I thought I'd start a new thread... I am truly interested in hearing from Wheretomylady and any others w/ a longterm "relationship" w/ the Cap. male. How have you been able to hang in there and figure out whether he's pulling away bc. he's scared, or bc. he's not all that interested??!

The lack of responsiveness of my Cap. is ridiculous. He pursued me when we met... He claims to be strongly attracted to me... He hasn't had "enough" of me to be bored, or unchallenged... And he reappears and hasn't just walked away, like most men who aren't interested. (I don't give it up to him, so I don't know why he'd be stringing me...) It is the most BIZARRE behavior and I am seeing no reason to believe that he gives a shyt about me or thinks about me!

I've been thru that Capgirl. First of all if they werent interested they wouldnt stick around, contact u, see u, etc. I had the hardest time figuring him out also and I thought he just wasnt that into me, but in all reality he was just scared. All it takes is some patience and feel free to open up and ask him. They seem to be the type of people whom you'd be scared to ask these things to, but they really like u to ask them.

Boy I think I told you two that I grew about 20 new grey hairs the first 2 months we were together...he would come over, have sex, talk and hold me, then take off without talking to me for days....this went on and on...then something clicked and he decided to trust me, now he tells me everything, stays for breakfast, goes out with me and my friends, hugs and kisses me in public! wow, it was worth the wait...BUT as for long term I am fearful, I try to remain optimistic that things will work out, 5 months and all is well is not the same as 2 years and all is well....

CapGirl:

Being a Capricorn male, i can speak from experience with dealth with Capricorn women i've think that you bore him. Its bad enough the his not so out-going, but to have a chick thats not too out-going is disastrous. Ask him "wouldn't you like it if we go out to(fill in the blank)?" or say "Is there a movie that you would like to go?".

But don't think that you doesn't like you, because he do. He has to feel comfortable and trust you not to hurt his ego in order for your relationship to work.

Riffraff-- I totally agree or see the point of your last sentence. But "bore him"— You hurt my feelings! 😉 I am far from boring! I challenge and banter back and forth w/ him, with alot of wittiness... I could see what you're saying as far as I'm shy and reserved, and neither of us are taking the initiative to get together/ ask the other to do something.

But thanks for that last piece of information... That totally has been a problem between us.
