awol cappy turns up

I have a male capricorn friend who contacted me tonight after roughly 3 1/2 months of disappearing on me. He is acting like nothing unusual happened. He responded to my two month old e-mail with "of course I'm alive what kind of question is that? You wanna go to the convention this spring?"

Is this behaviour normal with them?

yes it's normal....they forget about people easily because they tend to be wrapped up in there darkside, school, work, family, friends....then they reappear only to disappear again.

We have been friends for about nine years and this is the first time he has ever pulled a disappearing act.

let it be his last....SC gave some really good advice.....address it or he will assume due to you going along with it that's it's okay to treat you like a friendly doormat he can come in and wipe his feet on when he gets ready as IF you don't have a life of your own, I'm sure you do have a life, I mean who ask a woman out after several months of no contact, the only women I know that will go on a date like that is desperate for male attention, that's if it even bothers you and if it doesn't bother you now it will bother you later on. Calmly address it without accusing him of being wrong but just let him know you don't take friendships/men seriously when they come in and out of your life, you can say it exactly like that but whatever you do nip it in the ass now or it will escalate.

IMO don't take it easy, capricorn are okay dealing with challenging women, women that aren't doormats, let him know how it makes you feel, he will appreciate you for speaking up and he will gain respect and trust. We all have problems in life but if we value the people in our lives we will have enough respect not to disappear like that.

We aren't dating, we're just friends.
I am busy with school so I haven't much time to wonder where he went, but I was worried something might have happened to him. I will let him know that I didn't appreciate him disappearing like that.

I found out what happened. He was angry at me for something that took place last summer.

immature...

Oh for Christ's sake!! Tell that big baby Mr. Poopypants to suck it up and get over it already!! At least now I know what to expect.

What does that mean, seraph??

Elusive, I know this thread is old but I just felt compelled to comment on it because of the absuridity of the Cap behavior the OP described. Ignoring a friend for 3 months for some "offense" she supposedly committed "last summer" is just babyish and immature. Cap or not, I hope she told her friend to grow the Hell up when he came back around.

Mermaid is resusrecting every old cap bye bye thread she can find. She's obsessed.

*sigh*
