Typically caps?
Understanding if a Cap is Typically Hungry
The story illustrates a Capricorn's practical and straightforward nature, often associated with being hungry or focused on needs. Capricorns tend to be pragmatic and direct, which may relate to their appetite or focus on goals. However, hunger is not exclusive to Capricorns and varies individually.
I wouldn't do that. I'd get you what you wanted, unless they were out of them.

Yessssss. My dad. >😢He asks me what I want. He finds SOME fault in the shop. He brings what he thinks was "better".
:-) btw , the pastries were delicious, but again, that was HIS favorite, not mine
Maybe , it's there dominance that plays a part at every situation.....

Maybe in his twisted way, he was trying to expose you to something new; something yummy that you might not experience otherwise? That's the only positive I can come up with. Otherwise, what was the point in asking you what you wanted?

So Capricorns are the type to spend their money on you only if they buy what they want to give you?
Im guilty of this unfortunately.

We went for a drive yesterday. Cap says " i'm hungry". Stops at a bakkery. Asks what i want. I say " 2 croissants".
He came back 10 minutes later with 3 pastries.
I say " where are the croissants"
He says " didn't ask for them", " those pastries did look very yummy"
I look in the box and there are 3 pastries in it.
Each one ate 1 pastrie.
the latter he quickly takes out the box and eats it in a few mouthfulsSo, my question. Typically a cap? or?
Either it's a Cap thing or we r dating the same goat ...lol but no lol
That's wat they do

Glad i'm not the only one who has to deal with that sort of things.
Now i know it's a cap thing.
not big of a deal, but he knows if he does such things, he can expect little paybacks( in a funny sort of way) so he knows i'm not " easy". :-)

yes maybe, when we first met last year, he told me he would show me how to "live", how to enjoy ALL the things in life.
Because, i was married for 27 years with ex taurus and spend my life working working and working without enjoying myself....
So maybe, the pastries he bought were part of " the learning" :-)
OP, I think it was him thinking, that the pastries were better than croissants, so he bought you the "better" option
he wanted to treat you
he was not selfish in my opinion, I would liken this situation to:
HIM: what would you like to drink?
YOU: water
HIM: I got you coke/juice/wine (not even thinking about, that what you wanted was really water, because he wanted to give you something more enjoyable, because in his view water is not good enough🙂 )

That's another way of thinking about it and could be true.
I just wanted to know ( yes, i am anylising like all cancers) why he did what he did. Because i wouldn't......

Using his strong Cap observational skills, he saw a fly trapped inside the croissant display or that they had been sitting there awhile and didn't look quite as appetizing. So he made an executive decision and a good time was had by all 🙂

Good point.

Geez, no wonder my mother cap sun/Venus was like that.. Also my father cap moon. 😐I always though it's from their pluto leo of thinking that children will like what THEY liked..
I told my kids, If I cook it, you either eat it or go hungry. 🙂

I'm not THAT bad! lol!
I'm kind of a picky eater, so I always understand if I knew they didn't absolutely like something and I'd try to make something I knew they liked. We did have the rule that you had to at least take one bite of everything on the table.
Sometimes though, I like to try new recipes just for fun. Sometimes it's a winner and sometimes it goes in the trash because no one liked it. Pizza on speed dial! lol!
My exhusband made stew one time and poured beer in it. Ugh!! It tasted AWFUL!

OMFG! ESPECIALLY WITH FOODS!
Sometimes my mother did that to me as she asked with two recipe that I have picked. I did picked A-recipe until slowly she changed to the B-Recipe she wants too..
My father ruined a recipe I followed to cooked as he poored globs of red wines into the spagetti sauce.. it all taste more wine than tomato sauce..
It was annoying. 😐

I have to get my meat in 1 specific store or he won't eat it....he is EXTREMELY picky what he eats.
It's like he has a " nose" for the better foods. I won't taste the differents between 2 peaces of meat that comes from a different store , but he will.
Does that happen with all caps?
I think it is a Cap thing, guiltily. We can be kind of controlling and forceful when we think we know better in any given situation lol. At least it wasn't malicious, he did it out of a misguided attempt to make you happy!
Yes, to all of this. My Cap does all of this. Its part good intentions/dominance/a taste for finer things and being picky. Its annoying, but kinda like OP I've found my crafty ways around the behavior to keep the peace. Usually involves me doing my own thing from time to time.
Probably the croissants cost more...they cheap. I live with a ego manic cappie who's so fricking cheap. Takes other people's money and cries about how broke he is. Makes his wife pay for her feminine products outta her lil money cause they don't directly relate to him. The dude ain't broke and got plenty of money.
He got a speeding ticket awhile back and asked me if I could help pay for half the ticket..cause it's only fair cause he was running an errand for both of us. Who thinks like that? Capricorn mercury does lol
If he asked for croissants and you bought back doughnuts...lol you wouldn't hear the end of it. Double standards. my roommate only does what he wants. I learned you got to plant the seed and let him think he came up with the idea all himself lol he says the only thing that matters in his life is his family and God...yet he's always absent. Only person that matters to him, is him...point blank.
Tho I do like him as a person. The ego thing is insane. We got sun opposed sun. He's always go go go...living in the future and never enjoying his fruits of labor of today. Me I never want to leave my room and relax...creature of comfort.
The past few months he's been on temporarily disability from getting his finger caught in a motor cycle chain. Goes to the emergency room...so stubborn and sure refused to get a second opinion...ended up going to another hospital a week later to get another doctor to do the surgery. Took till he had a bad experience with the first doctor who waited a whole week to see him. Well cause he waited so long...the new doctor had to fuse his knucle together. Relax..quit smoking And keep the finger elevated. He couldn't do it...here we are putting in a new drive way and doing everything but relaxing. Time to go back to the doctor, x Ray showed the fusion failed....so he ended up getting his finger chopped off. If only he knew how to live in the now and not tomorrow. Relax.
End of rant lol needed somewhere to write.

Also, I used to live with a Cap and I told her she could eat the weekly organic produce I ordered online... Then one day she was like," hey we need to talk. I noticed that some of the organic fruits are from another country... Can we make sure they are local?" I was thinking, "wtf, that's my delivery after all. If you don't like it, order your own!"
In the beginning when i cooked dinner and he "looked in a not happy way to the things on the table", i would say " it's that or nothing".
But now, well, i know that he wants the better foods so i ajust.

oh yes, i have my time to time to get him back ( still in a funny way tho).
Last week i confesed to him that i have dun something to him that he doesn't know about.
One day he was making a sandwich for himself. He cut the fat of of a pack of bacon. He puts the bacon on the sandwich and as i was turning myself to the fridge he took 1 of my sandwiches at eat it quickly before i could do anything. When he was putting everything away in the fridge , his sandwiches were left alone.
Instead of eating one of his , i've put all the fat back between his sandwiches.
When he was eating i could barely not eat because i was laughing all the time.
He didn't tasted the fat and ate it all up.
So last week , i confesed what i did.... he could laugh about it but couldn't understand himself that he didn't tasted it.... :-))
So yes, i 'm doing my own thing from time to time :-)
@Gobshite
He is a libra moon
*would have fixed it right away.
I love looking at your elephant DP haha 😄

After my experience with Libra moons, I'm convinced they bring out (and amplify) the worst in any given sun sign.Good luck with that!
Tell me more, i'd like to hear your experience. Is it that bad?
