Curiosity: When do Cancers hide from you like kids?

Posted by YourFavoriteDXPMemberI don't get it....why would they do that? How do they do that?
I think Cancers hide from people that they want to be with.
Does that make sense?

Posted by YourFavoriteDXPMemberIndeed! This sign fascinates me. The have this oppositional defiant disorder. They do the opposite of what people do normally when they like someone for which I don't blame them because aquas are the same way. It's just the motivations that are different.Posted by queencancerIt's all good.
I have hid before when wanting someone. That's because I'm all sorts of R words. Lol, no. It could be lots of reasons why.
I feel like a detective trying to solve the mystery with you Crabs.
The fact that you hide from the person you desire is very interesting stuff.click to expand

Posted by aquarius09Hmmm but if they bedded you and act like that? He is still indirect about what he wants from me. Is active on my social media..very sweet but I don't think he wants to be friends with benefits...Posted by YourFavoriteDXPMemberIndeed! This sign fascinates me.

I'm not used to dealing with passive cancers. All the cancers that liked me in my past were indirect in their approach of relaying their interest but their hints were soo obvious. I belejve cancer craves familiarity before taking the leap which is why I think the best way to get a cancer to show its best is friendship first. Be their friend first and let them show you who and what they are.click to expand

Posted by britneybabe26Ain't nobody got time to play guessing games. I don't know what sign you are, but if a guy hasn't used my cellphone number for a week or so, I'll be sure to ask them why they've kept my number when they do decide to message me at their own convenience like months later.

Posted by aquarius09I'm not making excused I'm just confused because he's active with me through social media liking my posts and or comments but through text rarely and yes we don't live in the same state so its not like he can just ask me out
Cancers are shy and insecure, not retarded...unless the cancer is mentally disabled.
Y'all need to stop making excuses for disinterest. I was painfully shy when I was younger but I still found ways to show my interest, if not in person then definitely online or via social media.

Posted by lou.mKeeping me sweet? Yes its long distance but he persued me even though he knew where I live. He took me out on dates when we were in the same state...so I'm thinking yeah he doesn't message me a lot but I know he has feelings for me.. Could it be he's scared because of the long distance? You know about loyalty and stuff
He is done but it's possible he wants to keep you sweet. Don't let him hurt you anymore and still avoid being the jerk he is in reality.
He is in a diff state ....it's not going to happen. If I know there is nothing long term I am not going to bother most cancers are the same.
The diff with me is I always make the cut and just do it. He should be straight with you and end it .
He is keeping you around ....incase ..or for sex etc.
He doesn't respect you and he doesn't deserve your time or respect.
I'm shy ...insecure ..but like it's eight days.
I am really sorry OP i hope you can see his not being straight with you for what it is and that you really do deserve someone who has at least the balls to be straight.

Posted by YourFavoriteDXPMemberI strongly doubt that cancer's desire of the person who's I'm writing about as he already rejected her it seems to me by not wanting to get to know her better. When everything became clear, now he constantly keeps avoiding the person, even online is immediately off when shes on.Posted by queencancerIt's all good.

Posted by aquarius09Oh that I know. It's not actually about one particular guy. I have known at least some more who do that. So that's justice general question.
@taurusmarine
We've already established that your cancer dude is emotionally unavailable and not truly interested. I think you're trying to find things via astrology that tell you what you want to hear.
He's not hiding from your because he likes you. He's hiding from you because he either has another woman/women or big things going on in his life. Your guy's behaviour is sooooooooo blatantly loser like/disinterest that not even a shy, insecure sign like cancer would do if he/she is truly interested.

Posted by britneybabe26Liking pictures and posts can only mean something if he's only doing that with you or very few people. I still texted someone I liked at least once or twice a day. He doesn't have to ask you out, he can just make conversation to show interest. It seems like the dude isn't texting you or being consistent. Consistency shows interest, period!Posted by aquarius09I'm not making excused I'm just confused because he's active with me through social media liking my posts and or comments but through text rarely and yes we don't live in the same state so its not like he can just ask me out

Posted by lou.mWhy is he a jerk thou? We didn't have sex yet...we just had foreplay and after that he's still in touch..if he didn't care he would just ignore me even on social media. But you're saying he only wants sex ? Why doesn't he just tell me he wants friends with benefits.. His silence on this thing makes me confused hahaPosted by britneybabe26No I'm sorry. You are reading too much into Astrology babe and using it to ignore the truth. And the truth is he's an asshole ..and he doesn't have feelings for you.Posted by lou.mKeeping me sweet? Yes its long distance but he persued me even though he knew where I live.

Unfriend him on everything on social media etc. Don't text him again if he contacts you ignore him. That would be my advice. I know you aren't going to take it though.click to expand
Posted by KoniuchaYou mean he only wants sex whenever I happen to be in his city? The thing is we didn't have sex yet..he wanted to but I said no.Posted by britneybabe26It doesn't take much effort to like pictures. I wouldn't look too much into that. I would say he isn't interested in anything serious.Posted by aquarius09I'm not making excused I'm just confused because he's active with me through social media liking my posts and or comments but through text rarely and yes we don't live in the same state so its not like he can just ask me out

Posted by thinktoomuchIf a person is that insecure that they are stressing under the pressure of their love interest not finding them interesting or good enough, then that person needs to work on their self esteem before getting into a relationship or even consider someone. A love interest's job is not to fix your self esteem for you. One needs to do that themselves and then consider a relationship. How is another to love you when you can't love yourself. Either way, actions will always speak louder than words. Shy people find ways no matter how intimidating a person is.Posted by YourFavoriteDXPMemberThats just being insecure about oneself. I´ve done that too, and I am no cancer. It has to due with being insecure about oneself and what one really has to offer and not being able to handle the emotional pressure of maybe actually getting to know someone and they won´t find you good enough.Posted by britneybabe26Years ago, someone posted to DXP that her friend is a Cancer girl.Posted by YourFavoriteDXPMemberI don't get it....why would they do that? How do they do that?
I think Cancers hide from people that they want to be with.
Does that make sense?
She was having trouble with her romantic interest, but she still wanted him badly.
However, when he would call her, she would refuse to answer the phone and would even cry some while the phone was ringing.
So yes, sometimes they act really weird and distant around the one they really desire.
Saying that this is something cancers do in general, wil just serve as yet another way of justifying or making excuses for guys/girls, that just aren´t that interested. And if someone is this insecure about relationships and love as the above mentioned, it still boils down to the same thing: a person so insecure still has more of a selfinterest than an interest in the other person.click to expand

Posted by britneybabe26He's not interested because interested people are consistent. At this point, going off what we've heard from you in your previous threads, you're on his backburner. Could be for various reasons like sex or company or as a back up if things with his main chick doesn't work out.Posted by KoniuchaYou mean he only wants sex whenever I happen to be in his city?

Posted by thinktoomuchYep. Uncertainly/no closure = the finest trick to string someone along.

Posted by thinktoomuchI had a cancer do this last year and I shut his hot and cold shit down after seeing it twice. I have no tolerance for this back and forth and nor can my head handle it. An indecisive/selfish asshole will string aPosted by aquarius09My point exactly. And MANY people here write: thing were great in the beginning. So the cancer did make it known, but then pulls back for various reasons...

Posted by aquarius09Yeah he should be checking in at least sometimes and he only does to ask when will I visit him again.. He is just so hot and we have such a good connection together not only physical attraction.Posted by britneybabe26He's not interested because interested people are consistent.

Posted by britneybabe26All of that is apparently not sufficient for him and that's why he's sporadic. I know a couple where the connection was off the top or so I heard, but I believe it because the dude use to drive 1 and a half hours to come see my girlfriend every other day. You can't have the best connection with someone but without actions, it's utterly useless. I had an insane connection with my ex and intially he was either on the phone with me all the time or coming to see me. The moment the connection fizzled out, his visits and phone time became sporadic.Posted by aquarius09Yeah he should be checking in at least sometimes and he only does to ask when will I visit him again..

Posted by YourFavoriteDXPMemberMakes sense to me.....currently experiencing it and have before with Cancer men
I think Cancers hide from people that they want to be with.

Posted by CancerOnTheCuspYou venture answering, cancer)
What is remarkable is there was a response by an actual Cancer with concurrence by two other Cancers and the conversation carried on as if the question was never answered. Interesting.
