Would You Or Wouldn't You Date A Capricorn?

by Ashley Fern

Does a person's astrological sign really say something about his or her dating personality, or overall disposition? Many people strongly believe in the stars and what they stand for, while others do not. Regardless, it's always fun to investigate such a topic and explore it in its entirety.

We're currently in the cycle of Capricorn, so we are going to take a closer look at the qualities of a person born between December 22 and January 19. Would you want to date someone of this sign? Time to whip out the pros and cons:

Pros

Choosey

This is a great characteristic to have because it means you aren't settling for the bare minimum. Capricorns have high standards, so if you are lucky enough to find one to date you, well then, you must be something special. These people don't just turn any old rendezvous into a relationship; they wait until they've found a compatible match.

Stable

The last thing you want to deal with in a relationship is an emotional train wreck. For anyone who has been in that position before, you are more than aware of how detrimental this can be. There is no sustainability when you, or your partner, continuously display erratic behavior.

Ambitious

Wouldn't you want your partner to have motivation and drive? There's nothing worse than dating a lazy person because chances are, if they are lackadaisical in one aspect, he or she will be lazy in another. You want someone who is always seeking more out of life and looking for excitement in any and all situations.

Patient

This is perhaps one of the best and most crucial qualities a person can possess. Fights and disagreements happen from time to time in relationships, so wouldn't you rather work these issues out with someone who is patient? Relationships are all about compromise, and a patient person will more than willing to hear your side of the story without interrupting or throwing his or her beliefs in your face.

Proactive

If a Capricorn is not happy with his or her present situation, he or she will actively change it rather than simply complain. Capricorns are driven individuals who are in control of their present circumstances, a trait not everyone has. They don't sit back and let good fate appear; they actively go out and make it happen.

Cons

Works A Little Too Hard

Sometimes a Capricorn forgets how essential it is to take a break from work. Capricorns are so driven that they don't take time to themselves. If you have a date set and a work obligation arises, you better be prepared for your boyfriend or girlfriend to blow you off. This can get pretty annoying if it happens frequently.

Stubborn

What's worse than a person who is set in his or her ways? I can't think of anything worse than arguing with someone who won't budge in his or her beliefs. Sometimes you do not always know what is best and it's okay to admit that, especially in a relationship.

Self-Centered

If the way you're acting is not in a fashion a Capricorn appreciates, you better believe he or she is going to look elsewhere. Capricorns are very particular about their romantic partners, so if you aren't satisfying them, they are going to leave without looking back.

Moody

When you are dating someone as hardworking as a Capricorn, expect his or her mood to fluctuate based on the type of day he or she had at the office. You don't want to receive the backlash a Capricorn will bring home after a bad day. If he or she is pissed off about something, even if it has nothing to do with you, it will certainly be reflected in his or her mood.

Detached

Do you really want to date someone who is constantly putting up walls? This experience is beyond frustrating and the downfall of many relationships. Be careful falling in love with someone who has little likelihood of letting you in.

Each individual is different, so you really never know what a relationship will be like until you try. Based on this list, however, dating a Capricorn seems like an anxiety ridden experience.
