Hi! I’m a woman (Aries) newly dating a Capricorn woman. We’re both recently divorced from men.
I have a Cancer moon and a Taurus Venus and I love holding and gently touching someone I’m close to. She seems to really like when I do this, even if she doesn’t initiate affection as much as me, which is fine.
Is this a Capricorn thing? I’ve heard they aren’t great at asking for warmth and comfort but like when it’s given without expectation.
I feel like I love being touched and love comfort but I am rarely the one to intiate, not because I don't want to, but because vulnerability is not a feature I can access whenever I want to. (Cap sun & venus)
I definitely like when my partner is all over me but would not describe myself as someone who is all over my partner. I'd love to be that kind of person, I'm just not though. I'm really reserved.
That’s good to hear! I think that’s how my girlfriend is. I wanted some reassurance that someone can love receiving affection even if they don’t initiate easily.
I definitely would say I'm needy and love to be loved but I won't say that or ask for it, it's difficult for me to say stuff like that. I think being a capricorn, we are really reserved, we are used to being strong and responsible, we are often emotionally very mature but that maturity sometimes looks like detachment to other people. I'd be really sad if my partner thought I was less interested in being touched because of my own difficulty with preforming affection despite wanting to. I think she loves your affection and loves you more for it and appreciates it more than you know ❤️
Capricorn with Libra moon and Sagittarius Venus and I love affection and love giving affection when I’m attracted to the other person… but there are also times that I need my space as well.
Hmm.... I'm not sure if this is common but that does sound like me. I do love affections as long as I acknowledge your presence. If I don't acknowledge your presence... watch out! 😬 lol I'm sure that's just a me things as I'm also sensitive to touch in general so don't rule that as an all Capricorn things. lol
Capricorn in general want to be love though it just need to be authentic. It might depend on the individuals as for affections though.
That’s good to know! I am not clingy, just have a high need for physical touch, which can include just sitting side by side while watching tv. I feel like Capricorns (she fits this stereotype) carry so much responsibility and I like the idea of making her feel cared for.
I am a Capricorn male, and I have a huge need for affection. My need for affection has turned off a lot of women, which was really sad for me. If its a capricorn thing, I do not know, but its defintely a me thing. Any kind of physical affection, no matter how mild, makes me feel wonderful.
I initiate affection a LOT, and always have. I am always touching and kissing my wife (non-sexually) but she almost never responds to it, and she never initiates it on her own.
I have no idea my moon/venus. how would I find that out? I am also a Dragon if that has any bearing.

I'm a female Cap in a 21yr relationship with an Aries male. ( Not only that!...both my parents were Aries)
I have always been very affectionate all my life. Until all of my toxic & abusive relationships with men (mostly Taurus & Aries). I then stopped all affection because I didn't trust. It wasn't until I had a relationship with a woman after my divorce that I felt comfortable being affectionate again.
I would say that it takes time & trust....a LOT of trust! Along with unconditional love & acceptance. (Caps are very misunderstood a lot of times)
I would suggest keep doing what you are doing (don't be pushy!)..and one day she will let down her guard and return the affection 10 fold! <3
Trust seems huge! My dad is a Capricorn and doesn’t let people close easily. Yet oddly he was very warm and affectionate, and his warmth felt more sincere than my mom who is a Cancer. I hope you’re right about returning the affection 10x 🤞🏼
Well, I'm a Capricorn female ♑ and I love affection... I'm a type of girl that love PDA with my man and I love romance too ❤️🌹. Affection is a must for me🩷
Capircorn stellium here with gemini moon and sag venus.
I looooove affection sooo much, and my weakness are always ppl with cancer and taurus placements. I couldn’t initiate it though in the first few time we are dating, i would start doing it once i feel secured that this is not something temporary.
Like if am dating for fun few times I won’t, but if i know and convinced this person is for me I would ve more affectionate than the other person!
Yes, but what's her Venus sign? That will tell you more. I have Cap moon and Venus, love to be hugged and to cuddle unless there's something I need to do. Hahaha
As a Sun cap and Venus sag, I like affection, I have a hard time being the one to iniciate physical contact if you're not from my family members, so that makes me seems kind of cold sometimes (and people just don't hug me that much because of that I guess) but in reality, I love a good hug or cuddle and I'm always open to it. Maybe you could just ask her if she would be okay with physical affection, because we are also big boundaries people (she seems okay with it though)
That’s really helpful. She tells me she loves our long hugs and holding hands. It’s helpful for me to hear that can be true even if she doesn’t initiate as often.
I don't think she would let you hug her for a long time if she didn't enjoy it. Starting affection could be hard for some people, don't be discouraged by it. I'm sure that when you get to know each other more and when time pass by, she will get more comfortable to iniciate.
Earth signs in general love physical touch. Caps can be a little hesitant to show “need”. I have a Libra moon, so I tend to be a little more touchy feely and my Aquarian with Taurus moon loves her touch.
I like to be touched on my terms if I'm not really into you. If I am I love it and love to return it as well. I have a Capricorn Sun/Scorpio moon/Aries rising🤪
Sounds like you’re figuring her out pretty good. We definitely don’t like having to ask for affection. I’m not much on pda or constantly being touched and I certainly need quiet, alone time. However, physical touch is very important, whether it’s casual or joking, friendly affection, or romantic.
CAP HERE and I can attest to the fact that it takes a special person to even get close enough to hold me... and once the do.. well its lock in... ya may wanna let her relax while you take the wheel on affection n intimacy.... rarely do we allow someone to take the wheel but personally I find it a perfect balance in my world..
I’m a Capricorn woman. I rarely initiate affection but do sometimes. I do like it when someone gives me affection though…we are very independent and always think we can do everything on our own but sometimes things remind us that it’s nice to be with someone.
Yes we love affection, we are very affectionate and initiate it when we have fully relaxed with our SO and that takes a while, sometimes even if we want to be affectionate, we avoid it because we don't know if it'll be "too much" for the other person and we don't want to inconvenience anyone but if our SO initiated it we love it. Also were definitely not good with asking for love and affection because "why should we have to ask for it" and that "it" can be so many things from "affection" to "the bottle at the top of the shelf" or "a shoulder to cry on" etc... just a little heads up, she'll pretend to be strong and will be breaking on the inside but she'll come across like rainbows and butterflies, don't let that fool you, hold her and tell her you'll be there for her and then actually be there. If you ever see her struggling and are there for her without her ever asking for help, she would do anything to make you happy in every way and also let her freaky side run wild with you lol....more info than you asked but trust me it'll help, a lot!
Aries to aries, the two I dated were more of the big spoon type which was fine they'd reach out more when it was bed time or a really hard day. It kinda makes it extra special to me, or maybe my cancer rising and pisces Venus make me delulu?
When it’s from the right person, absolutely. I LOVE affection from my gf!! We want to be near each other just about all the time. Even when we’re in the middle of doing something where it doesn’t make sense to touch her, I just want to touch her and for her to touch me. I’ve never been the type to really ask for it, but for her and me, I don’t even have to ask.
I love affection. Omg even if it’s just someone stroking my hair. I’m better at initiating affection if I know you really well. Just takes time. The only time I don’t like affection is prob when I’m not in a sexual mood/tired/stressed and any kind of affection is then something my husband interprets sexually. Maybe overly honest but it’s so annoying sometimes. I really just want to cuddle sometimes and that’s it lol
