Cancer Guy ignored my msg . Now what ?

Hello everyone !!

So , I've been on here twice about this Cancer guy who's my coworker & I believe he likes me . He appears to have all the confidence in the world , but get really shy when talking to me . He also does things to make me laugh & even started wearing men's tanks around our job so he could get my attention . I know b/c he blurred it out so loud one day that I could hear it & everyone else in the store could too . Lol . Long story short , I flirted back . Not as much as I really wanted too , but I didn't really ignore him either. Recently he asked me questions about my full-time job & I answered as best as I could . Apparently he got ripped off at one of the locations & I felt bad so I wanted to offer him the friends & family discount . I sent him a msg , he saw it & ignored it ?... After we had just had the convo the day before . Why would he do that ? I'm trying not to jump to conclusions & assume the worst . But I won't pretend that it didn't hurt me . I wouldn't just flat out ignore him like that . That's rude , lol . Even if he was busy , it's still rude . What do you all think ? Any advice for me ?

I know I'm not a Cancer guy, but usually when something like that happens it's because I didn't want to answer them back in that moment, and I think to myself I'll just answer back in a little while and then I forget to answer back altogether. It usually isn't because I'm trying to be rude, so it could be that he just did the same. And also, sometimes I'll get a msg that I can't answer in that exact moment I read it so I'll say to myself I'll do it later and then...of course I'll forget. It could be that either of those things...or something else. But being a Cancer that's what happens to me sometimes.

That makes sense ... and you might be right . Lol . I saw him about 2 or 3 days after , when I went to visit my job , and he didn't say anything . He just looked at me w/ a slight smile . Almost as if he wanted to say something , but was afraid of my reaction . Like a cute shy little boy , lol. I didn't know what to do , so I just smiled back , lol . He always acts like he's afraid of me , but I don't want him to be .

Oh my gosh! Us cancers are extremely shy! You should have went up to him and said hello, ask how he was doing. Sometimes we get fearful of rejection? I mean even though you clearly don't seem like you would reject him, we still have this innate fear about that kind of thing. I mean you could always message him and say, "hey it was good seeing you the other day, how have you been these days? 🙂" and see what happens...and I mean at that point if he blatantly ignore's you, there's something up, but I'd give it another try to see how he reacts? It's possible he's just a nervous guy. I know I'm always nervous and always very cautious of people. It's just in my nature, it might be in his as well.

Lol yes , I've heard Cancers are extremely shy . But I think I'll wait until I see him again, instead of trying to talk to him online . I feel like it'd be better that way , I can actually see his reaction . But nah , I don't think he was being malicious . Especially seeing as how we just had a good convo the day before .

I smiled back , so I didn't really ignore him . I'm cautious of people too . It's in my nature as well . So , I honestly didn't know what to do or say other than what he did , lol .
