Cancer Guy

There is this cancer guy whom I like and I am pretty sure he likes me too. He is always staring at me, giving me compliments, and acts nervous when I am around him, etc... Sometimes he does this for a period of time and then he will stop for a while. Then repeat. This has been going on for 5 months now. I actually just wrote him a message last night, telling him that I like him. I'm not sure if he has gotten it yet, but I have seen him today and he was acting a little more nervous than usual. Then I over heard him talking to his friends saying that he is going to hang with this girl tonight and see where it ends up. I never hear him talking about other girls and he said it kind of loud, like I was suppossed to hear this. Would he might try to make me jealous? Does he not like me? I read most of the Cancer posts on here and just thought I could use some extra insight. Thanks.

AquariusRose18,

Your post is a mirror image of what I have been going through. I have the same experience that you have now. In my case, this has been going on for almost three years. Mine acts nervous around me, will talk to everyone else and ignore me at times. He would compliment me, but also compliment others in our work group too. He has a nonchalant way of expressing himself and apparently tries not to give himself away. He does intentionally talk about other girls to me and mention them to people that we both know. He does this so that I can hear. Fine, I never told him that I was interested in him, but we both are cautious around each other. There were times when I would invite to go with me shopping in a casual way. He would say that he hates shopping and that it was a nice thought, but he will pass. Ok, I accepted that. O get the feeling that he is hot and cold, but yet, will act strange. He wants attention, and yet he will lock himself up in his office and not interact with me. Sometimes I would feel as though he has something against me, but for no reason. He doesn't communicate, so it remains a puzzle to me. We work together. The other problem is, he is my boss. We are both the same age, so we have many things in common generation wise. I also think that if I were to leave my current job, hopefully he will come out and say something to me. Based on what the message boards say, Cancers are very indirect, cautious, scared of getting hurt and noncommunicative. Well, I say, who isn't? Perhaps it is extreme for them. In your case, I think he is interested in you, but he wants to see how you will react to the fact that he is talking about other girls. They love to feed on jealousy it appears. After almost three years, I am about to call it quits with mine. Hopefully one of them will get brave and be real. What else does your Cancer interest do?

Actually he does exactly the same thing. I think he gave up on me though because he responded with "I'm probably going to have a girlfriend." So now I think I need to get over him and move on. I am an aqua and I don't think I could deal with this hot and cold type of thing. I like a guy to tell me straight out that he likes me.
