Just their nature. πŸ™‚ Accept it. The more detailed you are, the more you notice, the more they will trust you. I actually respect it. I love solving mysteries. He keeps me forever interested. And each month I'm handle a layer to unpeel. Delightful.

Same guy? Either he's up to no good or he's legit and getting sick of your shit.

Accuse me of something enough times and there's an above average chance I'll eventually do it just to spite you.

If you don't trust him and he doesn't trust you, you might as well rip the bandaid and get it over with.
I'm not doing anything to make him sick of my shit, we have only fought 3 times in our entire 10 month relationship. But I've noticed he's so secretive about things that he really should be open about and it makes me think he's up to no good...

By "sick of your shit" I mean being suspicious of him, if that wasn't entirely clear. You come off as extremely suspicious. Only time will tell if it's warranted. I'm only saying it can also be unwarranted but turn into a self fulfilling prophesy so be careful with that.

I found out that my hunch had a reason, he was in fact trying to pursue his 2nd baby mother. I am good on him, I broke up with him immediately after finding out, he hung up on me but no tears shed on both sides.

Sometimes we need to be patient to build trust. This being said, we build trust by exposing ourselves for who we are slowly with our partners, while they in turn to the same. It must be mutual but people go at different paces.

I don't know. I think they're paranoid, at the root!

It all comes down to realism, which results in self-preservation as a by-product.

Caps are well aware that no-one's perfect - everyone has flaws. As a result, there's a reluctance to reveal certain thoughts and feelings, until a Cap's sure that a person's flaws aren't too grave to cause some concern.

As I've said time and time again, people have no patience these days - everything has to be on demand. IMHO, at least 75% of the women who complain here about Cap men simply weren't patient, open-minded and/or understanding enough (with some of those even being downright delusional).

Yes, true, but then there's that dark side.

gotta keep that reputation intact πŸ˜‰

Quite the contrary...

What you're failing to realise is that I accept there are bad apples in every star sign, including Caps.

The question is, are you basing your conclusions on various male Caps you've personally known, or simply a break-up you still haven't quite recovered from?

At least 75% of the time, on dxp, it's usually the latter.

I have a healthy relationship with many capricorns in my life, mother, great friends and male acquaintances...

Any severed ties with Caps have been my doing and the recovery period is painless.

I think Caps are naturally pessimistic.

I know I am to a large degree.

However, the thing about being a pessimist is --- you are almost always right.
well this is somewhat true, if you wait long enough, you might be right 50 % of the time with hindsight... but what about the other 50%

Nope.

Being a pessimist will land you at an accuracy rate above 75% without hindsight.

With the benefit of hindsight, that number climbs to around 93.8%

Prior to my previous post, I never asked you anything - I merely shed some light on something you're obviously misguided about.

You're the one who made this into a discussion, before doing a u-turn and harking on about how you think Caps are cool...

So?


that was your question, I responded and you kept responding the me lol

I really don't understand your hostility, which is completely unnecessary...

You said something on the Cap board and I, naturally, attempted to enlighten you on your point - it wasn't a question. Just because I challenged a couple of your short-sighted posts doesn't mean that I should automatically be treated as some sort of villain.

But, then again, this is typical Aqua passive-aggressive behaviour, when either a raw nerve has been touched or they find themselves desperately grasping at straws.

Obviously, you don't want to learn anything new about Caps, which makes me wonder why you're even in this thread...

you're the one that is hostile, when I said paranoid, it wasn't directed specifically at you and I am sorry I hit a nerve

"So?" wasn't a question - it was a remark...

a question mark :: means question

an exclamation mark would have been more appropriate then if you didn't want an answer

and again, since you don't understand the rules of a forum, anyone can answer and comment on posts just as you are doing on mine

which you are welcome to
