Capricorn and



Posted by Capri-sunMakes sense! I do the same thing when I don't like a guy and he likes me.
Hmm...I flirt easily when I'm interested. More so in person than over phone/text. I think mine is due more to my libra moon.
If I know someone is interested and he feeling isn't mutual, I try not to flirt so I don't lead them on.
If you're looking for something more specific let me know.

Posted by ladylibra21What do you mean? Can you give me an example?
I say they do it playfully

Posted by KoniuchaaOk so then what about Venus in Aquarius?
This is going to be more Venus and moon, imo.
I have Venus conjunct Saturn and rarely flirt. I more tell you I like you then show with actions.

Posted by UndauntedSoul88How about flirting when they don't like you?
Most Caps are busy people. If we MAKE time to call, text, or hangout...that's us trying to demonstrate we like you.
I tend to be more playful around the person I like. Meaning, I'll joke around more.
If I like him, but don't really know him too personally, my eyes do the talking, as they'll focus on him and only him.
Now, when a Cap male has liked me, I've caught them staring at me when they think I'm not taking notice of it. Cap men, no matter how confident they seem, tend to get a little nervous when they like someone genuinely. Because it doesn't happen often. They won't get nervous with someone they just want to have sex with.
They'll try to mask the nervousness with friendliness and a sense of humour. Which may put out the vibe that they see you more as a friend...when in fact, you're getting much closer to their heart.

Posted by KoniuchaaThe guy I'm referring to isn't overly flirty, but he has surprised me with his words. You're spot on about freedom!Posted by pinkbird03That is also not a very flirty Venus. I'm not too familiar with that one, but I would imagine they prefer freedom in a relationship and someone quite independent.Posted by KoniuchaaOk so then what about Venus in Aquarius?

Posted by Capri-sunI've been keeping my distance trying to move on. It's been like 10 days and before that we were talking way too much so I created space for myself. Well I caved and sent him a picture of artwork that I bought. (He's into that stuff) Told him the customized frame was almost $ 300. Had a brief conversation about it. Then I sent him a new picture of me. Usually he just says nice or something simple. This time he said, "frame it 🙂". I said, "a $ 300 picture of me? I can't think of anyone who would want that! Lol" Then he says, "Bah, that's just the frame. I'm sure the picture would be worth more. 😉"Posted by pinkbird03
I think playful definitely describes it! And I'd like to add witty. Now the question is why? Still trying to understand this silly guy. If anything at all, he's intriguing.
Why what? I don't understand.click to expand

Posted by UndauntedSoul88Sometimes being friends is nothing more than being friends. I don't have my hopes up. How long did you date your cap?Posted by pinkbird03The Cap I've been in love with the past few years, whose Venus is in Aquarius, was so fucking hard to read.Posted by UndauntedSoul88How about flirting when they don't like you?

His way of flirting went over my head, and he'd get frustrated with me because I didn't catch it.
After a couple of years of us going back and forth, he finally gave up. He's very cold towards me now. Which I know isn't your case with your guy, so you still have a chance.
The friend route is the proverbial foot in the door. I know if I could be "friends" with my Cap, he'd be reminded of why we fell for each other in the first place. They love feeling comfortable, to be able to be themselves. My Cap knows what we had was special, but he's punishing me for disappearing on him and not letting me make him fall again.
Just be friendly, cool, and caring. Let him fall in love. Cap men need to feel they're in control of their matters...so let him lead.

Posted by ladylibra21Yea ur the lucky one who gets to see him a lot!! That makes for great opportunities to bond and build ur relationship.
Yeah I say like shooting rubber bands at you walking by and tapping in front of you gentle teasing jumping from one subject to the next really quickly while laughing ?
Posted by pinkbird03That is a good way to put it I would say I am unlucky because I don't think he wants to be with me I think he's just comfortable with me. I am actually trying to leave my job. I had an interview the other day for a second job and I posted about it on Facebook. I called him afterwards to talk about something he did that pissed me off earlier that day and the first thing he says is "why are you leaving." "what's going on don't be keeping secrets from me." Smh I should just be selfless and be his friend because I think it would hurt to not have them in my life but at the same time I think it would hurt even more to have him there and not be able to get over him.Posted by ladylibra21Yea ur the lucky one who gets to see him a lot!!

Posted by Capri-sunYou think he's showing me his feelings? I wondering if it's just some sort of way to manipulate me. Because it's working! Let's see where I'm at mentally- hopeless, depressed, defeated, etc. it's a bad time of the year for me...

Why what? I don't understand.
So that's obvious flirting. He just wasn't ready to commit earlier. Work at a pace that is comfortable to you. Imo he's definitely warming up & showing you his feelings. Let him lead. Whatever you're doing at this point is working so stay in that place mentally.click to expand

Posted by yupvirgooLol cute story! Did you have any idea she liked you as much as she did?Posted by pinkbird03My third girlfriend was a Capricorn.Posted by yupvirgooShare your experiences 🙂
they're so surprisingly playful 🙂
it's so unexpected... but in a pleasant way lol
I was first attracted to her because of how smart and put-together she was. We went to university together. We made such a great team academically. Honestly, I was the one who initiated flirting with her but I was around 17-18 that time and I flirted with lots of girls lol. But I've always been extra persistent with her. She used to tell me how annoying I was but she'd always be all smiles lol. She's a total liar lol.
Apparently, she thought it was charming how I always hang around to sweet talk her after classes. Then one weekend she invited me to her place so we can work on a paper. And that's when she flirted with me out of the blue. After being verbally rejected by her for so long, I was speechless lol.
And she's so confident doing it too. No looking away. We Earth signs like that.
Let's just say that night turned out VERY WELL for both of us 😉click to expand

I finally let go recently and accepted things. I just met someone a couple of days ago while out having dinner with a girlfriend. Coincidentally, he's also a Cap. We've arranged to have dinner next Saturday. I hope it goes well. You can't move on without truly taking chances to. So, here's to taking chances. ☺

From what I read, he said you're beautiful and gave you a compliment. 🙂

It is 70% that I don't feel like I belong there I need to feel needed and like I am making a difference with my career. The other 30% is me trying to get away from him before I do something stupid.

Posted by cheekyfaerieWhy do you do that?

Posted by Capri-sunWhat you're saying makes sense. I'm just not seeing him iniate conversations or to hang out. That seems important.Posted by pinkbird03

You're in it so you have a better understanding, and I don't want to discount how you feel. If you don't think he likes you enough, that is understandable. Again if I were him, & I knew you liked me, I wouldn't be flirting in the 1st place...that's why I said he is showing you his feelings, meaning he likes you...maybe not enough like you say. If it's been 10 days of no contact & I have zero interest whatsoever, I probably wouldn't even engage in any conversation.

Posted by daron76Do you ever flirt with someone just for fun? When no feelings are attached?
I usually don't flirt until I know she is interested at least little. I usually start off subtle and eventually it gets pretty direct and obvious.

Posted by cheekyfaerieIt goes back to just being playful and having fun. It's funny how you also wrote you'd never say anything like that to someone who had feelings for you that you didn't reciprocate.Posted by pinkbird03I'unno. *shrugs*Posted by cheekyfaerieWhy do you do that?
Or I do, anyway. 😄
Probably because I appear confident AF until I like somebody and then I become an awkward penguin. That and I like playful banter. Sense of humor is a must and mine can be an acquired taste. It weeds out the people that won't *get* me.
It's also a sign of intelligence. My oldest told me once that I'm not funny. That I'm mean, but people think I'm joking. I don't think so. I think it takes talent to tease in a way that's not mean spirited, but playful. If someone can pick up what I'm doing and do it back, we create a bond. That bond is sometimes just friendly and sometimes the chemistry is romantic, but I don't think of someone in a romantic sense that can't hang.
The back and forth starts as ribbing and goes back and forth between that and sexual innuendo. It can be hard to tell the difference between friendly and romantic because my good friends and I lack boundaries so I'll say bawdy stuff to them too. But I'd never say anything like that to just an acquaintance or to someone I felt had feelings for me that I didn't reciprocate.

Posted by OnyxiaTeasing and wanting us to tick! Lol ur pros at that!
As a capricorn woman with a scorpio ascendant I like to flirt quite some. I'm a very humorous person so I am usually known for my cheeky phrases and very sexual jokes. The jokes. They are my tool for getting to anything and everything (unless it's a really serious matter of course). It is true that I am shy ,but I can get on some pretty good (sometimes cheesy) pick up lines.
If I have only have a sexual interest in the person I strictly keep it sultry , most of the time speaking "mysteriously". I make tons of pretty dirty sexual jokes that most people will need to have some certain level of intellect(kink) to understand (but I promise it's not hard that hard!).
If it's someone that really attracts me on an emotional level and brings the love fool out of me, I flirt by complimenting their features in a very genuine matter.
In conclusion I would just like to say that I use a lot of word play and things are often influenced by my interests (or mutual interests) so you kind of have to figure it out, also it might be a bit misleading because us Cappys can get missunderstood a lot and then you don't know if we like you or not... but we are just teasing and we want you to tick!
Hope this helped, set them on fire with your wittyness and intellect!

And I've had people that I've point blank told they need to cool their jets. Especially since the Virgo. I have some very good male friends that I trust implicitly, but there were some (i thought) good acquaintances that I had to put on blast for being borderline disrespectful of our relationship. The last thing I wanna do is give someone false hope.click to expand

Posted by Capri-sunDefinitely true for me!! I hate it! On tinder recently, I added a guy I hardly knew from college. Just was curious to know what he was up to now. Wanted to be friendly. No interest in him at all. Omg he remembered so much about me. I couldn't tell u one thing about him. Then he admits to wanting to date me in college and asks me out! Ugh I felt so bad when I told him the half truth that I was just using tinder as a way to distract myself from the guy I am trying to get over! I still feel bad as he keeps trying to talk to me!Posted by pinkbird03Posted by cheekyfaerieIs this a cap thing?

The back and forth starts as ribbing and goes back and forth between that and sexual innuendo. It can be hard to tell the difference between friendly and romantic because my good friends and I lack boundaries so I'll say bawdy stuff to them too. But I'd never say anything like that to just an acquaintance or to someone I felt had feelings for me that I didn't reciprocate.
And I've had people that I've point blank told they need to cool their jets. Especially since the Virgo. I have some very good male friends that I trust implicitly, but there were some (i thought) good acquaintances that I had to put on blast for being borderline disrespectful of our relationship. The last thing I wanna do is give someone false hope.
I am a cancer. I hate to lead someone on, but I have trouble speaking the truth because I don't want to hurt their feelings
If you want advice from someone who will speak the truth bluntly with no regard for your feelings, ask a Scorpio. If you want advice from someone who will spare you the truth to spare your feelings, ask a Cancer. If you want advice from someone with the wisdom to illuminate your situation in a way that regards both the truth & your feelings, ask a Capricorn.

Posted by pinkbird03No, not really. It would be a wast of time. Being witty isn't flirting to me. I'll find away to make it clear the convo is on another level.Posted by daron76Do you ever flirt with someone just for fun? When no feelings are attached?
I usually don't flirt until I know she is interested at least little. I usually start off subtle and eventually it gets pretty direct and obvious.click to expand



Posted by cap..Why?
Flirting makes me uncomfortable


Posted by cap..just hide in a closet or something
Cant and dont do it...as it doesnt come naturally to me and i do not want to make an effort and pretend to be someone i am not.
Now when it comes to someone flirting with me , clearcut direct flirting makes me very uncomfortable ..i feel too shy or irritated depending on the person 😢 . I have met few smart flirts though who flirted in such a way that i dint even realise ...that may be worked for me

Posted by pinkbird03this is why i hate business insider because how the fuck does that have anything to do with business? what am i going to do? flirt during a business deal?
I read this on Business Insider
Six reasons why people flirt
• Sex: trying to get in bed
• Fun: treating it like a sport
• Exploring: trying to see what it would be like to be in a relationship
• Relational: trying to increase the intimacy of a relationship
• Esteem: increasing one's own self esteem
• Instrumental: trying to get something from the other person
Why do you flirt? ?
