Getting a Cancer to take a personal interest in you will require a LOT of patience and time.

Even when you are extremely patient and good about giving her time, this doesn't necessarily guarantee that she will come to you.

Also, many of them hold onto secrets that you will probably never know about. IE, she and her boyfriend broke up a year ago and she still wants to date him instead.

Beware of this kind of thing, because it will most likely end up causing you emotional frustration in the process.

Can you talk to any of her friends to find out if she has a boyfriend or if she is still hung up on a previous relationship? Finding that kind of information out is key to knowing whether or not you have a chance.

Sooo... she wants a manly man?... or a stone-cold killer?



Well, one can be a man without being an MMA fighter. Not knocking the sport, as it is cool, but there are serious psychological and physical problems for those guys in the coming years.

I know a guy who did MMA fighting. He got kicked so hard that his jaw got broken and his mouth had to be wired shut for the broken bones to heal. He was hurt for a few months, too.

Not really wise to do that stuff, IMHO.

I agree with all of this, but not the secretly wanting to get back with an ex-bf part.

Well, it doesn't mean that ALL of you are like that. Some of you are, though.

How do I penetrate a female cancer's shell, and win her heart?



Fresco, be patient, very very patient. Also be sensitive and caring. Do not push at anything. Depending on her love experiences she will probably have a strict boundary which you must recognise and never try to breach and in the long run things will begin to smooth out, but as i said, patients is something you must have. Dont shower her with gifts or flowers as this will make her begin to question your motives.

Show her that you have your own life and that your life is so much fun. She'll want to be a part of your life only if it's worth joining, right?

Don't be desperate, needy, and don't be too aggressive either. Be frank, kind, helpful and open with her. Don't always try to contact her, let her miss your company and come to you sometimes. Let her feel safe to share with you her secrets. When a Cancer trusts you, it's a good sign. Try flirting to see if she actually likes you or you're just another best friend. Cancers can confuse people with the best friend/potential mate thin line.

She told me she was single and that she could not be in a relationship with someone who does not train MMA..



This sounds like a test. But I think this is her round about way of telling you she like athletic guys.
Keep pursuing, she may be throwing out obstacles to see if you trip over one and give up.
Aggressive athletic males are my weakness.
Shy and passive are friend zoned.

Are you involved in some sport? You don't need to train in MMA, she will jump on board in whatever you do if you have a passion for it.
