Are there any or do you know of any..

...successful Cancer & Capricorn relationships? or Are/have you been in one? How is/was it like?

You're right, but I'm just curious 🙂

That's funny... (not that this relates to the kind of relationship this post is referring to, but) my mom is a cap...
I LOVE THE HELL OUT OF HER!!! I guess that's (by default) because I'm her son, and she's my mommy (your stereotypical cancerian "momma's boy").

But with opposites in the zodiac (as far as intimate relations are concerned), I think either you both agree to learn from each other or you both decide to bicker over differences until it all falls apart.

well for a start..

the opposites could bring you two together or it will not going to be any success..
as for a note.. dont try to read your caps mind for you will not know what's on his mind.. that i could be sure of and if things work well with the two of you..the differences could simply be a blessing in disguise as you complete each other..but that's what i could think of..oh and cap guy really into work and work and work all the time!

I posted this on the Cap board too........

Here's something I googled:

Cancer Woman and Capricorn Man

"There's always something slightly helpless and appealing in the Cancerian female, and the Capricorn man senses it sooner than most. What this woman needs is a strong man to lean on, someone who can smooth away all her worries and calm all her fears ? who provides her with a shoulder to cry on now and then. But she's not quite as helpless as she seems. The Moon Maid would prefer to lead by guiding her man's destiny gently, unobtrusively, in the background?if she's in love. When she is not in love, a Cancer gal can be mighty ambitious in her career, and will do just about anything to get to the top of the heap.


Every Cancerian woman is secretly looking for a good provider, and this the Capricorn man certainly is. He is always ambitious (as much so as she is) and usually successful. In fact, he's often the epitome of everything she would like to be, but cannot ? for she is too vulnerable. Conversely, she represents to the Goat all the qualities he privately would love to call his own, but cannot ? for he is not vulnerable enough. Therefore, almost from the moment these two meet, there is an unmistakable appreciation of one another, which is one of the strongest foundations for love.

Next to Pisces(who is also a perfect soulmate for Capricorn), no other woman so secretly enjoys being controlled and conquered by the male she adores. And if any man can be domineering, tender, and affectionate all at once, it's this one. So it all works out in a favorable manner for both of them, usually.

This relationship has the blessings from the stars, which means, if both of them really loves each other, then despite those periodic tensions and troubles (which won't be serious), these two will have a happy conjugal life"

I had a brief encounter with a Capricorn boy. It ended only because I became serious with my Scorpio. Actually, I take that back. It never really ended. There is still an attraction. What I liked most about this boy is the way he expressed affection in private. Yes, private. A very private person! When I was talking, he would caress my face and just stare - but never discussed his feelings. Never said anything emotional at all. That was hard for me to accept. I could see potential with this pairing. He told me I would make a great wife. Hee. Even though we were just "messing" around, there was a seriousness to the relationship. He confided secrets that he had never shared with anyone. Kind of like he let his guard down and opened up emotionally as best as he could. A very tiny bit. Ironically, he is tall and has a bigger frame. I loved that about him. I felt very protected in his cool, calm manner and build. Sometimes I felt like I didn't get enough attention ... he didn't know I needed it. Very laid back which is the opposite of me. All in all, we couldn't keep our hands off each other and there was definitely a strong attraction, not lust. A logical thinker could benefit someone like me who operates on emotion.

"And if any man can be domineering, tender, and affectionate all at once, it's this one." So true. My thoughts exactly. And another thing, big on family and kids!

My ex-gf was a Capricorn and I have to say that I learned a great deal from her. She's a very proud person -- not egotistical or arrogant, but just very proud of everything she is and has to offer.

Pride was such a HUGE thing for her. I can't criticize her or tell her what to do -- because if I do, it hurts her pride. So this really is a case of "I accept her the way she is" or else we'll end up hurting each other over and over again.

I realize that in the end, she and I are just too different. She's great in her own way but she's not a person who would be easy to change or even want to change. She's proud -- she'll work hard and be faithful and loyal to you once she's fully committed to you. But her being fully committed will require quite a bit of time and a lot of you having to prove to her over and over again that you're worthy of her trust.

She's stubborn and proud but an extremely hard worker and a person who could endure more than anyone I've ever met. I admire a lot of qualities about her but a relationship isn't just about admiration...it's also about compatibility. and I just didn't feel like we were compatible with each other.

She didn't communicate with me very well. A lot of times, she'd be very quiet and completely hide her emotions and feelings away. She always took a lot of time to decide anything -- even ordering something at a restaurant, it takes her a very very long time. Why? Because she was analyzing what the "best value" was on the menu...she was thinking "what could I order that cost the least amount and will give me most satisfaction?". Capricorns are just very analytical, Cancers are more emotional. They're just opposites in so many different ways.

I truly believe that in order for this relationship to work, Capricorns have to really open themselves up and communicate to a level that makes them feel uneasy. They need to go out of their ways to show and reassure the Cancer that they are loved. Unfortunately, Capricorns by nature are not that expressive. That's going to be a big problem.

Cancers, on the other hand, need to temper their emotions and their mood swings. They need to stop letting little things bother them and look at the big picture -- Capricorns are plenty of admirable qualities. Unfortunately, the kinds of things that Cancers tend to admire in a person are not typically the things that Capricorns are good at displaying.

For example, Capricorns are prideful, ambitious, diligent, serious, analytical and never gives up...they'll fight to the end for something they want and will work hard at it as long as it takes.

These are highly admirable qualities but Cancers are not going to appreciate them as much as they should. Cancers admire kindness, empathy, people who nurture others and are not nearly as serious about everything as the Capricorns are.

Capricorns need to be admired, Cancer's won't admire them for those qualities they have. But I assure you -- Cancer's can learn quite a bit from a Capricorn and vice versa.

In any case, my relationship didn't work out but I sure learned a lot. We are friends to this day and I think that's the best way to keep it between these two signs...
