Would love some lovely Cappy insight on this...

I am a gemini woman (25 yrs. old) who was with a 'super macho' Capricorn man (24 yrs. old) for about a year and a half up until mid-June. We had a slow but progressive courtship as it felt like for every two steps forward, he'd take one step back. Although it was hard, I felt his deep feelings for me despite him pulling away and creating roadblocks. When I sensed him wanting space- I did my thing and appreciated the extra breathing room. I was very supportive of his life path while staying true to myself- He just graduated his with his Associates and is now going for his degree to be an Engineer. I, on the other hand, got unsure of my direction, as my job was afternoons and evenings and we talked about looking toward the future it would be hard to support a family with that life style . So I quit my job and got another great job, but just part time to give me breathing room to figure out what I wanted to do. We were soooo happy and I felt us getting really close to hearing wedding bells.
On my birthday this past June, I left to go back to my home state for my birthday to visit family- when I came back, he was friendly but distant, so I knew something was up. He said he needed space that whole week we checked in but didn't talk. Then at the end of the week, I pinned him down to asked what was up. He said he wasn't ready to commit yet as he has two years left of school. I cried and cried.
I told him, because I had been thinking about it all week, that I was moving back home. He starting bawling and bawling. He told me I didn't have to move back, he just couldn't focus on me right now and needed me to know that. I explained I didn't really have anything going on for me out here anymore since I quit my original job that made me move out there in the first place and since we have been dating a year and a half already, I needed to respect myself and him by giving him space to accomplish what he needs to do and I need breathing room to figure out what I want to do with my life. We talked and cried. He said 'Just give me two years' (when he graduates), I rolled my eyes and he persisted. We ended our talk with a kiss.
Then the next day I get a late night call with him crying exclaiming he didn't know what to do and was unsure that he should let me go (I was leaving in 5 days- I just wanted to get up and go, the gemini way... on to the next venture!!), and through tears said "I just have to pray you won't find another guy..." and "You just don't know what you hav

hello ArdenB14. i got a gemini sister. 6 yrs elder than me. and she is the best friend of mine in my family above all. BUT. i know being in relation with a gemini woman is different. we are different. my sincere advice for you is not to keep too much expectations from this cap man of yours. while he would be enroute to complete degree...his cappy lust would push him to get MS degree...then he would think...why not grab another certification coz life is gettin' shorter and a cap cant never have enough....there are two options for you....either separate your ways....or if u think he is the last man for you on earth...then give him 10 years. he will get back to you so strong and passionate ...like never before....and then u two could marry and have children and a good life....but right now....no good news. he got degree in his mind....even a nuclear bomb wont change his mind...trust me. wishing you luck. cap.

Was he actually expecting you to wait two years until he's ready to commit? If so, then that's pretty unreasonable. Since he's so busy with school then you should do your own thing for awhile. You guys could still keep in touch but he shouldn't be expecting anything.

Sorry I hadn't finished the story I had something I else I had to do (Typical Gemini!! BAHahaha!) Sorry Continued...
"You just don't know what you have until you lose it".. Now, yes- he was really really difficult to get close to, but it felt like the more BS he would try to put me through, the more he actually liked me I figured- I persevered, but I'd let him know if he'd go to far with me for sure. Anyways, I talked him down from his crying and later that night he sent me pictures of us with crying emoticons. I was wondering where this sentimental guy was when we were dating— I guess that's the cappy way I suppose... it always seems best to be unassuming with them... that week he kept coming to me crying saying he's going to miss me. He took me to dinner- we cheered eachother and teared up some more. I saw him the morning I left, and like a movie- we held eachother and cried, he said again,"See you in a couple (years)". Then once I left he wrote a long status update on his facebook on how he felt so blessed to have met me and a true friend is a person who builds a person up to be the best they could be and it's hard to say goodbye... He's been out of the country for the past three weeks and called to check in and say hi and that he missed me..

My question to the Cappys is, Would you promise something like that multiple times if you weren't serious about it? I know Caps can have generous ideas then soon realize that'd be too much and not bring it up again.. but he said that multiple times to me and I'm wondering once he's no longer so emotional that he'd forget what he said.
Granted I AM excited to focus on my life to become financially secure and have a job where I can one day see and love my children as much as I love him- which is unconditionally. My feelings for him made me realize I can love someone selflessly. Which is why I knew I had to let him go right now...

As we hugged and kissed eachother goodbye, he took out his wallet and gave me a picture of a Saint (he's Catholic) that he kept in the front of his wallet and told me to keep it with me as it would protect me. I told him I'd keep it in my wallet too... We both cried.

ahh... such the romantic *swoon*

Caplove: Thanks! I knew it was the respectable and honorable choice even though my heart aches, it's good to show a cappy my strong character (which he sure loooooved to test! 😛).. I always try to respect myself and thankfully being with a cap has taught me PATIENCE and that there is a timing for everything and it is sooo much better when the timing's right.. Us Gems obsess but once we get over someone we're over them... BUT if anyone could win a person back.. it's definitely a CAPRICORN!!

Thaaaaanks! 🙂 He would call me 'His only Sacrament', as in the only good, pure thing in his life- as I would always comfort him, make him laugh (even though sometimes he'd be laughing on the inside- ha!), and he'd say I'm stronger than him and look up to me.

Chyea ya'll CAN be grumpy- as a gem, I loved being the 'jester' to my 'king' hehe...

do your thing ArdenB14!!! Become better at what you do. Gems are sectional ppl. I know you have many hobbies-make them your career. Be assured that your Cap is working on his career. Best Wishes!
