(Sorry for my english, I'm french 🙂

Ok so I met this cancer male 2 months ago through a mutual friend. At first, he showed me that he wanted to spend some time together and get to know me. We've seen each other a few times, then he kept breaking off our plans.

I haven't heard from him during the Holidays so I sent him a text a 2 days ago asking if I did something wrong. He replied 2 hours later telling me that I was a good person and that I did nothing wrong. Yesterday morning he sent me another message telling me he couldn't figure out why I would think that and then proceeded to tell me that he was sorry if he ever hurt me and that he wanted to talk to me on the phone about it.

When he called, he apologized numerous times and told me this is how he reacts. He gets people close to him and then he backs off and he doesn't know why he does that.

He sounded so sad the whole time. He told me he didn't wanted to hurt me and that he had respect for me but isn't there yet. Nothing never happened between us two. We haven't even kissed. I was wondering if it meant that it's "over" for good or is it still possible?

He told me he hasn't felt good in 3 years and is moody because he has no job and I feel like he's that way because he feels he can't provide right now.. I don't know.. I might be wrong..

HELP!

Just let it go and give him space. If he wants you he will come back around and show you. Not with his words but his actions. Cancer men say a lot of things good and bad. Ive noticed when they are unsure they push and pull. But it's when his actions match his words you'll know it's real. They don't play around when they really want something with you. So if it's not there for him yet then don't force it just let him figure out what he wants and in the mean time do your thing without him.

I'm just like him. When I get close to someone new, I push them away because I'm scared. After I do this, I want them to chase me so we can be together. It also makes me feel loved and wanted. It's definitely messed up. I need help with that!!

I am a cancer btw

I'm an aries and I know we can be pushy so I tamed this side of me to be more nurturing to him... should I give him more space or pursue him? I'm lost haha

Please please aries save yourself endless pain that this cancer will eventually bestow on you and back off now...

He will only put water on your fire. Put out your energy and make your life miserable hell...

It's only been 2 months and look at the negative energy he is dishing out already. RUN

Drop the ball and walk away. Don't play games.
