Dear Caps, What hurts your ego the most?

From a relationship / friendship perspective, what hurts your ego the most?

Any examples?

Any examples?

If my girlfriend thinks I can't handle myself financially, that would hurt my ego. If a friend thinks I am cheap, that would hurt my ego.

I think we like for our partners, or even people that are interested in us to always have our backs.

Not that a person has to come to our defense, but if you do happen to jump in the middle of something and side with someone else, that can be a blow to the ego.

But lemme guess, you are going to use this information against a cap?

Nothing, I don't have it anymore. Thanks to my Pisces moon who Soften my Capricorn sun.

Though I feel very sorry for my Pisces moon who must feel all the pain a Capricorn sun must bear.

I know exactly someone like you, he is at peace with himself. I always wonder how he does it, its hard to understand especially for someone like me with Leo & Taurus struggle going on inside day & night.

But you guys know how to give back Subtly. 😉

crazysioux, Completely agree, that will make any Cap go mad cuz they always walk the talk. But will that hurt your ego?

lnana04, What if you are siding with the other person because you think they are right? Justice over friendship?

people should be able to agree that differences in opinion are just that - don't push it /gloat like 'we're right and you're wrong', just be humble about it and you'd better have a lot of logic to back it up - talk it out with her and don't be egotistical because in the end, she may prove to you that she might be right. This is called "communication".

"because in the end, she may prove to you that she might be right"

Looks like you have a lot of experience with Caps ?

Being told your lazy and unmotivated.

You are cancer, not cap

Picking the wrong friend or significant other. Usually we're great judges of character, but (especially for sig others) when we have to accept that they didn't have our best interests at heart or were full of talk but no walk, that hurts.

True, all the Cap women I know have many male friends, a zone between friendship and lover - thing is you don't realize you are in that zone till it's too late.

This is where they test and re-test everyone if they qualify to be that special someone. The problem is if you are one of the guys she is testing, and if you find out there are other guys like you, it pisses you off.

Don't know if it's different for Cap males but speaking for me, I don't have many females friends. My circle is pretty small regardless of gender, but if I'm interested in a woman more than being a friend and she doesn't reciprocate, it hurts me too much to just have her around as a platonic friend.

Since we talking about the ego

Being compared to an ex or other female which is clearly no where near me but the other person compares me anyways because they are too stupid to see it. NEXT

Giving away extra attention to another female. I demand that my partner doesn‘t feed other womens thirst for attention. I‘m not only number one - I‘m the only one.

Wow. That is wonderfully put. This really does hurt the Ego.

I have done exactly this with a cap, now I wish I knew this and didn't do it. The cap caught me red handed checking out another girl and was making fun of me for doing it...

An inability to match talk with walk. The bigger and blacker that gulf between your talk and you walk gets, the more likely I'm going to lose my shit and confront your ass over it. If it becomes a habit, eventually I'll just gonna point to a spot on the floor behind you and say, "There. You dropped your cognitive dissonance," and run from you like Mr. Bean ...

This is so true 😄 made me laugh...

hehe i was with the same profile pic, Bojack is love

My Cap mother's ego could never stand being told she was in the wrong

Can you believe that ?

Lol

To be exploited would be my guess.

What would hurt my ego is if you promised me something, but than never gone through with it. I observe a lot, remember a lot and I listen so if you can't match your words with your actions, not good. Hate lying and shady behavior, knowing that you deliberatly chose someone else over me that would be big nono as well.
