Okay, so the other day, I was texting this Capricorn guy, right? And… radio silence. Total ghost town. I’m not gonna lie, it kinda stung. So, I decided to do a little experiment. You know, for science… and maybe a little bit for my sanity.
Phase 1: The Initial Freak Out
First, I panicked. Like, full-on, “Did I say something wrong? Is he okay? Did he get abducted by aliens?” kind of panic. I scrolled through our previous conversations, looking for any red flags. I even googled “Capricorn man ignoring texts”. Don’t judge, we’ve all been there.
Phase 2: The Strategic Cooling Off Period
After the initial freak-out, I decided to play it cool. I figured maybe he was just busy, or maybe he needed some space. Capricorns, from what I’ve read, can be like that. So, I resisted the urge to double-text. I put my phone down and distracted myself. Watched some Netflix, ate some ice cream… the usual.
Phase 3: The “Casual” Check-In (aka, Not-So-Casual)
A few days later, I caved. I sent a super casual text, something like, “Hey, how’s your week going?”. Nothing accusatory, just a gentle nudge. I waited… and waited… still nothing.
Phase 4: Acceptance and Moving On (Sort Of)
- I realized that chasing after someone who’s ignoring you is never a good look.
- I started focusing on myself, hanging out with friends, and generally just living my life.
- I also deleted his number. Okay, maybe that was a bit dramatic, but it felt good at the time.
Phase 5: The Unexpected Response (Finally!)
Weeks later, guess what? He finally replied. It was some lame excuse about being “super busy with work”. I’m not gonna lie, I rolled my eyes a little. But, I decided to be the bigger person. I replied politely, kept it short and sweet, and then… I moved on. For real this time.
So, what did I learn from this whole ordeal? Basically, that if someone wants to talk to you, they will. And if they don’t, it’s their loss. Don’t waste your time on people who don’t appreciate it. Value your time, because it’s priceless!
