Capricorn Jealousy: It's About Respect & Resources 🧐💼
Cap & The Green-Eyed Monster: Less Emotion, More Strategy? 🤔
Capricorn jealousy isn't usually the fiery, passionate type. It's often cooler, more calculated, and tied to their core needs for security, respect, and status.
If they perceive a threat, it might be less about losing love emotionally and more about losing investment (time, resources, social standing) or feeling disrespected. Seeing their partner give significant time or resources to someone else, or publicly admiring someone who threatens Cap's own sense of competence or status, can trigger a cool, controlled (but deeply felt) possessiveness.
The "twist" is that their reaction might not be emotional outbursts but strategic maneuvering – working harder to prove their own value, subtly undermining the rival, or calculating the cost/benefit of the relationship. Reassurance needs to focus on loyalty, respect for their position/efforts, and shared long-term security.
