Cancer and Scorpio Relationship

So I have been seeing this Scorpio guy for the past two months (I am a Cancer male). We are taking it slow as we want to get to know each other and really want to establish a relationship by seeing where this goes. We have EVERYTHING in common and I have never felt so comfortable around him. I love his strong character and he loves my sense of humor and ease with myself. I really like him and though he is a typical scorpio (hides his emotion with the most stolid mask and acts very cold and aloof!) I can tell he likes me by the way he treats me compared to others around him. Plus, he gives that LOOK that Scorpio's give that tells it all. Plus, recently we went dancing, and I caught him looking at me and each time my eyes met his, he'd turn away nervously and smirk to himself. He also tends to be a bit shy around me after a while. For example, when he asked me to meet his friends for an outing, his voice became very soft and timid. Normally he is a very dominate and confident man, but he seems to be very timid around me at times.
Mind you, we have not been intimate yet as we truly do want to establish a rapport. I know it takes a while for them to open up, but I find my Cancer sensitivity and moodiness getting the best of me. For example, one week when we text, he will respond quick and be attentive. Others he will take a million years to respond. And some he won't respond at all, such as this week when I texted him on Tuesday just to say how are you and Friday to see if he wanted to meet up this weekend. I know Scorpios do not trust AT ALL and I am the typical Cancer where I am loyal and totally dedicated. I even told him recently that even though he is busy (he has a tremendously demanding job and he was truly sincere when he told me) I still want to get to know him and see where it goes, and he was quite happy. But still, these not responding when I text him from time to time (really once a week....I don't want to appear needy and I know Scorpios need space) are just driving me mad and I find myself wondering if I misread him, sulking into insecurity and sadness. My gut says to be patient and he will come around and I am so into this guy so much that I will wait until the end of the world for him to open up, and as a stubbon Cancer, I won't give up on him (my instincts just tell me he's the one too - it's that feeling where you just KNOW. I got it from the first date). Could I have advice from any Scropios dating cancers on this?

I am a cancer female and my fiance is a scorpio male....he came on strong...i was apprehensive...he did a disappearing act...i didnt follow...i gave him his space and kept busy with my life...i was very calm with the whole thing because as a cancer...a scorpio is drawn to us...he wants to dissect us and understand us because there is an unspoken level of communication between us....

my advice:

do not be needy! do not take his non-text back as a sign he isnt interested...if hes looking at u, he's interested
he is probably doing his own thing...

be busy with ur own life...be the interesting person u are...he will be enchanted by your confidence and mystery

Thank you so much! The part where you wrote "be the interesting person you are" made me smile 🙂

And yes I did take the non-texting as a lack of interest and it confused me because, as you noticed, he looked at me and smiled and he was really happy when I told him I still want to get to know him despite his busy work schedule. But this put me at ease. Thank you!

Hello!

Yes, his job is quite demanding unfortunately but I am so into this person that it doesn't bother me. I am sure that once he opens himself up more, he will be all that I am looking for and more. I sense it. I have never never EVER felt this certain about anyone before. They say that Cancer and Scorpio are intuitive with each other and with this one, I sense what he feels and thinks without even him saying it. Yes, Cancer can be very cold and they put you through a lot of tests because they trust no one. Of course, as a Cancer, this very thought can even hurt us that someone would put us through tests when we have already displayed a keen interest (and a Cancer love is precious and devoted). But Scorpios just want to be sure. I have been speaking to a lot of Scoprios and they told me that Scorpios need to recharge once they start developing high feelings for someone and they cancel and block themselves away from everyone just to think and get a grip on themselves. I am assuming that the no texting is him trying to get a grip on his emotions for me? (which sounds flattering!! hehehe)

So I'm assuming this is what is going on?

Of course, as a typical Cancers, I would take a sudden stop of texting (and we never really texted much anyways) as a sign of disintrest and I ended up mopping and sobbing, and wondering what the hell went wrong when everything was fine and I KNEW I did nothing wrong and I KNOW he is interested in me. But my gut and instincts told me to be patient and all is fine. So I am going to be patient and as you said , be my charming and compassionate Cancer self 😉

Will do! Any other fellow Cancers who are with or have dated scropios are welcome to contribute as well!

i am a cancer female who had a scorpio male bf years back... GOOD LORD is all I have to say. You are right when you say that the connection is insanely intense and you feel comfortable around them like you've known them forever.... but at the same time the SAME situation you are describing. Not getting back to you. OMG it use to drive me INSANEEEEE. There was literally a period of THREE WEEKS that he ignored me.... but I started to get so use to that crap that I could predict to the DAY when he would finally get back in contact. I got GOOD at it! .... Needless to say I got tired of his crap (and the fact that he moved away and we were trying to have a long distance relationship... WHICH he ended up cheating!) and I ended it and didn't talk to him for over a year. Then one day he magically pops up requesting me as a friend on FB. Now we are very close friends. We travel together and visit each other when we can. No more love interest, just pure friendship and I am SO glad that still exists because it's like how we use to be back in the day but without any sexual tension or frustration!

So I'm a Scorpio and my boyfriend is a cancer.. When I first met him it was like OMG it was love at first sight... Sparks definitely flew around.. So my friend she mentioned to him that I liked him and he just smiled about it But never really said anything.. It was until one day he started talking to me and said oh the heat are playing so keep me up to date with the score and that night I went over to his house.. We watched some football and ate.. Weeks went by and it was wonderful he was all that I ever wanted in a man.. The third day into knowing each other, he introduced me to his parents.. Wonderful family.. So I didn't accept him at first because he was into astrology and me being a practicing Christian or at least believing in God I didn't believe in those things so he kind of distances himself.. I apologized sent him like 23 pages of how I felt and we were back to normal.. It's been 7 months now that we have been together.. He wold regroup back into is shell when I hurt him.. He would constantly flirt with girls right in front of me and just outwardly like disregard me like I wasn't even there beside him.. He told me that he does those tings because I don't think the way that he does.. He wants me to use my brain instead of always lashing out on him.. I told him that the way he does things brings out the worst in me so he went back to ignoring me.. I built a strong foundation with his parents especially his mom she loves me.. The thing is being that I'm a Scorpio , I'm very jealous and I don't want him at least trying to talk to other girls and he knows that I'm a very jealous person.. We have Been on and off on And off on and off for 7 months straight.. Recently, I got really upset because he was just trying to hide is phone from me.. He was texting some hoar talking about she looks beautiful and she sent a pic of her in her underwear and sent it to him and he called her beautiful you know just flirting with her.. I ignored him and I told him to take me one so I gathered all of my things that were at his house and he was jokingly saying in the car that he thought that I was in love with him and that he doesn't even care about those girls he just wants to know how they think.. He said that I didn't even know what he had planned for the both of us.. He probably was planning for us to go on vacation and set up something really romantic.. He also said that he hates when I don't understand him and See his point of view on things.. He places his friends

Parigino88: Hi, I have been dating a Scorpio guy for about 2 months. He is very affectionate and as a Cancer, I have gotten attached. I feel very comfortable around him, like I could be myself and share anything with him. I feel like we are similar in so many ways. I can relate to you about the texting and calls. The first month everything was perfect, however the past week he has been a little distant. He will not reply to some of my texts or call me like he used to and trying to plan a date night is tough, since he is the "spur of the moment" kinda guy and as a Cancer, I need to plan everything. I don't want to seem needy, so I am trying to give him space. I agree with you, my emotions and insecurities are getting the best of me and making me wonder if he is still interested and it makes me sad. I know I need to be patient and give him time. He really hasn't a given me a reason to worry. He does tell me that I think too much and just enjoy the moments.

Arielle83: Thank you for your advice. It has made me feel a bit confident in this hope to be relationship. As I mentioned above I know I need to give him space and he will come around. If he doesn't, than he wasn't meant to be in my life.
