Expert Interview. 10 December 2021.} Since the two of you likely have very different interests, it shouldn't be too hard for you to find something you're clueless about that he happens to be an expert in.

- Rest assured that your Capricorn guy cares a lot about your wants and needs and will always take them into consideration when making his decisions. If you ever disagree with anything, though, speak up! He'll learn from it and apply that information next time.

- Your feminine softness extends beyond your appearance to your general demeanor as well. He'll love how kind and nurturing you are to anyone who crosses your path.
- If you dream of becoming a mother someday, don't hesitate to tell him about it. Capricorns tend to be fairly traditional, so it's likely he's looking to start a family at some point as well.

Let him have his alone time when he needs it.

- Even though Capricorns don't always express how they feel, you'll easily be able to pick up on the signs that he's socially overloaded and needs some peace and quiet. Watch for him to withdraw to a quiet corner, seem distracted, or respond to you with short answers.
- If you mention that you have the same need and that you understand him, he'll feel like he's found his soulmate. He'll never want to leave your side if he feels that you understand him this deeply.

- For example, you might find out his favorite book, then hunt down a rare first edition—even better, one that was signed by the author.
- Well-made items that he'll use often also top the list. If he's a writer, you might look for a particularly well-made pen. Does he wear suits to work? Maybe get him a custom-tailored suit coat.

Take on a supportive role in his life.

- Capricorn guys don't tend to express their emotions (or their emotional needs) very well—or at all. That means you have to intuit a lot of what he might be looking for in a partner. But as one of the most intuitive signs in the zodiac, you've got that down.
- When you find the right ways to support him, he'll never want you to leave his side. Your intuitive, caring nature makes you the perfect partner for him because he doesn't have to spell everything out.
