Can

1. Being impulsive. (Especially with my mouth) But now that I'm more self aware, I have definitely taken it down and few notches. I think my Virgo Mars also helps.

2. Being harsh. Not anything im proud of and I've been definitely working on my delivery skills. I'm mostly harsh when fusturated.

3. Being child like. I will always have that side. It's like 60% of me. And of course I have a serious side and when it comes out to play, it comes out to play. I've shocked many.

4. Being tomboyish. Growing up, I was more into "feminine" things but now It's almost non existent.

5. Being loud. Only when I'm happy or goofing off.

6. Impatient. It's so bad that I literally get aches and swirm (sometimes) waiting for something. Every since I was a child.

Can't

1. Anger issues. I definitely don't have these angry outburst like the typical Arian. Its more or so, fusturation. It builds up and in the process, fades away. I hold it in a lot.

2. Wanting to dominate. I'm more so a 50/50 type of person.

3. Being stubborn (My way or the highway attitude). I'm always willing to compromise. And in the case of arguing, if im wrong, I will admit that I'm wrong.

4. Impulsive spender. When I was younger, yes. But now, I'm the one always preaching about managing money properly.

5. Being a cheater. I'd break up with you first. That's just common sense. In fact, if I'm always looking for something new and know I'm a cheater or would cheat, I wouldn't even get into "relationships".

Overall, I think me wanting to improve and my Virgo mars helps a lot. I think my Virgo Mars makes me more logical and responsible.

Number 5 on your "can't" list is the only one that I can't relate to. Everything else is definitely me. I cannot tell a lie... *hangs head in shame*

Depends what book you read.

I fit the "sextrology" book (starsky and cox) cancer defenition, but not the older linda goodman's.

I was more so pertaining to the stereotypes you hear in general or the things you tend to see a lot in different descriptions. I hope that makes sense.

Laziness- I haven't met many people who can keep up with my pace. In pretty much every aspect.

Passiveness- no not at all

Laziness is the big one.

I'm pretty textbook with my sun sign, so it might be easier to mention how I don't relate to it. In this case it would be cooking. I do spend a great deal of time in the kitchen making meals for myself because I have to eat, and I can't dine on bachelor food and take-out all the time. But when it comes to finding great joy in making extravagant meals for an entire family, that is not my thing.

One of the things that I do relate to that I will mention because it is one of my favorite things about being a Cancer, is the feminine energy. I have found it to be a gift to myself and to others, and many Cancer men still know how to be a man.

@Gooober
In regards to #5 on your can't list, I think a contributing factor of my attraction towards Arian energy is because I have a lot of faith in their devotion to their partners. Of course, all signs can and have been unfaithful, but rams just seem more likely to toss out a short-lived ultimatum before going on to new things instead of cheating. Either step up, or step out with them.

In your CAN list, I can relate to #3 (I can be, but I can also be really serious) and #5 (only seems to be when I get to be really engaged in a conversation).
In your CAN'T list, I can be stubborn but I am always open to compromise when it comes to reasonable people.

Yeah, that's what I should have said. Only when it comes to reasonable people.

Taurus sun.

Stick-in-the-mud: it's not that I can't have fun. I'm just cautious. Someone has to be.
Though, I'll admit I'm a pessimist, so...
My rising and moon do balance it out a bit.

I agree with the being cautious part. Very understandable.

I think it's awesome that you're fond of your feminine energy. I like my masculine energy also.

I'm glad someone see's how seriously some rams take relationships and how loyal we are.

Based on my personality and experiences and feedback from honest people about how I come across:

I don't relate to being jealous, controlling (aside from self control) and vengeful.

I do relate to being strong willed, sexual and intuitive.

Absolutely I do. I don't think I have seen such fierce loyalty from any other sign once that devotion has set in.

To be honest, I can tolerate anything.

I have a very low attention span coupled with arrogance which means I could care less what you think of me and my sign and I'm probably busy thinking about other things like what nail polish color I'm going to choose for my next manicure session while the person is venting their hatred towards me or whatever group they think I represent.

Lol, was this comment towards me?
