Capricorns often evoke strong feelings in others – it’s either love or dislike.
People might get the wrong idea about Capricorns initially because they often appear serious or unapproachable. Even though Capricorns can be genuinely kind, those who are close to this zodiac sign acknowledge that there’s some truth to the initial impression.
In reality, Capricorns, born under the 10th House, carry extra traits that may not always come across positively to the outside world.
If you’ve got a friend who’s a Capricorn, they’re either your really good buddy or someone you find hard to be with. Some folks even feel both ways about them simultaneously.
It requires patience to deal with them.
Here are 4 personality traits of Capricorn you should be aware of:
1. Capricorn will never forgive.
Capricorns are known for not forgetting easily. They can keep a grudge longer than most people stay in a job. While they can patch things up and be polite, returning to the way things were before a falling out is unlikely.
No matter how much you apologize or attempt to make amends, your friendship won’t fully return to its original state. It might sound serious, but Capricorns are cautious individuals. If they discover you can hurt them, they won’t allow you to come close enough to do it again.
2. Capricorn might come off as someone who knows everything.
Capricorns don’t believe they’re superior or more intelligent than others; they simply have confidence in their own abilities. People often seek advice from Capricorns because of their reputation for being knowledgeable, which can make them feel good about themselves.
While Capricorn tries to resist sharing random facts or correcting others, it’s not guaranteed to always happen.
3. Capricorn can also act condescending.
If you’re not familiar with what they know, they might act a bit superior. It gets worse when it’s about things they really love.
If you make a false statement about a Capricorn’s favorite show, movie, or artist, they’ll educate you thoroughly, as if you’ve never been taught before.
4. Capricorn tends to have a negative outlook.
No matter the situation, Capricorns always expect the worst, even with small things.
For instance, when they visit Starbucks, they anticipate the barista mispronouncing their name, as it usually happens. So, they’ve stopped giving their real name altogether.
It might not be the best habit, but what else can they do? Hope for the best and end up disappointed? Not likely.
Capricorns won’t just accept something as true because someone says it is.
Similar to Virgo, they often research the points others make, finding joy in proving them wrong.
With their skepticism, they not only show that you were mistaken but also that they were right and saw through any nonsense.
