Seducing a Capricorn at the office
LeeLee writes,I am a Gemini lady who has the hots for a Cap guy. Problem is I am a few years older than him--but still attractive and very "lively". This man has shown some interest in me and I catch him watching me a lot at work, but we have never made any outright moves on each other. I try to show him I care by being interested in his well-being and generally showing concern for him but I think my master plan has backfired. He has started calling me MAMMA! I'm not sure if he means "hot mamma" or that I'm acting like I'm his MOTHER! I'd like to laugh but I'm not really sure this is funny... Any ideas?Work-places romances come with a stigma. They are frowned upon in some company policies, and it sucks having to see your ex everyday at the office. But there's more to it. The office is kind of like a family. We bring our old issues to this adult environment, where we often spend more waking hours than we do with our roommates or loved ones. It is natural to project our childhood stuff onto our colleagues. Hence, sleeping with a co-worker can have incestuous overtones. If your colleagues find out, it's like your siblings have learned your secret. Do they tell the Boss (Mom/Dad)?
For a Capricorn, work is sacrosanct. It is nearly his identity. So, he may be even more loathe than others to sleep with a co-worker. This conservative sign doesn't want to risk the security of his career.
Are you being maternal? Words like concern and well-being have a care-taking flavor to them. Using solar houses, nurturing Cancer is on Capricorn's seventh house of partnership. He does look for the mothering type to balance his more dry orientation, someone who can bring the feeling element into his life. But Taurus sits on his fifth house of lovers. If you want a fling, it is better to be sensual than doting. If you have the hots for him, why are you not being flirtatious, instead?
It should be easy to tell the difference between "mother" and "hot mamma" when he calls you Mamma. Tone of voice, the look in his eye -- these are cues to which you can pay attention. He may be using the mother sense of "Mamma" to put up a safe wall, stating (unconsciously) that work-place relationships are a no-no. Or, he may be teasing, calling you on your Cancer moves, when he wants something more earthy. Only observation -- or a direct question -- will give you that answer.

Leelee, --Capricorns are certain to take root and become trees anyway--are you sure he's for you?
(just kidding)
I like Capricorns--be lsying sexy--sensual like Jeff said.Capricorns are undercover perverts.(not kidding)
She sure doesn't sound like a Gemini to me with all this "care-taking" in order to seduce a guy. She probably has Venus or Mars in Cancer....
Cappy wants to be looked after once they're in a relationship, but not before.
Blah Blah, I was actually born on the cusp of Taurus and Gemini (May 21). I have Venus in Taurus and Mars in Gemini, but no Cancer in my chart at all. I guess Taurus keeps me "earthy" when it comes to relationships.
Ahhh, Lee Lee...maybe it's your Taurus venus then that wants to take care of Mr. Cappy. Jeffrey's right. Have you ever noticed how he looks at you when he calls you "mamma?" It's all in the way he says it. If he's doing this ;) when he says "mamma", then he's ready for you to take care of him! :)
What's your ascendandt, LeeLee?
Marley, my Ascendant is Leo. Aries Moon. I do have Cancer in my 12th house but I am not sure what the 12th house rules.
Sistah!Ditch the mummy persona - so not sexy! Show him you're interested by flirting in a classy and subtle way. Just enough to get the pupils dilating and that cheeky cappy grin. And he'll be like a moth to a flame. All yours for the taking.
Hmmm . . . I suppose the best way to pursue this is after office hours
if he ever leaves the office that is
Capricorn is ever-so-sexy in a uptight sort of way, just needs someone to loosen that tie
The thing with these guys is you have to pretend you're rich
I am a 41 year old gemini woman and I have been married to a capricorn man for 5 years dated him since he was 21. because i was older and not immature like girls his age he was attracted. He becane a father instantly with two step kids and after we married had one of our own. give your cap freedom and he always comes home to you. they are the only sign who is solid enough to tolerate a gemini. but the point is the gemini woman this one in particular did not mature until she was 30 ! I was just like all the young ditzy girls my husband hates. we would not have dated if we were the same age! hope that help. ps. my husband calls me MILF!
