Confused by a Capricorn male

I'm aquarius female and there is this capricorn male confusing me a bit. We are in the same social circle for some years. I'm 39 and he's 34. He very nice, friendly and handsome. He has been flirting and giving me attention and I was always nice, but maybe a bit aloof since I did not consider him as a potential due to the fact that I felt he's just being nice (I see he's nice to everyone else).So, he been giving me attention/flirting and I just do the same with no expectations.
In the past months, he has been demanding more attention from me. So, I thought to myself why not, he's a sweetheart and I like him, but of course I'm looking for a relationship so I thought I'd take it slow cause I feel he is not ready for a relationship. So I start to give him more attention, tell him I don't mind going out with him, call him when I haven't seen him for a while, etc. But as soon as I give him any attention, he holds back. So i decide I'll just get him out of my mind and then he gets angry and tries to get my attnetion again. Whenever we meet/text, then he tells me how he misses me, etc., but he's not doing more (like asking me out).
I know I should just get him out my mind, but I also like him, even I think we are quite different in many ways.
I'm a bit confused whether he really likes me, or he's just an attention seeker? Any insight?

So they seem to come around right when your ready to give them up. Psychic like. They like to pursue. If you pursue them, it's ok. They'll bite I guess; wouldn't know cause I don't do that but what man wouldn't. But if you want him; leave him alone. Back off. Be a woman. It doesn't matter what they say cause they are some major ass charmers. No one can do it like they can. But talk/text is cheap. He needs to show it or run now before you get sucked it deep.

I never persue. I'm just trying to open the doore in case he's interested. I always seem aloof and give the impression that I'm not interested, that's why I'm really trying to be clear when I like someone.
I'll just let him go. What has irritated me a bit is that he did not occupy my mind in the first place and I had a peace of mind. Now he has managed to get me occupied and I don't really like this.

I'm new to the site...

I am with a capricorn male (I'm pisces) and has been for a while (years). It took a while to get to this point. In the beginning, I was giving all the signs that I was interested. He was flirting and inviting me out. Despite all the signs I would give, he just didn't get it.

I think capricorn males are so out in left field that they don't pick up on stuff like that. You just have to get straight to the point with them, otherwise you would be waiting forever.

Whenever I did get specific and say "hey buddy, this is the deal", he was "really, I didn't know you felt that way, why didn't you tell me" lol.

Of course he is a workaholic and it does create some moments of tension but it passes. I've come to accept that he is tight with money and will always work two jobs.

It takes a lot of patience and I just happen to meet this particular cappy while I was in graduate school, working, and trying to make ends meet on my own. So I did not really think about it and the time just flew by until last year, when I had more free time and wanted more from him.

Good luck!
