I'm a Capricorn male (Sag stellium in the 7th) going out with a Sag female (with Capricorn rising, Mars in Cap).

Yeah, we don't argue either. She keeps waiting for me to lose my cool, but it never happens. Sometimes she theorizes that I must be suppressing what I think. I'm not sure about that, though I do enjoy peace.

As far as seducing me, as long as you don't do anything that would embarrass me, you've got a shot. If you absolutely have to do something that might embarrass me, don't make it something stupid. Sexy or hilarious are ok. Good conversation where you do most of the talking is great. We'll take the fact that you want to sit and talk with us as a compliment. Conveying intelligence through wit is impressive to us. Conveying that you have high principles or standards is probably also a plus (I wouldn't recommend doing that in a bragging way, though). Little gestures like showing up where we are (usually at work) are noticed and appreciated. Understanding and getting our humor can bring you a windfall of positive attention.

oh, gosh, MysticMelody
"Hey baby, ya wanna?" would be way to primitive... that didn't come out right... what I meant was: it takes me a long time to decide to get involved, emotionally. so -even if rationally, I know there are no guarantees in life - I like it when I know that the man is interested, and not "just flirting";

actually - I hate ppl who do that - play with feelings. pretend they're in love. I do hate it. it makes me feel un-safe - and I hate that feeling, I guess

- that's what I meant by showing me how he feels. being more open than I am, I guess - because I never show ppl what I feel - well, I do, but only when we get really close and I know I can trust them with my

Hi all,

Yes, yelling at him wasn't the best option. I learnt my lesson though, it's probably a good thing to calm down during an argument, my foot in mouth tends to crop up more when i'm upset and things come out all wrong!

But the cappie and I did make up. I called him and apologised for yelling and he said he was sorry too.

This argument happened a few days before he left for a year abroad in Mexico. When i said goodbye to him we had a deep and meaninful moment (you know where the world starts to spin and you forget there is anyone else around you?) and he kissed me goodbye. So i'm guessing he must have liked me a little.

I think him having a saggie moon and love for travel does help.

I would have to agree with the posters who said you have to be "serious". Not serious as in "no fun", because I think Capricorns love people who make them laugh...and who will laugh at OUR jokes. But, we have to believe you are serious about us. Just the thought that we may give our heart to someone who is just messing around strikes fear into the very core of our beings! lol

Also, I think you have to be someone a Capricorn can respect...someone who's going somewhere in life, and who has moral values like our own. That doesn't mean you have to be a CEO of a Fortune 500 company, but you have to have a good sense of self, to know what you want out of life.

I could never respect someone who was weak in the moral value department. I wrote a guy off who was great on paper - intelligent, great job, wealthy, made me laugh - because he told me how he took advantage of a disabled person and got a cartload of free stuff. It made my skin crawl.

I guess, ultimately, we just want to be loved and accepted for ourselves...just like everybody else. It's just that we have a hard time believing that YOU are gonna do that. And so we protect ourselves until we're sure we can trust you with our mushy insides. (And they are VERY mushy!)

Good luck!!!

P.S. You'll notice that I also have sun in Cap and venus in Aquarius, and I'm FAR from unseduceable! lol But I have to admit, one false move and you are co@k-blocked forever! lmao

All the points Purple_Chick_71 made are true for me as well! The only exception is that (as some of the others said) you cant seduce me. Either i'm into you or I'm not. One thing I'm always surprised about is the notion capricorns are nuts about material gifts. None of the capricorns I know are and me neither, and my chart doesnt get anymore capricornian....sun, mercury and venus in capricorn (7th house), plus saturn in the 1st house

Sorry for being a wet blanket, but if it has to happen, it will. I mean, if he likes YOU, as a person, he would be attracted to you without you having to really 'do' anything about it. As for the rest, follow your instincts. This is the time to try and get to know each other.

But may be you mean to say that you are trying to figure out his likes/dislikes. The word 'seduce' somehow always rings the warning bells for me.

Annaf - Oh, I know EXACTLY what you mean! I agree...either I'm into you or I'm not. (I always thought that was more due to my many plutonian aspects...another topic, another day...) I guess I'm "susceptible" when I'm first getting to know a person and I think there's some potential there. But there's no way I would even give him an opening if I see no potential. My friends have told me I don't give guys a chance, but why should I bother when I know they aren't right for me? (Which I can usually tell right off the bat.) The few times that I HAVE gone against my instinct on this have been dates from hell! (But funny stories in retrospect!)

As for gifts, I don't think Capricorns are into that material stuff AT ALL. (Maybe the less evolved ones are...) I think most of us would prefer a gift that is thoughtful rather than expensive. I think I might actually be insulted if I thought someone was trying to impress me or buy me off. You don't have to give me diamonds...I'd much rather you bought me a DVD of that movie I mentioned once that I like...and then have you cuddle up and watch it with me. :-)

Yeah, maybe instead of using the word "seduce", I should have asked, "How to DELIGHT a Capricorn"...

I'm Cap rising, and I feel the same--I'm either into you, or I'm not. And a main thing I look for in a guy is a genuine, honest connection.

"But, we have to believe you are serious about us. Just the thought that we may give our heart to someone who is just messing around strikes fear into the very core of our beings! lol"

Does this mean that most Capricorn men would not be interested in a casual fling?

The Cap takes me out on Dates with a capital D that he plans, and seems to care about impressing me on them, and I have a great time and I feel VERY attracted to him on all levels, and he makes no physical move! We share an unusual sense of humor, and I've wondered if maybe he more wants to be friends. But he kind of let me know he thought I was beautiful, and the dates are very date-y. I would actually be more comfortable with more casual "hanging out."

It sounds like from what you guys are saying that the Cap is just taking it slow.

A Capricorn man is interested in a casual fling as much as any other man! lol But, my dear, it sounds like THIS Capricorn man is courting you.

He takes you out on elaborate dates that he's planned out? The shy guy has told you he thinks you're beautiful??? OMG...I think he's REALLY into you! That's just my opinion, but I don't think a Capricorn would go to so much trouble for a casual thing (or "just friends").

Christiname, sorry if I seemed to take your words wrong... I have the bad habit of responding to Thoughts instead of to People.
I couldn't agree more with your statement in you last post... "what I meant was: it takes me a long time to decide to get involved, emotionally. so -even if rationally, I know there are no guarantees in life - I like it when I know that the man is interested, and not "just flirting"

I understand completely.

Purple Chick said it too...
"But, we have to believe you are serious about us. Just the thought that we may give our heart to someone who is just messing around strikes fear into the very core of our beings! lol"

yes yes yes

Lucia, your guy sounds fabulous. I personally think his behavior is a dream come true and an obvious sign that he is VERY interested. He takes it slow because he respects you and is willing to invest some time in getting to know you. And he told you that he thought you were beautiful?! Stop worrying and start enjoying every wonderful minute.

He's stopped calling me after three totally chaste dates. I texted him once just in case he was confused and thought I wasn't interested, but, nothing.

Oh well. I seem to have been having a run of bad luck that way. I guess I'll just be alone.

This guy is GREAT--any woman would be lucky to be with him! Wish it was me.

I've attracted a Capricorn here and there and usually without even trying. Soooo...

What I got from them was this: I think they really want someone with integrity and poise. Not someone who just looks good, but someone who has a good internal compass. However, the person also has to have a decent sense of humor. I jokingly have called a lot of the Capricorns I know Capricorn-y. Many of them would tell the CORNIEST jokes. However, they were usually so corny they were actually funny. lol.

Capricorns are good people. I like them. They have very good insights into people.

Lucia - I still think he's interested in you, but he might be freaking out a little and backing off temporarily. I'm just curious, if you don't mind...what did you say in your text?

Nice to see you again InLoveWithLife!

Lucia, can you keep your cool about it? It may just be the old leave-'em-hangin' test to see if you're needy or not.

I guess I'm cautious with neediness.. in the sense that relationships should be a give and take. When one person is very needy and the other person gives until they're left with an empty tank, it's not only unfair but also destroys the relationship.

I don't know about Cap guys (AG?) but as a girl with Cap influence I often feel like people throw responsibilities in my lap.. Emotional responsibilities are harder to deal with, since Cap (fatherly) is the opposite of Cancer (motherly).. Caps can 'father' you or give you practical advice.. but they wouldn't feel comfortable having to mother you.

That being said I don't agree with testing for anything.. It seems disrespectful, and distrust is the quickest way to lose a person. There are other ways to suss out a situation. I wouldn't jump to the conclusion he is testing.

I'm soooo inexperienced with dating, you guys. I was in a long term relationship with a Libra for my whole adult life so far, that just ended last year. It never occurred to me that someone might test to see if I was needy.

"Lucia - I still think he's interested in you, but he might be freaking out a little and backing off temporarily. I'm just curious, if you don't mind...what did you say in your text?"

I think unfortunately that it's been too long. After I didn't hear from him for a week, I texted and said, "If you're around this weekend, call me if you want to go get dinner." And he just ignored the text. At the beginning, he called, texted and emailed a lot. I think he's trying to let me know he's not interested.

"Lucia, can you keep your cool about it? It may just be the old leave-'em-hangin' test to see if you're needy or not."

For my future reference if I ever date again--what does this test entail? Does the guy just not call, and if you don't call either, he deems you "not needy"?

CoralFrequency, I agree with you. Neediness is unpleasant, and so are tests! The Cap seems like a straight shooter to me, but then I don't know him that well.

I'm just saying that we've heard of Capricorn men going silent before, and it doesn't necessarily mean that they've lost interest. I kind of think that tests (if they exist) like this are subconscious for Capricorns, because it is very important to a Capricorn that they're with a fairly self-sufficient person, someone who can handle the Capricorn's absense when they get too involved with things. I think this ties into a Capricorn's ability to trust his/her partner.

Like I said, it could be subconscious on a Capricorn's part. You can still call when he's absent. Just stay conscious of what kind of vibe you're putting out. You can express missing him without it sounding needy. Just be confident.

Over a week does seem like a long time, though.

Yeah, I think it's been too long. And we'd never gotten together physically yet, so it would be too early for him to worry that I was clingy.

I think something just put him off, unfortunately.
