I was introduced to a Cappy guy in May and we got on well. We talked and texted each other for two weeks before we went out on a date and at the end of the date, he stuck around and we talked right before he went in and he kissed me. He called me on the drive home and we talked until i made it home safely. The next day, he invited me over to his apartment when he got off from work and we had a blast in each others company. He teased me and playfully picked on me and I did the same. Eventually the playfulness turned into a full on make out session with tons of kissing and hugging. During this time, we spent it getting to know each other with him mainly asking questions about me and him evading my questions when i asked about his personal life. Then, he came out and said specifically what he what looking for. He told me that he wanted us to be friends first and let things flow from there which is cool both me because i am looking for something more meaningful. We talked almost every day, sometimes several texts throughout the day but we barely spent time together because he always claimed he was busy and would be busy until the first week of July. He apologized for his lack of time and asked me to be patient with him. It wouldn't be until almost two weeks later that i see him and again it was all love, hugs and kisses. The day after i saw him, the texts stopped. He barely texts me intially but he responds to my messages. As of today it's been June 28th since we last talked. The last time we did talk I asked him what was up and he said that he's been busy with helping with a retirement party for his mom, he's part of a wedding party, he's still looking for another job (he graduated from college that Sunday before we met), and his present job has him working double shifts. He assured me that he misses me and he still likes me, he's just busy with other things right now. Apparently he must be busy because I can't even leave a voice message when i call because the mailbox is full. My question is, do I just need to stop texting him until he texts me or should i check on him once a week or so? I am not sure as to what to do in this situation because i really like this guy and i don't want to mess this up. I have never dated a Cappy before so all of this is new to me. I'm a Scorpio, btw.
New to Dating a Capricorn Guy and Not Sure
It's pretty annoying at times.

What's the most you ever lost on a coin toss.
Anton... not today, buddy.

It sounds like he has other playmates. He's trawled through your mind - asking you lots of questions about yourself. He's avoided telling you much about himself. He's got you hooked, basically. He will contact you when he feels like it, because he knows he can. He will suddenly have time when he decides to bestow his wonderful-ness on you again.
Stop texting him.
Stop thinking about him.
Then as if by magic, he will reappear. You will think it's all going to be different this time - and then he goes and disappears all over again.
Rinse and repeat.

Im cappy and done this(as a woman). Mainly when theres something wrong. I keep doing these long distance relationships so I can have some solitude When Im with the person its full on. and when Im not with them thats full on. If I were you id write once a week. id sit him down and say its crap not knowing where you are up to. Tell him you dont mind giving space as long as you dont feel like your losing him
When I did its not cos I was cheating it was cos I liked solitude also. if I stopped contact its because I was upset about something. I usually didnt tell them what it was and have it out with them id just let them down gently then skulk away. For example if a man made me feel like hes using me for sex and hes only with me for sex I wouldnt shout at him or argue id just fade out

I agree with every thing you guys have said. My thing is, if there is another girl or if you're not interested be a man and say so. I've pretty much made up his mind for him and taken myself out of this picture. I know that I'm a great catch and this is obviously his loss.
It's not always about having someone else in the picture when it comes to Caps and this type of behavior, but I honestly think you are doing the right thing by moving on.

Yeah it doesnt always mean there is someone else in his life ... but I think cap guys freak out when you start showing too much feelings .. they like taking things slow ... and by slow ... i mean very very very very slow .. if you dont have the patience then save yourself the heartache

Im wondering if there are two kinds of caps. I met my cap and basically hit it off. three months later he asked me to marry him. My cap moved fast. I wonder why some move slow...
I think it can all depend on where they are in life and whether they are ready to settle down or not. It can also depend on the woman, but I think the decision on them wanting to marry and settle down is made first, then they go out and look for "the one." I could be very wrong though, so maybe some others will chime in.
In my experience never assume anything when it comes to a Cap man. He's all about actions moreso than words. Any woman without the patience of a saint might be wise to steer clear or this man will break you down. Not with malicious intent but with his will of iron resolve...he is not going to do, be or give you what you want until he is good and ready. That's just the way it is. Moving forward with one's own plans, dreams and life is the best way to snap a Cap man out of his distance from you and pique the curiosity again. Most are very hard working and ambitious so work being a priority with them is no lie or joke. They mean business when it comes to their money. Many Cap men I find are more drawn to the women who are into themselves and doing their own thing. They like to pursue and can be quite charming and romantic when they are allowed to be "the man" wooing the lady.
My advice would be to let this Cap man come to you. The texting isn't getting desired results for your sense of security so leave those alone for a while. Let him miss and wonder about you for bit and see what happens. If he genuinely likes you as he says then your absence won't go unnoticed for long even if there is a possibility that other females are in the picture somewhere clamoring for his attention too. Trust, those demanding too much Cap man time before he is ready to give it will find themselves talking to crickets.
