Once or twice, if I am truely busy, I'll leave getting in touch, and he is there the next day asking how I am etc. And I don't do games so I don't mess around with waiting till I text back etc. And am always fond, as is he, with kisses and smiley faces etc.

Thing is, I sent him an email yesterday, friendly, chatty about stuff ( I'd been caught up in
a robbery the day before (!) and was terrified, has texted him at work and he had calmed me down.) and at the end of the email I came straight out with ' want to meet up this weekend? I think we could both do with a laugh' and I have heard back, via text about this job etc, but nothing about the email... Do I ask again? Or do I leave it. If I leave it and he is in a cave, and I have to wait for him to get back to me, how the hell am I supposed to react to him? ' hi there, yeah, I'm fine' or acceptng the sugary coated lovliness he gives me at times? I just don't know waht to do. I feel like I need this old goat in my life ( could be a parent thing) and want to melt him. As I know I have done. How long do I wait for? And how come all decisions about meeting up and what we will do are in his court? I want an equal in life. And I know he does too. He is very shy with women and has said he is also really 'crap' with them, so part of me thinks if I can help his to overcome this, we will both win. So at times I will stick my neck out and it's hurting me like hell to do so... How do I let his know I am here, interested and waiting, without becoming a sap,? The tender part of me that wants to care for this
guy and help him be happier is totally at odds with how my pride is telling me to leave him
Alone. Sorry for long drawn out message, but I really am drawn to this guy And want to kiss him for the rest of my life...

I have seen by reading this ( excuses for spelling - its on a phone) that I am a typical Gemini aho can't stop talking!!!!

I need help with a Cappy guy.
I am a Gemini with Moon and Venus in Taurus.I am 43 yrs old divorced with no child living with family.He is 45 yrs old, leaving alone. He has 2 kids and takes them to his house every saturday night.I am a conservative type and do not chat or meet people on the net in general, I am divorced 7 yeras ago and I did not have any relatin before and after my ex. I am quite sentimental.

I met that cappy guy on facebook, we had common friends. We started to chat about music , cinema etc. We had lots in common.He was also a customer of my company so I felt secured with him. He works a lot and late.He is an architect.
He was very secretive.He did not have a clear photo on facebook at the beginning but I felt he was a nice guy.
One month after we met, we both had tickets for a concert and said we can meet there, I said I would go with my brother and I did so.He did not say with whom he would go. During the concert I looked for him sent messages but he did not reply. At that time I did not see his face clearly but at the end of the concert I saw a man with a beautiful blond girl. I was sure it was him. Later I wrote him that I could not meet him at the concert etc. He said his phone was closed and he saw my message after. We continued to chat we had great fun.We both are full of sense of humor. One day I asked him if he was the guy I saw at the concert, yes it was him with the blond. He answered '' silence of the lambs'' but did not want to talk about it more, so I stopped. Later he called me to meet. We met after 3 months had dinner in a nice restaurant he choose the restaurant and he was very gentile, very cute, talkative ,we talked for hours to each other. It went well but very friendly.
He was divorced with 2 kids. He was married a scorpio for 17 years.She was bipolar and she wanted to divorce as he said. She was a very ambitious woman with a high career. He was not the one who wanted to divorce because he likes family status que etc.I told him I had only one boyfriend in my life I married him, he cheated me etc.I also said I do not like and I am not the type for one nite relations. I never go if I do not see a future as my general principle in life etc.

After that date I felt that he would not call me as he did not like me etc. I just texted a thank you message and some information he asked for business. He replied telling that he had a good nite. I did not call him for a few days . One day he caught me at facebook and we

cont.
chated a bit. Then he called me and said. ''You dont call me so I called you''.Then I felt more confortable. We continued to chat or talk on the phone. In general he calls me. and I send him sms messages to say have a good week or weekend etc.
After 3 month he called a sarturday evening to have dinner that night. he was going to take his sons at 10 pm and wanted to meet me around 8 pm then he said it would be difficult perhaps we could do another time. Then I said dont be crazy we can meet in a mid point etc.Finally we met that night had a great time talk talk laugh laugh. He said we would be very good friends and etc etc etc. Then he said our moods are good. he also told me about his private life. He divorced 4 years ago and had 4 serious relationships wiht beautiful women havind career. But once they asked for a committment he felt bad and left them. HE says his x-wife has psycholog??cal problems and if he marries now his children will feel very bad. So he want to wait until they get old enough.( they are 11 and 16 now) His son asked him if he had a girl friend and he said he replied to have more than one. I did not understand if that was a joke or not. we stayed together until 11 pm that night.When we walk he is very kind and protective. After that dinner we kept calling each other in the same manner, jokes etc. Recently he started to make some sexual jokes , I showed I did not like them much but still can laugh.From time to time he said we should meet again. He called one night telling he bought a coffee mashine and if I canIshould go for a coffee but it was not very serious , I saidI was late andI had to sleep. For last 5 -6 days he did not call me, I messaged him 2 days ago and aske how he was. He replied he was ok and asked how I was. I send a confused smiley face. He called me and asked why I was confused. In fact I was confused with him, job and other issues but I did not tell him. I said it is just a crazy smiley etc. We spoke a bit, then he had to do something else he said he would call but did not for lat 2 days. He was more on facebook at the beginning but not much recently. Perhaps he works a lot or he has someone else. I have no idea and I do not know what to do with him. Any suggesstions.

I am....absolutely FED UP with this one Capricorn man. I am honestly...like. Wow. I know, eloquent. I'm a scorpio gal and am currently interested in two different Cap men. One is 29 and the other is 25. How come the 29 year old is sooooo much more immature than the 25 year old? At least that's how it seems so far. I've met both online and I'm drawn to both. I just don't know what to do. As a very passionate scorpio gal, I'm used to men who have lots of passion and interest for me. The older cap is just "ehhhh" about me and wants every other completely Crazy female but me. He's pessimistic, constantly needs cheering up, paranoid, the list goes on and on. But I still see his potential and I'm still attracted. I keep thinking, maybe if I hold out a little longer, if I'm patient a little longer, say the right things I can break through to him. But no.

This other Cap, the younger one, is completely charming and perhaps too much for his or my good. This is such an unusual situation for me, because usually men are drawn to me like a moth to the flame lol (usually get burned) but these damn Caps...grrrr. Can you tell I'm frustrated?

DOES ANYONE have insights into a cap-scorpio relationship? I'm a scorpio with a moon in capricorn.

Lawd, this is an old that thread popped up on google.... Yes, a cap-male pattern is established here. Caps seem to be worse than leos (or BETTER, rather) at the fishing game than lions. At least leos know how to be impulsive sometimes, and enjoy being in love, which caps appear to think is some kind of kyrptonite or perhaps a plague ridden corpse. Caps don't catch and release in the fishing game, tho some may find the some thrill in the challenge as much as any fire sign. Instead, they put you on a stringer in case they are hungry later. Hmmm... very, very smart strategy! My virgo parts admire this tremendously. My scorp/sag parts find it deplorable.

(((foxglove))) love your posts and brilliant insight too!
IMO, Caps (some males anyway) use their emo-mergoat part of themselves at the first of a budding relationship... then they seem to freak out about drowning and want out of their sea of emotions and become the mountain goat. Craggy peaks and snow caps (pun intended) from then on. But they are too practical to just let their catch go. Might be useful later, I suppose. But the catch was caught with emotional bait. It doesn't understand that it was put on a stringer then an ice chest. So I guess it flops around, and either stay too warm and spoils despite all the ice (either being too bitchy, too loving, too demanding, etc), which will then be put in the discarded pile, or minimally fed just enough to keep surviving, then is eventually beheaded, de-scaled, and frozen until they get hungry. Then youre fried (unless fortunate enough to be in the aforementioned discarded pile)! Or however the personal culinary style , but youre cooked and eaten nonetheless. And some kind of Stockholm syndrome kicks in and you lose your damn mind and actually want to be their dinner

Maybe explains the cap-aqua connection and their thing for other airy signs— They have to keep up their game, or it will be the 'one that got away' type thing, and their ego needs that enough to be inspired to become a taxidermist and mount the said catch permanently on their impenetrable walls.

Maybe saturn is just a bastard and won't let them be happy without searching for it in the extreme environments, with extreme difficulties? They can't press an "easy button" when it comes to relationships. Maybe anything.

Aqua & Cap may sound the best match but the only reason I think they both tolerate each other is because Aqua gives him all the space and may eat somewhere else, because they are not going to wait around in a string till Mr.grumpy comes back with the goods in his Saturn time. lol

My sis and I have had many conversations and I have witnessed how Mr.Cap would go out with his friends and she stayed home for many years asking him to put his family first and to stay and spend time with her. He was stubborn and did what he wanted.

Now that he is older, he wants to stay home and spend time with wife. well Aqua wife got tired of his B.S, and moved on. she is 40 now & has a 25 year old boy friend who gives her cuddling, tons of sex, and takes her out every where.

She said to him;

"how many times I asked you to be with us, to spend time with us, to no compare me to your cousins and the day I was so tired after work I bought some food and you threw it at me because I didn't cook that day, while you were here doing nothing""

I was there when he did that, and he deserves every bit of what she does now. He is a nice guy and I feel sorry for him, but I also understand my sister got tired of his B.S.



*fixed* cuz so true.

I soooooooo wish we were the evil Machiavellian geniuses so many of you gals think we are. lol

We move at a much different (slower) pace than most, we don't care to run around wearing our hearts on out sleeve, we need a fair amount of time alone, we work late hours, and we are perfectly capable of carrying on all of the conversation we need with nothing more than a nod and a grunt sometimes. Like any other sign's men, some of us are good at heart, and some are total bastards, and you have to exercise some judgement to figure out which you are dealing with. (An excellent reason to proceed slowly rather than jumping in there!)

We can take a very long time before we really let somebody inside. We can disappear for days, even weeks at a time if we are working long hours and have a deadline. We're not likely to cry during chick flicks if we watch them at all. We keep a lot bottled up inside, because that's how we're wired. Reforming one of us is virtually impossible if we are not to your liking. We like root canals slightly better than we like radical change usually. We behave ourselves in public, PDA is minimal and publicly appropriate for most of us.
If all of that is too much to handle, there are men of 11 other signs to check out who might be more compatible. It's that simple, really. There are thousands or articles, and likely thousands of posts on DXP, saying all of this about Capricorn men.
So I ask you all: Why not heed them, if we really are so frustrating and problematic?



My beef is try to BREAK UP and be DONE, and the cap guy trying to pull me back in. Well take the dump, or get the hell off my toilet! Saturn time is unreasonable for those who are not caps, or airy and dont give a shit

"Fair time" is what before I need to not care any longer? I mean, I am almost a half century yrs old. I don't have years and years....

A long time to jump inside?... okay. But again, saturn time, or regular time? I don't have saturn's timetable to put shit on hold.

I hate "chick flicks" with a passion. Lets watch high speed car chases, gun fights and blow shit up if I am going to be mesmerized. The Spike channel is OK. We don't have to watch Lifetime. Tho I have personally observed men watching lifetime and reading cosmos.

The magical "stockholm syndrome" pisses me off. Its not intentional Im sure. But difficult to be a

Let them R24, they want to stay planted there then they can stay. so far the ones that I have noticed of all my clients that are single are the CAPS, and I feel sooooo sorry for them now that I read all kinds of complaints.

For the ones that didn't know about themselves, I feel bad, but for the ones that know about themselves and still come up with millions of excuses, I don't. You get with the program or stay behind.

And reading cowpuncher's stubbornly excuses. whether we take it or leave it,, f''' that, I leave it at an instant even if I have to cry for the rest of my life, but no one keeps me on a string. I will burn the f'n string with all the FIRE in my chart without compassion.




I hope you don't delete, but just take your break. Hugs and love

+100 bro.



Youre +100 will likely get you one of two options. A desperate woman that stands the test of time (because she is inherently desperate) or a woman that is aloof because she doesn't really give a shit. Pick your poison



Frankly, I'm just tired of hearing it all. 11 other signs out there. If anybody thinks Cap men are really so bad, please shop elsewhere, thank you very much.

Why do so many women today think that a guy has to be GLUED to them? Really? Sorry, I see too much of that sentiment around here all the time.

If you don't find what you want with a Cap Male because he moves to slow, he works too much, he doesn't give enough attention... so be it. Go find your happiness ladies, you have as much right to pursue happiness as anybody else.

Meanwhile, don't knock Cap Males if they try to live life on their own terms, if you demand the right to live YOUR life on YOUR own terms. If we're that bad, take a good hard look at what makes you happy, and assess whether you are really compatible with a Cap.

It there any sign where the males are notorious for giving a woman oodles and gobs of constant attention folks? geez.

You know why? Because I have told cap guy numerous times "hey we are incompatible" go play else where, I am tired of being ignored, I am SICK TO DEATH of it all, though I had very deep feelings. Now he has been blowing up my phone. The usual. Everytime I breakup. He says I enjoy all this bullshit. Well, I don't. MANIPULATION. Better than any scorp guy. I just thought they were bad asses

cowpuncher calm down. sheeshhh



I'm perfectly calm.

However, if you gals really are having so much trouble with Capricorn men, examine that... an also understand that not all of us are bad folks. Maybe we're just different?

I don't want any of you to be unhappy, but if something isn't working for you... why keep repeating it?

This is my 1st. And my experience was reflected in this thread. And no, it was not personal. But I am emotionally driven (sorry but I am) and today was a very bad day. And cap guy was playing with me before I had enough time to contain it, I vented here. So shoot me. It would be great

Goodnight, 88 -- hope to see you again. 🙂



Yeah, I hope she doesn't delete. her aqua sister is married to a cap. So is mine. The similarities of the dynamics are uncanny. So caps, "win" over that aloof person. Then be aloof after that when they have shown you years of loyalty. Enjoy that conquest. Because it takes A LOT for that aloof person to adapt to your even aloof-er ways. And when you age in reverse and want that nearly unattainable closeness with the aloof natured person that you "won" years ago, well the coldness won't be readily forgotten

Good points, R24 -- I mean, I think you CAN get to that place where trust is there, and the aloofness goes away for both of you. Unfortunately, the only way to that place that's ever worked for me and a Cap man is to go the friend-zoning route. Then it's smooth sailing (well, mostly). lol

Agree!!!
Because there have been a LOT of "air" signs in my life. I had a Gemini hubby. My sister has almost EVERY planetary placement in Aquarius. My daughter is a Libra. All of these individuals were just as emotive as any water sign, tho they are a bit more resilient to emotional upheavals. Now my aqua sister put up with cap being cold, having a fixation on his ex-wife, telling her to be less clingy for YEARS. Now he wants to be close because she was loyal through all that. But it has taken a toll. She doesn't want anymore

***Dxpnet needs a edit button, lol***

It sucks to read so many women having issues with Capricorn men. I have never experienced the negativities expressed on this forum and am surrounded by Cap men, my father, 2 brothers, 5 male friends, and 3 I have had long term relationships with. I think the man is misunderstood. To be with a Capricorn man you have to first be secure with yourself to handle the truth. I've read many women mistaken their remarks as harsh, when it's not, it's being REAL. He is not going to sit there and sugar coat the answers to you, however, he will not be malicious about it either. If he genuinely loves and cares for you he will tell you the truth whether he knows it will hurt your feelings or not.

Cap men are a bit slow and more cautious IF they are interested in a relationship with you. That is because they are looking at it long term. However, if he wants you he wants you PERIOD If you are sitting around pondering whether this Cap man is into you are not, he's more than likely not. I am sure if you ask him and are upfront, he will not hesitate to tell you where you two stand. This he wants to be friends one minute and lovers the next, is not a Cap game, that's a mans game. If you ladies allow a man to be able to fiddle faddle with your heart and whats in between your legs, they will.

A Cap needs their space. I believe this goes for both man and woman. Most Caps if they have evolved are workaholics and are constantly thinking whats the next step. Their idea of escape may not always be up under their loved one. Sometime they need to rejuvenate else where, whether it being in a different room in the house, taking a drive, going to a restaurant alone, etc...let them be. The more you nag about their space the more space they will continue to take because your constantly draining them.

The Cap men I have and have had in my life romantically have so many dimensions to him, hard worker, witty, sexy, ambitious, romantic, wise, self-discipline, loving, polite, loyal, creative, conversationalist, moody, engaging, serious, perfectionist, generous, compassionate, gentle, and most of all passionate lovers in bed.

If a Cap man seems stand offish in the beginning it's because he is not going to open up to just anyone. In his eyes not everyone is worthy of having him at his best, but when you are, you will know it.

I hope I shed a more positive light on Cap men. I can only tell it from my experience.

Cap guys (ime) open up, all the way up. Then they disafuckingpear. Leaving the other party thinking wtf? That is the rub in my situation.

Some caps guys (ime and reflected on this thread) say all kinds of "I love you's" and then go off radar. So what else is to think but wtf?

And then you find out they are telling several others the same shit.

And then you discover it wasn't "processing" it was just a juggling act and they were juggling too many at the same time. I will not be juggled.

When cap says "I will be yours for the rest of my days"
When cap says " I love you more than anyone and anything"
When caps says "youre the best thing that has ever happened to me"
When cap gets butt hurt about you calling him out on his long disappearance acts and says "how can you hurt me like this?"

TAKE IT WITH A GRAIN OF SALT!!! He is telling others this same shit. Youre nothing special

Ugh, I just say forget them. If that man is playing those games, I'd just lose interest and lose it fast. Like Eula said, it's more of a man thing (an immature one), a man who just wants to mess around and play childish games and not commit to a beautiful, loyal lady.

I think a real man who loves/cares for his lady won't leave someone hanging and wondering where the hell their relationship stands. I wouldn't dream of disappearing on someone I really loved or even cared for. IT's hurtful and mean. I've ignored partners after an argument but I've always told them, "I need to be alone right now and need time to myself!"




I know there are great caps. Iam just emo now (and always) about being played with. And you are absolutely right.

I was warned a long time ago by WL and inana and a few others, so its my fault, esp having others' foresight and now my own hindsight.

I'm just venting and stinging myself. I'll get over it. Scorps can be black and white, dramatic, extreme, broad brush painters... and unfairly so. Logically, I know that. I just aint feelin' it right now

I have suspicions.But then I think it's justmy suspicious nature and unwillingness to give others' a chance, so I don't heed my negative spidey senses... cuz I want to believe

I've just joined this and have found the comments very useful in trying to understand the Capricorn man. I have a situation of my own with a Capricorn and would appreciate if anyone could add their insight and opinions into what they think the guy is feeling.

Basically, we work together and we started talking on facebook occasionally and then we got each others numbers and started texting occasionally too. It started off very casual so we would talk a lot one day and then not talk at all the next etc. However, we started texting a lot more and we got a lot more flirty and close at work, he would tell me things that not many people know and I felt comfortable enough to do the same. We text every day for around 2 weeks and out conversations would always last until the early hours of the morning, say about 1 or 2am.

We were talking about how fussy he is when it comes to girls and he told me that it was a good thing. When I asked why he said 'don't mess about, don't wanna waste time'. I didn't know how to take this, was he trying to tell me he didn't want to waste time with me or was it just a general comment? We have stayed at the talking stage for a while so to me this is almost 'wasting time' which suggests he doesn't like me because otherwise he would make more effort to move things on. Like ask me if I wanted to go to the cinema or something..

Anyway, we were getting on really well and he always asked me if I wanted a lift home from work, even though he knew I had one already. However, recently he has been a lot more distant and cold. If I text him he wont make an effort to carry on the conversation like he always did before, and now sometimes doesn't reply at all even if it's necessary for him to.

He's just so hot and cold and I don't know where I stand. I don't want to scare him off by voicing my concerns because technically we are only friends, but a lot of the time he made me feel like we could be more. Should I be worried by his change? Was he interested before and isn't now or was he never interested? Or is he still interested? Someone please help!

I hear you precisely rhymmiclioness! I'm also a Leo and find that I am totally okay with being the submissive partner here because I know its the only way it will work and you know us Leo women... Whatever it takes.

Our circumstances may differ slightly as my Cap is a bush man - we're in South Africa. He's big on the Rhino conservation scene and, through his (not surprisingly) successful run of the mill business, he funds his own private venture. He regularly falls off the grid for days on end where he and his team track poachers so there is absolutely no contact what-so-ever. However, even when he's in the real world he travels extensively so again, no contact. But! There is something that keeps me tied to him. I think I secretly like being beaten (pun) into submission but he is just so worth it.

We were friends for a year and have now been lovers for eight months and it's been mind blowing albeit few and far between. But I would rather feel this way about someone who I see several times a month than someone I see every day as I get bored with the "Yes ma'am, No ma'am" types very quickly.

Hmmmmm - so where does that leave us? Leo's, in love with Caps, who stifle their birthright AND Independence for a man who has a problem with both showing and verbalising how he feels for us.

I would say we rock in the name of love sister! Respect :-)

Hiya

I'm extremely new to this.

I've been dating a Capricorn guy now for 8 months. We were friends for like 9 months then I asked if he was keen on being more than just friends. I will be honest he irritates the crap out of me. He's so busy but we probably spend like one day a week together. He's quote happy to do stuff with his family and friends but doesn't invite me along.

Should I approach him about this...There have been a few times we almost broke up but we always managed to talk things over.

I guess for me I don't want to waste my time with someone who only sees me as a space saver...

Maybe its just me?

In my experience, Cap men are usually skittish when it comes to committment. They want to be sure before they make any promises.

I have 2 examples. The first Cap I met was at school. He was nice and open with me, and helped me with hmwk. When he found out I was unavailable, he backed off. He's still there for me as a friend and makes an effort, but not like before. We never got intimate and i didn't feel
an instant connection.

The 2nd (and current) Cap is the opposite. OMG, the sexual energy between us is amazing. Damn.
He says he's in love with me, hints at marraige and wants us to last forever. He's been persistent about wanting me to meet friends and family. We spend the majority of his free time together. I still have to be patient because he is so busy but i don't have to guess if he loves me because he says it frequently.

I think Caps are very interesting. In love and commitment they seem cautious, slow and strategic. However, when they are sure about someone, they give it all they have.

Did i mention the sex with my Cap is hot? Haha 🙂 damn u sexy goats!

I know this thread is kinda old but I have a story for you!

I met my cap in high school at age 17 and we are now both 24. Known him 7 years now.
It has been a ROUGH ride but such a worthwhile one to me.

Here's our brief story:

Meet and fall in love instantly (for me anyway, I even went home and told my mom that I had met my future husband and I still feel that way) - I see him as perfect in every way. He is cautious. Says he's busy a lot but I push through and we spend more and more time together... We start dating officially after 2 months and continue on for a year. He took about 3 months to get physical with me (sexually I mean - we were physical in other ways from day 1). Took more time to say I love you. Then out of the blue left me. Within days he came back to me and said he could NEVER leave me but didn't want a girlfriend because he was about to start university. We saw each other for TWO YEARS unofficially and he would have all the time in the world for me but then if he had exams I wouldn't hear from him for weeks. Literally would turn his phone off and shut everyone else until exams were done!

Over the summer of the second year of university at age 20 we spent months together on end and I fell pregnant with his child. That February we made things official again and decided to be parents together. I lost the baby. We continued to date until the next August. Things were strained and got worse and worse until we eventually had a terrible breakup. He told me hated me and felt trapped and we didn't speak for 6 months! Then one day the next March he said he wanted to see me so we met up after university. It was a Friday night. At the end of the night he caught me totally off guard and said I've always been the one and that he wants to be with me for good now. And we've been together since - almost 2 years now. He FINALLY decided that I'm good enough to live with which is huge since he has always said he'd only live with the girl he intends to marry. It's been really great. He's a wonderful man and is always honest. When he's angry - stay away! I have the tendency to always want to talk things out but he wants to hide away. My advice is to let him (even though it's hard) because he always comes back more loving and caring than before.

Every few months we'll have a BIG fight - the last one was when we were out with some friends (which is rare since he's very introverted), I mentioned something about our sex life while out drinking (an

(and it was a GOOD thing - I said we have sex often even after years together) and the man FLIPPED. He said "we're going home". He SHOUTED at me the whole way home (he never yells and is always composed). He ended up in our spare bedroom that night. He said I'm trashy for discussing our private life and that he deserves better. Mind you I cook, clean, and work fulltime plus pander to his every need. Not to mention that I'm beautiful and have stuck with him through thick and thin. ANYWAY. He came back into our bedroom a few hours later extremely apologetic and saying he doesn't understand why when one thing goes wrong he feels like everything is wrong. And he acknowledged that he holds himself and others to an extremely unattainable standard and that he's sorry. I am still kinda angry at what he did. And he seems to have a blow-up like this once a year. Like last year we had a small disagreement that turned into him leaving me and saying we're through for good. Within less than 2 hours he had driven back to my house and begged me for forgiveness. He needs me and I need him. Things aren't always easy though.

What I am trying to say is this. He is a strange, mysterious soul. He needs a woman who is patient but also one who listens. He is tormented and it's because he doesn't understand his own feelings half the time. He likes traditional gender roles and to be in charge but to also see that you have a back-bone. He will lose interest if he can walk all over you so be firm but fair and always kind. If you are in it for the long-haul then realise that there will be times when he gets confused or says things he doesn't mean out of spite or anger. But that he is loyal and has a good heart.

My cap is the most hard-working man I know. He's also so loving and giving. He spoils me rotten, helps me cook and clean and is amazingly good in bed. He is so family-orienatated and admires goodness in others. Oh and he likes classy women. He does not care for loud women who drink, smoke or swear. I dress like I'm in the 50s and he adores it and I act kind of shy in public and stand behind him when we're out to make him feel like 'the man'. But he wants a dirty girl in bed. Nothing too crazy but he wants a slut behind closed doors. Our sex is on fire.

Help him to have fun and get him to relax - take interest in his hobbies. Hope this helps someone who is trying to understand their cap. He's so true to his sign it's unreal. Cautious and a workaholic who likes to take
