  1. Being busy is definitely a red flag. In my experience, when my Capricorn ex became too absorbed in work and less interested in our relationship, it signaled the beginning of the end. It’s like they’re creating distance intentionally.

  2. It’s fascinating how a Capricorn man’s financial decisions can reveal so much about his feelings. I once experienced a similar situation where finances became a dividing factor. It’s like they’re creating a practical exit strategy while emotionally distancing themselves.

  3. The part about putting things on pause hit close to home. I remember feeling like everything was on hold before my breakup. It’s like they’re buying time to figure out the right moment to end things.

  4. The idea of a Capricorn man becoming distant resonates with me. It happened in my past relationship, and it was a clear signal that something was amiss. Sometimes, actions speak louder than words.

  5. Noticed the cold and distant behavior once, and it turned out to be a clear indicator of the impending breakup. Actions really do speak louder than words in these situations.
