I dont want to judge him but i wonder why such a intelligent man who works so hard and earns a lot of money still thinks it isnt enough because he wants to be like his boss.

His boss has chicks everywhere but lives alone. Has lots of cars. Has a very very expensive watch he bought recently.

I recognised a pattern of behaviour where the cap man wants to have the power and all the benefits like his boss. But , my opinion, it is not doable, not realistic, its over his reach. He works from early in the morning till late in the evening, comes home and heads to bed. He gives up everything elss in his life to have the life of his boss. He is sick due to malnutrition, overworking but still continues to work hard. So dumbs up for consistancy in that part.

He recently bough a " wish" watch , very cheap, because it looks like the watch of his boss . His watch costs 30 dollars and the watch of his boss costs 27000 dollars. That was very important to him.

I am happy for him that this makes him happy , but all the while i keep saying to myself " why immitate somebody?" " You are magnificent like you are". Is it behaviour because he doesnt know who he is? Is it his libra moon? Or his first house neptune?

I hope he dont get in any trouble because because of over spending.... Any thoughts about this ? I want the best for him and arent jealous, just worried...

You should stop trying to control him. Work is very important to him and you should support him. Hes not dumb with his money. He bought a $ 30 watch. So what if it looks like his bosses?? We all get ideas of style from other people and imitate them. It’s really not a big deal.

The other stuff you mentioned- having lots of chicks and cars. You didn’t mention this guy having that. And even so- its every guy’s dream. Yes, dream. Not usually a reality. Not a big deal.

Its a friend. I have nothing to do with him. Just seeing things from a distance, so no controling here. He has lots of cars and just got a loan from the bank to get another one. Chicks? He is single but is a bit shy to approche them. If you see him he is a macho kind of guy , but shy when it comes to approching women.

Capricorn men also like to immitating Scorpio men or other Alpha males by dating the "Made in China" version of Air sign woman, Fire sign woman.


He is immitating he sag sun boss. The cap man is a scorpio rising. He wants to be a Alpha man thats for sure. He looks very macho, cool and collective but thats on the sufface. Inside he is unsure of himself, a bit shy.

The cap man is a sag sun in vedic. So maybe thats it.

I just though it all so superficial but that is judging him, and i cant do that.

I dont say anything to him about my thoughts in person, and i am happy when he is happy. Just worry that he wants to grab things out of his reach. He overspend in the past and had huge debts because of his behaviour. Its like sometimes he lives in another world, in fantasyland. I dont want to see him in trouble.....again.

You’re worrying too much. Let the man live.

If he was shopping everyday and blowing money and hoarding shit then that would be a problem. Admiring the success of someone else is healthy.. if that’s what inspires him, let it be. As his friend, try being more supportive and less judgmental. I understand that’s not your vision of success, but it’s not about you.


true, you got a point

he needs to learn women. most (nearly all) men's self worth, deep down, is incredibly tied to their success w.women. both at a peer level and a perception (by the opposite sex) level. a man could be a goddamn billionaire and still be unsatisfied w himself if he's still this awkward teenager around chicks.

in a way he is smart for imitating the one who is, in his mind, most successful. I have done the same thing over the years and if applied correctly, it really works.

he should perhaps start reading about game, and as a cap maybe he would be interested, then he could cultivate his own style and through the process he'd naturally gravitate into his own style and self-mode, separate from his boss.

His self worth..... such a intellectual, creative man, but he has very low self worth. Thx for your look at this.

Sounds cringe worthy, but Caps can be status whores. His boss exudes his idea of success and he wants to emulate that. You can't save someone from themself, he has to find his own way. Maybe you two aren't compatible friends.

Yes, status is important to him, very! And no i cant save him from himself. A friend is a friend, compatible or not. I do give him support because i want him to be happy. Just wanted the vue on this from other capricorns so i can understand him better and maybe expand my vue on where he is going because i worry.

What's you sign? You are a good friend to worry for him. He is lucky. But he himself needs to figure out whether he wants to go for superficial things or things of real value. You can't help by worrying about him.


i am a cancer sun, scorp moon, sag rising. He knows i am there for him. I dont interfere in his life or in his decisions. It natural for me to worry i think ( virgo 10 th house)

my scorp moon hates superficial things, we are total opposites as far as status/material wealth.

Thats why i ask my question here and not to him. I dont want him to think he is making wrong choises, he is just being himself i suppose.
