Capricorn man...... is he crazy?

This topic was created in the Capricorn forum by FierceSagittarius on Saturday, March 11, 2006 and has 21 replies.
I started talking to this guy who is a capricorn and he cant get enough of me. Its sweet but its way too much now. He is smuthering me like crazy! He says he likes me so much (thats not new, everyone likes me so much haha)He was so reserved when we frst met and now that I opened him up, hes getting more and more attached. Dont get me wrong, I like him but I dont know for how long.... hes perfect aside that all the qualitie I want but I need space and time. How should I handle this?
How strange....Whats your secret? lol
I would say talk to him about it but thats tricky because you dont want to hurt his feelings or have a misunderstanding.
Just do what you need to do. If he likes you that much, I am sure he will stick around. Astrologically speaking, apparantly once they've made their mind up about someone, they are quite persistent and stick around.
sagittarius - Here's my opinion - but it's what I think for men in general not caps specifically - I am trying to get over my first and last cap guy and I am never touching their kind again. Don't tell him anything, just make sure you have other plans some of the time. Like if you really want to veg at home and do your nails one night, tell him you really want to veg and do your nails and suggest another time to meet. Say exactly what you want at that time. You probably feel he's smothering you because he wants to see you at a time when you really need to do grocery shopping, tell him I really need to do grocery shopping now, can I see you tomorrow and so on. Ask for specific and practical things rather than getting all philosophical and analytical 'coz then you may end up saying something you don't really mean.
Meanwhile - what's your secret! I know you were just being you, but whatever it is it's a good thing!
I think they are good friends but thats about it. I would feel suffocated in a relationship with one..my best friend is sagitarian and I know they like their freedom, fun and travel..I can't help but think this would be restricted somewhat with a cappie..I don't know, haven't been with one but I don't like their approach to life..They can be workaholics..which is great but their LIFE experience sucks big time..
missmorals I wish my ex-cap had suffocated me - then we'd still be together. He's a total workaholic - I don't mind if someone is a workaholic, but if you can't see or call me because of work then there's nothing I can do to maintain the relationship. By the way I am getting the impression from these boards that cap men are very different from cap women - I know no one could call me a workaholic by any stretch of the imagination and most people think I don't take anything seriously enough.
From my experience, the Cap. man will come on strong at first and be clingy and smothering. That's what mine did for about 3 weeks. I even joked w/ him that he was killing me and monopolizing my time. One week, he was showing up at my door and we saw each other 7 straight nights in a row. So, just beware... he's probably excited by the chase right now and trying to win you over, and once he's' got you, it will all do a comlete 180.
When I said suffocate I meant with his control issues etc..
I agree with capgirl and pathfinder but hesitated to write anything so as not to be accused of being a pessimistic downer to your new-found romance. My experience with ethese guys is similar, chase chase chase and then once they "get" you, you can hear your own echo in the void. Enjoy the chase but keep up your own life is my advice, because if he's like these other guys, he will do what everyone else on these boards write about. They do so love the hunt
Thanx everyone! He's giving me a little more space(not alot but more, haha) so its better. I guess its not so bad for now.
So the majority you believe he likes the hunt, and after he has you he becomes more reserved or distant. Is there any way to keep the "hunt" alive while in a relationship with them?
Don't get into a relationship with them! That's the only way... I mean really, if there's any form of "hunt" going on and he's still "hunting" you, you yourself will not feel that you're in a true, normal, reliable relationship. So, as long as you feel unsettled and uncertain about things (w/ him), then it's not a relationship.
I really speak of the commitment-phobic male... There's so much talk about the Capricorn man behaving this way but as others have agreed, it's really not all about sun-signs.
Fear not I am here! hehehehe, ok, here is my 2 cents (I have been in a serious relationship w a cappy for 1/2 year)
They are a bi-polarish sign, when they are up, they are up BUT watch out they like to mope just as much, this probably will drive a sag crazy. The worst part is that they (well mine anyway) doesn't like to be alone when he is being a grouch, he likes my company sooooo this can be suffocating and I am a Taurus. i just tell him so, honesty goes a long way, they might not answer back but they like to listen.
I am not saying he is going to run away or stop being interested but he might start acting kind of distant and weird, don't worry he is just thinking, then he might get a little depressed or mopey, again, don't worry they spring out of it!
Just run now, FierceSag! Get going, get a trucking! They're a royal a $ $ pain! Oh, but shyt, I am talking to a new one still... I tried to say "see ya" and still couldn't get away. Haven't even met the guy yet and he's got me so turned on, I'm fantasizing about our first encounter! See... TROUBLE! Nothing good can come of it! lol Find out if he has some Sag. in his chart... I am cap sun with Sag. moon, and I seem to attract and like Sag. men.
Well.... He said "I love you". I was quiet for like 10 minutes haha. So I will see.
What the he!!... how long have you known this guy?
I think they can be more open and sweet if they haven't been burned and jaded by love. This new Cop-Cap. seems rather innocent and inexperienced, subtly telling me his plans for the night so as not to disappoint me when he's not responding to my email. Cute. And he's consistently responsive, emailing on a daily basis.
LOL! CG ~ if I could only get you to stop kicking and screaming when I try to pull you loose from cappy men! smile
Fierce, cappy men love everybody, they are very undiscriminatory. Seriously! LOL! I think that's why Caps and Sags get along well. Sags are more free-spirited and non-possessive, though, which may be the only big difference between you two. You're both intellectual, witty, funny and brutally honest, but the cap has that serious, melanchology side. But you can bring sunshine in... He probably likes the way you pull him out of the doldrums and let him know that you are there for him.
PF~
PF~ I know, it's like I'm fixated on them now, for karmic retribution, bc. of the one that got away (primary cap.)! I am set on hog-tie'ing one and roping him into a relationship, even if I have to use his very handcuffs! LOL
I feel like I'm going to hurt that Pisces guy... He knows about Cop-Cap. and is already jokingly referring to him in a competitive sense.
CG ~ Then tell the Piscean the truth -- he hasn't played any games with you, give him that.
Thanks guys! I will just have to wait and see....
