Dating A Capricorn
In dating, a Capricorn much prefers that his or her date initiates things. They have zero interest in casual hook-ups, thinking they are a big waste of time. They prefer to save all their passion (and trust) for someone they get to know over time. Capricorns like to be sure they are with someone worth being around for the long haul.
Capricorns talk as much as they listen. Expect a fair amount of their end of the conversation to be about the latest goal they’ve set for themselves. Watch how their whole posture changes and their face lights when they are especially enthusiastic about it. If Capricorn is excited by something, that means it’s deeply important to them. Capricorn likes to know about the things that you are willing to work for too. A Capricorn is loath to establish an emotional connection if you two are too far apart on the things you want. Potential partners don’t have to be as driven as they are, but they should at least have their act together and have some things they are working towards. People with skeletons in their closets or a lot of heavy emotional baggage need not apply.
Reserved Capricorn appreciates a partner who is a bit more emotionally demonstrative, capable of supplying some of the romance their sentimental side secretly craves. They often miss subtle cues, so it helps to be extremely direct with them. When Capricorn finally lets down their guard, your heart will melt.
Capricorn’s favorite dates include traditional things like a nice dinner or a night out at the movies. Don’t try to do anything too avant-garde as that will just irritate them. They are very happy going to a place that’s tried and true for them or if they do branch out, someplace with a bit of status or clout to it.
Capricorn Expectations in Relationship
For those born under the Capricorn Sun Sign, love is often part of their long-term goals. They want someone who they can trust enough with their hidden soft spots who is also interested in a committed relationship where both partners work to make the other happy. Capricorn is not going to let their guard down for just anybody so it will take time to overcome their concerns over trust and any accumulated pessimism. But when they do let you in, they are yours for life. Capricorn has no concept of breaking a commitment.
Capricorn is energized by love as expressed by being a good provider. They can be very self-sacrificing to this end and want to know that they are appreciated for this. Despite their generally positive outlook, they can slip into a melancholic brooding, yet they’re receptive to humor that draws them out and make them smile. As traditionalists, they frown upon eccentricity and breaking conventions and taboos. Whatever role you’ve agreed to play in the relationship, stick to the script and never give them a reason to distrust you. In return, you’ll be rewarded with a devoted and loyal partner and an excellent provider.
Capricorn and Sex
Capricorn’s serious (sometimes dour) exterior belies a very sexual person. Because it takes them a little longer than average to take things to that level, people assume they don’t have much interest in carnal relations. But the truth is as an Earth Sign, Capricorn relishes sex and may surprise you with the intensity of their appetite. Blame it on how tightly wound they seem outside the bedroom, but once inside Capricorn seeks a release in a big way. They love to see their lover happy and enjoy pleasing them.
Capricorn in a Relationship
To Capricorn, blood is thicker than water, but they treat their closest friends like family. If you are lucky enough to have a Capricorn as a friend, know that a.) they think very highly of you and b.) they are as loyal as they come. Steady Capricorn is drama averse, but they will form a buffer between you and more dramatic individuals if you need the space. It’s a stretch to say Capricorn doesn’t judge. They do. But they will listen, and since they’ve already decided that you are a friend, will be there with level-headed advice (and often a plan) to help you out. You’ll know you are a very close friend when Capricorn decides it’s OK to confide in you when it comes to emotional matters.
Capricorns tend to be traditionalists, insofar as a Capricorn likes to rely on a partner to handle the private sphere while they focus on their career. They also like a partner who will accompany them on work-related events such as conventions or business dinners, who can help break the ice and contribute to their professional success.
As a lover, Capricorn may be reserved in public, but they let their passion show in the bedroom. If they trust you enough to sleep with, they are already very committed to the relationship. Capricorn doesn’t stray. Capricorns also get that love is a verb and will take the time and effort needed to keep it strong. Love assets for the Capricorn Sun Sign are fidelity and stability. The love challenges for those born under the Capricorn zodiac sign are taking an overly long time to trust others and getting too wrapped up in work.
Best Compatibility with Capricorn
Grounded and sensual, the most compatible signs with Capricorn are other Earth Signs — specifically Taurus and Virgo, and Water Signs Pisces, Cancer, and Scorpio, who nourish the Earth and encourage new growth. The least compatible signs with Capricorn are Fire and Air Signs – Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius, Aries. One particularly challenging match is Capricorn and Leo because both are attracted to materialistic success, as well as the opposite personality qualities in one another (Leo’s warmth and Capricorn’s aloofness). But Capricorn can’t give Leo the attention Leo needs, and Leo can’t handle Capricorn’s sarcastic sense of humor.
Keep in mind that compatibility is driven by more than your Sun Sign and its associated Element and Mode. Knowing where the Ascendant, Moon, and Venus appear in your chart and that of your partner or person of interest can help you understand zodiac compatibility at a deeper level as these positions can mitigate or overcome incompatibility at the Sun Sign level.
Capricorn and Capricorn
One Capricorn will always recognize and admire the drive they see in a fellow Capricorn. They never need to explain to each other why a specific goal is so important. Their partner will innately get it. But two workaholics can easily find themselves miles apart from where they started while chasing new goals. And because they think the other one completely understands their drive, they don’t have to work as hard on the emotional component of their relationship. Both Capricorns need to be emotionally mature for this to have a future, but they can make it work.
Capricorn and Taurus
Both signs share a rock-solid work ethic and want nothing more than to set down roots with a settled and steady partner. Taurus is in awe of Capricorn’s determination and Capricorn loves that Taurus blend of practicality and sensuality. They are both happy in a slow-moving relationship as well, really getting to know each other. But arguments between them can be the real-life version of the unstoppable force meeting an immovable object. Compromise is a word that comes hard for them both. They need to rely on their mutual love and respect to remind them that some things need to be talked through.
Capricorn and Virgo
Because they are both such straightforward signs, trust develops quicker than would be expected for them both. They share an aversion to drama and a love for sensible, laid out plans. These two have a lot of mutual respect right from the start, from which they can build on to create a strong, lasting relationship. Neither one of them expects over the top romantic gestures and are fed by all the small loving acts that happen day-to-day. But it’s precisely their discomfort with the messiness of emotions where there could be trouble. First, they need to admit they have them. Second, they need to communicate them.
Capricorn and Cancer
This pairing has the potential to be complete heaven or utter hell. Both of them want the stability and safety of a settled relationship. Both of them put their all into the things that matter most. Cancer will knock themselves out to make Capricorn feel emotionally supported and heard. Capricorn will move heaven and earth to keep Cancer protected and cared for. The sex between the two is breathtaking and divine. But Cancer’s mood swings can be a lot for no-drama Capricorn to handle. And Capricorn’s squeamishness about sharing emotions isn’t going to be helpful. They could easily find themselves in a vicious spiral that brings out their worst traits. Or they can see how amazingly well each brings out the best in each other and buffers their own weak spots.
Capricorn and Scorpio
Both of these signs have many layers to them. There’s often a fair bit going on under the surface. Scorpio instantly senses the vulnerability behind Capricorn’s driven nature and is intrigued by it. Capricorn is also intrigued by Scorpio’s depth and isn’t intimidated by their intensity. They often share a quirky dark sense of humor that helps break the ice between them. Once Capricorn relaxes enough to trust Scorpio in the bedroom, theirs is a dynamic and intense coupling. But Scorpio can become impatient with Capricorn’s reluctance to examine their deeper emotions and motivations while Capricorn could see Scorpio’s interest in that as just navel-gazing. They need to learn to respect that they express their intensity in different ways and make the effort to bend a bit to see where their partner is coming from.
Capricorn and Pisces
The relationship between these two might seem right out of a romantic comedy where the strait-laced protagonist finds their true love in a free-spirited soul. This trope didn’t come out of nowhere; this love affair has the potential to be the happy ending both partners are looking for. Pisces shakes off Capricorn’s gloomier tendencies, not taking them personally, and often provides the perspective Capricorn needs so they too can move past it. Capricorn provides some needed grounding. They are however different in just enough ways to drive each other crazy if they aren’t careful. Both signs need to be realistic about those differences and work on the communication portion of their relationship.
