Male Capricorn Cheaters?

I am definitly not generalizing here, but recently i have been reading a lot about Male Capricorn's and some experiences some very spiteful woman have had with them.

Is it true that Capricorn men need attention and affection all the time? Is it true they are cheaters because of this need/insecurity? I am very curious.

I am thrilled to learn that not all male Capricorn's are like what i have been reading about them. And Genome, you are right that there are "worthless people in any Zodiac sign". I was just curious because i found this pretty extensive blog website dedicated to the male Capricorn and there cheating ways.

I wonder if it matters if a male Capricorn also has a Scorpio moon? I understand Scorpio's to be somewhat secretive and needy.

Again, i am not generatizing - just curious.

Gerome, my comments were only meant to be thought provoking. I agree completely with you, as i am very close to a male Capricorn and have 3 others in my life that are good friends. Sometimes, i suppose i just like to keep my eyes wide open. I appreciate your comments though. You are a smart guy.

"truth that is the truth right now is not always the truth of tomorrow" ... so true Gerome :-)

Eyes wide open is always the best way of "self defense" in life.

"so being cool isn't doing everything that is happening around me, it's knowing what is happening". Indirectly, your statement has reminded me of many facts ... facts that get lost in the translation of life ... not at all related personalities/characteristics of ones Zodiac Sign.

Capricorns are the hardest to learn. They have a thick shell and it does take alot of patients..... I am a very lucky gemini that has gotten the oppertunity to get to know the inside of a cap man... I no it doesnt happen alot or if ever. But I managed to hold on to him.

"being uninspiring lovers, boring, gullable, miserly, and many more indecent things. Then on another site they are caring, loving, freakniques, highly intelligent, and all that."

They can be all the above. (Sorry but its true). In different moods they are different people. And me being a gemini I guess I was interested in learning all of the many different moods.. (Interesting road)...
And like Genome says in a couple adds. They act different around different people....

If you up for a challeng then a cap is the way to go.

It is very hard to get a cap to commit... But once you do you will never have to worry about ANYTHING ever again. Whether it be emotionally, sexually or physically. They are there for you whatever may happen. In my experience when a cap man commits completely he will literally do anything for you to make sure you are happy as long as you return the favous.... And yes you have to show him that you are better then the compitition cause there are gulible when it comes to other women... Its not cheating, it the low self esteam thing... No worries they always come back to there queens.. With open arms and faithfull heads.
If you truely get to see the goats secret self you are a very special and very lucky person, most likly you will love them forever. Me being a gemini it was hard but possible... I caught his attention and I have kept it ever since.... At one point yes he did put his friends and family before me.. But now I come before his friends and family.... You will always feel secure with your cap. You will always feel loved. Even if you are fighting or he is mad at you. He still find ways to let you know that he loves you without saying it. They have an off switch when you piss them off.. Be prepared.... But if you wait it out or go out of your way to make him smile which if he loves you its not hard at all. Then they turn the switch back on....

Caps are very passionate, spontanious, loyal, moody, frustrating, hard working, easy to upset, cuddly, loving, cruwed, say very hurtful things at times, they take alot of time to make big decitions, realisic. and so much more.

But once you see there secret side they are the bes

They are the best friends, lovers, and listeners. They guide in you the right direction. They give great advise. They make you feel safe and well taken care of...

GREAT PEOPLE>: )

Eh. I wouldn't go THAT far. At the end of the day, they are still men.

Really not anything to think deeply about. Just saying that at the end of the day, no one is perfect.

I am not sure how clingy most Capricorn men are, however, I do know a Cap who is in a "committed" relationship. As a matter of fact they recenty purchased a home together. He has been seeing his ex-girlfriend though almost since he and the committed live in began their life together. I also thought Caps didn't cheat so I am a little interested in your take on his behavior.

Hmm... this Cap guy I know is.. well, very very sex-driven.

He admitted sleeping with more women then Cassanova, his last 'official' girlfriend is like 10 years ago and he has been stringing a lot of girls ever since.

There's this girl who lives out of town who he dates (let's call her Z) but he's also dating more than 5 other girls at the same time.

Once Z got mad at him, because our relationship in a social network was 'fiances'.
At that time, we were just playing around and really didn't have any feelings about it.
He asked me to change our relationship, so I did. I changed it to 'friends'.
Z is also in his 'featured friends list' (must I add: featured ex-gf list) and in another social network stated that 'they have dated and are still together.'.

Whenever I tease my cap about 'his gf'... he will always quickly answer
'I don't have a gf." At first, I will challenge his statements by pointing out this and that...and we will usually end up fighting. But now, I really don't care much.
(although as a leo, I am itching to prove I'm right!)

As fate twisted our path, we kinda grew closer and now I'm starting to have feelings more than just friends. He already said that he is attracted to me and likes me... and he sometimes get all jealousy when I talk about another guy.

Once I was so mad at him, I deleted him from my phonebook and all my online social network, but then he texted me and he said that he didn't want me out of his life.
I finally gave in and we started to be friends again. He added me again in one of the social network (where we were 'fiances', and then changed to 'friends') and set our relationship to be 'ex-wife/ex-husband'. I laughed and asked him whats with the ex-'s and he said it just sounded really cool. LOL

Oh, when I said friends I mean just friends. No sex. Pure friends, just talk.
I've been keeping my borders high and tall and he knows that he can't mess up with me.
He keeps flirting and has been saying that he wants to sleep with me, but with all those other girls he's dating, it is just a real turn off.

I don't want to be like one of his 'girls' and I just boldly stated that clear into his face. Actually of course I would loooove to sleep with him.. it's just all those girls and especially Z.

I mean... why doesn't he admit that Z is his girlfriend?
And whats with all those other girls he's dating?
I must say, a guy like him can get any girl he wants really easily.. but.. *sigh*

Caps are c

sorry got cut off there.
my last line was: Caps are cheaters? With a sex drive like that. Maybe so.
*sigh*

Hehehehe.

"It is very hard to get a cap to commit... But once you do you will never have to worry about ANYTHING ever again."

Try telling that to Tiger Woods' wife and kids?

If you believe that, then there is a bridge in Brooklyn that I would like to sell you...

Two words:

Tiger Woods.

And the Capricorn who makes Mike Tyson's physical violence toward women look like amateur night:

Mel Gibson

why do i always see people come and bitch and moan about capricorn men? they are cheaters, they are complicated, they're all a bunch of douches etc etc. newsflas : all people cheat, that includes WOMEN too.


"ZOMGZERZ!11 TIGER WOODS IS A CHEATER! CAPRICORNS CHEAT!!!11"

tiger woods father earl brought unsavory women around his son all the time. he was notorious on tour for doing this. he cheated on his first wife with tiger's mother. i'd say this had a lot more effect than him being born between december 22 and january 20.

mel gibson just has mental issues, but that chick was probably whoring herself out anyways

So I'd say above all things you must be self-assured when with a Capricorn because (and this is just me in my speculation) they aren't the type of person that are looking for someone to complete them. They are a whole person (whether becoming or already there) that's looking for another whole person to share their life with them. I think that's some of the qualities I admire most about the few capricorns I know. They are individuals with a lot of inner strength, even the assholes.

Anyone can cosign?

i co-sign. well sometimes i feel being in love is the only thing missing that i need in my life, so that could be construed as looking for someone to complete them i suppose?

but i can say for sure, when I *am* in love, or thinking i really like you, there is negative one million percent chance I would cheat or even have that thought.

Not read the whole thread but in my experience YES! Capricorns are the only people I have known to be perfectly happy in relationships and still cheat! Obviously not all are this way and maybe its a maturity thing, but looking back when I was at school all the well known cheats were Capricorns, and the girls seemed just as bad.

Just to add my grandad was a Cap he cheated on my grandma on their wedding day!!

I'm really not sure. One of my good female friends is a Cap she was madly in love with a guy (still not over him 5 years later!)and she just couldnt help herself. I've asked her about it but she could never give me a reason.

I would go out to clubs with her and she would ring me the next morning in tears, asking if I would say she had stopped at my house, which I refused to do as I was good friends with her boyfriend. He was a good looking guy treated her well and she was happy with him, yet if another guy showed her some attention she just couldnt say no. Was alwasy random guys too, she never saw them again or got to know them.

He finally found out about what she had been doing, even forgave her and took her back, she stopped going out to prevent it happening but as soon as he went on holiday she did it again!

"Capricorns are the only people I have known to be perfectly happy in relationships and still cheat!"

Nice statement.

If the topic would have been approached in that matter I think I would have looked at it in a different manner.

Why is this?

Why would someone cheat if they were perfectly happy in a relationship? Is it just physical?

perhaps they are not really perfectly happily in love. being content in a relationship isn't the same as being in love. also sadly, i think people settle for people who don't totally do it sexually for em for the convenience of a relationship and may want to satisfy that sexual desire elsewhere. I know I am guilty of just the opposite. Settling for just fulfilling the sexual desire part with someone that does totally do it for me but wasn't into a relationship with me, which is against what I am about.

This is very interesting & intriguing
I wonder if insecurity is the root of this cheating?

I don't think it's insecurity. Capricorn is known as the "Father" of the zodiac, and with it being an earth sign, it also makes Capricorns very universal.

I newer cheated, or never dated really, but I think it boils down to maybe not being completely satisfied. I always say if I can take the humor/personality of this one, the sexuality and sex appeal of that one, mixed with the mind/intelligence of that one, and sensuality of that one etc etc....I'd have the perfect man lol. Caps are just rarely satisfied with many things, relationships included.

Not saying that the women would cheat, because with the men there's a 98.9% they will, but I know how I get when I'm irritated by someone.

I believe it's due to never being able to completely lose themselves in love. They must maintain control of their emotions even when in love. Cheating with someone you don't love is just a way to ensure they never become fully dependent on another human being. Or something like that.

She peg'd it! I've observed the very same thing, It was unbelievable, that's some extra-terrestial behavior LOL but seriously who cheats when there happy with there partner? Well a Cap male will definitely do it, ironically he can be the perfect partner, giving, loving, attentive and then some not exactly sure if it's because he secretly needs more attention, validation than the average person but I'm thinking it has something to do with his behavior with women outside of the relationship, I guess when a woman appears interested and intrigued he can't help but go with it or maybe it's a sense of entitlement to have what he wants...Haven't figured it out yet

I think she's onto something...

I know cheating has this effect were a man isn't fully engaged with his girlfriend or with the other women so basically he's in control of his emotions, he's not dependent on anyone primarily for his emotional needs and that renders him self sufficient and less needy of anyone which makes him feel in control over himself and the women involved....Selfish but eh it what it is.

Maybe it's a dependency issue, fulfulling his own needs so no one can control his life, thus he can concentrate on himself, work, hobbies, family, friends etc without feeling pressured and pulled in many directions.

I agree but thing is, I know of Cap males that were extremely attached to the women they've cheated with. Family will always come first with them, but Caps have voids, or rather, suppressed emotions that need to be released. What he can't release to you, he will go out and release to someone else, and in turn become dependent on her.

My mother dated both a Capricorn and Cancer, and we were talking about their differences one day. They both were extreme cheaters, but I always thought they cheated for opposite reasons. I thought the Capricorn cheated for sexual reasons, and the Cancer cheated for emotional reasons, but she told me it was the other way around. The Capricorn was the emotional cheater, and the Cancer was the one that didn't have as many emotional ties to the other women.

Inana, I think that even if they tell the other woman the things they can't tell the wife or partner, or even do the things they can't do with their partner - it's just a way for them not to feel consumed by one woman.

Elle, it is fear. It must be incredibly scary for any man with the emotional age of 3- 6 years of age, to look in the mirror and see the first hint of a receding hairline or other alarming signs that he is not in fact Peter Pan. Mid life crisis material :-)

Yeah, I see what you mean. I'm sure if they laid it all on one partner she/he probably would no longer want to deal, as it can be too draining, so they release different things to different people..

"why on earth would he do that? he's got a great thing going on at home.

i'm thinking she probably wants to be married, and knowing him, that will never happen again.

i think they are afraid of making that leap in all encompassing love. insecurities or just old fashioned fear?"

It may look like he has a great thing at home to an outsider, but that doesn't mean he feels that way. He's being bold with his attempts too, which is odd imo. I don't think it's fear as much as it's trust, and just again, not being completely satisfied. I don't think a Capricorn would run away from something/someone they believed in 100% .

I know personally, even if I have an ounce of doubt about someone, a inner part of me will not go a step further with that person.

I can believe that cowpuncher, scorpio's IMO become obsessed and loyal until the very end whether good or bad, It all depends on the placements for sure.

I think you hit the bull's eye.

But then again, that also seems to be the rationale that most cheaters use, irregardless of their sign or gender.

Ilyb--thanks for the beautiful explanation regarding Cap's loyalty. I really want to experience that too 🙂 Caps are so unique indeed.
