Overview of Capricorn Man Characteristics
You find your Capricorn man suddenly distant or disappearing for weeks without any reason, or you feel frustrated with his hot and cold behavior.
Have you ever wondered why?
Well, there?s a couple of Capricorn male characteristics that probably make him pull away. He has self-discipline on a very high level. Unlike Gemini, this intelligent guy will never come up with many projects at a time without any accomplishment.
He will not start a new plan unless he knows that his current venture has no chance of succeeding.
With the ruling planet of his Capricorn zodiac sign is Saturn, the man even requires more security, safety, and certainty compared to other earthy fellows (Taurus and Virgo). But of course he won?t reveal his insecure side to you.
He may be non-emotional on the surface; nonetheless, this guy also yearns for a long-term committed relationship with the woman who sincerely loves him.
How to Get a Capricorn Man Back?
#1: Give him space
When your man pulls away, don’t try to pull him closer as it does not work.
Capricorn guy ignoring you is because he needs some private time to make up his mind from the relationship; hence, you will never succeed no matter how much you beg or put out your effort.
Remember when a Cappy distant himself from you, it?s usually for a reason but the reason is not always about you. In most situations, pulling away is not a sign of a dead relationship. Just give him his space so that he can carefully think about everything of his life.
Disturbing his privacy only brings him further from you.

One of the great ways to attract the Capricorn male is to upgrading to your appearance.

Dear Shilpa,
Capricorns are very slow to get into a relationship, they want to be absolutely sure that it’s the right decision. It’s very frustrating how slow they can be but once they have decided it is SO worth it, they have huge hearts and are very loyal.
Let him take his time because rushing him could scare him off.
Sincere!
I got a capricorn man and i am a libran.
We had a misunderstanding.
I went deeper into his private life and acted as if I am his gf. My emotions brought this idea on my mind because i don’t want to waste time with him if he is just playing with me.
So I asked him if he also likes me which he never answered! I asked about his lovelife wHich he thinks its too much. We had a little argument and I found out the next day he blocked me on the dating website and he didn’t text me or video call for one week.
After those days, he chat me and asked how am i?
I told him i already apologized so what’s his reason why is he chatting me and that he blocked me.
He told me to stop talking about what he did because he don’t even see its constructive.
So i told him he is too objective and that he should not waste time with subjective person like me because we will never understand each other’s point of view unless he knows how to switch gears.he said okay.
The next day he asked me if im okay?
I said yes. He said ok.
But then i replied again and i said not really. Then greet him goid morning.
He replied the following day good morning.
Until now, he never texts and calls me.
I dont know if he still likes me.
He tried to make up things with me but i guess i messes up with that signal asking me how are you?
I really miss him so much and dont know if i will make a move to chat him again. ???
Pls help me to get him back.i am so frustrated everyday!
Hi dear,
It’s not gonna be easy.
Earth signs hold grudges, are very stubborn and always believe they’re right. Superiority is his middle name. Groveling turns him on and even then, he has no intention of taking you back. In fact, he will lose respect for you.
My honest advice is to ignore him. Use restraint. Cry to your girlfriends, cry into your pillow, meditate, take up cross fit, kickboxing WHATEVER! Just DON’T beg or grovel! Don’t contact him! Trust me.
Most people, especially women get caught up in their feelings and text, call and completely lose control of the situation. If youve done this or are doing this now… STOP IT.
Ignore him. Act as if you don’t give a damn and act as if. It’s truly the only thing Capricorns and Earth signs in general respond to. Want him back, there’s no absolute way to do this. But your absolute best chance is to treat him with quiet contempt. He’ll notice. His MO is “I can dish it but I can’t take it.” Ignore him, trust me.
Good luck.
Dear Laura,
I’ve been with a cappy for 20 years. We’ve had our share of problems mostly because he can be very self centered and has a gambling issue.
I am a Pisces and have over the years shown so much understanding, patience and forgiveness
In 2019 while refinancing a house I learned through the credit report that he had incurred 20k in gambling debt. It was a big big rupture to our marriage that was already frail. We gently recovered from that, mostly because I forgived him and started to leave everything in the past. Then again, March 2020 through another home refinance. I learned again that he incurred another 20k in gambling debt! Now a total of 40k! This time I blew up more than ever!!! In the past when these issues would come up, I would ask him to leave our home. This time I did the same and packed his stuffed and put them outside. It was a heated and violent argument, he took no ownership. I called the cops and a locksmith. I ended up not changing door lock per police recommendation and my cappy ended up not leaving, stating it was his house too. Now it’s been 3 months since this episode and he is still cold and said he is ready for whatever is next and that he no longer loves me. I’m desperate and I’m torn , destroyed inside. Of course we said mean things to each other in our arguments. I did it mostly because I was hurt and attacked . I since have forgiven him and I’m ready to repair our relationship but he is not. What should I do, please help. Any recommendations would mean the world to me. Thanks!!
Hi dear,
You could reinforce his behavior by being even warmer to him, asking him what’s wrong in a submissive way, and how you can be better to please him. But that’s the doormat way, and teaches him to get sweet responses from you without having to do anything but withhold affection.
-or-
you could refuse to play his hot-cold game. He’s trying to get you to go away, or to test how hooked you are on his affection and how long he can keep you dangling and insecure.
What he doesn’t expect is that you’ll go easily. To gain the upper hand in a relationship, and to assert yourself in your life in general, you can’t be afraid of abandonment— even if you are. You will be okay without him or anyone, which means no one can make you beg for scraps of attention.
Being with you is a privilege and if he’s going to take it for granted, he’s going to learn the consequences. It can take a woman most of her 20’s to learn how to handle manipulative men and respect herself.
Sincere!
Not sure if this article still active and responding to comments, but trying my luck.
I’m very sorry in advance, it’s a super long story telling, but hopefully not tiring you, as this could help you know more my situation, much appreciated in advance.
Him a Cappy with Gemini moon
Myself Sagittarius with Cancer moon
Been official with my boyfriend for 6months this very day, he fell head over heels for me the first 2 months, putting me on his first priority over everything. Then he flew back home for Christmas and exactly the time the flights got banned, stuck there till end of January and back in town for QT 21 days. During this whole time he’s away, we have up and downs and fought a bit, but still stayed close, especially during QT he felt so happy that I was always around and bringing him stuff he needs and sometimes little gifts.
However, after he came out from QT, he started to feel and act strange, cause back in this city he moved to 8 months ago and after over 2.5 months away but wasnt for a real holiday.
Since then, he’s been acting much quiet than usual and not like before but started to only see me on either Sunday or skipping, cause for his boss’s farewell which i could understand but i see he still been trying save at least 1 day a week for me, and he even started to say love me, and even saying move in with him/ marry him but jokingly……
Anyhow, after few weeks this situation, he suddenly asked to sit and talk about our relationship (surprise, usually this’s women’s job lol), during the talk, he’s been mainly saying that he’s only arrived this city for soon be a year, but still havent able to build his social life and meet those old friend he supposed to meet, also the work is starting to get fully on which got him no time, as he sees these things the most priority for now, the same time he does want to settle down but dont know if we’re right to have the future (which he said he knows he sounds like a jerk using a busy word).. and I listened, i also brought up his distancing and acting cold made me felt he didn’t want this anymore and made me feel i was getting clingy with him (which he said I’m not), and during the conversation, since he’s only say he’s busy got no time for me for relationship, i had to ask if all he meant was to break up with me? He said no, if he wanted that, he wouldn’t waste time to talk to me at all. So anyway, in between, we talked about solutions like mixing our friend circle so can spend time together also and see friends….etc
So, ok the 2 weeks after the talk, he made plan for the sunday after, and the week after he was sick so we spend time home stayed cozy, all were great and baamm… the Tuesday after the 2nd week, he sent me a video of himself saying almost the same busy talk again and said he doesn’t feel as relaxed as used to when with me, and thought that last 2 weeks could somehow feel better but no, then he sort of said give a few weeks to see how he and I feel and then he kind of mumbled away so i didn’t really know how exactly he wanted that moment, the first thing i replied him to his video was “Are you breaking up with me over a video?”, he replied NO, and said is because he cant talk emotional stuff in front of me and hope i could get more from him through the video, so i replied him the next day after I calm myself down and talked to friends regarding his video, mainly about understand what he said but to really make things work and the way he wanted, at least he needs to let me in again like first few months and give me chance to do things he wanted and so on….. no reply at all.
Then a whole 4 days radio silenced (we never stopped talking to each other sinve we met) until Sunday early morning asked how am I and chatted on and off whole day, but when he sent me his hiking photo, i was a bit upset, if he really love me like he said, doesn’t he miss me wanna see me when he has time…
after few days I guess was last Wednesday, i messaged him saying if he wondering i ever think of him, there’s not a day I dont and I’m here for him, and tell him to stop overthinking and sleep more.. i know he always outside saying no he doesn’t want it doesn’t need it doesn’t care, but he wants love, so yeah, he had a very positive response and said he’s been thinking of me too, telling me about his week and everything, and even telling me he’s going to have a week off in May which doesn’t sound like i will be included in the plan…. upsetting but holding my emotions, i know it isn’t the time to push…. so after few exchange, i finished the conversation by telling him i understand he’s suffocating by his schedule and I’m here for him, don’t feel bad not able to give me good times now, we have more times to come something like that. Then few more exchange, radio silence again 5 more days.
Just this Tuesdays, i suddenly came up an idea to prepare a bag of love, is something i did for him during his QT in hotel in Feb and he felt so happy and loved, so I was thinking maybe I can do this too, cause read so many articles about Cappy man deep down wanting some love and to know the woman he’s with is always there for him, so yes, i did…
Was actually terrified if ended up having other woman in his house, tho for some reason i very trusting this man, just my past experience that moment haunted me. So anyway, left the bag at the door and i go, he then messaged me 2 hours later knew it was me already once opened, he sound very happy but the same time i could sense he’s holding in…
Then the next day (yesterday) i brought up my 1st concern and asked him frankly straight if he’s trying to or seeing anyone else (we always straight forward and he’s always bluntly honest, if he is he would really tell me), cause i need to know if I’m making a fool out of myself here, then we started talking, knowing no he’s not and he’s actually thinking me a lot and looking at our photos a lot as well… and the blah blah blah a bit more. I also mentioned his silence treatment and ice cold interaction frustrated me so I got to ask the question.
Then today, he messaged me the morning and even responding very fast and kind of relaxing tone….
so, here’s my question, what should I do and react next? As i feel i have done all I could and still have no idea how long his few weeks really means, i haven’t really asked how long since the radio silence and now i don’t want to sound pushy and make him feel he’s the one make decisions, but…..it’s killing me to wait and wait and wait for don’t know how long.
And what do you feel about this man? Please I need some guidance. thanks again for reading my super long message.
Hi Saggi,
It’s essential to make him feel secure to unlock his heart. Relationships are not easy. If your man doesn’t think that he is in a safe zone, he will build colossal walls between you two.
Make him feel that is in your warm hug and let the earthquake of love crumble his defenses. Make him interested in you. This goes back in his first woman-man bond, his mother. I don’t say babysitting him, of course not. Just make him feel at home.
A man expresses his feelings when he trusts someone. You have to show him respect to gain his trust. Building trust in a relationship is crucial.
One of the primary aims is caring for him. And not only care for him but most importantly make him realize that. Tell him, show to him, shout or even paint it to him if necessary.
You should ask for simple things from your partner. When you request or even worst, demand complicated things from your man, he feels alienated and he pulls away.
Set small goals. If your expectations are high, you force him to isolate, and that can be disastrous.
There are good people, and there are bad people, right? Wrong. Good and evil fights inside any man and woman. The same person may be, a best friend for me and an enemy for you. In most cases, our behavior interacts. Where am I going with this?
If you want your man to express his love, you have to love him first. If you ask him to show his feelings, make sure that you do it first.
Why does he ignore you? Does he ignore you for no reason?
Make sure you know how his mind works. Your man may express his feelings in a way you don’t realize. There are numerous ways to express your feelings. Talk the same language with your lover is essential. Maybe a guy ignores you but likes you!
The connection between a couple should be of best friends.
Communication is critical. You must form a strong bond with your significant other. Relationships based on discussions are happier and last longer. Talk to each other regularly, and your bond will last forever.
Love him and express your feelings without asking for anything in return. Leave your ego away from your relationship. This is true love.
Many times you ‘ll have to take steps back. Looking him in the eyes with an attitude of ”look, I love you and I demand the same from you” doesn’t work.
Express your love without limits, and this is what will drive him to open up.
What do men want? What men really want?
Support him, in any way possible. Be positive with his thoughts and actions. If you disagree with something he wants, then try to advise him but don’t make any restrictions.
Cover your pieces of advice with a massive smile and an ‘I am with you no matter what.’
Appreciation in a relationship is necessary.
I want to ask about my situation too. I’m with this capricorn man me being a taurus woman for about 6 months while we been together almost every day. one month ago i had a talk with him about where is this going and he told me he is not in love with me but he enjoys a lot to be with me and spend all his time with me but he doesnt feel love. even this actions speak differently i met his family when in trips with him and his family and been together every day. Now we got into a big fight as i went to a dancing party one afternoon while he was working and i didnt tell him because i though he wasnt interested and he got very upset about it. Now this weekend he decided to go to a party for all weekend and said he doesnt want me to go cos he needs his space. It really hurts and not sure what to do. is confusing for me as i do feel he has feelings for me but i feel he does things to hurt me like not inviting me to the party.
Should i give him more time? is there a chance that he actually loves me and will want a stable relationship with me?
Its so hard to let him go dont know I need your advice
Hi Paula,
Give them two weeks with minimal contact, no dates, no special occasions. Don’t be the first one to contact them in this situation it sounds like they’re not sure what they want to be in a relationship or not, so by them texting first will show their little bit of effort. This should be enough time for you to have time for yourself too and think about your future and will also give them time get used to you guys not being together as much. Within the two weeks understand this is a great time to grow and see where you guys will stand when your back together. They should come back with more appreciation for the relationship you share.
Sincere
