Im a Scorpio female .This Cancer Man did something that was very hurtful ! I called him out on it and now he's treating me like I had no right to confront him about it ! Now he's doing the whole Ignoring/ Disappearing act etc... Is he mad because I caught him in a lie ? Is he embarrassed ? How long does it takes for them to bounce back? I have let the whole situation go on my end( He would know if he would answer the phone )

Anybody out there ever experience this type of behavior with a Cancer Man ? What should I do next ?

You didn't write exactly what happened, so not knowing his side I think If you honestly and deep down know that he did something wrong to you then don't do anything he will come back and if you still want him after all of that then tell him that what he did is something you can't accept if you are going to be involved with him. I don't get why you are calling him and on top of that to tell him you let it go unless you don't mind it happening again.

Whoa! Your bf turned into MIA because he hurt your feelings? You should feel pretty lucky that you're set for life! Although now he's a woman and you'll have to learn to appreciate that change in dynamics. 😛

A lot of the time it's all about the approach. If I charge in all guns-ablaze, even if I feel pretty badly hurt, then he's bound to retreat and become silent on me (i'm with a cancer guy). If I confront him and speak calmly then he'll want to talk and straighten things out right away.

Many of us have very different style s of communicating and expressing ourselves. Since communication is absolutely essential for any relationship, the key is finding our way to the middle ground.

Sorry to hear of your trouble and squabbles with your Cancer.

Perhaps you should also be quiet, and wait for him to come around.

One thing about Crabs: The more you pursue, the harder into the sand they burrow.

Just be quiet for now, and he will probably come around.

He seems to be quite immature..he hurt you...you confront him about it, he hides....
He WILL reappear, but make sure to talk about this, because he will do it again.
Crabs hate conflict and run from it....inside their shells..maybe he is thinking about the best way to face you...

Yeah, Treefrogger is right.

Whatever you do, don't push a Cancer when they are mad or distant.

They will definitely not come around then, even if they were the ones who were wrong in the first place.

Just be yourself, have fun with your friends, and hopefully you will hear from him by the Holidays.

If he doesn't give you a nice Christmas present, then give him a pink slip!!!

SNAP!!!!!!!!!

As far as i know, water sign dont like confrontation, they sometime hiding to gather themself and process and comeback when they are ready. The result of the process may vary.

The choice is being given to your heart. What kind of someone you will hand your heart on. The kind of behaviour sure will appear again in future.

I hope things goes well for you.
