Can cancers tell when someone likes them?

I’m a Capricorn female who just realized I have a crush on my cancer friend. I met him through work, so I never let myself consider it before.

I’m changing jobs now, and it suddenly made sense to me why he was always looking for me and standing near me at every industry event for the past two years.

I’m not really good at being flirty. I did go out of my way to have some one-on-one time with him (not a date) where we got to hang out a bit and chat. Just chatting and getting to know each other.

Cancers—is that kind of interaction usually enough for you to pick up on if a girl likes you?

I can’t tell anything unless you legit say I want you I will assume you are merely friendly. I’m totally clueless

I think you can tell more when they like you.

Yes.. but I play dumb until they tell me str8 up..
