HELP......

Can someone help me to understand a Capicorn Man?

I started talking to a Capicorn Man about 2 months ago. In the beginning it was great he was in constant communication. We finally went out and we clicked instantly, we had a great time. Everything was great for the next few days,he was calling me pet names, then something happened regarding his daughter and everything stopped. He wasn't communicating with me as much, it was as if he wasn't interested anymore. When we talked about it, he said he was still interested just that he had a lot on his mind and he seems to forget a lot of the times. I just saw him a few days ago and everything was good, but his communcating is not there as much. I don't know what do to....

Should I continue to be patient and see what happens or should I just throw in the towel?

Thank you....I will definitely be patient, I just wanted to make sure I was doing the right thing. Again thank you for your advise =)

I don't mean this to hurt your feelings, but I will be direct and honest with you.

You've only been talking to him for two months. He doesn't see you as a girlfriend/significant other yet, just someone he's met and he likes. So, no, he's not going to clue you in on the intimate details of what is going on with his daughter. Plus, you haven't had enough time to establish trust. This is not personal against you, just bad timing.

So, yes, be patient. I don't mean stop your life and wait, but don't give up on him. He is still making an effort to contact you, so rejoice in that. He is definitely still interested. Otherwise, a cap would focus on what we need to and forget the rest.

Just be happy to hear from him when he does contact you. Don't pry. It's okay to ask how things are, but don't push for information. He'll tell you if he wants to, depending on what it is. Keep a positive attitude and be cool and he will appreciate that.

This isn't a "test" but it will tell him about your character and a lot about the type of person you are. So keep that in mind. Sometimes life throws us curves and how you handle that (whether it's yours or his) is a very important thing to know about someone.

Depending on the situation, maybe things will go back to normal, maybe not. Just don't let it hurt you or affect your self esteem. I hope it works out, but if it doesn't just blame it on bad timing and stay friendly. That way, if it doesn't work, he will always remember you fondly as that classy girl.

Thank you for your honesty, I do appreciate it. I am so confused when it comes to him. Like I mentioned he was so communicative with me in the beginning. I started to really like him then bam it all stopped. He mentioned a little to me about what happened to his daughter the other night but again that was very limited. He mentioned he wants to go slow he doesn't want to rush things which is fine with me, but half the time I feel like he isn't interested. Our communication now is very very limited. Do we talk everyday yes but majority of the time its me checking to see how he is doing. He will text me hello through out the day and he does have me call him every morning when I wake up. So I'm thankful for that communication. I'm trying to be patient but I keep thinking if he is interested he would make more of an effort. When I saw him this last week it was nice, actually we got intimate. I thought it might spark a little more but no went back to being the same.

This is my first time dating a Capicorn so I don't really know what to expect. I have read up on the good traits and the bad traits to try to understand him. But me being a virgo I think I am over analyzing things. Everyone is telling me he is just playing with me but I don't feel like he is, I feel like he just has a lot on his mind at the moment (that's what my intuition is telling me).

I need all the advise I can get right now.....Again thank you!!!

Yes, you're over analyzing.

Caps aren't easy. We can be distant and cold. I've been told I'm unreadable. We are often easily misunderstood. It seems like a cool thing he wants you to call him in the mornings. Why don't you tell him to call you instead?

I'll tell you though, if a cap isn't interested then we won't even think about contacting you when something is going on. You'll be the furthest thing on our mind (unless want something from you). Well, I can only speak for myself. But I just mean you want to make sure it's not a just hook up that he wants - because a cap will take that.

My advice is don't get intimate with him again. Make him work for it and right now he's not working hard enough. I don't mean be a cold fish, keep being receptive to him, but just don't give the goodies away for very little effort on his part. Don't accept crumbs then reward him with the good stuff is all I'm saying because it won't ever motivate him to do more. Besides a cap will appreciate what they have to work for more than something they haven't worked for. They want to earn what they get. So, hun, make him earn it!

Meanwhile, keep your options open and don't turn other prospects away. Remember, you're not in a comitted relationship.

Thanks again, your advise is extremely helpful. That's how I view him cold and distant, I am trying to be patient with him. Everytime I want to walk away, I hear a little voice in the back ground saying "patience". When we got intimate it was a spur of the moment, it was not even planned. It was we were in the heat of the moment. After the event (lol) he was very cuddly and attentive with me. I don't see us doing it again anytime soon.

Why would he be so responsive and communicative in the beginning, then just stop cold in his tracks? Is there something I can do to show him that he can trust me? That I will not do him wrong?

Again all your advise is helping!

Yes we do take a while to completely trust but I know for me I give the benefit of the doubt in the begining until something happens then its hard for me to give them the trust.

Oh and I took your advice and asked him to call me this morning and he did =). To be honest I didn't think we was but he did....Made my morning start off on a good note.

I think because I over anazle every thing and I can't control things it makes me feel scattered, LOL...Sucks being a Virgo!

@CoolCap

Thank you for your advice, I appreciate it. I've always been kind of a laid back Virgo, don't want to come across to pushy. I will let my Cap guy have the upper hand to a point. In the beginning he was controlling wanting me to take pics of what I was wearing and where I can and can't go. When I was sick with the flu last month he was calling me every hour and telling what kind of medicine to take or what to eat, even when to take a bath to break my fever. I can't recall a conversation where I might have come across pushy or told him he was wrong. I just noticed that whatever happen with his daughter he did a 180 on me. He says he hasn't changed that he is the same with me but I don't feel it. But again being a virgo we tend to over anazle things and make things bigger then what they are. I give him his space don't tend to bug him as much but I really don't see him making a big effort in the communcating department. For instance Saturday he stated he didn't do nothing all day and yet I got no communication until I initiate it first. It just confusing for me and as a virgo I don't tend to have very much patience.

I did notice in the beginning he was very controlling, but since he pulled back he stopped. He does give his 2 cents on certain things but I tell him he can't control me and he normally laughs. Like this morning I mentioned that i wanted to get a new tattoo and he said "we will discuss it, I want to see the art work first". I laughed and said "well considering that there is no ring on my finger and it is my body I really don't need your permission". But of course I say it not stearnly but lightly. He has mentioned that he does like the way I dress, I don't show to much skin. I am very conservative when it comes to my apparell. There is one thing that he can not stand that I do, when he calls there are times I will say "Hey you", he can't stand the word Hey. When I will accidently say it to him he will hang up and call me back. Could this be the reason he is pulling away? He has told me time and time again that he feels like it is a disrespectful word, even though I don't mean to say it, it just bothers him.

As far as his daughter, I have not met her yet and from what I understand he has not mentioned me to her. Apparently the last relationship that he was in the woman cheated on him and that pissed his daughter off so he wants to take it slow and see where it goes first before mentioning me to her. Which I can totally understand, I have mentioned him to my friends but just in the sense of getting to know someone. I know that they have a very close relationship and I wouldn't change it but it scares me that if she doesn't approve and it goes further that she will make problems.

We did have a discussion a couple of days ago and I mentioned that I felt like I need to pull away. He responded why, I never told you to pull away but do what you feel you need to. I told him that I felt like I was crowding him, he satated he would tell me if you are. Since that conversation his communication has gotten a little better. I just don't want to look to much into it and it goes back to normal.

Again thank you for all your help, I appreciate it!
