Capricorn Venus - Can you relate to this?

This topic was created in the Capricorn forum by cancerous on Monday, April 29, 2013 and has 5 replies.
I read this from another forum, and I am wondering how many Venus in Caps can relate to this:
"When they're interested, they will test the waters with you first with some innocuous comment, see if you'll bite. Once you do, they will be circumspect and will put you through a series of "interviews" and tests. They have high standards and have a definite checklist of criteria set in mind. Once you meet every single one of the requirements, they will treat you very well. HOWEVER. They're hypergamous. Meaning, they'll stay with you until someone "better" (whatever this means in their little book of criteria) comes along. Or if he loses his job or goes down a few notches in social status, he will no longer feel worthy of you, so he may behave like a jerk so that you'll dump him like he deserves."
I found this interesting because before I read this, I knew someone with venus in this sign as well, and another hypothesized him as someone who seemed like he would stay with someone until someone "better" came along eventually.
What do you guys think? Any truth to this?Laughing ..

True for me. Sun/Mercury/Venus in Cap

I do think I treat someone well from the get go, regardless of how I feel about them. I am always polite and respectful. I can not, however, fake it if I do not like you. At least not for long.

True for me unless I have made a commitment. Once I make a commitment, I will do whatever I can to work things out with someone. I just have to decide the person is worth working on things with. If there is no commitment, if the guy is wishy-washy and there is no title or definition, then I will play with them until someone better comes along, absolutely, yes.
If I have made a commitment, there will be no one else. I will literally stop noticing other people, will not even look at them. (though I do have a Scorpio moon so maybe that is why)

My boyfriend also has the same aspects as you (except he is Cap/Aqua sun cusp, but like that makes too much of a difference :p ...maybe)

So, if you are in a committed relationship and pretty serious about it (regardless of however long or short it may be), if someone does happen to come along and happens to be well endowed financially or have whatever things your S.O may lack, would you feel more inclined to walk away to this next best thing, or ignore it and continue on with the relationship?(not saying this is true for me, but wondering in a given situation)

@cancerous: If I am in a committed relationship, I cease to look at others and/or compare them to my s/o. At that point, I have picked him, and he may be XYZ-insert adjective here- but he is MY XYZ-insertadjectivehere-. All others are ignored at that point, unless something seriously bad happens, I am in for the long haul.
I was like that all through my marriage. 13 year relationship.
I feel that way now- been with my bf 8 1/2 months, he just moved in, and unless he decides to walk or something bad happens, we will be together forever. I no longer talk to or think about other men and I have not for at least the past 6 months. I just get total tunnel vision, I commit 100% . I read somewhere that Capricorn people are picky, so once they find someone they actually love, they are very eager to make it stick, and I would say that is the case for me. Between my divorce and this boyfriend, I only had 2 exclusive relationships, and neither lasted more than 3 months. Dated around the rest of the time.

It's half right. I have venus in cap, and I do give 'interviews', if you will. That's because there's only one person for this job and it must be handled correctly. I really dont have much room for loads of errors and fuck ups. When I have chosen a candidate, then I will be good to them and see how it goes. But I dont believe in abandoning a person for someone 'better'. What is better? There is no such thing because we all have different points in our lives where one minute we are up, the next we are down. Everything is periodical to me. If the person has truly won my heart, I will go nowhere. Once I've chosen, I stand by my choice through thick and thin, unless given a good reason not to.

these comments are great and are more aligned with the way i am in a relationship. i commit through thick and thin. i have eyes for no other. what is better for me is growing, failing, getting back up, leaning on, supporting, learning, and coming of age and life together. i'll be there for him when he's at his worst, just like he should be there for me when i'm at my worst.
