I was just wondering about something. Someone once told me to forget about pursuing this guy I used to like because he didn't have the capacity to be in a relationship. I didn't get much more information out of this person so I was just wondering what excactly does that mean, if someone does not have the capacity to be in a relationship?

I would be very careful taking this at face value because the person telling you this usually had ulterior motives.

 

If a woman told you this she probably wants him and feels dejected that she wasn't able to get him so now she's playing sour grapes.

 

If a guy told you this he might actually want you for himself.

 

So if I were you I would not automatically assume that he ( (the felloe you are interested in) doesnt have the capability for a relationship. Examine the source of this information instead.

It is generally meant to mean that a person doesn't have the proper focus that is needed in order to be in a relationship. Common symptoms are: emotional unavailability, not much need for physical contact, low sex drive. These people can be incredibly driven and genuine in their daily lives, but feel no need for companionship. Usually they are of one of two extremes: incredibly career based, or incredibly apathetic & lazy. A person's capacity is judged by their skills relating to the task at hand. For example, I have a very low capacity when it comes to gym activities, despite taking time for walks and exercise.

It means he never will with you or anyone else. Forget them.
