Cancer guys, How do you act when you are jealous?
How Cancer Men Typically React to Jealousy
Cancer men often respond to jealousy with silence or withdrawal. They may appear quiet, stare blankly, or fix their gaze without expressing their feelings openly. This behavior reflects their emotional sensitivity and tendency to internalize feelings rather than show them directly.
yeah old dude is jealous but lacks sufficient incentive or pride to intervene. If he won't man up and say something he deserves whatever sadness may befall him.
It's apart of their nature why fight it or provoke it?
Really? what if they want to talk to you, do they jsut stare at you then too? Cancer guy i like but havent talked to in 3 months was right behind me the other day but said nothing :/
Personally, I bottle it. I try to act like it doesn't bother me, because I know that is the "RIGHT" thing to do. I'm often conflicted with what I know is morally right and acceptible and how I truly feel. This usually ends up in an explosion somewhere down the line, about something completely unrelated, but in retrospect, was derived from these feelings.
I think it comes from an innate fear of rejection. Like "What if I get pissed about this and this person leaves me, or what if I say the wrong thing in my anger, or blah blah blah blah." You know the deal. I too have tried to learn to express myself in the moment so these blowups don't happen. IDK about you - but something either doesn't phase me at all or takes me to that snapping point instantly. There's really no middle ground for me. If I don't care, I don't care. If it offended me, it REALLY offended me.
Crab rage is the worst. I hate the whole "kindness is weakness" thing. I promise you. I can rip your face off like you have NEVER seen before. I think its dually painful, because the people trust that we are these passive, pushover types, and then when it's flame on - not only are they blown away by the intensity we have, but the pain from our words couple it. Don't know about you other crabs - but I have an extremely poignant tongue.

That's exactly it. When I get jealous (only happened once), I get the quiet blank face just like OP said.
I know the crab rage all too well; defined most of my life until I graduated high school. Funny part is, I've gotten so good at handling my own anger that it makes me furious when someone else doesn't have the same restraint.

if the girl you like is getting hit on by others guys, or if she is talking to other guys, do you get jealous? If you do, how do you act?
The crab i know just goes quiet and gets a blank look on his face. he'll either stare at us or keep his gaze fixed on something, although you can kind of tell he's listening. is this him being jealous?
if so, i feel kind of bad.
