Hello fellow Capricorns ... just curious to know if it's all Caps or just me. But when you're in love, does it bring out the best in you or worst? And what about the break up? For me, being in love, in a good relationship my best comes out, which spills over to all parts of my life, but once in a bad relationship or in a breakup well, it just messes me up all over. I can sure act like everything is fine. Keep on working, putting on a fake smile but deep down I'm a wreck. :/

I am one of the lucky few who is as happy inside as outside of a relationship. When I'm in a relationship I feel like "how could I ever have wanted to be single" and when I'm single it's " how could I ever have wanted to be in a relationship." I'm not very experienced in being broken up with, so i can't can't say anything to that effect, but when my relationships have been over, I have been satisfied with that - I don't leave a relationship until I know for sure. When I decide it's closed, it's closed - the agony comes before that, when I try to fight for something that apparently wasn't there.

When people are in love they are happy. Sure this spills over into the rest of your life as in attitude, perspective, outer imagine, etc. Just as when you're in pain or sad.

I am wondering in the kind of love you're referring to is real love or infatuation, aka puppy love. Because when the "shine" of new love wears off, you're still in love but life goes back to normal or on an even keel. The "happiness" of new love is different from the security and stability of established love.
