Caps who rarely leave their homes--What the...?

Is it just me or do Caps rarely leave their homes?
Not to generalize all Caps but the ones I've read about here and the one I know, are couch-dependent.
I end up taking walks here and there if I feel I'll be home for the majority of the day but the Cap I know will come out once in a blue moon. I would honestly going insane, hallucinate, you name it.
Discuss.
My Ex Capricorn was a hermit. He was so boring.
i think i agree with that for the most part. im not a cap but i feel like ive been through it all. my cap was happy to be at home with just me (or one person at a time) but when lots of people were there he got really stressed out. he was also just as happy being out but he was a notorious people watcher so he wasnt always very social. definitely more in his element at home

The cap I know is kind of the same, the only difference is, is that when he hangs out with his friends, he's more off to the side and doesn't really put much effort into talking to them. He's just there.
"who cares ?"
GTFO and go somewhere else. KThanxBye
"You see this is why I think if you cut an aqua in half both sides will have a rainbow running through them...."
hmmm...I actally agree with this.
I admit, as a capricorn that I like to be at home most of the time.
However, I do go for daily walks and admire nature and the beach, but I am not a people's person, and do in fact enjoy my own company.
In rare occasions and probably twice or three times a month ( depends on mood and circumstances, and whether I have money or not lol ) I do like to get with friends, who by the time I contact them would have probably forgotten my name, but who cares, I am most at home, at home anyway.
I watch the same TV programs, like internetting and have a few online friends, have enough food in the fridge, cook once in a while and take my supplements.
Who needs agitation anyway?????
Well said, MorningDew! Totally agree.
Holy moses, morningdew, you just described the cap I knew.
These days have been extremely warm and sunny and he's only been out once. What the hell does he do all day.
But I can understand because I enjoy my own company as well and will admit to being somewhat of a loner. But spending all day at home for days on end is just madness!
yes, home is where the heart is for me. It's a caps serene place to regress from the stress of life and get away from people. We love family, thats where it is usually. We are domestic creatures naturally. So the inclination to stay home isn't a negative situation, theres a job there. Something to build, fix or work on. It's our world of order...on the other side of the coin. I love to just go out and drive on long roads sometimes and think. Always feel a need to be free and get out for a short trip daily still after dinner as the sun is low...head down to the beach, harbor or anywhere outdoors, even in the winter. It's always still fun to enjoy a great night out anywhere with friends on occasion too or get dressed up for a special dinner. I think when a cap spends too much time indoors in the winter without a project on hand, thats where the deep depression of saturn can pull our spirits down to depths that we need to be rescued from all the same.
I'm not cap and I enjoy my own company. I'll generally spend most of the day 9-7 studying, reading, relaxing and keeping to myself. Generally I'll call some friends around that time or hit the gym.
As a child I always thought that if I could entertain myself I would never be lonely. So that is why I don't really go out and "search" for friends. I like my company anyway, and I can always crack myself up with my humor. Not alone though usually in groups.
It is kind of a solitary sign
We have goat legs for land and a tail for water!
How could we be bored with ourselves!
"Yeah it's a case of "don't call us, we will call you". If cappy's like you then you will be in their life already because they will make an effort to get you in there. I feel a bit claustrophobic when someone pursues my friendship too much. Makes me want to run the other way. I reckon friendships should kind of click naturally without anyone making it happen. You meet people and you just click and that's it - like you have known each other all your life. If a cappy is pursuing your friendship then be flattered. There is something very special about you."
Holy moses. This reminds me of a comment the cap I know made.
We we're talking about how I don't own a cell phone because I hate phones and he told me that he doesn't have many numbers in his phone (around 8 or 9), while a lot of people I know and he knows have many. I don't know why but I never forgot that.
And he has continued to call me and left me a message on my machine for the first time a few days ago. I'm so confused. This has been going since January. He won't give up. It's so strange. It's June for the love of God!
"And although he'll BE with the other kids, he doesn't necessarily interact with them."
I also agree with this. I've seen it many times with the Cap I know. He's in a group of 3-4 and while the other guys are talking amongst themselves he's off to the side just looking around, just being there.
He's in the group but not exactly a part of what's going on, if that makes sense.
Yes, Caps LOVE home. I The one I know does not leave home, not unless he is paying bills or doing something necessary but not to socialize.
As a cappy, sometimes I just don't want to be bothered LOL. I get in those kind of moods Tongue I know that when I'm home, I have the option to be bothered verses when I'm out somewhere. It's not a selfish thing, it's just all about "me" time -- I need that in order to rejuv.
Being around being (associates, friends, family, etc.) lowers my energy levels.
My cap is a neighbor guy that dumped me. He stays indoors all day and night and rarely goes outside, unless his going to smoke a cigarette. He smokes in the backyard so I don't see him out there. He stays with his parents and he is 41 years old now. I rarely see him leaving except to go to work and come back home. He only makes necessary trips like driving to the grocery or whatever. But I noticed he spends hours sitting on the recliner. I think he takes naps during the day too because I know his parents do. That's very strange that he dumped me, for what? Maybe those type of men make good husbands at least they come home everyday on time after work and are always around. A woman can have children with a capricorn and they will be around to babysit all day. That's how I see it. But this cap was cold and heartless he is still sitting around waiting for better since he dumped me. I had a previous post about this Capricorn man. Maybe he's waiting for some dream girl to come to him. Well I guess he'll be waiting till he turns 50. I know I'm had enough, and I don't want to be dumped by him a third time.
I feel with you yolieoladyo52
It's very frustrating to try to understand the Capricorn's need for privacy and alone time(s). They are sensitive only when they are with you, but once away, they will only think of other things. Your best bet is to keep in touch often and try to be casual or pretend to be so. Once in love though, they cling to no end, but then again, marriage is another story.
They may be dragged into relationships from the more 'aggressive' signs/types , but they will eventually come back alone.
As a capricorn myself I had sworn off any kind of intimate relationship with another capricorn, because it won't go past that. A relationship. They will never take it to the next level, because they think that dating and getting married are two different things.
They are most likely going to get married suddenly, on a whim, on via another family member's suggestion.
I think they usually make good providers, and husbands as they tend to be altruistic and will do what it takes to have a comfortable home.
For the most part, the caps I know (female and male) are pretty chill but when they do go out, they are social butterflies.
one of my caps told me something really interesting the other day.
he said - you need attachment. i don't.
it fully explained everything & i wish i'd heard it a year ago. he really doesn't need to communicate on a deep level very often.
fortunately my current cap does seem to want attachment. so it must vary by person to some extent. however, my current cap remains distant to some extent as well. so the need for attachment must still be less than for other signs...

I agree I don't have to go out too much. I lavish my home with thing that makes me comfortable. I'm comfortable reading a book after a long hot bath or during a long hot bath and cooking diner then relaxing in bed and watching a movie. I get over stressed when I'm around too many people but I don't mind a small crowd of people that I am familiar with. I've never really thought about it but now that I'm thinking about it I feel that while I'm at work I work so hard that all I can think about is relaxing in my beautiful home and enjoying what I've worked hard to obtain. Easy to please...I have a Sag rising so sometimes I like to get out and do new things but if no one initiates or wants to join me then I usually just relax in the house. And I'm not bored by it.
"Yeah it's a case of "don't call us, we will call you". If cappy's like you then you will be in their life already because they will make an effort to get you in there."
This is so true... I couldn't have said it better! If we want you to be a part of our life you will know with out a doubt. And we are excelent friends and lovers. Once we decide we are with you and have your back you can always trust us and always know that we are there for you. We are loyal to our work and to those we love dearly.

- I agree with this also... sometimes i'll call someone and want to talk to that person and if they don't pick up I may leave a message (i hate leaving messages) and when that person returns my call...the moment will have passed and I no longer wish to be bothered so I'll look at my phone and hit ignore and send them to voice mail... i do this a lot actually now that I think about it...

*sigh* This makes sense. Once again, my cap is still wanting to talk to me after what I put him through.
But this cap would go DAYS without stepping out a single time.
I have a Cap ascendant, I also like to stay at home most of the time, sometimes for days.
i've been called a "vampire" and a "gremlin" by lovers because they thought i had a fear of light. i'm far from outdoorsy, i love my home. i too think it is a direct reflection of all the hard work that i do. i invite friends to come over, in small groups, for drinks and snacks or dinner. i love hosting parties, but always end up absorbing all the social activity instead of delving into it. it's what makes me happy. i like to be in control of the situation, so all the cooking and cleaning helps keeps things in order; i do not have this luxury when i go out to restaurants, bars, etc. I guess that bothers me subconsciously. i don't get bothered per say when i have to go out and when i do, i am prone to people watching, with the occasional chime in on a conversation if it's a really interesting topic.
I actually like that aspect of the Capricorn.
I am a Cancer and I am also a homebody my self. I would stay inside for days too, just relaxing, watching Tv or enjoying my company. So I think Cappys and I get along in that part Winking
