Update to this...again, throwing me for a total loop.

I have texted the Cap a couple times randomly just reaching out in an attempt to let him know I still care and think about him. The first time he just responded with "ok Ashley" and the second time (last week) he never responded so I deleted his number and that was the end of it for me. I felt good knowing I made sure he knew how I felt and that was good enough for me.

Anyway this past Saturday at like 3am (safe to assume he was drinking which is the only time he was ever super honest and open and vulnerable with me) he texts me and says "I've been wanting to call you and have you meet me on my lunch break at night buy my breaks haven't been that long. We'll catch up soon. I get back Monday."

And then this is the strange part, he sends a selfie with it! Now this Cap guy is very manly and has never sent me a selfie in his life, nor could I ever have imagined him taking one. I told him ok and that he looked great and his hair was longer and he said "yeah I just wanted to make sure it's still growing" (??) and then said "that's me tonight."

And that was it.

I don't know if my texts finally melted his ice wall a little or if he was just drunk and immediately regretted texting me but I will literally never understand this man,.

So simple, He is into you but afraid of something, he is in fear on something beyond his control. The feeling. He needs you to be more aggressive. Do that, only towards Capricorn. You will see how he got relax with you, a change that you wanted probably.

Ran into Cap again last weekend, he was with friends but invited me to come sit with them which I did. Was sort of like I was just one of the guys, UNTIL another dude came up and asked if I was Cap's gf and I said "no we're just friends" and the dude then asked me if I wanted to be on his shuffle board team with his friend and his brother so I said yes and walked over to play shuffle board. Then one of Caps' work friends showed up and started flirting with me, etc etc.

Cap didn't show TOO much jealousy (other than staring) until a couple hours later when he and his friends decided to go somewhere else. He asked me if I wanted to come with them and I said I was actually going to stay. He and his friends then ended up staying awhile longer and one of his friends he came with then approached me and asked if I was going with them and I said again that I was just gonna stay but for them to have a good night and it was nice to see them. And his friend says "I really think you should come with us..." and I said "why?" and he says "for Brandon..." I'm like "for Brandon?! Brandon doesn't like me like that, where have you been?" and he says "You are very mistaken."

I stayed and later Cap texted me that he was coming back downtown (where I was)...I didn't see his text until later and he ended up just going home, but it's just funny how men operate. 🙂

Idk man.. how old is he? Shy or not, it seems he would give some sort of direct indication of romantic interest himself instead of relying solely on his friends.

I could be wrong though.
I agree and that's why I'm not taking any of it seriously at all.

HOWEVER, I was just doing some work from home and my WiFi went out so I texted him (he lives by me) to see if I could use his cus I knew he would be home and I went over there real quick and I was working in his living room for a bit and he came at sat by me on the couch and I said sorry am I crowding you with all my stuff and he said and I quote "no...I wish you were closer, I kinda want to hold you."

WHAT. Not only did he say something somewhat sweet, but it was also really fucking intimate sounding. Nothing happened for the record.

He's 31. Mature in some ways, immature in others just like the rest of us.

I am pretty sure you don't understand about Caps from what you said. Oh well, if you never try to find out, can't put the blame on ya.

He is not relying solely on his friends. He never will, is their friends who knew him, trying to help.

Cap will not give direct romantic interest, when he is not sure how u felt, afterall both of you just reach "oh, we are just friend" awkward situation.

Thats the thing. - i dont know what it was. I like him, i thought he liked me. He told people we were dating but never officially asked me out. I would hear about it from other people, same as this guy is doing to the OP.
He has no idea what to say with you.

We talked and hung out and talked; just not about that. I don't think it was that he didn't know what to say.

True. They don't like rejection and aren't gonna go all out there. My Caps friend was speaking on his behalf this week about me when he was feeling insecure about us. Kinda reminded me of the same situation..but we are already together. And I am super assertive so idgaf what his friend says lol

Gemini OP, I have had a Capricorn in love with me for 8 years. What's up with this dude? He does all the pursuing, he still texts every morning, he waits like a puppy dog until I want to see him. When I do let him come over he is very excited, happy, and full of warmth. Leo moon.

When I turned my attention to him and gave in a little bit, he turned to ice. I blew him off again and treated him how i really feel (ambivalent) He has once again resorted to his pursuit, always wanting to be over; always taking me out, always complimenting, he'll cook dinner, he texts regularly. It's quite annoying. He said he likes my drive; he likes that I won't stop until I reach the top. He loves my ambition and my Benz. I threw his tired boring, dull ass out and he got another woman who lived with him in less than 2 months.

From my understanding she cooked, cleaned, sexed him up, had a bigger bootie, and real estate. However she complained to mutual friends that he was treating her just like you are describing how this man is treating you. When he enrolled in real estate school I decided I wanted him back, so i called him crying telling him i missed him and i wanted him to come home. I told him to call me when he's out of that situation. 60 days later he was back at home with me, wagging his tail and loving every moment of my dismissive busy ways. I don't quite know what this Capricorn is so love with me. He said "Is there anything I can do to show you how I feel?" I rarely give it up too. He is near perfect, he's been the only sign that has kept me around for 8 years. He is so slick i didn't even realize I was caught.

Your story gives this slight sense of hope, that I just cannot quite explain 🙂

Another random update. Cap has been initiating texts quite a bit and yesterday he was texting me and we were talking about movies and giving recommendations and I had asked him about these two movies and he said one of t hem was good and I said cool I'll check that one out and he says "well whichever movie you decide on, let me know and I'll come join you" and I just kinda breezed past that comment and later he asked how the movie was and I told him it was kind of scary and he said "well you can come stay over here and I'll protect you."

So now I'm starting to remember how he used to make me feel and it seems kinda clear that he's just wanting to get laid and he knows it's comfortable with me (aka he probably doesn't want to put in effort elsewhere). I seriously doubt the friendship I was holding out for with him will work.

A lot of cap men tend to behave like an ass because their ego is really fragile imo. I seem to get them well and know their game.

Also to OP, caps tend to see things in black and white and the OP is seemingly more flexible in thinking. That's probably why he thinks you're unsatisfactory to him.

They tend to believe you have to submit yourself to him or something similar. They really hate people or situations they have no control over

In that aspect I believe leebs are more suitable for cap men. This is iust what I can observe in my experience

Were you with a female friend or male friend when you seen him at the bar? I’m glad you told him you needed some time to be his friend. Capricorn men can be tricky when it comes down to having a friendship with a woman they had intimacy with. Sometimes him saying let’s be friends mean they want to continue you see you with no strings attached.
A male friend...but I was trying to make it clear I was wanting to be around my Cap and not this male friend.

I def think he just wanted to have his cake and eat it too. Haven't spoken to him since a few days after I ran into him (been a couple weeks now). He hasn't contacted me and I haven't contacted him.

Sometimes caps like to test you and do exactly what he did to you. Next time you see him, ignore him, they hate that 😉 Don't text him anymore either. HE may come back if you just live your life and ignore him, never chase him. If not, you are beautiful and anyone would be happy to be with you, I am sure :-)
Thank you!

A few days after the run-in we were just making small talk and I said "hope you're having a good week" and he said "yeah just busy with work, hope you're having a good week too!" and I said "thank you" and I haven't spoken to him since...been like 2 weeks and that's an abnormally long time for us not to speak (other than when things first ended).

Not sure if he will ever reach out, but by now I'm moving on with bigger and better. Miss him tons though.

Libras are so wishy washy though!

It really summarizes it when you say "he thinks you're unsatisfactory to him"....regardless of WHY, that's exactly how he made me feel.

The friendship had the potential to be mutually beneficial, but neither parties seemed to want to adapt.

Haha another update...

Hadn't talked to Cap since I saw him last month...but I decided to text him because I'm leaving the country in a couple weeks for a month or so and I just wanted to reach out. Long story short he responded immediately and told me he was just about to watch The Revenant and get food and asked if I wanted to join him so I did. He was super sweet, kissing my forehead, telling me he had missed me and hadn't contacted me because he thought I wanted space. He was saying how he went to this museum and was thinking about me the whole time, said he missed holding my hand, that I was so comfortable to be with and that he hated how many misunderstandings we had in the past. I told him "I'm leaving in a couple weeks so I'm really glad I got to see you" and he said "yeah, May 18th right?" I was like wtf I don't even remember telling him when I was leaving so it must have been well over a month ago and he remembered it.

I totally feel myself getting sucked into his spell again haha. It's funny because on this website (thesecretlanguage.com) our relationship compatibility title is "Moth and Flame"....me being the moth and him being the flame. So, so true. So, so dangerous.
