My best friend met a cap guy last week and it was fireworks. I was there when they met at a casual bar. They both had so much in common, same background, same schooling and upbringing, same values and beliefs. They went on two really good dates and planned to go on more.

They’ve been messaging everyday and FaceTiming. He’s been so infatuated with her, blurring our he loves her but she just keeps saying “don’t throw those words around”. He told her he was ready to settle down and didn’t want to play games anymore and he wanted to marry. He’s been completely upfront with his past and his present, telling her there was no one else on the scene. If he wanted to message he would and he doesn’t care for “dating rules and waiting”. He also told his mates about her, they asked for photos and his best friend spoke to her on the phone. He cheekily said to her “my mates approve of you”. He was just really giddy like he won the girl of his dreams. He’s a busy man, works a lot and has more than one job, but this is where it’s starting to look off..

Friday he had plans with mates

Saturday, attended wedding

Sunday, Mother’s Day.

Just as the weekend passed, his effort lacked. Still called her “babe” (he’s not the sleazy type, more in a sweet way)

He messaged Sunday saying he’ll see her later that evening, but nothing.. silence.

Monday silence..

So she messaged good morning, but he didn’t reply. She probed later that evening “really? No reply?” He apologised and said it was a really long day

Today, silence.

I don’t understand if he’s genuinely MIA and will pursue her again or if he’s just ghosting her? How do you know if a cap guy is slowly phasing you out? Will he just cut you off? Or is it safe to assume that he will be back and it was all truthful?

It just seems like it ended prematurely and she didn’t get the chance to let this flourish into a relationship.

How does she get his attention again if she’s not meant to chase him?

He just changed his demeanour so quickly. And while she played it cool and didn’t give him too much of a keen front, she went with it. He was chasing her then just stopped.

The reason why she’s so worried is because she gets ghosted all the time... this has happened so many times to her I don’t know how to console her or give her advice anymore. This has been the first ‘ early relationship’ to be this clear and upfront.. They matched so well and she really wants it to happen. I want to help her but I don’t know how or what advice to give her 😢

Thanks for all your help

Imo, anytime a Cap guy starts with the marriage stuff he's trying to tell a woman what he thinks she wants to hear, to speed up the feels in his favor.

Of course he'd burn out quick on the lies smh. Most likely he'll be back around. I don't see where she should be worried or panicking, he's just not consistent because he's doing too much too soon.

Tell her to keep her guards up with him, or better yet, keep an eye out for someone else.

Thanks so much for your input, I will definitely tell her to be cautious and wait it out
