so I met a Capricorn. Surprise...Surprise...we got along great. He started to make plans for next month with me. We saw each other and he called/texted message everyday like twice a day. So what happened this week? No text...no calls....no Cappy in sight? He sent me a text that wasn't really funny, so I texted him..."Funny but not a bright idea." Was that it? I scared him off because I didn't think the joke was too bright? When it is going to be right?
If that's all you did, it seems like a pretty silly reason for him to back away from someone he likes. Pretty immature. That said, I've done that lots of times. 🙂 I'm a very self-conscious person, and I'm always aware of the kind of impression I might be making. I also am very, very, very, sensitive and have a lot of pride. If someone says something unflattering about me, my thoughts, whatever, I pretty much want them dead. 😛 When it comes from someone I have feelings for, I just freeze them out, withdraw and sort myself out.
I think most Capricorns are a weird mix of innate confidence and total insecurity. We don't like criticism of any kind because we beat ourselves up enough already. I suspect your guy feels foolish, and that you might have lowered your opinion of him over something as trivial as a bad joke. Don't underestimate the power of Capricorn sensitivity, pride and insecurity. Don't worry, though. We get better as things progress. Just in the beginning, we're a ball of nerves overthinking everything.
So what can I do to redeem myself from that eposide. I am like a virgo sometimes...just critical. I also feel that its a little immature to flat out block me out because I made that statement. I think I'm worth a second chance, and now that I know how sensitive he is (I'll be more aware to keep things to myself). If I wasn't attracted to him, I would have dropped him cold. Then again, is that what he did to. Dropped me cold? So give me advice on how to stay friends now 🙂(um...I don't want to be friends).
I do miss him 😢 But it has been a week...and I haven't heard from him. I think its best to retreat to road of solitude once again. I don't look back regretting what I said...I didn't mean to hurt his ego. Lesson learned...I may have to swallow my words in the future. Do you caps give second chances...or if you made up your mind...is that it?
i have to agree...my cap withdrew from me...at first i thought it was me....but its him...he has some inner issues going on that I cant figure out myself. He told me to bare with him and in the end, it will be worth it. For some reason, i believe it. Can I ask a question about caps?
Well, people are more than an astrological sign, but speaking astrologically, no, Capricorns aren't the type to say "I love you" and not mean it. We're supposed to be very straight-forward and honest people. We say what we mean, and mean what we say, or we say nothing at all. If a Capricorn doesn't care about you, you'll know it. How? We'll just end it. We take emotions and love very seriously, hence why we're not so free and open.
It's probably nothing you did - see Caps (speaking from my own personal experiances - as I have met a Taurus and still am wary about making the next move) can be a little wary about making commitments - mainly because we're so fond of our own independence - wondering if this person is going to change our lives or control how we are in life mainly - restrict us from doing things we find ourselves normally free to do - and Tauruses being known to be possessive - he might feel a lil suffocated in the relationship already? I mean I'm sure you have all the best intentions in the relationship to keep it a happy one and give him the space he needs but esp. if this Cap was in a relationship previously where this may have been an issue to it not working out (as this is what happened in my previous relationship with a Leo) it just might take awhile for him to come around - but I assure you that if you give him the time and space to allow him to have the independence he probably enjoys having - he'll surely realize that you don't mean to manipulate or control his life and that things will workout between you both where he can balance his own personal life style with this newfound relationship he may have with you (which ultimately has endless potential as you both probably enjoy having your own freedom anyways aside from being together - and that in turn will build a very special trust between you both as well - which is very important to both a Cap and Taurus as well - it's the foundation to building this potentially great relationship - all he probably just needs is time alone to think about all these factors and the pros and cons - though a lil assurance might help him make his decision quicker! 😛)
It's usually Capricorns that I'm with, who say they've said something when nothing was said. I get the " I just said that," or the "I all ready told you that." In reality, I never heard a thing. Yes, I said I, but I have no hearing problems, was paying attention, was not talking a lot, and caught him in the act! haha! So, he (the capricorn) must not have said what he thought he said. This just happened to me yesterday, but I've noticed it from the past. My sister and boyfriend do this all the time. Guess what signs they have ? Anyone want to add to this?
I think the reason why us Caps are so hard to love (esp. the men) is that mainly cause we're so simple - easygoing - don't really need much to be satisfied in a relationship - usually workaholics - enjoy our isolation from time to time to reflect on life and the relationship were in - and usually the women we're with seem to demand so much more - they want romance and the flowers and the candlelit dinners and the walks on the beach and everything else they fantasize in their minds that give them the feeling of being swept off their feet - not that there isn't anything wrong with that - but when a woman starts expecting those things from a Cap and/or becoming emotionally damaged by those things not happening in the relationship (which isn't gonna help in them getting those things to happen naturally anytime soon by doing that anyways) but that's (to me) where a relationship with a Cap starts to downfall - 'he didn't call me' or 'he went away and I don't know where he is' - Caps are independent people - sometimes stubbornly independent - and believe me when I say that if you give your Cap room to breathe - they will come back and love you all the more - you have to give us space for us to truly appreciate you - and don't nag us with 'where have you been?' or thinking we're cheating on you cause believe me when I say we have a hard enough time trying to hold down one relationship and players we are not I assure you - but we are known to be workaholics and most likely have a physical job we work at and in turn - get tired easily - so being easy on us after work is always nice too - not 'you don't spend enough time with me!' (Believe me - that'll get you nowhere but only bring more stress into our lives cause as we're trying to make things work here we now feel that we have to work even harder to make the ones we care about or love happy as well!) I mean Caps are so easy to love - all you have to do is be patient - if you are unhappy about something - just let us know - no holds barred - as if you would like to be asked the same question or concern yourself by someone in your shoes - do unto others as you'd have them do unto you - nobody likes a short temper - esp. a Cap - just be realistic - that's all it'll take for the most part - this is probably why Caps end up being alone in life cause they just end up giving up on finding anyone cause most anyone they seem to find themselves associating themselves with ends up getting on their case about something.

I want to know why capricorns are considered to be ruthless. why are they very controlling and authoritative? what , do you guys have ego problems or what?

Sometimes I feel like my mind can EXPLODE.. I sometimes worry too much and mostly about things I can't help.. does anyone else suffer from Anxiety and depression sometimes.. right now I just feel crazy.. mostly a hypochondriac lol
There is a rumor that Capricorns are the best lovers of the zodiac when they feel stable and secure and can see the long term purpose of the union they are in. The focused determination of Saturn as a guiding light brings the same unequaled force into the
