Posted by AgentP911got it, his remark about lets touch base was after i "shot him down" when he said I think we get on really well! As I didn't feel that I only felt he was interogating me. so I said you sure we get on really well? you were falling asleep.Posted by StrawberryJamPosted by DeadInsideYes I had a feeling he has a lot of secrets too, he asked about how close am I to my family and how often I see my parents, when I turn the question at him. He didn't seem to fond of his own parents. He also have dispute with his brother as his brother was working for him.
there is no red flag, is testing you and he has prob a lot of secret
I just have a feeling that there must be a reason he has no friends and not close to his family.
I was surprised that he thinks we got along really well since our talk was very surface and nothing deep. I couldn't help but asked you really think we did? as he was getting sleepy towards the end. he said only because it's late like 10pm.
he then said lets touch base during the week and see if we wanna do this again. I said ok. Been 4 days haven't heard from him.
I see one red flag with a few potential red flags.
1. He said ‘let’s touch base during the week and see if we wanna do this again’.
He’s not interested. If he was then he’d have directly asked you out for a second date there and then or at least within 24 hours. I wouldn’t worry about it. Sometimes you date people and it’s not a match. It’s not you or him, it just doesn’t match.
I see his remarks about friends and/or his closed approach to dating to be a potential red flag.
For a first date, I don’t expect people to spill their guts but a reasonable level of openness is important to me. It shows they’re genuinely interested in meeting someone and they are willing to share a part of themselves. This is required for any future relationship regardless of who they end up with.
The other potential red flag is the social aspect. You might be more social and that’s important to you. If you chose someone considerably more introverted who doesn’t value or enjoy social occasions then you’ll get frustrated that they don’t want to enjoy that with you.
Frankly, I get the impression this guy might only be luke warm for a relationship anyway. You need to find someone who is available and red hot for a relationship, and who matches with you more.
If this guy bothers to contact you again, and I don’t think he will unless he’s bored, and no one wants to be his gap filler, then I’d suggest not bothering with him and fill your time by dating better prospective partners.
Keep us updated though!

Posted by stillstillwateryes that's how I felt, he has no close family, he is not talking to his brother cos of dispute, he doens't sound fond of his parents. he said he sees his sister a bit more often.Posted by StrawberryJamFrom my experience it's a huge red flag because it shows their abilities at not only creating connections but also maintaining. In his case lack of abilities. The insight and social skills required to maintain friendships would be the basis of maintaining good romantic relationships because it would teach them communication, compromise, vulnerability, give/take etc.
Went on a first date with this Capricorn man and he asked me a lot of questions including what I like to do with friends, where we go and where they live. When I asked what about himself. He goes I don't have many friends. I work from home and at my free time I stay at home, listen to music, watch TV or go out fine dining (by himself)
I found this really odd. At the end of the date he said I think we get on really well! I couldn't help but said you sure? you were falling asleep... He goes only because it's late now and I had 2 drinks.Then he said lets touch base during the week and see if we want to do this again? I said ok. Then he walked me to my cab.
I get that not everyone likes to have a big circle, but surely we all have a friend or 2 that are close? it's quality right? When he said he has no friends everyone are business contacts came to me as a shock.. and possibly red flag?
Ok, so may be he doesn't have "friends" but what about any close family ties? If he's close with family members then it would be less of a red flag by a lot. Also how about his previous romantic relationships?
Also, dating a guy who doesn't have friends to hang out with or to vent to would may be bring more expectation/burden on your relationship.click to expand

Posted by RooSagicorni wasn't disinterest, i was unsure, as he could be emotionally unavailable or like you said socially awkward. If it's the latter he could be a good guy.
Does it matter? It doesn’t sound like you were all that interested in him.
I don’t know - friends or acquaintances? My bf says most people he knows are acquaintances. There are only a couple of close friends. Caps view? Although this sounds like he’s socially awkward.

Posted by StrawberryJamPosted by MalakI get what you are saying, my insta is not just for personal use, it's for sponsored post and content. He doens't need to be there.
They're extremely jealous that's why he wants to see it to check how it looks like, how people react to you, what kind of photos you post, are there other guys interested etc. Mine's insta looks just like that too lol and yes he doesn't go out too. But he does have facebook with quite some photos so I could analyze him a bit more. I know all that sounds confusing at start but with jealousy it will be even more confusing too lol but overall I believe they're good, smart and hard working people which is why I kept contact with mine and fell for him even though I find all that a bit odd to me. About not contacting you I read before they don't really initiate contact much and mine said it by himself that he wanted to talk to me long before he did. Also If I don't contact him first for some time he would ask why cause he expected me to write first lol anyway, even he seems odd, in his own world he isn't is just a normal Cap.If you want throw him some random message to check up on him, how he's been etc or just wait and see if he'll write first
The thing is this guy is an alpha male, would this make difference to his preference on making contact?
We kinda started on the wrong foot, when he called me to arrange for first date I mistaken him as somsone else and was really cold to him, I realized later on so I text him the next day to let him know when am I free. He ignored me for a day then said his phone was playing up and dind't see it until then. he picked a day but no solid time. Then he text me on that day just before noon. I'ts like he was playuing by the book lol he knows it's only acceptable if he confirms plan before noon.click to expand
Posted by RooSagicornlol what did you do to blow him off?Posted by MalakLol sounds familiar 🙂 I blew mine off & he came back looking for me later. Now it’s more him, but I make effort too!Posted by StrawberryJamPosted by MalakI get what you are saying, my insta is not just for personal use, it's for sponsored post and content.

Yes they tend to be alpha males but still expect us to contact them first lol it's kinda weird I must say but they really look for others to talk to them first, actually mine said something like that multiple times but still he will make contact as well, doesn't really wait for me to make first move

Posted by RooSagicornPosted by StrawberryJamWell after the first time we met ( it was fireworks btw), he wanted to see me the next day but then blew me off. I think he got scared or wasn’t sure what he wanted. We texted a bit for a couple of weeks or so & then I got pissed cuz he wasn’t asking me out. So I stopped making effort. Which he didn’t like lol. I ended up inviting him somewhere as my last ditch effort & he was going to go & then didn’t. So I dropped it. Figured it was done. He started liking pics on my FB every couple of weeks. I did nothing. Eventually he reached out & asked if he was ever going to see me again.. I said IF YOU ASK ME OUT! Two months later he asks me out!!!! Lmao. But when he was ready, it was different. He only wanted to see me and made ALL the effort. We were exclusive in 3 weeks lol.Posted by RooSagicornlol what did you do to blow him off?Posted by MalakLol sounds familiar 🙂 I blew mine off & he came back looking for me later.

Posted by AgentP911Yes!!! Caps are likely to commit as any other sign if everything seems right on both sides. They are not slow nor are they insecure or shy when it comes to "the talk" 😂 You are mine, I fell for you, we make it official.Posted by RooSagicornPosted by StrawberryJamWell after the first time we met ( it was fireworks btw), he wanted to see me the next day but then blew me off.

When a man knows what he wants he will go for it. You won’t be in any doubt about their intentions because they will show you. When they’re not ready then you’ll experience hot and cold, indifference, backwards and forwards, and cancellations.click to expand
Posted by MalakI'm Virgo, i have a cap bro only my bro is rooting for him. My bro said he acts the same as this cap. But I find him odd and so does all of my gay guy friends.
Mind if I ask what's your sign?
I get what you mean again cause mine has similar reactions but they're people who need to be understood is what I came to realize.Which is why they don't have much friends usually cause people just find them odd and don't really stick around and they themselves don't bother keeping them either. I think they believe if you're worth the trouble you're stick around and put effort into understanding them

I think the only ppl who get caps are cancers
Look caps are like scorpios
I gave you all the information you need.
1) they love sex
2) they're super focused on work or family they make little time for friendship (that's why they make your ears bleed at work , Bexcuse you're their therapist Bexcuse they're too lazy to keep up their friendships)
3) having a nice life and money is their #1 priority. They might lie and say their family but believe me they're hustling
4) caps need love but they don't think they do so you have to break them down by being consistent and trustworthy
5) even if you don't date this guy be his friend if you like him as a person. The buildup is slow but they're great ppl
6) caps can be boring or stuck why you force them to do things by offering them free stuff.they love free stuff. Want to go to theater buy them the ticket. Concert. Football game etc. They'll want to repeat and offer you back similar things maybe. But like I said they love to be treated. Or get free things. Even if they're wealthy

Posted by StrawberryJamWhy you don't think it was equal effort?
@RooSagicorn@Malak @stillstillwater
I sent him a casual and funny text. he responded right away telling me it's funny and that hes been flat out and how I been and how's my week? We exchanged a few text and he responded really quickly which is completely different to before. I asked whats his the favorite thing he did this week he mentioned about his work... yep that's his favorite...then he asked about mine...
I responded to that and he responded with a lol... so I responded i gotta go have a great night.
Anyway I was bored and put some effort out, the response wasn't an equal effort walk away, no loss.

Posted by StrawberryJamYou guys should have more in common than we and Caps do lol but I think better match would be male Virgo and Female Cap, there are always differences in male and female from each sign and it makes difference in relationships too. Well they're just odd people I guess which takes much understanding and will to understand them. If you have that stick around and get to know him better, if not rather find a better fit for yourself. I'll take myself for example as very persistent when I want something, I have to get it if it's possible in anyway. But Virgos are not like that. I have spent many years with one and we'd ended things up after 6 months of relationship and many many times later if it wasn't for my persistence and efforts to keep that relationship. When he saw the real me he stick to it strongly and doesn't want to let me go but unfortunately after quite some time I realized my feelings have changed and that I have to move on from him. That's a difference between us, Virgos are more prone to let go of things at start then we are, but think Caps do the same too. So think deeply is he the one you really want, if you find it that he is be there for him, if not move on to someone who fits you better.Posted by MalakI'm Virgo, i have a cap bro only my bro is rooting for him.

Posted by CaramelizedCoffeealthough your list is accurate... >_> but I wouldn't go to anything free if I knew 100% i didn't enjoy it. But if it's a first time I'd go if it was free.

Posted by RooSagicornwell I can see he was happy to hear from me as he replied immediately and his tone is much lighter than prior first date. However at the thrid text he wrote lol he wans't making convo or allowing the convo to flow. It's just hard and boring. Even my gay friends are like nah NEXT. only my bro is saying he probably is just laughing at what you said. My brother is 3 days younger than him.Posted by StrawberryJamAhh so impatient lol.

Posted by RooSagicornsweetheart it's not an excuse, yet i do agree he was far better in person. However i can't really ask him out, i was already putting effort in to connect and it was up to him to allow the convo to flow and also ask me out.Posted by StrawberryJamWell if you are going to judge from texting. Mine is like that too, but phone & in person are far different. Ummmm you already knew he was socially awkward, which means it takes time to feel comfortable. Sounds like an excuse to me. Which is fine if you are not interested.Posted by RooSagicornwell I can see he was happy to hear from me as he replied immediately and his tone is much lighter than prior first date.

Posted by AgentP911@RooSagicorn
Is everyone on this thread ignoring THE most important thing?
He didn’t ask OP out for a second date at the end of the first date.
He didn’t ask her out after the first date.
It was four days since the first date and he still hadn’t contacted OP to ask her out again.
OP made contact with the guy first and, despite replying, he still didn’t ask her out for a second date.
If he’s not asking you out, he’s not interested.
It didn’t matter how quickly he responded or how interested you think he seemed via text message. He didn’t, and hasn’t, asked you out. Your friends are right, move on to someone who will ask you out because while you’re seeing something with this guy which isn’t there, you’re missing out on opportunities with guys who do want to date you, who will ask you out again on or after the first date, who will contact you first, who won’t leave you guessing in the dark about his preferences and intentions.

Posted by LittleFairyThis makes no sense whatsoever...why would he even be thinking about introducing someone he just started dating to friends? Why would he lie he has no friends? I got one that said exactly the same thing, he don't have to lie to me for sure cause I can't possibly meet his friends as I'm way too far away for that so no point in lying, they're just probably not that into socializing and it's fine, we're all different people
He has friends he just doesn't want to introduce you.

I got one that said exactly the same thing, he don't have to lie to me for sure cause I can't possibly meet his friends as I'm way too far away for that so no point in lying, they're just probably not that into socializing and it's fine, we're all different people
He has friends he just doesn't want to introduce you.click to expand

Is everyone on this thread ignoring THE most important thing?
He didn’t ask OP out for a second date at the end of the first date.
He didn’t ask her out after the first date.
It was four days since the first date and he still hadn’t contacted OP to ask her out again.
OP made contact with the guy first and, despite replying, he still didn’t ask her out for a second date.
If he’s not asking you out, he’s not interested.
It didn’t matter how quickly he responded or how interested you think he seemed via text message. He didn’t, and hasn’t, asked you out. Your friends are right, move on to someone who will ask you out because while you’re seeing something with this guy which isn’t there, you’re missing out on opportunities with guys who do want to date you, who will ask you out again on or after the first date, who will contact you first, who won’t leave you guessing in the dark about his preferences and intentions.
That's how I felt, I wasn't too comfortable with things he said on first date anyway. I found those flattery a bit manipulative. I was bored and no harm in sending him a text.Yea surely we started on the wrong foot and my respond to his "I think we got along really well" might have came off as interested so my text was there to clear the air.
Since I've done my part he is not taking action it just means it's not meant to be. I have already deleted his number and messages so i won't contact him again.
Like i said you weren’t interested. Well all I’m saying is that is not necessarily true with a Cap. They move slow. It doesn’t mean you wait on him. If you were interested in him, you might have more patience. Or not write him off. It is fine if you don’t, I was just showing you another POV. I’m guessing he didn’t think you were interested in him after your surprise that he thought you got along. He was pleasantly surprised you contacted him. But eh socially awkward lol.
Sounds like you’re more suited for the type that are more aggressive though, or you didn’t feel a connection & it’s not worth it. It’s all good.

Posted by Malakduring the date he tried to extend it big time. I really think this is what made him lose interested. When he said I think we are getting along really well!
Honestly I think you're both too passive and will have hard time with that to get along well. You both need one more active sign to shake you up a little bit lol I'm surrounded by Virgos my entire life, I know them like I know my self. My bff is Virgo and we'r friends for like 17 years or more, my ex is a Virgo and we dated 8 years. Caps I don't know that much and still learning about them but they seem even more passive than Virgos are. You both have hard time showing emotions so how are you going to brake each other's shells? How can you take down those walls you build around yourself when you both refuse to open up? This is when you look into a future more then initial contact. Your natures are similar but it doesn't mean you'll get along well in a relationship. Honestly you don't seem too interested in him, nor does he seem from what is written, see if he contacts you again and how he acts then and if he really is interested he will. They're passive. But not that much to not even put an effort into it. About texting yes they are like that unfortunately, make sit a bit awkward but we can't change them lol
Posted by MalakActually I don't have hard time showing emotions, but he certainly has.. which is something that is not surpringly since he has no friends... if it's meant ot be he will contact me again. Overall I just feel like things are not flowing, so no loss here.

I looked at him and said you sure we are? you look like you are falling asleep.
I wasn't giving him a hard time just that he really was looking tired... and I had doubts of what he was saying...click to expand

How long do you know him in total so far? Honestly I'd take that comment as a bit offensive as well and I'm not Cap lol I think that he meant it when he said it, shouldn't have questioned it that's all. But regardless on that if he's into you he won't lose interest for that sentence 100% I've said much worse to mine at some point but he hasn't given up just like that lol
Anyway, best you can do is let him come to you,if he's interested he will. They tend to go afk some time like that but they come around if they're into youclick to expand

Posted by Malaknope we are strangers, basically he phone me, most man text before phoning but he just phoned and caught me off guard and I was really cold to him as I had him and someone else confused.. he asked to meet right away and I was dissmissive towards him.
Well in that case you don't know much about each other, I thought maybe you were texting for a while, talking more etc so that was your first date after that so meant how long the texting went. The one I dated long ago (that did not turn out well) wasn't too awkward, we went out for some time before we started a relationship but he didn't have problems to ask me out, talk to me etc, in fact we talked a lot.

Posted by RingsOfSaturnwell i reached out to him after 1st date, he responded real quick but didn't ask me out. So I guess it doens't make any difference nowPosted by StrawberryJamSounds like he's gauging your interest level.Posted by Malaknope we are strangers, basically he phone me, most man text before phoning but he just phoned and caught me off guard and I was really cold to him as I had him and someone else confused.. he asked to meet right away and I was dissmissive towards him.

The next day I realized I mistaken him as someone else so I shoot him a text to let him know when am I free next. He waited 24 hrs to text me back and say sat and said his phone was playing up and dind't see it until then (I wasn't buying it)
His text were really cold and then on Sat he text before noon to confirm a time. then 4 hrs later to confirm a place.Apparnety that place is only at the corner of his home. it was a ncie place though.
Anyway since then you know what ahpepend. I was surprise he text back quickly yesterday and more opened. Those means nothing unless he make solid plans

Posted by MalakI remember leaving first date feeling confused as his questions were too much, his questions are legit but too soon and inappropraite to be asked on first date. Plus him being so happy to tell me i think we get along really well, when there wasn't anything emotional exchamged just made met think WTF? how cna he said that? he thinks interogating me means getting along well? plsu he looks sleepy!
Well yeah you're right, you are strangers as it is now so don't expect much opening from his side for some time. Time will show how interested he was really then. On the other hand at some points you sound interested in another not so much. Did you actually like him in the end? I mean looks and overall impression

Posted by RooSagicornLOL didn't intend to, but it just happened. I think this is the first phone number I memorized in like a decade.Posted by StrawberryJamThat’s funny you memorized his phone #. I didn’t mean you should chase him. Just sometimes Caps take awhile to decide and make the dance happen. They are SO freaking slow. That’s all. It is best to not pay attention to them and let them decide. But it doesn’t mean they are not interested. It doesn’t mean you stick around. Just sometimes they come back around, that’s all. Sometimes they are too late because people expect them to function the way you are expecting. This is my only point. I have no idea whether he is interested or not. Or whether he will don’t be surprised if he makes effort later though. That’s allPosted by RooSagicornPosted by StrawberryJamPosted by AgentP911@RooSagicorn

Things are not that black and white , I'm interested but with reservation, I think your POV is valid as he probably wanted to say I enjoyed my time with you and want to do it again. When he quote it that way while he was falling asleep i just couldn't take what he said seriously about we got on really well.
Yes he was pleasanly surprised yet he didn't do anything about meeting again... it's one thing for me to be patient and other thing is chasing him. What I did was to show interest opportunity was presented to him but he ddin't take action.
The funny thing is i memorised his phone number even deleting it doens't work LOL not that i'm writing him off it's becuase I don't see anything good coming out from this as it takes 2 to dance. there's no dance happenign. Even i like to dance with him

Posted by sakuraflowersi did tell him I was sick and thats why I was cold on the call.
I mean ... from his point of view...
First, you were cold and dismissive. Then you told him when you were free (but you didn't explain why you were cold and dismissive). After one date, he says you guys get along well but you obviously didn't think so. So he probably believes that you think that you guys don't get along. Your text was a light-hearted one but one that shows more indifference than anything else, especially given the fact that you were also the one that ended the convo.
I'm not sure how interested he was. But if I was in his shoes, I'd say you're pretty indifferent to him in general, imo.
Posted by Malakyea I'm ok with skip to the point, but some comments he made was too much. Like who really says that on a first date !?
Well that says something, he doesn't waste time. It looked too much to you, to him it looked like let's skip to the point. He said you get along well cause he found you to be interesting as it seems but it didn't got same both sides and maybe he realizes that and backs of? I'm still getting to know them more but one thing I can tell you is they're smart, quick understanding, read between the lines and don't waste their time. To me that's a plus at least. So what is happening in their head is gather as much information as you can then analyze this person to see if we fit well. They won't rush things much tho cause they see no need for that either. They do come of as not very interesting people and have their own sarcastic humor which takes some understanding. Well everything about them takes some understanding lol guess one just likes or doesn't like their vibe. I like cause I'm always attracted to people like them and I'm the one who brings fun into things while I need my significant other to be calmer then me and bring balance. I have a feeling they sometimes think why someone even has interest in them cause they're so passive lol
Posted by RingsOfSaturnyep now you can see why i coudln't help but have my doubts of things he saidPosted by StrawberryJamThat is over the top.

He said things like "You do meditation? I can tell because you have really good vibe and high vibration. Your vibration is so high and it's higher than mine i'm not used ot it and it's giving me a headache. it's good i like it"
"you are really really beautiful you will have good looking children"
I know other capricorns they are quiet but funny and interesting ppl.
this guy doens't seem to be passive, cos he was taking charge for first date. Also I looked up his chart, doesn't appear to be a chart for a homebody or man with no friends... Sun Cap, Moon Aries, Aqua Mercury, Sag Venus, Gemini Mars. He should be an extrovert player LOL

All in all you really need to know eachother more. You both analyze things a lot,don't know who does it more lol but like i said no friends and stay at home sounds exactly like my Cap too. They just like that,I find it perfectly fine. We don't get them and they don't get us outgoing types. In fact he asked me why i go out so much lol but as long as we don't mind choices of one another we can make it work. You really need to know him much more to think anything serious

Posted by RooSagicornI was thinking the same thing 🙂 honestly never thought much about guys after 1 date,if we previously talked a lot for some time and I really liked him when we met then yes,I would think to about him a lot but all the rest wasn't just important people to think about.
Caps are cold when they are not sure about you, or need to protect themselves. If they are comfortable, they are warm. You sure are analyzing a lot after one date. Why even worry about it? Just move on if you’re not interested or get a weird feeling about him.

1 he is alpha type if he is interested he would initiate
2 like you said he is looking for a trophy wife base on the comments he made on my looks and he thinks my kids will be really beautiful
3 totally with you about his emotional unavailability, I feel like talking to him like a brick wall when texting as he never text to do small talk.
For any healthy relationship both partner has to be emotionally available, so I'm not sure if there is any future, so i'm hesitate to reach out to further invest..
however if he does reach out I will know he would at least be a bit invested
