    Just because your guy shies away from holding hands in public or kissing in front of others doesn't mean he's not attached to you. He'd rather have a sensual evening just the two of you where he can express exactly how much he loves you.
    • Your guy will probably spend a lot of time on foreplay—Capricorns are slow to warm up! To help him get in the mood, send him flirty texts throughout the day or jump in the shower together before you hit the bedroom.

    As an earth sign, they're very protocol-driven. Your Capricorn probably asked you out and took you on classic dates—dinner, movie, walks in the park. While this seems kind of predictable, he likes to take it slow because he's genuinely interested in figuring out if you two are compatible.
    • A Capricorn man in love won't rush the relationship. Don't be surprised if you're good friends for a while before he advances the relationship.

    Once you two have gone on the classic dates and he feels like he knows you, he'll plan special outings.

    • Although he can seem a bit controlling at times, he'll let you surprise him if he really cares about you. You might offer to plan a date. He'll really appreciate if you take the time to plan the evening.

    Capricorn may not be the most thrilling or exciting astrological sign when it comes to love; they're prudent and conservative. However, if he loves you, he'll show you old-school romance. He may hand you a bouquet and formally ask you to be his girlfriend or boyfriend for instance.
