But I'll say this about myself and most other Caps I know. Loyalty IS one of the primary VALUES in our lives. It'd be probably in the top 3 words if we only had that many to describe ourselves.

And this doesn't just apply to the women in our lives of course. It's the same with friends I make. I make them for life. That is unless they betray or double-cross me in which case, they will probably NEVER get a 2nd chance.

But, as a guy who is not desperate for love or affection (like many of my Cancer friends I've noticed where it seems like they always NEED a girlfriend and to be told, they are loved, etc.) , and a dude who doesn't take a **** without a plan, we don't make hasty decisions. Love is important but I'd say, it's a little more down the pecking order than most other signs. Having influence/power, a successful career/recognition, a healthy bank account and other monetary/materialistic needs are higher. (Keep in mind, not ALL capricorns are like this and of course the priority and value we put on different aspects of life changes as we grow older)

Everything is planned out and we know what we want.

So for now for example, as a 21-year old guy who LOVES women in general and all TYPES of women (different personality, looks, ethnicities, etc.) , I do have a problem getting in a serious committed exclusive relationship with any one girl no matter how gorgeous or great she is. Because there's so many others I also want to not have my hands tied for and experience.

And I'm young. I want this and I don't see what's wrong with having fun casual relationships with many varied women for now.

But deep down, I know, this is temporary and when the time comes when I decide to hang up my bachelor boots and have done enough ******* ' around, and find that one special girl, I will be devoted and faithful to her like no other.

That time, just hasn't come yet and probably won't until a few more years when I've experimented and done a lot more of what I want before being tied to one person.

Sorry for the long story. But I thought this might help. And my personal opinion then, is that, it's not an OR question. It's kind of a 'both'. Faithfulness and Loyalty DOES mean the world to us. In fact, we constantly test for these sometimes even sub-consciously in people around us.

But, there is a time and a place for everything and until we find that one girl who makes us feel, no one else is ever needed, we can be womanizers.

as for their drive for money and power and whatever else.. I dont neccesarily relate..
Ive seen many caps.. who need to live more up to their sun sign of showing discipline in all matters.. behavior wise. PLF may have his way of viewing things.. go have fun and do whatever.. and the girl you will potentially marry someday will do the same. she will have fun with all those guys of different ethnicities nd whatnot. so she will be just as special as you.. and perhaps.. when the time comes she wont be ready for the committment he wants..

Capricorns are thought to take pains in selecting business partners, and lovers.
They generally enjoy influencing and directing their inferiors by giving advice on love, goading a slacker, or cheering an elderly or sick relative.
Negative traits include a tendency toward pleasing superiors. In this capacity, Capricorn becomes a sycophant, snob, or abettor or illegal or ignoble activities. At the worst, the archetype never hesitates to cozy up to the brass, thus earning a reputation as a boot licker.

Another side of Capricorn's upward mobility is an intensification of the war of the sexes. To gentle a forward woman, the male Capricorn attempts to reduce a female colleague or family member to a needy suppliant. Elevated to the status of patriarch, he flaunts supremacy thus muddling relationships by becoming bossy, sexist, and judgmental. Unhurried in romance, the standard Capricorn is described as late to marry, but even slower to divorce or abandon a lover, yet may starve a thriving relationship by witholding love or money or by ignoring a mate's emotional or sexual needs.

What I'm most curious about is whether it's true that you should "never ever tell them what to do even in the most minor things", let him figure it out on his own...is that part true?

Cardinal signs do typically like to figure things out on their own, but that doesn't mean that you can't ever express your opinion on what they should do.
