Cancer rules motherhood

The death of a mother is the most devastating thing that can happen co Cancer people. Also, Cancer people can break up with - or even divorce - people who don't get along with their mothers.

Hi!

I agree totally! My Cancer guy had the ultimate Mother...I didn't even try to compete with her! However, she resented anything that I could do better than she could! (Weird!)
I think we should all encourage each other in whatever endeavor!

My Cancer guy now lives with his Mom! I guess they are happy...

I know I am!

Cancer men are wonderful people, but don't marry one unless you get along with his mother, and if you want to have children and pets.

Sometimes there are other aspects that enter into the picture. My Cancer man had no father figure and had no idea how to be a good father...he still doesn't know how...our daughter hates him because he is so selfish and makes her feel like she is always wrong and not good enough, etc...
I took her to his Mom's for Thanksgiving because it is important to me that they try to resolve and have the best possible relationship they can (not perfect...but the best possible)...You see he didn't have time for her during her younger years and now she doesn't have time for him...but family is too important to me to let her throw the gift of a father away..

I am not trying to badmouth him...just keep in mind that not all Cancer men are the same.

Take Care.

My stepfather was a Cancer man and to tell you the truth we fought like cats and dogs. When I was younger I totally couldn't be around him. But as I got older and had a kid of my own he got better. Or should I say 'we' got better. We still liked to fight but I think it was just a routine for us. But when he was on his death bed, I can tell you that I was there fighting for the nurses to make him comfortable. He was a good man, took care of my brother and I (didn't have to being step-children), loved my daughter as if she was truly a blood relative and truly loved my mom. I miss him dearly.

Have a great day,

Star, judging from what you're saying, your husband is "copying" his mother in the relationship department.

You said it!

I never thought about it that way...
I know he is a good person. He just protects his feelings so he won't be hurt...but it comes out looking selfish...
You know I really don't know what sign his Mother is...
Actually, our "holiday" together was odd for me...being with his family after all this time...
It was kinda fun though...I hadn't spent much time with his sisters for years...and we now live in different states.
I know that he and his Mom appreciated what I did by bringing her, thus making her go...
I will continue to bring the two together in whatever manner as long as I feel it necessary. As I have told my daughter...they need to get to know each other better and focus on what they have in common and the positives...
I think he is willing...
I can't bear to let them be strangers to each other...perhaps because I did not know my real Father. (Although I don't remember being without a Father. My Mom remarried when I was 1yr. 10 mo.)

Thanks for giving me food for thought...greater insight...

Hope you all have a wonderful day!
