Capricorn Insecurity

Are any of you Caps insecure about how you look? I sometimes never feel i look good,or good enough. I work out every single day. I am up at 5:00am. I turn the coffee on so its done when my Cancer gets up. She is a bear without it. Ha ha. Than i go run 5 miles.Come home and do 100 crunches. 100 Push ups,and lift weights. Seriously, I Have 0% body fat. I have a 8 pack. I dress nice. I am still insecure about how i look. Any other Caps have this problem? Or is it just ME?

I Grew up poor also. My mom worked 2 jobs to make ends meet. I had a job to help her till i did bad stuff to pay bills. Dont ask. Ha! Which is why i work VERY hard now to make the good $ $ . I am a roofer. It is very hard work. I wen't to school to be a Chef. Now. I am a roofer. I Like it though. It gives me a workout and a tan. It irritates me though because i find myself going over everybody's work. Making sure it was done right. Ha! Every time i drive around town with my girl. I point houses out and say. "Wow, look at that house. New roof but crappy job. Wonder who did it? You cant help it. I throw myself into my work hardcore.

I didn't have much fashion sense about a year ago. My girl said i dressed like a grandpa. I was comfy in my jeans and flannel shirts. Or polo shirts and khaki's. Now i dress more stylish. She is always buying me clothes when she shops. I Have Tattoos,piercings. Both ears are pierced twice with nipple rings in my ears. I am a rocker,bad boy type, that is just comfy in grandpa clothes i guess. *Shrugs* Ha ha! And i will not go ANYWHERE without a hat. I am a hat person. Call me Hat Man!!! I own 24 hats. Not because i have a receding hair line. I shave my head and bic it all off! I Like ball park type hats. My corona one with the bottle opener on it is my favorite!

Yes, I can be insecure about how I look but I'm not one to wear it on my sleeve. Also, unlike the two of you, I've very lazy when it comes to working out, so that doesn't help. I FINALLY went to the doctor a about two months ago(I was feeling, and still feel, sick) and he told me nothing is wrong and that I probably just need to lift something every once in a while and just become more active. I refuse to believe I feel this way because I'm lazy, but ya never know lol.

As far as looks, I think what makes me most insecure is that when I think I look cute nobody compliments me. It's like I get compliments at the most random times, so that throws me off.

As far as dress/ style , I have none. I just try to look neat, but there isn't enough money in the world for me to dress the way I'd like, so I don't even try to be honest.

My Cap friend would say "I know I'm ugly, but I can still get who I want" lol. He's not ugly, but obviously he feels that way at times, so maybe it is a Cap thing to be a little insecure about looks?! Also, he dated a Cancer at one time, and he said she was the one that stepped his style up. He said she'd pick out his clothes, iron them, and she made sure that he looked right when he stepped out the house. Before that, I don't even think he owned a pair of jeans. He was a slacks and church shoes guy LoL.

YES! My Cancer woman does that too! She buys me clothes all the time, and shoes. Necklaces and rings. I actually have some cool MAN rings. I wear a silver Celtic knot necklace, or my silver cross. My hats even match now. She bought me a badazz black hat with a black leather cross on it,and a silver design on it. and it was also pin striped. Its VERY cool. And i got a lot of jeans now. Nicer shirts. She bought me a lot of stuff at Hot Topic. And a few things at Old Navy. I didn't know anything about style till she came along. To be honest. I still don't. Ha!

Aww, that's too cute!

I'm self conscious, too. I grew up as the skinny, red haired girl with freckles. Then as I got older, I began to appreciate the red hair and the uniqueness of it (especially, how guys think its special!). Oh, by the way, it pisses me off when people dye their hair red - I'm all "POSER! Mine's REAL!". Anyways, I never, ever feel or felt attractive, but I have had people tell me I am and that it's mostly because I don't know it. I personally, don't think so. I am within normal limits on the body fat/mass ratio. I don't work out much, and I don't eat healthy, I just don't eat a lot. I think our self image as a child carries through with us to adult hood. I have also heard it said that Capricorns bloom at a later age than anyone else and that we get more attractive as we age. (maybe we can finally afford better quality clothes and hair cuts...haha).

I very rarely ever feel dressed appropriately - usually over or underdressed. I don't feel the stylish clothes fit me or look good on me and don't feel comfortable in them. I'm either too old for the style or not thin enough or have the right figure for them. When my friends dress me up, I feel like I'm wearing a costume. I'm more comfortable in work clothes and business suits than casual clothes -- unless its boots and jeans! And I LOVE MY BOOTS!!

truecap. I think all us caps prefer our comfortable clothes. I do dress up to please my woman. My family noticed. We go to my family's house and they tell my Cancer. STOP spoiling him! Ha! She does spoil me. More than i do her. She also has the time to shop. She works 8 to 12 hours a month. I work 12 hours a day. That could be the reason why. Although raising 4 kids is a job too. I know. I have done it while she goes grocery shopping. I don't know how she manages it. On top of cooking and keeping the house clean. Your NEVER too old to look nice. Don't let anyone tell you different.

I Was not very good looking as a teen. I had long hair. Zits everywhere. Snow white skin. and NO muscle tone. Now i am 33 and i am tan. 8 Pack and hard pecs. Strong arm definition. Leg definition. Shaved head. Goatee. Long side burns. Tattoos. Piercings. I think i look better than i did. If a woman hit on me i would never know it though. I am kind of insecure. If my Cancer didn't make the first move. I wouldn't have. My heart was skipping beats with our first conversation. I am just glad she did. I was TOO shy to. I probably never would have never made a move. That whole fear of rejection thing. Girls have always intimidated me.

Its funny to read what I already see a lot of from Caps in general. I think lots of caps have a bit of a difficult start in their lives (also as far as looks and how they feel about themselves) but most of them do blossom quite nicely in later years. Like rough diamonds.

Im a Virgo myself, Ive never ever been insecure about my looks, Im not sure why exactly (maybe cause of lots of reassurance by my parents?) though from a very early age I was quite aware that I looked rather good 😛 lol back in primary school/highschool I never wanted to be popular whatsoever, I just loved studying and competing in sports so I guess that in itself made me popular heheh. I was a bit shy with the girls though, I had so many friends tell me how jealous they were I got so much female attention and how stupid I was for not going after all those girls lol I have no regrets though, I wanted to do it my way, on my own terms and pace 😛

What are you insecure about? Beauty is from deep within. I was always slightly shy and my crappie friend took that, as I was insecure. I use to work out all the time and had a great body and face. I also use to be crazy arrogant. I gained over 30 pounds and I still look good but I'm a different person. I'm saying this because to say beauty is from deep within because everything that look good on the outside not always good on the inside!!!
