Been a while since i've been on here, but now I've got a story.

About two years ago, my friend and his wife introduced me (via a group get together) to one of their single female friends. They had known this girl since college and thought she might be a good match. Alas, I was warned that the gal could be a tough cookie, but she had to get to know her first and then she would be real cool.

To make a long story short, I didn't get all too far. While we said hi whenever I saw her at events my friend hosted, It just seemed that getting to know her was a difficult proposition though we connected via email a little and I got her phone number.

Recently, we connected on Facebook though. The gal's birthday (January 16th) had passed but I saw her friends posting pictures. I sent her a "Happy Belated Birthday" message.

Interestingly enough, she actually replied to my message. She basically said "Thanks, how are you? Oh, if you're in the area, call. We should catch up.". (She lives about 40+ miles away from me. )

We were finally able to meet up last week. She was nothing like I remembered her. She was talkative and we had a good conversation. I was surprised because I had never really talked to the gal at length previously. Even with my best friends, we usually never clicked this early.

So my question is: Is this cappy gal interested? Obviously, while her sun sign is a Cappy, she has other factors (which I don't know all of them for sure).

However, she definitely exhibits a few things: She was very cool to me when I met her initially. She definitely doesn't like to be made fun of. She gave me a little bit of a hard time for my manners when we met last week.

Yet, even though I'm an Aries Sun (Leo Moon, Aquarius Venus, Gemini Mar, Pisces Mercury, forget the others), I appreciate Cappy's a lot and this gal is quite beautiful. I am sensing that I am going to get a major scrub down from the gal. I think we would make a good pair but I guess I'll have to convince the Cappy of that.

Let me know what you guys think.

First... women like confidence. In general, not just cappies. So kick the concern about failure. She'll probably pick up on that.

I'd say let that ballsy aries aggressiveness loose and pursue her. Just be wise about your actions. Women like confidence, but dont be assumptive... BE considerate of us. Of any qualities in a guy, those two stand out the most to me... confidence and consideration.

What you said about having to convince her... Yea I think the general sentiment amongst the cap females here and the ones I know is that we are tough nuts to crack. So unfortunately there is some winning over that has to be done, but I think that quality keeps us real... or just real-ly difficult. We are gaurded creatures and very picky of those we choose to let in. I think we connect with guys on a more mental level first before anything else really. Perhaps more so than women of most other signs. So try the cerebral angle and relate to her interests, but keep it fun and flirty.

...my advice. Take it or leave it. If you take it, I hope it helps!

Thanks for the comments! I don't have any major updates, but here's some additional things that I've been mulling on:

1.
The Cappy lady is (like many Cappys) career driven. She works in the tax industry and puts in 10 to 12 hours a day PLUS weekends lately. Given that work schedule, I never know when she's available to talk. I haven't called her much for that reason and sometimes I wonder if I should bug her more or continue to leave her alone to her work.

2.
On the other hand, while I haven't called much, I just email her (or text occasionally). While she doesn't reply to every email, she surprised me a couple of weeks ago. I was out doing something and she called me. Unfortunately, I didn't have my phone with me so I didn't see the call until later. I called her back and we talked for a few minutes. She called to "apologize" for not responding to my emails! I thought that a bit out of the blue, but appreciated the thought.

That being said, I haven't talked to her since then. Perhaps, with the last weeks of the tax season rolling around, she may be busy and just focusing on work and her immediate friends.

I'm playing this cool because i sense the Cappy lady may just be preoccupied. However, there's a part of me that feels like i should be doing something more. It's just a constant battle. Maybe it's my "Venus in Aqua" fighting my "Moon in Leo". 🙂
