5 Things to Know About Dating Capricorn

When dating a Capricorn, do not expect someone who will bare their heart or be overly affectionate. When getting to know someone better, Capricorns tend to be very matter-of-fact and attentive but relatively detached emotionally. Still, the Capricorn man or woman can be quite romantic, and the males will likely display acts of chivalry and possibly insist on paying for everything if they can afford it. On the other hand, Capricorns may otherwise prefer to split things 50/50 and avoid creating dependency.

The Capricorn person is someone with natural ambition and strong work ethic. Capricorns, although loving and compassionate in their own right, are not disposed towards wearing their hearts on their sleeves. They tend to display a rather reserved temperament and can find it difficult to express their feelings most of the time. They exude an aura of competence, professionalism and emotional control. But beneath their phlegmatic demeanor there is a reservoir of sensual passion and affection waiting to be channeled.

In both their professional and personal lives, Capricorns tend to be the ones making the decisions or at least playing an active role in planning and deliberation. Being the strong minded individuals they are, getting them to bend to your will or agree with you can be a challenging task. They can be obstinate and very adamant about their way of seeing things. Capricorns are not known for being very malleable as they tend to have a very strong will and sense of what they want and don’t want.

1. Capricorns Like it Classy

What does a Capricorn dislike? Capricorns dislike phony and superficial people. Authenticity and realness is very important in their book and they have little patience for people who seem disingenuous and full of baloney. Capricorns are very practical beings with a preference for simplicity and structure. They tend to have a lot of self discipline and wield an ability to forego a lot of sumptuous and indulgent pleasures for the sake of pursuing an important goal or objective. That said, Capricorns are attracted to people who have their priorities straight, and carry themselves with some class.

2. Capricorns can seem cold.

Why are Capricorns so cold? Capricorn’s planetary ruler is Saturn which, in astrology, is the planet of restriction, structure and order, among other things. This is what accounts for Capricorn’s characteristic gravitas and conservative leanings. Depending on the placement of their moon, mid heaven and ascendant, Capricorn personalities can vary from being super reserved and boring to super zany and comical. They can be very hard to read and they tend to maintain emotional restraint and a dry demeanor.

3. Capricorns Have a wry Sense of Humor.

The brand of humor that Capricorns tend to display is often subtle and understated. Capricorns are the kings and queens of sarcasm and dry and sometimes dark humor. Their sense of absurdity juxtaposes to great effect with their ability to not laugh at their own jokes and control their facial expressions. Comedic Capricorns such as Kate McKinnon and Jim Carrey are gifted with super expressive and animated faces but they are exceptions rather than the norm.

4. Be Patient.

It’s little wonder why many people are so attracted to Capricorn. Many of them have a stately beauty and a mysterious mystique. Even the more extroverted Capricorns can seem a bit aloof and are very guarded about their privacy. Many Capricorns are introverted and have a penchant for being something of a shut-in. Furthermore when it comes to social engagements, they are not highly impulsive but in the right mood, they can be quite uninhibited.

Nevertheless, it’s important not to spring things on them on short notice nor try to impose your prearranged agenda on them. It’s better to make suggestions and give them time to think about it and get back to you when they’re ready. It is best to keep things light and casual in the beginning and avoid coming on too strong or too fast. Capricorns welcome stimulating conversation, and if you can captivate their mind, you have a good shot at captivating their heart as well.

5. Dress To Impress

Capricorns are very selective and are not inclined to waste time on losers. On a date with Capricorn, it’s a good idea to dress to impress as they pay attention to physical appearance and presentation as a sign of how you feel about them. Furthermore, Capricorns are pretty straightforward and upfront and not disposed towards playing mind games or being cryptic about their intentions. Capricorn’s are interested in cultivating deep connections and getting to know people better. However, being the sensual pragmatists they are, many Capricorns are willing to get physically intimate early on and out of the way before proceeding to get to know someone better.
