We Capricvorns are mean because 'Promise/s are Promise/s' and if you have made a Promise/s to a Capricorn then you had better keep to it because us Capricorns value Promise/s and people who keep there Promise/s to us. That goes with everyone. If you dont keep you Promise/s then Capricorns may get mean with everyone.

We dont have tolerance for much, but i vote caps some of the nicest people.

Thank you! And yes we are. 😉 We don't fall for the typical BS and if we can see or sense that, we will cut you off. We are not mean just to be mean to people. Just don't be fake and we take you for your word; your word is your bond with us. Once you have us as friends; we are friends for life.

We have zero tolerance for bullshit.
We call it like we see it.
If you ask us our opinion we will give you the harsh truth. Otherwise why did you ask?

Exactly! I ask people all of the time "do you want me to tell you the truth or do you want me to sugar coat it?" Usually they ask for the truth.

This ^^^

A perfect example is this thread (no tolerance for bullshit, and this one qualifies).

Hi TrueCap! You're right! I meant to put this below your statement:

Yeh just saying to whoever made a promise to me either stay with it or get fucked. If that is mean then that is how you perceive it to be not how it actually is. Only I just dont remember what the promise was about, lol. If you do remember then plz jog my mem for me so I can remember what it is about and then yeh we have to get on with it or not.

Cappies are just blunt in a realistic way. I don't think they are trying to be mean, but it could sound that way to more sensitive signs.

For example, it was snowing heavily and my car was covered. My Cap insisted that he help me brush off the snow from my windshield and windows. I went to pitch in and he said "no it's ok, you'll just slow me down".

Yeh I have a cap who is determined to destroy me to make him look better coz I dont want to talk to him or 'open' up to him. Whats it to him or to anyone else what I do also could be the male who read me diaries and denys it oh so much just like everything else he does to me. I dont want to talk to him or have anything to do with him unless it work but we dont work together at all so I dont know what he is going on about. Strange kid that one is.

I dont understand what he is trying to get out of trying to 'destroy' me as you cant destroy whats good and not only that it'll back fire on him in the end coz I said it would. Hes evil anyway so maybe is trying to be good or look good in my eyes so he can get away with shit, barking up the wrong tree dog, go find someone else who is good to do that to coz I am good no more I am wicked so got out of evils fucked ways for once in my life thank god for that really and I do wheen I think about it.

I am free which is more than he will ever be and for him to understand this and get on with harassing someone other than me which would be easy coz there are plenty other good chickybabes around to fuck with. Its time he and all else understand that it time I got on with doing my work and to lets jsut get on with it. Makes it easier for you all in the long run to understand this, believe you me.

If I instantly offend or hurt people, even if they asked me first, then they focus on that feeling and don't hear what I say and in worst case they turn bat crazy on me. Then there are those who just can't take a polite hint and just seem to push for a harsh snap.

Sometimes I'm very apologetic about being too harsh with someone because that's how I perceive myself but then they're strangely grateful and found me very helpful. Well, that's a relief.

I really prefer to keep things polite and smooth. Unfortunately for me, it seems like everyone else around me craves drama and high waves.😢

While typing this I just scrolled through some of the other posts and now I think this is about something specific and not really a general question?! >>> mega confused!

I think your approach is very considerate and respectful of people's feelings. I'm kind of this way too because I really don't want to hurt someone. They appreciate the honesty and recognize you're trying not to hurt them. They get a chance to see how kind and caring you are and probably know you wouldn't tell them hurtful things to be mean, that you tell them because they really wanted to know.

All this talk of tiptoeing around people's feelings........sigh. A neccessary evil I suppose.

How do I see it phrased around here? "Feelings? Ain't nobody got time for that."

If you are pissed at me, tell me you are pissed at me. If you hate me, tell me you hate me. IF you think I am the sexiest SOB on earth, yeah, tell me that too.

To hell with subtleties.

Sounds like how it really is for most of us. A lot of people used to call me mean back in high school. But I never really cared for it.
