Confusing Capricorn Behavior

Hi! I'm new to the Capricorn board. Two of my close female friends are actually Cappys, but I can honestly say that I've never really known any Capricorn guys.

I have had a crush from afar on a guy I recently found out was a Capricorn. He's a bartender at one of the local bars where everyone pretty much knows everyone. I've only lived in the neighborhood for about a year, but a good friend of mine has lived here her whole life and we frequent the bars together often (her brother owns two of them, including the one the aforementioned Cappy works at).

Anyway, me and him have crossed paths just by knowing the same people but weren't introduced until recently. I'm a Leo, so I'm naturally flirtatious and social, even more so when I've had a few drinks. So long story short, my friend and I posted up at the bar when he was working and I let him know that I was interested. I told him I liked him and he said he liked me too. He also told my gf that he liked me as well.

We texted after that and I actually saw him again on Super Bowl Sunday. He kept telling me that I should find a day to hang out with him when he's not working and I said I'll be off until Wednesday so we could try to figure something out this week.

We parted ways, but I told him to text me/keep in touch and he said he would. I texted him when I got home and nothing that night or at all today. Is this typical of Cappy behavior? Act interested and then kind of disappear? I've browsed around the site and I see that yes, they can disappear, but this early on?

I just find it kind of weird that he wouldn't respond, but eh, who knows. Any insight here would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Well, caps are traditional, so perhaps he felt like you are chasing him?

Don't try to hard, that's a turn off. Caps like to work for what they get, they like the chase and challenge. My advice is not to text him anymore or say anything else about you liking him. Don't show up where he is for awhile, let him wonder where you've gone off to. Then, after several weeks, put yourself in his proximity, but not where it looks like you did it on purpose, and see what happens. But, don't let it be obvious that you like him.

If he steps up, then great. If he doesn't, then he's not really interested.

There is also the possibility that he was just being nice and by saying he likes you, might mean he likes you, but not like that. Hard to say because sometimes when caps like people, we act like we don't because caps can be shy or timid around people we like.

Bottom line though, is if he wants you, he will go for it. Caps have no problem going after something they want.

Thanks for the input trucap!

several weeks? wth lol

If that amount of time has gone by, show up at the bar with a guy that pursued and showed more instant appreciation for you, have a great time, and don't forget to leave a good tip 😉

Well, maybe he wondered about her and will be happy to see her. 🙂

Haha 😉 Well, my natural inclination is to back off once I reach out and there's no response. I'll remain cordial/nonchalant when I see him since we're in the same circle (even if he never reaches out again), but I definitely wouldn't be waiting around for him.

Thanks guys, will keep you posted!

I guess it sounds cliche, but the best thing anyone can do is just be themselves and hope the person they're interested in likes them for who they are.
