“Hi! I know I’m supposed to wait a few days before texting, but I can’t help myself. 😉” “Hey there! I really enjoyed meeting you the other day. How’ve you been since then?”

“I’m terrible at starting conversations. Do you want to try? 😉” “You choose: should I start with a cheesy pick-up line, a compliment, or a simple hello?” “I like you. What are you going to do about it?”

“I think it’s so cool that you’re writing a novel in your spare time. I’ll be first in line to read it someday! 🤩” “You’ve worked hard to get to where you are in life, and it shows. Your dedication is inspiring!”

“It’s crazy how much you know about classic cinema! Would you show me your favorite film sometime?” “I’m so happy that you’re interested in true crime too! What’s your favorite documentary?” Text him a link to an article. “You’re into politics, right? I’m interested in hearing your thoughts on this. "

“You know what they say: if at first you don’t succeed, blame someone else and seek counseling. 🤪” Send him a totally deadpan text message and follow it up with a funny GIF, so he knows you’re joking. Capricorn guys don’t like vulgarity. Make sure you’re sticking to clean, witty humor and saving inappropriate jokes for someone else!

Wear a flattering outfit when you take the picture. Pick simple and classic clothes to impress your Capricorn. Avoid sending photos where you look messy, like post-workout pics or early morning selfies. The more put-together you look, the better. You don’t need to be scantily clad to attract a Capricorn! Just look into the camera and give him a flirty smile to catch his eye.

“I loved that pic you posted on Instagram! You look so dashing. " “I think you’ll like the outfit I’m wearing tonight. I picked it with you in mind! 😉” “I’ve been thinking about you all day. Can’t wait to see you tomorrow!”

“Here’s a kitten video to help you beat the Monday blues. It’s a weekly dose of cuteness, from me to you! 😁” “Fun fact of the week: otters hold hands when they sleep so they don’t float apart. Cute, right?” “Thanks for inviting me out for a drink! I’ll see you at 6 PM sharp. I’d never keep a guy like you waiting!”

“Have a great day at work, handsome! You’re going to be amazing. 😘” “I know it’s been a tough week, but just think about the weekend! We’ve got a date, and I think it’s going to be so much fun. 😁”

There’s a difference between being concise and rude. Make sure every text still feels polite. Add an exclamation or simple smiley face if a text seems cold. For example: if he texts you and asks you out for a coffee, confirm by texting “Sure. I can’t wait!” rather than “Yep. " While it’s shorter, the first text is still concise—and kinder too.

Capricorn guys are especially unlikely to respond during work hours because they’re so driven and focused. Don’t take it personally if you text him in the morning and get a response in the evening! If he’s slow to text, ask your Capricorn to call you instead. He’ll probably agree; Capricorn isn’t the most text-savvy sign and gravitates toward old-school methods of communication.
