Hey guys! So I know that there are a lot of other posts about the famous cappy disappearance act, but I was wondering what y'all thought of my situation. I've been friends with my cappy for about 4 years now, we met in college and really hit it off. We have both gone in and out of relationships through the years, but have always hinted at being interested in each other. About 7 months ago I reached out to him after a couple months of not speaking with each other, and we began getting really close. In fact, we began texting all day every day up until a couple weeks ago. A couple months ago, I told him I was interested in a romantic relationship with him. He told me he had always been interested in a romantic relationship with me, but that life was too crazy and he couldn't give his all to a relationship so he wanted to wait. It didn't feel like a rejection and he has never been disingenuous with me before, so I took him for his word. I continued as though nothing had changed and we were still friends, and it seemed like everything was fine. A couple weeks ago, I moved an hour away to go to grad school. He kept saying that he was going to make sure that nothing happened to our friendship and that it would be like nothing ever changed. But now, instead of talking everyday he is taking days to reply to text messages. I'm still replying to them when I get them like normal, acting like it isn't bothering me that we suddenly aren't talking. My Leo pride refuses to let me reach out to him during the silence, because it seems like he suddenly isn't interested in talking to me. Is carrying on like normal the right way to handle this? I don't want to seem needy, and I don't want to beg for attention he doesn't want to give. But I'm missing one of my best friends, and I never thought we would be in this situation. Thanks for any advice in advance!

I don't think he's interested in you romantically... sorry to say that.

And it may be he's busy so he can't chat/text with you everyday. Or that he does not actually want to talk to you.

I think you should stop texting him. Don't keep in touch. If he reaches out answer after 5 days.
Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. I have wanted to stop replying, because I don't think he really deserves a reply. But I don't want to overreact and do something I'll regret. But I guess if someone else thinks I should too, maybe I should!

If he doesnt want to be in a relationship then why bother? Leos love love and we are always looking for "the one" but i really just dont think capricorns have what it takes. They are very selfish and they love to play with your head. Oh and half of what they say is false, so full of shit. I've had too many encounters with cap men once you start questioning their word they run...

I swear I've had to remind myself to be patience so much with him it isn't even funny! I feel like I've always considered him to be "the one" or close to it. But it's just been such a long process, I'm starting to lose the will to wait haha

The cap I was dating started acting really funny the past few weeks. I'm blaming it on Mercury retrograde...

But I've noticed that caps will say and act like they like you, but they won't commit if they know they can't give you everything you want or need right now.

I think you're doing the right thing. Remain consistent.
I have totally been wanted to blame the mercury retrograde!! This has pretty much been my thought process on it so far. I'm just waiting it out, but worried I'm waiting for nothing I guess!

Don't wait for him. Move on with your life. He may or may not come back to you. Caps are unpredictable when they do this.

He just texted me saying that his life has been hectic. But he didn't apologize for taking so long to reply, or even ask me how I've been. Its just frustrating, I feel like I care way more than he does. And I really shouldn't, it's just been hard trying to get over him.
Just be his friend but start distancing yourself emotionally, i know how crazy we get when we really want that one persons attention, dont go there and no they will not ask you how your day is or what you've been up to, they just talk about themselves. Yea its hard to get over them but c'mon we've had better experiences with better signs.

Do you know his chart?

I see alot of caps and leos, my cap chased me for months and once you give in things change. Im not sure why they are attracted to us but i wouldn't take it literal.

Yeah like she says! Remain consistent.

But I don't think it has to do with mercury retrograde, I think it has do with the Capricorn nature per se, like she says Caps won't commit to you unless they can give you everything that you want NOW, and right now he's not able of doing that, so he's not doing it. So if you truly are interested, just wait for the situation to arouse. Don't take it personal don't try to push him, give him space, if he's interested he'll reach out to you. Go live your own life and have fun. Caps create bonds through time, persistence and patience.

I'd send him a message once in a while like asking how he's doing and acting really normal.

Do you think I should do that too because the cap I like isn't answering my texts right away and he's been distant so I'm just giving him space- not texting or reaching out to him. Crazy how fast they change their minds. He admitted to liking me and said some really nice things at the beginning of August and now he doesn't seem interested at all.

I've thought about it with my cap and my situation, and I think being consistent is going to be the best thing. For me and my situation it lets me not feel like I'm the reason things fell apart. And if it ends, it's because of him and it was his choice, but at least I made the effort to stay friends. So maybe think about how you want to look back on the situation. But like you said, I wouldn't fully invest my emotions either. I'm going to remain open to other people and other opportunities.

The whiplash of it all is insane!! But hopefully they'll snap out of it! I know with my cap, neither of us were really invested in our phones. So it was completely normal to not get a response for a couple hours, it didn't mean anything other than the other person was busy and away from their phone. How has your cap started to seem like he isn't interested?

Yes, youre handling this well even though it's hard.

Well I started to get emotional on him a couple of times and I know it made him uncomfortable. He was pushing me away after that. I noticed when he'd come over, he wouldn't spend nearly as much time with me even though he was still cuddly. So then he was going to come over to my place the day before I went on vacation for a whole week, but he canceled. He said he was busy with work, but I think he was just being distant. Then we both didn't message each other while I was away and when I did finally text, he was taking an hour to respond to each message definitely not like him. That was Tuesday. Haven't talked to him since.

Part of me thinks all of this- he's just not that interested in me, he can't give me what I really want right now which is a serious relationship, he might feel insecure that I'm not pursuing him the way I once was throughout our whole relationship, he might feel insecure about my vacation

Caps are difficult to read when in love. Some say they change their mind fast, that they are unpredictable, etc. They are not. They just take A LOT of time to create bonds with people, especially the ones they like. I could compare them to Scorps like very scared to open their feelings but with scorpios, you'll know when they like you, you feel the passion instantly but with Caps is another story, they are cold hearted, they don't show it, but that doesn't mean they don't care. But you must feel if there's a connection with this Cap if he already told you that he likes you, maybe he does, but I mean it was at the beginning of August... it's a very short period of time...if he's interested he'll be in touch, remember that capricorn is active energy. Allow him to open, give him time, if you're impatient it is not gonna work. Do your own things, focus on yourself.

We first started hanging out in April. I definitely felt a connection with him as he was the most cuddly guy I've ever dated and he opened up even more to me in a lot of ways recently. But now the coldness is confusing. I'm being very patient. I'm not texting him or bothering him in any way. I just miss him.

OMG, same here. I have dating a Cap since april, and i have felt the a deep connection as well with him, as I have never before, with anyone. he's sweet and protective,I believe in him 100% and the connection is undeniable. But I am also experiencing and dealing with the separation, and it's been REALLY hard. He needs a lot of space, and he always tells me to respect that so I'm trying to get myself together because I think it's worth it. I'm remaining strong not for him but for me. Lessons always come with this type of relationships. So we don't have anything to do, to let it be, let it show it's own curse without any effort and with complete appreciation of where we are standing right now.

Yep. It's difficult to remain so distant if that's not your personality. But it's what they need. There is a good reason for it. I know why my cap is distant. Do you know why yours is distant?

I have dating a Cap since april, and i have felt the a deep connection as well with him, as I have never before, with anyone. he's sweet and protective,I believe in him 100% and the connection is undeniable. But I am also experiencing and dealing with the separation, and it's been REALLY hard. He needs a lot of space, and he always tells me to respect that so I'm trying to get myself together because I think it's worth it. I'm remaining strong not for him but for me. Lessons always come with this type of relationships. So we don't have anything to do, to let it be, let it show it's own curse without any effort and with complete appreciation of where we are standing right now.
Yep. It's difficult to remain so distant if that's not your personality. But it's what they need. There is a good reason for it. I know why my cap is distant. Do you know why yours is distant?

Yes it is not my personality at all, my Venus is in Scorp, and I'm super apprehensive 😢

Yes, work and independent personality... yours?

The cap I was dating started acting really funny the past few weeks. I'm blaming it on Mercury retrograde...

But I've noticed that caps will say and act like they like you, but they won't commit if they know they can't give you everything you want or need right now.

I think you're doing the right thing. Remain consistent.
Yeah like she says! Remain consistent.

But I don't think it has to do with mercury retrograde, I think it has do with the Capricorn nature per se, like she says Caps won't commit to you unless they can give you everything that you want NOW, and right now he's not able of doing that, so he's not doing it. So if you truly are interested, just wait for the situation to arouse. Don't take it personal don't try to push him, give him space, if he's interested he'll reach out to you. Go live your own life and have fun. Caps create bonds through time, persistence and patience.

I'd send him a message once in a while like asking how he's doing and acting really normal.
Do you think I should do that too because the cap I like isn't answering my texts right away and he's been distant so I'm just giving him space- not texting or reaching out to him. Crazy how fast they change their minds. He admitted to liking me and said some really nice things at the beginning of August and now he doesn't seem interested at all.
Caps are difficult to read when in love. Some say they change their mind fast, that they are unpredictable, etc. They are not. They just take A LOT of time to create bonds with people, especially the ones they like. I could compare them to Scorps like very scared to open their feelings but with scorpios, you'll know when they like you, you feel the passion instantly but with Caps is another story, they are cold hearted, they don't show it, but that doesn't mean they don't care. But you must feel if there's a connection with this Cap if he already told you that he likes you, maybe he does, but I mean it was at the beginning of August... it's a very short period of time...if he's interested he'll be in touch, remember that capricorn is active energy. Allow him to open, give him time, if you're impatient it is not gonna work. Do your own things, focus on yourself.
We first started hanging out in April. I definitely felt a connection with him as he was the most cuddly guy I've ever dated and he opened up even more to me in a lot of ways recently. But now the coldness is confusing. I'm being very patient. I'm not texting him or bothering him in any way. I just miss him.

At least it doesn't have anything to do with you. I got emotional a couple of times and it definitely made him uncomfortable. That I know 100% . Im not sure about this next part. So I gave him space. I went on my vacation and didn't message him at all. I knew he felt insecure about my trip. But I didn't want to bother him and if anything I wanted him to write me first. Maybe that backfired on me.

LOL that happened to me too in the third month we were dating, like I got really intense like showing up at his house without any notice and things like that. That scared the hell out of him and told me it was too much and that he needed someone who respected his space, he told me that maybe it was too much for him. That hurt me a lot, I stepped back and I thought it was over. The same week I got a new job and I didn't message him at all, I was actually waiting for him to message me, because I thought he didn't want to do anything with me and my intensity anymore . Two weeks after he messaged me that maybe I didn't want him, that maybe I was interested on someone else because I didn't reach him. And I was like I'm giving you the fucking space you were asking for. And since that everything's been ok, and we communicate a lot. So my advice here is if you already gave him space just ask him how is he doing or something like really "normal" maybe he's just insecure to message you... Depending on his response you'll know if he's still interested on you or not. I think he is.

Hey guys! So I know that there are a lot of other posts about the famous cappy disappearance act, but I was wondering what y'all thought of my situation. I've been friends with my cappy for about 4 years now, we met in college and really hit it off. We have both gone in and out of relationships through the years, but have always hinted at being interested in each other. About 7 months ago I reached out to him after a couple months of not speaking with each other, and we began getting really close. In fact, we began texting all day every day up until a couple weeks ago. A couple months ago, I told him I was interested in a romantic relationship with him. He told me he had always been interested in a romantic relationship with me, but that life was too crazy and he couldn't give his all to a relationship so he wanted to wait. It didn't feel like a rejection and he has never been disingenuous with me before, so I took him for his word. I continued as though nothing had changed and we were still friends, and it seemed like everything was fine. A couple weeks ago, I moved an hour away to go to grad school. He kept saying that he was going to make sure that nothing happened to our friendship and that it would be like nothing ever changed. But now, instead of talking everyday he is taking days to reply to text messages. I'm still replying to them when I get them like normal, acting like it isn't bothering me that we suddenly aren't talking. My Leo pride refuses to let me reach out to him during the silence, because it seems like he suddenly isn't interested in talking to me. Is carrying on like normal the right way to handle this? I don't want to seem needy, and I don't want to beg for attention he doesn't want to give. But I'm missing one of my best friends, and I never thought we would be in this situation. Thanks for any advice in advance!
Why are we as Leos so mesmerized by Capricorns? It's happened to me twice and if you read through the forum it seems to be a regular thing.

I don't know, i see it here a lot too and i never noticed it. Michelle and Barack Obama are Leo and cap, my best friend has an aunt and uncle who are cap and Leo too and she tells me about their problems and its all the same thing. They want each other, gets intense, needs space apart, come back for more, starts all over again. I've attracted them more than once but only fell for one. I even had one try to cheat on his Gemini gf with me but i am so not about that. How was your experience?
