Virgos Admire Accuracy and Analysis
The most common trait associated with the Virgo male is analytical thought and a borderline pedantic desire to adhere to rules and regulations. Virgos tend to take rules and laws very seriously, making relationships with them somewhat more complicated for those like Capricorns who might like to bend the rules.
However, strict adherence to rules typically means that Virgos follow through with their promises. It also means that Virgos tend to be relatively trustworthy.
The drive to analyze and understand makes Virgos great scientists and engineers. Their perfectionism can lead to demanding the best from themselves and the people they get closest to, such as romantic partners and their children.
It can be a frustrating trait in certain relationship scenarios. Women who are not prone to openly sharing their motivations or feelings may find the scrutiny of a Virgo man intense or unbearable. On the positive side, a Virgo man’s analytical nature may generate the ability to understand the desires and drives of other people, which can make them very conscientious partners.

Virgos Draw Inspiration from Helping Others or the Greater Good
In general, individuals born under the Virgo sign have a deep calling to offer service to others. This sense of community obligation may impact their choice of career by pushing them into the public sector, or it may simply influence the way they interact with other people.
Being able to help others out, whether it’s offering good advice to a friend or working with those going through substance abuse problems is a fulfilling experience for a Virgo.
Virgos want to put their analytical prowess to work for the benefit of the greater good. However, the downside of the drive to give back is that Virgos struggle with a constant sense of obligation and duty to the people in their lives and their broader community. That sense of obligation can also bleed over into romantic relationships, making some partners seem more like a chore than a love interest.

What Some View as Modest, Others See as Repressed

However, that doesn’t mean that they are truly virginal or repressed. While other people may see it that way, readings of Virgos as repressed often result from a very topical review of someone’s personality. Virgos can be very open and willing to share in the right circumstances. However, they tend not to broadcast so much as to open up with someone they trust.

Virgos Can Come Across as Critical
Given their focus on perfection and analysis, some people may see Virgos as hypercritical.

Watch Out for the Dark Side of Personal Drive

Also, Virgo men may resent and push back against the attempts of a Capricorn woman to change or mold them into a perfect partner. While management may be an inherent skill of Capricorn women, Virgo men don’t necessarily take management well. The overlap of ambition and practical focus in both partners can mean instant connection or slowly simmering resentment.
People tend to loathe aspects of themselves that they recognize in others, which could have negative consequences for Virgo men pursuing Capricorn women.
Virgos and Capricorns Tend to Have Innate Compatibility
Because both signs are practical and focused, Capricorns and Virgos have a lot of similar, complimentary traits. Those traits can provide an excellent foundation for a powerful love.

For a long-term pairing to work, both partners should commit to frequently emotionally reconnecting with one another. Provided that they can find common ground, a Virgo man and Capricorn woman can help one another achieve goals and experience emotional and social fulfillment.
