I'm a Taurus woman. My first time meeting this Capricorn man was at the gym after chatting online for a few days. We talked for hours, and ended up grabbing a meal because the sun was coming up. We connected so well that we decided to meet a gain that same day after going home to shower. We went to the movies about 2-3 hours later and then talked that whole day in the parking lot until it was time for him to go to work that night.

He would call me while he was at work, and text all the time. We met up a few more times, and then he skipped work one night so that we could stay in each others presence longer. While we were at his place he asked me if I had "fallen" for him. To which I replied that I don't know what that means, and asked him what he meant. I asked if he had fallen for me and he gave the same reply that I gave stating that he didn't know exactly what he meant by his question. He then rephrased the question and asked if I could see myself with him to which I said yes, and he said the same. We talked about past relationships, and work related stuff (we both were going to be very busy in the near future). He also told me some problems that he was having with his family, and the burden that they put on him since he's the oldest. After that day he called/text a few times but not as much as usual.

The next week we were supposed to meet up, and he called saying that we could meet up after his game and that he would call me when it was over. I fell asleep and woke up around midnight, and hadn't heard from him. I sent him a "?" in a text, and didn't hear anything from him until about 4 days later. He texted me saying he was sorry and he wanted to text me earlier, but was embarrassed for the rest of the weekend. I told him that I wasn't mad, but I wish he would have handled it differently and then we went on to talk like nothing was wrong. I went to his house that day because he was off work and we spent the night together again. He called while at work for the next couple of days, but then disappeared yet again. This time he was MIA for almost a week, and he texted me a sad face on his birthday. I asked him what the face was for and he said that work and the academy was kicking his ass. I guess that was his excuse for being distant, but I didn't say anything about his absence or press the issue. I texted him later that day asking what he was doing and he didn't respond but I saw him online on facebook.

I don't want to chase him, and we aren

It seems like the end was cut off so here goes....

I don't want to chase him, and we aren't in a relationship so I don't know how to bring it up without seeming clingy. I would like to get to know him well enough to see if it can evolve into something longterm, but the waiting is getting on my nerves. I feel like if you have time to get online then you can send a quick text saying "hey I'm no longer interested, or I'm busy, or I don't feel like talking"...something. I really like him, but I can't help but think that if he really liked me then he would be more consistent in his communication. I'm not really familiar with capricorn men and don't know how to move forward or if I'm wasting my time. What do you guys think?

Dang, got cut off.

So, he doesn't follow through with calling you after his game like he said he would. He doesn't respond to you for four days. Yet you reward him for his bad behavior by spending the night with him?

Careful there, he will think you have know boundaries. If you don't respect yourself, why should he? Should have made him work a little harder for it. He expected to be called out on his crap and he expected more resistence from you. Now, he will continue to treat you this way. Caps will run all over someone if they let us.

We hung out again. I guess he just went to sleep the last time I texted him because he called me when he got to work and then we spent the day together once he got off. I addressed the issue the first time (in which he replied that I was right and said he had been embarassed) but don't want to over-react or beat a dead horse. I know he's busy because he works the night shift and then goes to class for 8 hours after working all night. I fully respect myself, and the only reason I agreed to meet was because I take night classes and teach during the day so I knew once it gets well into the semester I will have less time to spend with him. He is a gentleman when we are together, I just don't know how to bring up certain topics. I don't show emotion or talk about my feelings very well, and would hate to allow myself to have feelings for someone who isn't going to reciprocate them...

I guess my question is how do I talk to him/learn about his intentions without scaring him off?

His actions will show you his intentions.

Don't ask a guy, where are we? what is this? what are your intentions? Just tell him what you want and then see what he says back. The way he responds and his actions afterward will let you know.

If he withdraws, just wait and see, let him withdraw and give him space to figure it out.
If he acts flaky, let him go.
If he agrees with what you want, not only will he tell you, his actions will show it.

I got to agree with this! We capricorns do love someone who can handle us and someone to let us handle them! Lol

As a Taurus that's the approach that usually works with me as well...An Aqua man scared me off just before meeting the Cap due to him moving too fast. Something was just off about him...anywho I'm not in a rush to get into a relationship, but I would like to know more about him and what he's thinking. I probably don't like the disappearing thing because I'm usually the one that does it. I guess I've learned to be more considerate now that I see how it feels. I wont rush it...School is getting intense and testing is coming up so I'm just gonna put all of my energy into the kiddos and let him take the time that he needs...
