🔥 Jealousy: When & Why
Capricorn men are not overtly or irrationally jealous. Their jealousy is typically triggered by perceived threats to the stability, respect, or future of the relationship.

- Emotional Neglect: If he feels his steady efforts are being taken for granted while others receive your energy.
⚖️ Possessiveness vs. Protection

Protective (Typical): He wants to provide, plan for you both, and create a safe haven. This comes from a place of love and duty.
Possessive (If Insecure): May try to control your social circle, criticize your independent choices, or make you feel guilty for time spent away from him. This stems from fear of instability.
