Anyone in relationship or has been with a capricorn man?

I have fallen badly for a capricorn man, still early days (few months) but I have never felt this way before!

I have been feeling a little lost and at times not knowing where we are heading despite us talking a lot about being together and wanting the same thing..... But I have begun to notice a patten in his behavior

Things seem to go well and we make progress, take a step forward in our relationship then suddenly he almost does the ignore/avoiding on me for usually around a week, in this time I only hear from him every few days and it's alway just a polite text to let me know he is still about or it's a sorry text to say sorry haven't been in contact

Then suddenly he appears back we have a chat, we both want the same and we take a step forward again!

Now you can imagine when this happens I think "what the hell is going on" but know I have come across online information about caoricorns and all the traits are him to a tee!

Just wondered if anyone else has experienced this and how they dealt with it

I'm a Capricorn and I'm not a narcissist. It am I? Shit.

OP, I've been married to a 'Capricorn ' man for over 40yrs. If anything his most annoying trait is his predictability. He can be distant at times. But on the whole, he's lovely. Very unpretentious. Astrolgy is a load of c**p. Its the man!

ALaughAMinute · 22/11/2015 15:24

If he's a twat, he's a twat! it won't be because he's a Capricorn. Get rid.

FurryDogMother · 22/11/2015 15:29

Another one married to a Capricorn here. He's lovely - the only annoying thing about him is that he has a birthday so close to Xmas :) Thinking about it, Jesus was a Capricorn (allegedly!). Does your DP think he's God?

firesidechat · 22/11/2015 15:31

I don't even know what my husband's star sign is after 30 years.

It's a load of superstitious codswallop.

I dated a Capricorn. He was a dick but I don't blame him, if his mother had crossed her legs a few more weeks he'd have been something else. Probably still would have a been a dick though.....

"Jesus was a Capricorn"

Best response on MN, ever.

rockabillyruby82 · 22/11/2015 19:49

Are you seriously judging someone by their star sign? It's a load of tosh!!
I'm fairly certain it's not just capricorns that run hot and cold, a lot of men do and usually when they're not really interested.
Stop analysing and move on.

iklboo · 22/11/2015 19:54

He's a Cockricorn not Capricorn. It's a load of tosh. How can 1/12 of the population all be exactly the same?

Ughnotagain · 22/11/2015 20:00

I'm married to a Capricorn. He's not a dick.

Hth

Cabrinha · 22/11/2015 20:48

But ughnotagain are you married to Jesus?

ScrambledEggAndToast · 22/11/2015 22:09

Never been out with a Capricorn but my ex was a Scorpio and it's true what they say about scorpions having the sting in their tail. He was nasty. Strangely enough, DP was born exactly 6 months before him, to the day and is a Taurus. That's the same as me. He is so laid back, kind and trustworthy. We're like two peas in a pod and he is literally the exact opposite of my ex.

ObsidianBlackbirdMcNight · 22/11/2015 22:11

Can't even believe that's grown fucking adult woman would ask this question
Come the fuck on

PourquoiTuGachesTaVie · 22/11/2015 22:12

Jesus would be a terrible husband. Talk about god complex.

neverputasockinatoaster · 22/11/2015 22:22

I'm married to a Capricorn, have been for 15 years. He's lovely.
I'm a Capricorn too.
Apparently our relationship was doomed from the start....

It's not his star sign OP, it's him being an arse.

Dulceetdecorum · 22/11/2015 22:28

Is this him?

Anyone in relationship or has been with a capricorn man?

CwtchMeQuick · 22/11/2015 22:32

cockricorn

Op are you a Sagittarius? Because we all know capricorns and Sagittarius' are totally incompatible

Ubik1 · 22/11/2015 22:35

BitchPeas · 22/11/2015 22:37

DP is a Capricorn and is an absolute diamond.

An ex who turned out to be a violent, abusive, controlling psychopath was also a Capricorn.

I also had a friend who was a Capricorn who turned out to have histrionic personality disorder. She was a friggin nightmare.

One of my oldest and dearest friends is a Capricorn and, like my DP, is an absolute diamond.

You're looking at theproblem all wrong. If you've only known each other a few months and you've been having lots of serious talks about the future and can't handle a few days without contact then you are pushing it too hard. Back right off and see what happens. I'm thinking that he wants to take things more slowly. Try following his lead in terms of pace.

upaladderagain · 22/11/2015 22:49

Astrology is all bollocks.
Having said that, I was once married to a Cap. He brought bailiffs to our door with his debt, hit me when his dinner was late and I caught him shagging some bint in our sitting room.
