Posted by incandescentcancerI think it's the man's role to initiate.
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~


Posted by truecapDo y'all make good traditional wives then? If you let me lead, I am going to lead everywhere....Posted by incandescentcancerI think it's the man's role to initiate.

Posted by truecapI 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.
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!

Posted by incandescentcancerI 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.Posted by truecapDo y'all make good traditional wives then?

Posted by incandescentcancerIdk 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.Posted by truecapDo y'all make good traditional wives then?

Posted by truecapInteresting. Couple more questions for you:Posted by incandescentcancerI think so. I'm very traditional. (I'm older, though).

She definitely wants to feel as if your relationship is a partnership, not a leader/follower situation.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?
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.click to expand
She is in her late 20s and I am about 7 years older than her.


Posted by scorpionmoonThat sounds good. Any specific things you would tell me to avoid doing?
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.

Posted by incandescentcancerIf this relationship really gains traction, here are some general pointers:Posted by scorpionmoonThat sounds good. Any specific things you would tell me to avoid doing?

Posted by scorpionmoonI 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.
-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!

Posted by KoniuchaHey! I take offense to that. I am a decent guy 😄
Just don't lead her anywhere bad

Posted by tizianiHow are you doing man? It's been a while.
holy crab it's IC. wb.

Posted by tizianiWhatever works, right? What difference does it make who initiates, I personally like the idea of making a woman feel wooed.Posted by incandescentcancerAll 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.Posted by tizianiHow are you doing man? It's been a while.

Posted by incandescentcancerAge 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).Posted by truecapInteresting.

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?click to expand

Posted by iCloud9I only initiate about 25% of the time.
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

Posted by iCloud9Yeah, I was pretty surprised too when I drew up her chart. What are the odds of that?

Posted by truecapI 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.

Posted by truecapThanks Truecap, sounds like a good idea.
She may be on the same page as you regarding texting. Whyou don't you ask her what her thoughts are on it? You can do it in a conversational way.

Posted by BlackMambaWhy? I thought it was terribly exciting.
Is anybody else bored with this relationship already?


Posted by truecapI genuinely think so too. This girl is solid wife material, we could do amazing things together.
I think it has tons of potential! !

Posted by BlackMambaYeah, I do finance related stuff in NY.Posted by incandescentcancerIDK. You're getting old! So is that how your successful the finance stuff?Posted by BlackMambaWhy? I thought it was terribly exciting.

Posted by iCloud9I don't mind not initiating but it better be good for the price you're putting on it...lol
25% ? that's very precise lol
i didn't initiate in the beginning because i enjoyed being babied lol but i initiated almost all the major milestones, subtle or not lol. i especially dislike when men initiate sex that's a no no lol.

Posted by truecapI should have quoted that post I was referencing
That's ^^ probably why I like you. Old and old fashioned, just like me. Lol!!
Honestly, there needs to be more of us here. We need more maturity on this site.

Posted by BlackMambaI think im just jealous. I want to go to the opera and be wooed.Well, you got to keep your eyes open and find the guy who will enjoy doing those things with you. That's essentially what we all do.

Posted by iCloud9I've initiated some big stuff, subtly and directly, but I don't contact first that often. I guess there's a balance. Lol!Posted by truecap25% ? that's very precise lolPosted by iCloud9I only initiate about 25% of the time.

Posted by iCloud9Was that addressed to me? If so, Cancer men have a great ability to build a sensual mood around you without saying one thing in the form of initiation. We are very good at this stuff, we really don't need to ask.
wha? you don't even need to initiate it how cool is that lol?

Posted by iCloud9This is very interesting....she said that to me on our first date, that I am very likable.
yeah i realized that after i hit sent too fast lol. yes op is very likable.


Posted by AngmodurianAwww...shucks.
@truecap oh gosh you are the woman of choice for an aqua... Traditional & understand us from inside out. I wish there are more women like you 😄
