I just really don't know what to think. I met this great guy on a holiday at new years and we got along really well, spending most of our time together even though we both came with friends. His premade holiday plans involved going to a different place for a few days and then he met back up with me in my home town and took me out for dinner and spent the whole next day with me before he flew out. 3 weeks later he books me a ticket to his country for the weekend. we have a great time, he takes me out, shows me round, we dance and dine, but he leaves to go to work the next morning, i text him when i arrive back home but i don't hear anything back. I get really sad about it so decide to give up on him but then about 3 weeks later he texts me. he doesn't text that often but he has said he want to come back shortly to my hometown and spend the weekend with me. When we are together out in public he holds my hand, puts his arm around me, kisses me across the table.... but then he is so distant when we are not together I really don't know what to think. He has also just come out of a marriage. I guess i'm confused because if all he wanted was sex (the sex is AMAZING)- why would he bother flying me and him across each others countries? surely he can just get a booty call at home - he's a hot, successful guy. Am I just thinking WAY too much into this? please someone give me some insight cos it's doing my head in lol
What is this Cap Male really thinking?

You're thinking too much.
First of all, don't look for this to become a full-fledged relationship. One reason is he just came out of a marriage and that takes time to heal (I've lived this). He is just wanting to date you and have fun with you. You are far enough away that there is less likely a chance that you will want more from him. Secondly, long term relationships don't work because they are not practical. Capricorns are very much the realist and we recognize the impracticality of LTRs. I'm not saying that it couldn't ever become more of a relationship, but the odds are not in that favor.
If you enjoy his company, then see it as that and just have fun. Don't look for more or expect more. Protect yourself and don't go all convincing yourself that there is more than what it is. Date him when he's there or you're there, have fun, enjoy, but don't stop dating other people. No where in this did I say he didn't like you and no where did I say he's using you. I think he enjoys your company. Just realize, he is just starting out on the dating venture and enjoying being single. Just don't go falling in love and turning down other people. You don't lose an opportunity to meet someone who may become the love of your life. Plus, that will keep you from getting all caught up in this.
It might just be a fling to enjoy. It could turn into more. Who knows. Just make sure you keep your options open so you don't get hurt. Keep the right perspective and you'll be fine and this could be fun. Expect too much and it won't be any fun at all.
