Posted by ShadowcatBecause he hangs out with his friends every weekend. I see him no more than two times a month usually after he gets out of work late at night. He's canceled on me a lot before and I once caught him in a lie. We had plans and he canceled them for some bs excuse. He rescheduled for another day and on that date told me the last time he went drinking was on the day we originally planned our date! I wish I said something, but I let it slide. Like I don't hate him obviously and he is wonderful when we are together.Posted by pinkbird03How do you know that you're not a priority?
Because I know I'm not a priority and he hardly wants to hang out. Only when it's convenient for him. We hardly text either unless I initiate it. I tried to end things twice before because I didn't think he liked me, but he didn't let me. When we are together, it's great.click to expand

Posted by CAPLOCKSAIDAt this point, I agree!!!!Posted by Capri-sunlol geez, your so honest
Yes opposites attract, does not mean they last.click to expand


Posted by ShadowcatI've tried to talk to him before about what kind of relationship I want. And I did see him put in some effort. But how do you handle the detachment of a Venus aqua— Because for awhile I became distant and quiet. But that's not who I am. So the last few days I've been texting a lot. In my mind, I'm thinking this is me. Either you like it or you don't lol. Thinking about ghosting right now though!!! How should I behave??Posted by pinkbird03I think that you should ask him about those two events to clear things up more. Lying is a huge red flag.Posted by ShadowcatBecause he hangs out with his friends every weekend. I see him no more than two times a month usually after he gets out of work late at night.

That being said, the whole distance thing is very typical of Venus in Aquarius. They approach relationships with a detachment and friends are a big thing. But I think that's something you two need to discuss. It seems like a compromise has to happen.

Posted by Capri-sunWhat's mf mean?
I was speaking from the standpoint of my interactions with cancer men.
I wasn't trying to be mean in any way.
The cancers I've experienced lie, flirt, flake alot so I don't take them seriously. And they leave me cold most times.
Aqua venus is a mf....I don't know how people do it.
I think it would've been a good idea to distance yourself & call him on his lie, otherwise he'll continue to do it.
From a female perspective I like to spend time with a person if I'm truly interested in him. Keep in mind, I'm not my male counterpart and I don't hang out with friends much.
I understand the text/phone/communication thing, I'm not big on that either. In person is my preference.
My initial thought is he likes you, possibly not as much as you would like him to. He wouldn't deal with you at all if there wasn't some level of interest.
Feel free to walk away at any point as well, just because a person asks you not to, you still have to make the decision that is in your best interest. If he isn't meeting what it is you are looking for in a relationship and you have communicated these things to him...tough choice sometimes.


Posted by Capri-sunPlease quote the sentence where i said caps are annoying 🙂Posted by SecretAccording to who?
They do, that's why Cancer - Capricorn is a good match.
1st we're annoying, then adorable...so you like annoyingly adorable? 🙂click to expand


Posted by Capri-sunYea I guess I'll just continue to play it out for right now! Thanks for the advice!!!
@OmniVirgoFlirt might have insight to the virgo mars placement.
The gemini could be cause for the distance and hanging with friends maybe...idk not familiar with gem energy.
If you love him and are willing to accept this as who he is then stick it out. Otherwise you can wait to meet someone more compatible with the things you are looking for.
Trust yourself and your intuition. You will be fine either way 🙂

Posted by leowwwYou are absolutely right. But what do you mean he doesn't understand our relationship? Whats he having problems with?
Its hard work.
Protect your heart, try not to invest so much of your heart and feelings ....too fast.
Baby steps your way into it.
And when things get hard, it's not that he doesn't care, he simply does not understand you and you him.
Leo venus and aqua venus, very different needs & views on what relationships are about.

Posted by leowwwOk I will do that probably tomorrow! Thanks!! Ttyl 🙂
@pinkbird03 feel free to pm me, theres a limit to what I wanna share on open forum.

Posted by Capri-sunBut the fact of them being caps were just a coincidence, it's annoying in general the act of texting someone every 10 minutes.Posted by SecretPosted by Capri-sunPlease quote the sentence where i said caps are annoying 🙂Posted by SecretAccording to who?

Wish I could. Thread has been deleted. You didn't say we're annoying, just that receiving text messages every 10 minutes from 2 seperate caps was annoying.
Wait...found it 🙂

Posted by Capri-sun
No capricorn I know is spending that many hours communicating with someone, especially electronically.
We have to work and we live busy lives.
I had 2 cap women texting me every 10 minutes from morning to night. It was very annoying and I was actually surprised coming from a cap.
One of them was even a cap moon...click to expand

Posted by Capri-sunI think you met the immature cancers. Those yes, lie and flirt a lot.

Posted by Capri-sunAgreed. I think in 1000 cancers 3 or 4 are not the same stereotype. So you really need to be very lucky to find that small percentage.Posted by SecretPosted by Capri-sunI think you met the immature cancers. Those yes, lie and flirt a lot.

I agree with flirting a lot. But i used to do that only when i was not in a relationship. And it's not actually flirting, it's using our charm.
When i was much younger i used to lie a lot though... yes guilty... but fortunately i've managed to correct that.
Yes they're all immature imo, even though a couple were well into their 40s and 50s. Come off as players from my perspective too...could be the single thing, butdon't pursue me unless you're taking it seriously and pursuing only me.
Charm and flirting, but I can see you're point about the charm.
click to expand

Posted by Capri-sunIt's been almost 4 full months of actually dating. Not that long. Sometimes it feels a lot longer because we meet only six months ago. That was two months of just casually talking. We didn't meet right away.
I've seen the aqua venus cap sun in if they say they're in.
They still like to communicate everyday. I'm just getting the vibe that he hasn't fully decided he's in yet.
I mean I can understand the friendship part in the initial stages, but if I remember correctly OP is over 6 months in...

@shadowcat is there a time frame where at a certain point you'll want to spend more time together or does your description apply through the duration of the relationship?
Any tips for OP on managing through her situation or better communicating with him? Is there a distinct difference you personally show those who are only friends versus those who you are romantically interested in? Could that explain him asking her to stay?click to expand

Posted by Capri-sunYes I agree. I've honestly been single for five years and I'm the one who leaves after 2 months max if I don't see a future. Well, I see a future with him. He is just about everything I want. But it all comes down to him liking me the same amount. And I obviously don't think he does. But he's also not letting me go. That's where I get confused.

Posted by pinkbird03He 'didn't let you'? Did he hold you down and force you to initiate texts. Take responsibility for your actions.
Because I know I'm not a priority and he hardly wants to hang out. Only when it's convenient for him. We hardly text either unless I initiate it. I tried to end things twice before because I didn't think he liked me, but he didn't let me. When we are together, it's great.

Posted by netpower^^^^^^^
He is controlling the relationship by keeping you off balance. Like a puppeteer, he can pull any string he wants.
You are constantly wondering where you stand. He only meets with you when its convienent. When you meet, you feel happy and cared for but him being out of sight is another story. He is hot and then cold by giving you what you want and then takes it.
The lying, little to no texts are big Red Flags!!!!!
He knows what he is doing and can keep doing it for a very very long time.
Its no your problem for wanting more , he is just the wrong choice. He wont give you what you need.

Posted by pinkbird03I'm going to be a little harsh here but my intentions are good.

Posted by SirB2
I think Cancers will always be needy and clingy when it comes to a Capricorn. No offense i like that but I swear even though i am a regularly moody person, when im around any Cancer I become extra moody and extra emotional so i want to be away from them instead. Then sometimes I like the soft feelings i get from Cancers. It's soooooooo 50-fifty when it comes to Cancer and Cap love match.
I can tell you this thread starter, keep doing what you're doing. If you want it to work then you're the key. Capricorns are stupid. I know, i am one. Confront him and tell him off as most Cancers would(when they get in that mode). Tell him how you feel and what's going on. Dont use detached logic like trying to find the answer(s)on DXP it's not your style or any Cancers style .
Oh, I also have aqua venus and im not like that at all. I like clingy women, i like to be around, i like to do things together. I answer texts all the time(well, tactically). lol..



Posted by BlodmemiLol that's funny. I don't think their combination of cap and aqua is a good thing!!
This is scary how much this has in common with my situation. I feel you, girl.


Posted by Capri-sunHaha thanks! You're right. I shouldn't bottle everything up because it causes me to explode. Now I feel bad because he said he's not good enough for me and he's genuinely sad. I'm such a softie. I'd rather take all the blame so he's not hurt.Posted by pinkbird03Congrats!
My volcano erupted... I called him out on a bunch of things. ?
Not that exploding is a good thing... You should be able to opening communicate with each other without having to hold back your thoughts and feelings.click to expand



Posted by ShadowcatYes and no. It probably is the right choice if he's not going to compromise. But I don't understand why he wouldn't. I wasn't asking for a lot. I was only asking to hang out more and not be a second choice to his friends. But then he tells me we can certainly be friends and hang out. Huh?Posted by pinkbird03Welp. Sorry that I got to this so late. Never got a notification, but I'm glad you were able to come to a decision that felt right for you.
Ended it yesterday. Talked all day today as friends. It was strange in a good way. We were very open with each other about random things. He said we could hangout if I wanted to. Don't know if I will. It was nice to end things this way. But now I need space. I need to move on and this makes me feel depressed. Hopefully it won't last too long. Wondering if this is a cancer thing.click to expand

Posted by ShadowcatThis is how he's been since the very beginning. Always enjoyed his space. He's never disappeared on me. I've given him what he's wanted. He never said he would give me what I wanted. He never said he wouldn't either. I don't know what his moon is because he doesn't know his birth time. I want to continue to talk to him because it's harder to resist right now. But I think space is the best option. What do you think?Posted by pinkbird03Posted by ShadowcatYes and no.

Sorry working working working DX
Did he say that he wouldn't?(I'm Behind on this thread)
Anyhow, I mean it's what I would try to do if I actually cared about the person in question/liked them. Especially if the reason we ended things was less because of characteristics, and more because of nonmalicious actions taken(not making time). Simple differences as opposed to actual distaste, so why not try to keep them in my life(*my reasoning).
When I stop crushing on people, generally speaking I distance myself from them unless there was a level of affection to begin with. Then I just pull them closer. So at the very least, he actually does seem to care. Especially since he didn't immediately pull a disappearing act(something that both Aqua Venuses and Cap suns are known for).
But do whatever you feel is best for YOU.
What's his moon?

Posted by KoniuchaaTrue. I hope it makes him rethink things, but who knows.Posted by pinkbird03Space is the best option. If anything, you can figure out what you really want. The relationship can work with you two, but both people have to compromise. Sounds like so far, he does not want to.


Posted by Capri-sunSounds very confusing! I can't relate to this one bit as I am the complete opposite. How in the world does a person like this love another? It seems like a very big challenge.Posted by pinkbird03
@capri-sun so since he's so detached, do you think a breakup affects him at all?
Yes. I also think it explains his hanging out as friends comment.

Air moon + Venus wow @.@. I envy those with compatible natal charts
@pinkbird03
So yeah he's trying to be rational about this, but detachment doesn't mean that he doesn't care. If he didn't, well he probably wouldn't have offered friendship. He probably is hurt by the breakup, and is trying to find the reasonable solution to this issue. He doesn't want to lose you, but isn't keen on invading your boundaries either. Still he does have emotions, and is still probably trying to process what happened.
