General questions for me to learn how to be a better friend to my Cappy. 🙂 Discussion is welcome.

Could I rely on a Cap when I am sad? Or will that scare them away?

How often do Caps need to be told some encouraging words?

Do Caps ever fully open up to friends?

Drunk texts:cute or trashy?

Do Caps favor someone's appearance over personality?

When Caps are in their famousas "alone time" mode, what should I do? What should I not do?

Why do Caps worry so much? What about?

How do we let Capricorns know that they are valued friends?

Generally,how can I be a great friend to a Cappy?

A little background, I am a Cancer and my friend a Capricorn. We have been on and off friends for a year. We argued, we had fun, we gave eachother the silent treatment, and now we cant spend 3 days without texting eachother. I stopped being so emotional and mopey, and he started to give me encouraging words. I always find a bright side for him and our friendship is blooming beautifully.
Its very special to me, and I just dont want to ruin it. 😛

Thank you!

1 = Yes, but not if it's always them being there for you and you not understanding when they are sad. We like self-sufficient people.
2 = As much as possible, as long as it's sincere. So Do encourage them, DO NOT praise them incessantly.
3 = I always show parts of myself to certain friends. Other parts to other friends. It helps having friends you can keep apart. Even a Cap needs to vent sometimes and that's a lot safer when you know the other person will never meet.
4 = Depends. I'd say see how he responds when he texts you while you are drunk and you reply. I was invited for a skype call at 2 AM by a friend of mine in another country while she was doing a drinking game with her roommate. That was hilarious. Then again I am a nightcrawler and don't need much sleep.
5 = Personality in the long run. But most of my female friends are various degrees of pretty. I guess the classic men who have female friends applies; He would bang each and everyone of them. Even the fat ones
6 = Tell them you are there if they need you. Check in every now and then. But leave them alone. They don't need to "get out and take their minds of thing'.
7 = We are our own worst critic.
8 = Spending time with or making time for you

1)It will never scare them away but everything has its limit. He will try to cheer you up but if you are habitually sad person it will annoy them

2)We Love complements sometimes but ONLY sincere ones. We can detect insincere compliments easily

3) Never, They will open in parts only if they trust you.

4) Trashy. A BIG BIG turn-off

5) Appearance matters but not at the cost of personality. Personality is first and foremost

6) Just show them that you are always with them whenever they need and leave them alone. Let them celebrate their alone time alone. They will come back to you when they will feel like it

7)About Everything : Money, Love, Future etc etc

8) Show it practically not by words. Always be there when they need you. be thoughtful be considerate

9) Show them that you are an honest and faithful friend and you have them for life. For us fidelity Holds great importance in relations. Its all or nothing

Based on my experience with Cappy/Aqua:

1). Yes, but their way of cheering up is not the usual "hope things will get better" verbal reassurances, it's more action based. However, they do have high standards so I do not feel comfortable going to them to ask for stuff that I can do myself if possible. They just give off a vibe that they expect you to do it unless you physically cannot or there's really no other option.

2). They need it consistently, but not overly emotional about it. A simple "Job well done", or "You make me happy" will do.

3). Only on very rare occasions. They certainly WILL choose who to open up to, and not one is immune to their criticism, not even family.

4). Mine drunk texts me a lot. However, if I'm out with friends and text him, he'll get suspicious so don't do this.

5) No, I would like to think they do not. Short term...yes probably, my Cap talks about girls that hit on him and how they have "fuckable bodies, but too young, or not enough". Long term, I think they need a constant challenge and someone to call them on their bullshit.

6) Mine is in the "alone mode" right now. Over the weekend he asked me to move in with him. I said let's wait until next year when we date. He went quiet. I asked him if he was ok and he said yes but was mulling over things such as, if he would be able to handle me sexually and make me happy. I asked him what his ideal dream life would be with me. He hasn't answered. What to do? I'm going to leave him alone for another day. That makes 2. In the meantime, you should just go about your life and rock it!

7) They worry about finances, work, building networks and relationships, etc. I assume*

8) Pay attention to the details. Birthdays are also a big deal I think.

9)Listen to them vent once in a while, and make them laugh! Criticize them when it's necessary, they won't be mad, actually they will appreciate it.
