Longtime reader of the boards, have learned a lot of valuable insight on capricorn men from you all. So, my cap and I have dated for 5 months, he lives next door, so we've seen each other every day. As most cap males, he is a man of action, not of words. Through his actions he shows that he loves me, although he has not said the words yet.
So, wouldn't ya know, I just found out I'm pregnant. Happily so, but suddenly terrified to tell my noncommunicative boyfriend. I think he's gonna have the big one..hehe. Sorry, it's not funny, but he's a typical serious male cap. He's 44, a self admitted loner and I'm the first relationship he's had in a long time! He touches my heart, but going with the flow is not necessarily one of his strong suites.
So, guess I'm looking for help in the best way to tell him. I want to tell him that I love him and that I'm pregnant, hand him a book for expectant fathers, then walk away and let him have some time to think.
Kloverfish, Tiki33, I have read your replies and found your insight invaluable if you have anything to add in general about pregnancy and the capricorn male.
Well, the Caps I know dont have children. The one Cap has no desire to have any, the other Cap loves kids, dates women with children, just doesnt have any that are biological. In a situation like this its really not about what the "cap man" is going to do, but more about what any man would do. I would hold off on giving him a book for expectant fathers, just because he's going to be, doesnt mean he wants to be. I asked my one Cap friend and he said the guy will do one of two things. If he loves you and wants a life with you he will offer that to you and the baby. However, if he doesnt see a future with you he will take care of the child as a man should, but dont expect anything else between you and him, i.e. dont think the baby will bring you closer. But that's one POV, at this point you need to tell him and take it from there, especially since it seems you have decided to keep the baby.
