Capricorns and Texting
What Are Capricorn Texting Habits Like?
Many people notice Capricorns are not big on constant texting and can come across as distant or slow to reply. They often keep messages short and only respond when they feel it is necessary, which can feel confusing early on. Some experience steady communication over time, while others deal with long gaps or mixed signals. In real situations, their texting style tends to reflect how comfortable or invested they are.

I don't like it much either. I hate the phone, but I prefer it to texting IF I like someone, and prefer one-on-one interaction to it all.
Like you, I don't have super exciting daily updates lol, so it does tend to make it awkward on my end.
unless im into you alot! or your a good friend im rather blah and not enthusiastic about the texting like wise for even face to face interaction.
those what you doing dry convos are the worst its like rather watch paint dry -_-
i hate it! getting hooked at it does cause anxiety problem and lack of patients and u see things u rather not see h bb world hello twitter -_-
I like face to face communication best. But, I would much rather text than talk on the phone!

"When someone says, "How was your day?", translate that to, "I'm thinking of you and hoping you're doing well". They're not really looking for a synopsis of your day, nor to suffocate you. People like you and they think about you. Is that so wrong?!"
I agree with this statement and thats how I see it. It means they are thinking of you and who doesn't like being thought of?

I hate texts. I hate the damned text tone, it nearly gives me an anxiety attack each time! I hate cellphones! i've got a cellphone again and I resent that this evening people (in-law family weekend party😢) will be asking me again and reminding me that I "need" to carry it with me everywhere, all the time.😢 I've got major anxiety to look forward to! They're Aqua, Sag and Gem, they won't understand. I haven't told my Libra mom yet.😄 She'll be pissed to be the last one to find out.WHY DOES ACQUIRING A CELLPHONE FEEL LIKE "COMING OUT" with some deep dark secret?!
Yes! I jump at the sound when someone text me, and one night I almost had a heart-attack because I had my phone on my bed on vibrate and I got a text at like 3am. My heart was pounding!
My bill is due today, and I'm wondering if I should pay it.
I honestly just got a cell phone about a year or two ago, and its really not a necessity to me. Everyone around me just think it is. I'm not the biggest fan of phones either.
This thread is hilarious to me. My conversation last night with the Cap.
Me: Hey I think we should blah, blah, blah.....and then we should blah, blah, blah. What do you think about that?
Cap: Ok
Me: Why do you text me back with one word answers?
Cap: How many words should there be?
END OF CONVERSATION !!! He wasn't even being rude. Just Capricornish. I'm getting use to it. I think.

Yes!
hahha @Elusive what you trying to say about my aries asc :p
aww we cappies like it simple yet we so complex and deep its rather baffling more time.
its funny when people think they know us inside out. i laugh now as im like theres parts of me that i dont know 😄
LOL @ these awesome posts. I can relate so much... especially @ElusiveSoul, I get "How was your day?" every day, from the same person all the time -__- (don't know if him being a gemini makes any difference? I'm still a beginner at astrology) and something different from him would be nice, although we do have interesting conversations every now & then.
Even w/ small talk I'm fine with but if it's awkward, I'm gonna shut down on you and I'm not gonna feel bad about it UNLESS you can come up w/ something better to talk about. But if I'm into you, I'll try to get you interested in me ^_^ That's the only time I don't mind having to text so constantly.
@metoo, I love this little bit, "Or you can post on your facebook wall 'dear friends, I have decided I hate texting and am going text free going forward and so if you wanna catch up call me or lets get together but if you text, you might be waiting awhile to ever hear back from me'" I reeaally oughta try that one day xD
And I'm not really guilty of the one-word texts. I guess it's cuz I feel obligated to give a little more than the simple yes, no, or okay 😛

Hehehhehe lol 😉??_. Oh I just love that placement. Drives me nutters at times, coz the first responses that come from those who have this placement usually are misleading to what person is really trying to say, but I can't help to LOOVEEE it 😄 😛!
Keeps me engaged, wanting to find more about the individual 😄

rlly!? that is what i had about the damn thing ugh i like to say what i mean and mean what i say but the damn thing twist it and im like i hope you understand what i meant and it not -_-.but this is on an emotional level this happen but still damn it man. *kicks self*
rather texting phone calls unless its important not into the long talking we not together stillz. say what you have to and get of my the phone
I hate texting unless im talking to a dumbass then we can throw letters.
you can have mine @Elusive i lke making things clear as day and this certainly doesnt help
My only cap friend loves to text. My only cap acquaintance... I dunno. She facebooks all day though.
Don't even have a cellphone. Which means none of this texting bullshit.
Wow this post answers a lot about my Cap guy.... Forget the post I wrote earlier! This answered it all!

They are short with text ..
My boyfriend is like this!! My text are paragraphs long at times when I get excited and his responses are usually a sentence long.. sometimes even 1 worded.
In my mind I'm like "umm okay.." ??♀️ lol
They're straight to the point types of ppl..
Now, face to face, he talks my ear off.. but I love it!! ♥️

My cap guy does the same exact thing! I asked him a question last night and his answer was a simple "No"
I asked him "Ok, why is that"
He goes "IDK"
I find he also uses acronyms like there's no tomorrow, so he doesn't have to text out all the words!

Haha! I watched my Cap bf texting one day in person. He texts so freaking slow. No wonder his responses are short ( I thought) lol usually if he wants to talk more (that involves him giving more info) he calls me. But he does like texting more those short one sentence so he can check in on the fly lol
click to expand
The one I talk to on & off. He talks a little bit more in person. He just started to open up a little more to me when it comes to venting about things he's passionate about career wise. Took his ass long enough (8 months now). He uses his phone a lot. However, when it's us having dinner, he'll put his phone down. Or when it's us having innocent alone time, he'll put his phone down.

OMG yessssss... To the slow texting... LOL.. When we're together since we don't see each other much, he usually starts a text/email on his phone and then in the middle of writing, he gives up after a like FUCK IT, I'll send it later.. hahah..
Yea I think my cap calls when more needs to be said or he's being impatient with me.. & wants a response from me RIGHT away!! 😛

I agree..
He does a lot from his phone for business email wise.. but even still, he puts aside work and his phone all together when it's alone time for us...
There's only been one time where he actually took a call while we were together and it was for business..
Then one night when we first started dating his phone was going off the hook with alerts.. I didn't think anything of it.. We weren't an item yet so it wasn't my place.. and guys were still hitting me up too.. BUT he always keeps his phone facing with the screen up.. and even that night he shows me his phone and goes, "Look... work still going even when I'm off the clock.. *sigh**.. It can wait.." Then he gave me this cute little kiss on my nose..
🙂
Poison_Ivy or SugarandSpunk -
Just wondering.... Who initiates the conversations between you and your caps? Do you get "good morning" or "Hows your day going?" texts first?

LOL! Really? Aww.. Can't get mine to shut up when were together.. But I enjoy it cause it's hard being in a LDR and only using the form of communication he hates.. THE PHONE... and I like when he gets open, talking about his passions, or expressing his feels for me..
The only time he's quiet in person is if he is starring at me.. then he'll go, "Why are you so sexy?"
Me: o_O "Uhhmmm, idk, my mom made me??" LMAO!

Mine talks a lot in person! Lol. He doesn't usually have his phone with him when I'm with him, but unless he's expecting someone to contact him like one of his sons or a friend who's coming by. I think it was texting back his son that day. it's actually unusual I'd see him texting. It's taken me 8 months to figure that out lol.
click to expand
Yea, most of the time my cap just sits his phone down.. wherever we are.. He doesn't even really keep it on him.. He'll pick it up to check the time.. & the one time he stayed on it, I was visitng him and he didn't want me to drive home so he was steady looking up suites for us to stay in for the night.. That's the most I've seen him on it..
yes, it's all true - and I'm only a Cap Moon but I hate a lot of texting and would rather talk on the phone for a little bit but I'm very to the point and no beating around the bush - I go straight through the bush and don't care for sugar coating

This thread is hilarious to me. My conversation last night with the Cap.Me: Hey I think we should blah, blah, blah.....and then we should blah, blah, blah. What do you think about that?
Cap: Ok
Me: Why do you text me back with one word answers?
Cap: How many words should there be?
END OF CONVERSATION !!! He wasn't even being rude. Just Capricornish. I'm getting use to it. I think.
Haha this is funny! I was JUST TALKING ABOUT THIS last night with @SugarandSpunk
They are short with text ..
My boyfriend is like this!! My text are paragraphs long at times when I get excited and his responses are usually a sentence long.. sometimes even 1 worded.
In my mind I'm like "umm okay.." ??♀️ lol
They're straight to the point types of ppl..
Now, face to face, he talks my ear off.. but I love it!! ♥️
—
Haha! It's very opposite text vs face to face. Can barely get a word in when face to face.
LOL! Really? Aww.. Can't get mine to shut up when were together.. But I enjoy it cause it's hard being in a LDR and only using the form of communication he hates.. THE PHONE... and I like when he gets open, talking about his passions, or expressing his feels for me..
The only time he's quiet in person is if he is starring at me.. then he'll go, "Why are you so sexy?"
Me: o_O "Uhhmmm, idk, my mom made me??" LMAO!

Oh no no I was agreeing with you in not getting them to shut up in person. I meant "I" can't get a word in because they like to hear themselves talk haha

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO fuck our lives for being involved with cap men. Well I'm not involved but talking to one. Anyways, yeah, I type sonnets for texts and I get one word answers or one short ass sentence. It triggers me but I don't let it show ever. Gotta play the cool Taurus role for now. lol
UGHHHH! So annoying on many levels.. But what can we say.. We love/like them guys!! SMH hahah!
LMAO! I play it cool too but it boils my skin! When he gets in the "mood" I get a little longer text out of him but it's rare! LOL!
Oh ofc! If it's about sex or anything remotely to it. That is when we have their full attention and they are ready to serve lol
Uh OMG so true! When my cap guy and I are texting about sex, thats when his flow of texts come in at a steady pace (Steady being a rapid pace for Caps)!

RIGHT! lol
I text back during our sexting and it takes him literally a second to respond.. I'm like got damn.. Can I get this on the regular?? lol

Poison_Ivy or SugarandSpunk -Just wondering.... Who initiates the conversations between you and your caps? Do you get "good morning" or "Hows your day going?" texts first?
I do most of the initiating..
He does it sometimes.. like to say "I miss you." OR "Hope you have a blessed day!" etc.. It's usually text sometimes that starts off the day BUT he won't be able to keep texting so it's to the point like "Good morning, I hope you are having a good day, TTYL!" .. Or if he doesn't hear from me in a while, he text first..
BUT if we're counting I do it more than him..
I have to consider that he works sun up to sun down and even sometimes, sun up to sun up.. He's usually beat and I get up before him every morning before work so the norm is me saying "good morning" first..

You didn't mention me, but it is my Cap who initiates those type of texts. Usually I only do it if He's slacking lol.

Aww I'm sorry for not asking you too Rindaroo! Thank you for replying... See my cap guy doesnt text me in the mornings... It really bugs me.

Ok,that pretty much sounds like the situation with my cap guy. It was starting to bug me that I had to initiate things most of the time. And also made me question if I was the second person (first being his kid) he thought of when he woke up because I hardly receive good morning texts.

Def how my cap is..
& I dare not ask if he's tired and wants to talk later because since he's "straight to the point" he comes off as "dry..
The one time I did ask :
He responded , "If I didn't wanna talk, I wouldn't have called you.." Okay smart ass..😛 lol
But it's only occasions when he's dry on the phone.. He normally chats me up.. and then ends up having something to do and he just gets off the phone .. So, yeah, not much of a phone person, tbh.

Right.. Im like OMG! Can I say something babe.. Sometimes we bicker about an old argument and he usually laughs it off.. It aint so funny at the time cause his ass doesn't laugh then.. He just shuts down! LOL! I'm usually quiet in person then cause he's either talking THE MOST or trying to "swallow my tongue.." SMH!

I understand completely!
Don't let it bug you, love..
It use to bug me, tbh.. but I've gotten use to his ways over time.. & try to be as patient as I can with him.. I know his schedule is pretty hectic.. and even on his off days, he is lazy, usually likes to lounge around and stay in and catch up on rest or spend time w/ his kids so he doesn't really say much then either..
There have been occasions where he's texted me on days where he only has office work and is working from home.. then he has more time and we usually text those days the whole way through til we say "good night.."
All depends on his schedule.

Ok thank you, I'll try not to let it get to me. I'm learning a lot from you all on my cap from your experiences that resonate with mine! :-) My cap also lounges around on his days off - But see, thats when I would expect to see or chat with him more - when he's doing nothing!
I'll text him saying "Whatcha up to handsome?"
He'll respond "Sitting in my chair" or "Watching the hockey game"
So with that said, that also brings up another thing that erks me... So if he's doing nothing, why doesnt he ask or make an attempt to try and hangout(!?!?!). Usually I have to, like texting, take the lead on getting him out of the house. Last Friday he took me out on a date to the movies, however, I was the one that had to get the ball rolling for us to meet up.
Today, instead of asking him if he wanted to hangout, I instead told him that we were.
His response was "I think I will be in bed at that time..."
I said "Drink a redbull or take a nap and expect me at your house at 10" (Had to choose a late time because he hasnt introduced his daughter to me yet, so we have to wait til he reads a bedtime story and puts her to sleep)
He responded "ok"
I only see him about once a week - but I'd like to see him everyday if I could.
Errr!
He just texted me back saying he has to work tomorrow.... And then after work he was taking his daughter to ChuckECheese (This i knew about, Work I didnt)...
I'm just ready to give up on putting forth the effort in trying to see him and even talk to him... I'm trying my hardest to be patient, but its getting really thin!
I'm going to tell him "I'm going to stop trying to put in the effort in us meeting up. I will let you decide when you can"
However, I don't know if I have the patients to wait on him.
Funny , I text my Caps once in a while and If dont hear back I let it go.
But there was this one time lol I texted my cap and expected a answer from him and when I got no answer at all
I texted him " hi , hello?
And he said "are you being funny? " Whats hi hello??""
I just had to point that out it still cracks me up.

Your above comment is how I feel at times.. I use to get offended but again, I start to remember that I do care that he gets the rest he needs.. My cap tends to overwork himself and barely has downtime... but when he does, I always tell him to get some sleep.. So I get you, but we have to think about the big picture.. It's not us most of the time.. it's them.. & I think they require long recharging sessions when they are not working.. He use to text me from the couch or FaceTime me but he always sounded so tired or looked exhausted so although I was happy to see him/hear from him. I felt bad..
LOL @ his "sitting in a chair' response.. So like them.. They will tell you EXACTLY what they are doing. But it's not detailed or intriguing...
"So if he's doing nothing, why doesnt he ask or make an attempt to try and hangout(!?!?!). Usually I have to, like texting, take the lead on getting him out of the house. Last Friday he took me out on a date to the movies, however, I was the one that had to get the ball rolling for us to meet up."
Uhmm yeah.. About that.. They are more'so "home-bodies" IMO.. So a lot of our time together, I have to suggest.. & if he's free, we do it.. Or he'll say, "I wanna see you.." & I respond, "I wanna see you too.." BUT then, he doesn't follow through.. Like HELLO...?? You wanna see me, MAKE IT HAPPEN.. I honestly think they prefer just being in the house, alone. Nothing against us.. Just how they are.. But like you, You'd think they'd automatically make that "off-time" available for their S/O.. lol.. Or interest.. Uhhh.. Not so much.. So yeah, you'll be doing most of the initiating with outings also.. Unless of course you 2 get further along and move in together...
"Today, instead of asking him if he wanted to hangout, I instead told him that we were."
Yea, that was my mother's suggestion to me when I wanna see him.. You have to tell them.. Don't give them the opportunity to over process the extra shit they have to do as well as spend time with you.. They need direct.. because the way my cap is, if I say, "Can we spend some time this weekend?" he goes.. "Yea.. but then I have to work.. I have to be there at 7 AM and then I won't be able to spend a whole day with you.. I just wanna lay up with you.. Then I'm gonna be all tired.. blah blah blah..".. I find when I say, "I'm coming to see you.." VS "Can I come see you?" His response is simply, Okay cool.. let me know times.. then we end up seeing each other.. It's weird.. lol
Well, I'm in a LDR with my cap so I'd like to see mine daily also BUT with both of our schedules, we have to see each other when we can..
You're lucky! 😉

I don't know if it's just me, but I don't like it when people text me constantly. I feel like I'm being suffocated w/ constant questions of how my day was. Now before I seem like I don't appreciate anything, hear me out. I appreciate it when someone goes out of their way to text me and knowing how I am. I mean, I don't go out as much as I'd like to, so I guess it bothers me when somebody asks me how my day is, and I can't really say much cuz I haven't done anything all day! And sometimes it's like I want my space? I'd prefer to see the person rather than interact w/ my phone so much. I don't know, it just sounds like it's something a Pisces would feel (and I love all you fishes ^_^) I suppose it's typical for some people to feel this way. What about you guys? How do Capricorns feel about texting?
