Cancer Communication

I've been told on numerous occasions how cancer men & I suppose women as well, can be very emotional as well as very private & excellent at hiding their feelings at times In the dating realm with a cancer and in communicating with them I am wondering what is the best approach. We have had a go at it once and after many, many mos of giving this thing a rest he has come back around, initiating everything. I care very deeply for this person and am just looking for the cancers opinion related to communication since this seems to have been our fallout to begin with. We have this "Live in the moment" approach to life but at the end of the day my heart belongs to him. He has been trying to see me for some time now and I have been very guarded to agreeing due to my feelings. Although people in general share/like/dislike many different qualities and or preferences, I also know signs do too.....The Crab!

I'm looking for opinions on communication with a cancer.....in regards to feelings, relationships etc.
Our communication has been non stop wonderful....Tells me we get along because I "get him" I just am trying to make sure I truly do......
He keeps telling me he misses me & needs to see me and I am just trying to make things better this time around.....Any cancer insight much appreciated

communication on so many levels is right on, same type of personality. We communicate openly about work & day to day things & share the same interests but when it comes to feelings, we are both guarded and this is where the communication problems begin.

WB, about his chart...no clue. Just know month & day but no time. The last time around he was the one to initiate a serious conversation about what I was looking for in a relationship & at that time I, myself was very open and honest. When it comes to relationship/feelings it seems we are both very much guarded. Lost in translation so to speak....he is attempting to come back around and I just do not want to end up where we did the last time.

crab 12....he wants to know all about me, what I'm up to, if I am seeing anyone, my job, my day......everything just about but when I ask him the Conversation is very much generalized....I mentioned the other day it sometimes feels like a one way conversation...wants to know all the goings on in my life then gives me glimpses of his

You don't know how old he is?

I have known him for going on 4 years, we dated off & on for about a year, took a year away from each other & now he has made his way back relentlessly!
I know month, day and year of birth, however am always reading its the time of birth that is of the utmost importance?
Just now reading the cancer manipulators thread........yikes!

Does he try and make you open up about your feelings?

That's not what acrabbycrab asked.... he said does he try to make you open up about your "feelings". Not... does he talk to you about banal crap... 🙂

So, I'm guessing the answer to that question would be.... No? He doesn't try to get you to open up about your feelings, he sticks to safe topics?

He has in the past, recently topics remain safe

MM! Hi there :-) I'm back! And yes, it is the turtle crab again. I pulled myself away from the situation and we gave it a much needed rest. He is back and my feelings have not changed (Scorpio girl here!) passionate being the key word. It has not went away. Unfortunately, not even time or distance can change how I feel about him. I will not do the pursuing in this situation, however I am also afraid to let him back into my life on a whim considering my feelings toward him. He is very well guarded, and I am just not so sure he is coming from a genuine place. He is saying all the right things but I too am guarded and refuse to fall for his words. Please show me, don't tell me. My mind was clear, or so I thought it was until he started contacting me again......

crab12 ultimately I have figured out the hard way. I just don't know how to be this man's friend, due to how I feel about him and quite honestly unless we have something on a much deeper level I think it best to stay away rather than find myself in a place that don't feel so good. Now that he is back, I'm strong but second guessing everything 😢
