You can make a Capricorn male feel special in one of three ways:

Complimenting him to boost their ego.

Asking about his work or a project he is passionate about.

Slow to Fall in Love

The Capricorn male is often slow to express his feelings and women should not expect grand romantic gestures--especially early on. A Capricorn male will withhold his love in order to prevent being hurt. He will spend the early stages of the relationship creating a loyal foundation with his partner and planning the future of the relationship before opening up more. He is very cautious in relationships because it is hard for him to let go and to be a part of something that he cannot plan.

When a Capricorn male is in a relationship, he is fully committed to that relationship. He will often look at it as a project that he must make work. When dating Capricorn males, one must always be aware that he is looking at the relationship in a future tense and not in the present.
