Me - Successful, Sun in Cancer and Moon in Capricorn
Her - Elegant, classy, Sun in Capricorn and Moon in Cancer

I think adding her to my life would help me be more successful. We are going on our third date. She never initiates and I need to ask her out all the time, is this a common thing? When I am with her she is full of laughter and happiness, we talk about a ton of things. Is this cappy interested in me? Ask if you need more info~

I think it's the man's role to initiate.

If she's full of happiness and laughter when she's with you, that means she enjoys your company. Just don't push her to move too fast, too soon. Take it slow and steady. Give her time to fall for you.

You got this!
I am in no rush, I want to see whether we work well as a team first. Generally as a Cancer I tend to look at relationships from a very long term perspective.

I think so. I'm very traditional. (I'm older, though). I can't speak for every cap woman, but I like traditional male/female roles with a modern twist such as sharing housework and yardwork, etc.

Idk about intense tradition with all cap women... She might follow typically female gendered aspects of life (i.e. cooking, cleaning, babymaking, etc.) especially with that cancer moon, but don't expect her to be a lap dog with no backbone. She definitely wants to feel as if your relationship is a partnership, not a leader/follower situation.

However- on the scale of things I'm quite young and can't read her mind. It depends on how she was raised and how old she is.
Good luck! She seems to like you.

Interesting. Couple more questions for you:

a) I am 7 years older than her, will that make a difference to her? She is a young woman in her late 20s and I am an older man in his mid 30s with greying hair and all the seriousness of an older person.

b) I don't text everyday and all that, I am too busy for that. I will probably text her like a couple of times a week. Will that get me friendzoned?

The last thing I want is a woman with no sense of her own self, I like good strong women who can set their men straight when they have to. But in saying that, I wouldn't like a situation where she would publicly emasculate me for something. Whatever you want to tell me do it behind closed doors, it has to be between us. Makes sense?

She is in her late 20s and I am about 7 years older than her.

I think Caps are quite likely to date older, so I don't think that'll be an issue. Also Caps need their space so constant texts probably would be a turnoff.
That sounds good. Any specific things you would tell me to avoid doing?
click to expand

If this relationship really gains traction, here are some general pointers:
-Be stable, reliable, and readable. Communicate. I know everyone says this, but communication with a Cap really is key! She doesn't want to have to guess your emotions.
-Be straightforward and honest. Try to avoid any sudden upsets that she isn't prepared for. Surprise really isn't a thing Capricorns prize, haha.
-Actions speak louder than words. Don't necessarily shower her in impractical gifts like jewelry or clothes, but definitely take her out to a nice restaurant every once in a while. We like an occasion to get dressed up for.
-Be loyal. This goes without saying, but Capricorns really treasure their relationships. We have high standards and let very few people in. Damaging her trust once is damaging her trust permanently.
-She may want to settle into the sort of easygoing, sensual, serious, relationship you'd see from a 50+ year old couple. If that bores you then it's probably not the best idea to get involved.
-Maintain your own life outside of the relationship. This also is quite obvious, but she doesn't want to feel as if she's depended on for all social interaction/appreciation. Be ambitious, have your own goals! It makes her feel safer.

Hope this helps!

I am going to zero in on these two things, I am not the type to be jumping from airplanes or going on a 3 day alcohol fueled rock concert or any of those things. I would probably like something calm and relaxed like going to art shows, dinners, social events that sort of thing. You think Caps fit into that sort of a setup? Our first date was an opera (her suggestion), so I take that as a good indicator.

I have my own goals, but I would like us to work towards common goals as a team. This is very important to me, if we work independently on goals in different directions that would pose a problem. Your thoughts?

holy crab it's IC. wb.
How are you doing man? It's been a while.
All is peaceful man, can't complain. After all the grief I gave traditionalists on here, it turns out I actually don't mind the whole "non initiating" thing. If the interest is clear and she's putting out vibes to seduce that is... Good luck with it.

Whatever works, right? What difference does it make who initiates, I personally like the idea of making a woman feel wooed.

you have cap moon and she has cancer moon? too good to be true

it's weird but many caps either go with many years older or younger

i was going to say it's not the greatest that she never initiate (when a cardinal really wants something, we go get it). she suggested an opera for your 1st date? she initiated in her own way.

i am not attracted to talkative man so if a man texts a book that's not attractive. however, my cap bff does long text conversations all the time (yes. that drove me nuts. i'd drop her immediately if she was someone i just met lol). so get to know her as an individual

Age difference shouldn't be a problem. As you spend more time together, you'll have to contact her more often. Not too much too fast, but as the relationship grows, the contact will have to. After a month or so, I expect some contact daily. Whether it's 5 minutes just to touch base or an hour of texting doesn't matter. I need to know he's thinking about me. (Scorpio venus, here).

Yeah, I was pretty surprised too when I drew up her chart. What are the odds of that?

Usually, I got to her with some idea of what we should do and then she will flip it around to something else and we end up doing that. I just think she wants me to ask her and she is essentially going to take care of the rest.

I really don't text anyone much at all, I just wasn't sure how Cap women would take it. If they don't need that sort of attention, it works great for me.

I have known her for 2 years but back then she was seeing someone else. So we do know each other fairly well. I just don't believe in forced awkward conversations for the sake of it, I am happier spending time together in person.
