisions on, so I'll never have enough information.. meaning that I find myself actually intellectually inferior most of the time.. in conversations, especially if it's a topic I know very little about, I tend to keep quiet unless I can say something with complete conviction and certainty that it can be proven true.. does that make me a snob..? Well, if it does..then c'est la vie! I'd rather be an informed snob than an unresearched run at the mouth..and yes..I'm sorry about my delivery everyone.. it's really late at night, I'm afraid I'm not as charming as when I have more energy to deliver.. we all can learn something pleasing to and from each other.. i guess.. PS.. Alana, I am not throwing stones at you or anyone.. just clearing the smoke..
details
thanks lazlow (romeclone?).. i really enjoyed dating a gemini once..i actually think that he was my soulmate.. hmm..we both moved to other countries and it fizzled.. Sadmaybe life will deal me some good fortune again sometime, huh? Winking
details

Help!! i am a libra. i never ever dated a capricorn and am finding myself baffled.....annoyed.....and when i read these messages realized that there is no hope. he fits the prototype to a t. i feel he thinks im an idiot...even though i am an ivy league grad. i feel he doesnt find me fun...funny, nothing. i also feel used. we fooled around and he never mentioned it again. to be honest. he's kinda creepy cuz i never know what he is thinking. he gives me no affirmation. i am sexy, fun loving...honest..crazy...and cant deal w/the dud spud. ugh!

details
yeah... sure... I have some nice thoughts for you lola..
I ironically, started seeing a cappie three weeks ago..
for kicks and giggles.. he's awesome..and he's even
way more affectionate than I am (j. awards him 20 points).
That's how he won me over. I'm usually so afraid to show
any sign of my emotions, because of my highly sensitive
nature..you know.. the emotional occas. slights.. wrecks me quite
a bit when they actually occur.. but he was loving and straight
to the point- and he bathed me in non- stop affection, which got
me to shed emot. barriers.. I really met him half way after that, and got to know a little bit more about him rather than just being pleasant enough by saying hello and have great day. I'm glad that I did stop and take the time, because it seems to me now, that he's exactly what I've been looking for all this time. It's even funnier still to think that I've spent the first six months of knowing him
running away actually in his opp. direction.. hmm..smile go figure* He's got a Libra Ascendant also, and he's truly the most genuine, absolutely affectionate guy I've dated in the last year.. Yes, it does get a little weird and messy when i think that I'm dating myself sometimes, but the security that I've found in this Lib/Cap relationship is nice.. and it's warm and cozy too.. We've only just now gotten to the part where he wants to be in control, and I love it for him, just as long as his mutant control tactics do not extend towards me.. hm.. whatever happened to relationship solidarity? And yes.. I do sometimes get that feeling that I'm completely clueless when I'm with him too..but not so much so that it's unbearable.. it's more of a short passing thing.. you'll need an example... this past weekend, we drove to Rhode Island. He asked me along so that I could give him directions as he drove..but when I suggested an exit or an approach that might lead to a shorter drive, Out came the snicker of doom, and then he'd just ask to see the directions himself. putz! I merely handed them over, and then refused to take the dir. back afterwards.. and also remained silent for 10 minutes until he apologized to me..Today, I was lectured about my silent pouting by him.. so buyer please beware.. this method may lead to dual daftness.. The relationship takes some work, but I'm liking our thing very much anyway.. Hope this helps luv..

Once you go capricorn you never go back.
details
At least the money's good, right James?
details
I am a capricorn who spends it as fast as I make it do not plan to live long. we have a good time like you americans say live hard die young leave a good looking corpes. Sloane you arte right I make money do not know how I do it something always comes along to take care of the bills. I do not plan a head, I get head now and then ,but never plan for it . yes I am on my aris as I wright, and looking over my shoulder is the dreaded Den. who just cookiemonster slaped me.
details
You have it easy cuz your a man. Men get more opportunities than women. It's true.
details
I'm a little reluctant to greet the oncoming truth in men get more opportunities sloane.. but you know, maybe things are changing around to accommodate our smarts too!! Any time is a good time!
As for the cappie running along side this one tooth...(meaning myself naturally..hehe).. this could turn into a book signing!! Ok newsflash update: The control factor mutates guys!!.. so watch out ladies!! as soon as I think I've got it isolated out and quarantined.. that little sucker ups and mutates again!! damn bastard mutant won't be cured!! hehehe..but he's my mutant i guess.. mutant control syndrome and all.. damn! I used to think myself up a controlling appetite before, until I met him, that is..huh? Oh well..
we'll just keep yelling at each other until one of us gives in.. hehehe ..movie producers.. I'll be starting bids on our story..as of 06:00... Winking
Actually guys, other than him wanting to maintain control over everything, including me sometimes, he's quite ok.. and he's really funny too!! hehehe.. he says I crack him up when I'm angry, because I try to say things that bother me in a dramatic way, which he thinks is really funny! go figure.. I'm p'od and he's laughing at me! hmph.. but then I end up laughing too.. monster mutant guy!
details
damn it..i sound as if i'm enjoying cap control to myself after that post!!
details
the sag is in control here she get away with letting me think i am in control. she gets it all except new tits I will not pay for that.
details
Jaya--you never seem to agree with me on anything!
"The control factor mutates guys"---what does this mean? I always thought that no one--regardless of thier gender likes to be controlled. I always beleived and still do that men get away with so much sprinkle in the workplace and in some companies, they still do. I know it's true--I've seen it and I have worked for a long time. Don't get me wrong--I'm no man hater--I actually relate to men better than women sometimes but when it comes to job hiring or general opportunities and support--men edge out.
details
Look at all the execs that ran those top corporate companies like Enron and now Tyco's Koslowski is getting his due. You never hear about women screwing over people to run a company. Martha Stewart is the only exception so far when it comes to insincerity but even then, she had those snakes Sam Waskal and her gay accounting asssistant rat her out. Gees, look at Congress..look at politicians! Same story. Hopefully anyone who operates any company or organization will pay thier dues.
details
Tongue Okay..okay babe.. I skipped right on through to another topic in the middle of writing my response, so I can see how it would be a bit confusing for you or anyone in reading it.. ~sorry about that~
"The control factor mutates.."---

on this one..I was talking about Cappies wanting to control or dominate their Libran mates.. well atleast, my friend seems to "want" to dominate me a little over half of the time.. I think the concept of sharing is actually a bit difficult with him sometimes.. because I'm always trying to get him to share some of the responsibilities with me.. instead of watching him do EVERYTHING all alone, and with out my help.. I have trouble even suggesting ideas to him about anything sometimes.. so it's really rare when I can soothe him enough to let me help out.. it's when he gives in and accepts the help, that I start thinking that we'd actually moved past our one sided period..but no..it hasn't happened as yet.. it's simply that he may be too tired to saddle up and get his motor skills in gear, so he decides to go with whatever plan there is at the time.. on top of this.. As an individual, I'm never able to break through his defense (control) system again with the same kind of soothing..it's like his system actually becomes immune-- adapting each time it is relaxed by someone else's motions.. I don't think that we have a partnership in this love relationship just yet..but I'm willing to whip him to get it.. hey whatever it takes.. if he doesn't come over with sugar.. i'm closing up shop and moving to timbuktu.. funny thing is..i have a feeling that he'll try to uncover me from my hiding spot all over again..
details
cont'd:
"funny thing is..i have a feeling that he'll try to uncover me from my hiding spot all over again..if i do."
and this time i do agree with you sloane.. my post says that "I'm reluctant to face the oncoming truth.." I only merely went on to say that things may be changing very soon in the not too distant future.. sorry for the confusion sloane.. smile
