Caps who say theyll call.. But dont!

Why do you guys do this? I heard nothing from the Cappy for five days... I'm not mad at the days that went by without contact, no. I have a life. I'm disappointed because he spoke about hanging out again during our whole first date, then when he dropped me off was making plans again for our next meeting the next day!, and even said he'd definitely text me...

And now he texts me, five days later.. not sure what to do. Maybe ill make him wait two weeks see how he likes it... -____________-#

I always mean to call, but get busy/distracted/lazy/whatever and it slips my mind. I think about it at the most inopportune momemts (5 a.m., 11 p.m., during a meeting at work, etc) then forget.

cap mooner did this to me a lot. Its what ended our relationship. Inconsistency sucks. Once he said he wole up from a dead sleep remembering he blew off a call the day before. Too little, too late. Sucks.

They're either being distracted by a shiny object or plotting to take over the world 😛

Actually, a lot of my best friends are Capricorns, so I can definitely relate. Best thing to do is play the same game back. They'll immediately catch on to what you're up to, but it will still work and they'll secretly despise you for winning... But then they'll love you because that shows you're actually an interesting person. And then it'll keep bugging them and they'll remember more often to talk to you. Vicious cycle.

But that's just my theory... 🙂

Trust me. They don't do it on purpose. They genuinely got wrapped up in some project/ assignment or something. Eventually something at the back of their tiny little minds tells them to call you & they eventually do. Just not when you expect it.

I like this... I messaged him a few hours after he did.. no response.
It doesn't take a lot to send a damn text. So eff him... Ugh.

This is the exact reason I don't date capricorn men, they are very inconsistent with me and it's annoying..I say cut your losses and move on.

LOL@ shiny objects and tiny minds.

Too true, too true...!

Except for Cow Puncher, of course. He is purrrfect. 😉

It's just him doing him lol.

I would do this to my Taurus friend when he'd text. If I was busy or just too tired to go back n forth at that moment then I would wait to text back. That knucklehead gave me a taste of my own medicine, and I didn't like it. It's never intentional, as in to play games or anything silly like that, and it sucks later to realize that you've set the tone for how you are now treated by that person, but ah well...

If he's not giving you the attention you'd like then I agree that's its best to cut him loose.

So he replied. I'm kinda over him.

He's into me yes, but I guess not as much as I'd like him to be.. I mean he doesn't have to spend every waking hour texting or calling or hanging out w/ me... But damn there are other guys dying to be in his shoes and he's not even taking advantage of the fact that I found him so damn appealing!

Kk ignoring him... For a minimum of a week and keeping myself entertained elsewhere... I'll be back in a week to update....

Oh no, no, no girl. I could NEVA call him! Itd feel like Im being too pushy...

Ive never been that way... But look where my relationships are... KAPUT!!
So maybe Im doing something wrong... Hmmm..

Giving me lots to think about..

Though, we only just met on the 13th so its a bit too early to come on strong is it not?

Don't come on too strong, but let him know you're thinking of him. If he responds positively, then great!!!! Keep doing it. If he doesn't, don't. Just to let ya know, if I feel ignored/rejected, I'll back way off until I'm cold to that person eventually.

Agree...keep it light and friendly. Caps like to laugh and I used to send a joke of day whether he responded or not. One day I didn't send it and he texted me to find out what was up...go figure!

^ that's a cute idea 😄




So... He sent me a text this morning @ 10.30 w/ a simple "Lets hangout tonight!" I want to reply and hangout so bad..... Not sure what to do!

And.... I replied. Ugh. Please Lawd don't let me regret this!

This would work for me. I like guys that can make me laugh.

lol!! Interesting thread btw!! I'm dating (well been on one date) a Cappy too! He has started to play games it seems or maybe he is distracted? Who knows! PPPPPSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Haha SagChick these dudes are pretty funny..

So is wants to take me.out tonight, I asked him what is had in mind and all he said was "No plans yet"
The fuck is that supposed to mean! Lol. So I told him to let me know so I can choose what to wear...

And then he told me to send him pics? Lmao.. god he's so wierd.. I sent him a pic of my kitty.and I.napping which he found cute and then a random Meme and he cracked up lol..

I feel like we might have our first kiss tonight.. idk!

I dint want to be pushy but I need to know what were gunna do tonight.. should I just call him? He called me.last.time so it wouldnt be me calling first...

Omg, the plot has thickened.......

Keep us informed PB.

ooOOoooooh eager to know how it turned out?>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Funnily enough my Cap keeps asking for me to send him pics (naughty ones).....Errrmmm I don't think so...well not yet anyway...lol

Make him wait and earn it SagChick!

Yeah, don't send his a@@ no naughty pics. Make him work for whatever it is he wants.

Yeah I refused point blank. He called me last night and asked me again so I said 'NO' quite plainly and he said 'I hate being told No' LOL! So I'm like 'There's a first for everything love'.

The conversation got quite heated and he said something about giving him head so openly!! So I'm like it's tit for tat and he said 'I don't get 'down' like that'. What a cheek! lol

No, but I do 😛 But is it fair for me to dish it out if he doesn't 'get down like that' as he put it-lol

My cappy ex always called when she said she'd call, though she's still as bad as always at getting back at me after a text message or a missed call 😛

I dont criticize her for it, I just take the positive out of it..its always a topic I can use to teaser her and get a laugh out of her 😉

MY CAP MAKES ME SEND HIM NAUGHTY PICS TOO.
WTF.

he ALSO takes forever to text back or contact.
ive accepted that stuffs just on his mind and he's always running around doing things.

i used to send him little things every day, and he said he loved seeing that when he would get home and missed it when i didnt but..
eventually no contact just doesn't really deserve that extra attention on my part.

but like a reg cap, he'll come around i'm sure.
and hopefully not just for pics.. ugh.

Yeah he asked me to send him some but we are not in a relationship nor is he my fuck buddy so... No naughtyness pk my behalf anytime soon!

They gotta feel like they earned it in order for them to value it, yaknow/

Tho all.he said was to send me pics, thank goodness he didn't say dirty or naughty, I would have been greatly disappointed!

Hey PB, I'm a Cap girl and I have to admit, I'm guilty of that as well. 😢 *hangs head in shame* I don't know your Cap man but it's very likely he didn't do that on purpose, maybe he really was busy (although you can't help but wonder what got him busy?).

Well our relationship so far has been going well.. He sees no issues in compromising for my comfort and now I'll have no issues sortakinda compromising for him... We shall see if it lasts as I'm not giving him what you'd call an "easy time" lol..

Communication is not one of Caps' fortes, just because as Virgos we're Mercurians (and therefore communication is important to us) doesnt mean others have this need in the same magnitue too, so stop measuring him to your own Virgoan standards. You either go find yourself a Gemini or a Virgo..or accept the Cap for who he is and have peace with it.

Yeah don't give him an easy ride chick! LOL!

My Cap replies straight away when I message him, literally within 25 seconds-ha!! He is such a gym freak!! I was joking around with him and asked if he picked up women at the gym and he was like 'No, are you nuts, I just work out in the front of the mirror, I don't watch women' *Barfs into my hat* He watches himself in the mirror whilst working out...Bleuuurrrghhhh! Love yourself much? LOL

Lol SC... That's hilarious.

Shaks.. you're right.. I'm learning that I can't always have it go my way.. and he usually responds to me immediately, if not within a few minutes... He invited me over to his house but I declined cus we've only been out once n that would be inappropriate and would have been overwhelmingly awkward lol.

I hope he doesn't hate me for keeping him on his toes, I really like him but know that if he gives up on me then it wasn't meant to be... So far though I'm sure he really likes me..

Well it would be appropriate if all you wanted was to 'get down' 😛 My Cap has been saying he's going to book a hotel room for our 2nd date-lol!! As much as I'd LOVE that (I'm not looking for anything serious) I do have to maintain 'some' class-ha!!

He wouldn't hate you I'm sure but from my experience with this Cap, he said in not so many words that 'the chase is only fun for so long then it just gets a bit boring'. So I don't know whatever you feel is right for you I guess.

What's his Moon in? My Cap has his moon in Leo and Cap rising

I don't know his bday!!
He invited me over again lol..

Well SC, that's a good thing shows he finds you attractive..

Omg.. ,I'm seriously loving this Cap of mine 😄

Tho... He could use better tact! Lol!

@PB.....lol, tact? Do tell.....................

Oooh so he invited you round again, sounds keen!!! Sweet!! So what's your next move, when are you seeing him again?

Haha, well I told him to call me.later.today.. so well see if I'm free or not when he calls..

Omg, so I told him I won't be able to wear heels w/ him (he's only a few inches taller than I am) unless he doesn't mind me.being taller... You know who he said? He was like Oh I don't mind I've got a big package so that kind of thing doesn't bother me...


Hahahaha! Gawd, if he weren't so cute... 😛

HAHHAAHH!!!!!!!!!!! I love that kind of confidence in a man!

I wonder how big his package is..hmmmmmmmmmm *day dreams* On second thoughts I wonder how big my Caps package is *day dreams again* Well I'l' be finding out on Sunday. Whoop whoopp!! I'll be sure to let you know, haha!

Lmfao.. get it girl!

So I have plans this weekend to go to a tattoos & blues convention/expo w/ the Leo (pal that's been on my nuts) but seriously want to cancel in lieu of me getting some good good from hot Mr. Cappy! Lol.. he's been inviting me over for a while...

Buuuuut.....

We were supposed to hang out yesterday but those plans fell thru! He tells me he wants to hangout but never has a plan.. I don't get it?

He's going on ignore and being friend zoned.. just wish he'd make up his mind about what he wants with me. I know that when a man digs you they're more than likely up your ass with texts and phone calls right? Idk what's going on, one minute he's all over me the next he's gone kaput... Maybe were not good as a couple? This kinda gives me hopes to sexing him up w/o pressure haha.

lol@ sexing w/o pressure 😛

What's the deal with him? Maybe he thinks you're too good for him? IDK...He needs to make up his mind...but are Caps known for not being sure as to what they want to do etc? I have my moon in Cap and I'm always indecisive as to where I wana go/what to do but then again that could the Sag in me, hmmmmmm..........

On the first date with my Cap, he didn't have a clue in his mind as to where to take me! Not really good first date impression tbh but what do I care, I just wana bang him eventually-haha!! Anyway we just drove around almost aimlessly (yawn)

Lmao.. he's already begun his little games... I'm not into it so he's going on ignore for a nice while til I've felt he's learned his lesson...

Until then...

Well.. I hope he wasn't lying about his package lol!

@PB, HAHAHA to lying about his package!! He can't be, can he? Surely you're gona see it one day and say 'Is this the package you were saying makes up for me wearing my heels you vertically challenged freak' lol (OK wel not 'actually' say that but you know what I mean) 😛

My Cap hasn't started any real game playing (yet) Oh Elusive RE: They always know what to say, sure bloody!! My Cap can't seem to say anything wrong! lol! I'm sure he'll probably play hard to get once I've slept with him! HA!

He called me early hours of this morning, god knows what I was doing up but anyway he said he was horny and would come and treetrunk me if I wanted, so I was like 'Errrmmm nooo love, not yet' HA! So he was calling me around booty call hours.....interesting....Anyway he went on to say that after we do bang that I can call him anytime and he'll drive round to mine for sexual delight (that's handy) Sex on tap it seems after the 3rd date is out of the way, Ahhhh this is the life! LOL 😄

Ooh I read that wrong but my Cap does have tact funnily enough, I'll wait for him to slip up and report back on that front....lol

You putting him on ignore will not end up in the result you're hoping for - i.e., that he'll learn his lesson - he'll be perfectly content with his space and will just contact you when and if he feels like it. If he realizes you are doing it intentionally your tactic will backfire! He's really not likely to care that he's 'on ignore', but, he'll recognize you're intent as manipulative and he will move on. Unless, of course, his goal is to just get laid... in that case you'll get to see what his 'package' surmounts to and then he'll move on!

Best of luck with YOUR game playing...

I agree with lildol.

Capricorns don't usually play games. But they are smart ( and have an intuition that rivals any water sign) and can see right through you if YOU play games with them. When that happens, things can go either way; he will either behave the way lildol mentioned...or they will decide to play along with YOUR games and beat you at it...all the while making you think you won.
