It sounds like the switch has flipped. He was into you, and you were into him, and now you're too into him and that's not what he wants. However long you were together/not-together, just go silent for a while. I mean... a while. Not a couple of days. More like three weeks.

However, that whole thing about your birthday weekend? Oh hell no. I'd break up over that, for sure.
How awful is that! Why would he not want her to be into him? Are all cancer men like this? They go silent on you when they sense you like them a lot? They back off? What's with the games? Why would he persue in the first place and then back away....

I'm pretty much already over him, the more time we spend not talking the more pissed off I get.

He doesn't trust you. He liked you and when he found out you had a bf he gave you that ultimatum for him to distance and because he probably didn't think you'd break up a 4 yr relationship just to fool around with a guy you barely knew.

Cancer thinks long term and you seem too easy to bend plus your weird banter is off putting. He should be testing you since you've proven you lack loyalty but it sounds like he cbf.

Sorry but when everything is shown to a cancer, and we don't like it, we really couldn't give a fuck. His excuses reflect how little he cares about how lame you think they are.

I've told a guy I'm painting my nails and making papier-mâché for him to realise I couldn't give a fuck. This is the vagueness of a cancer, but in all honesty it just reflects his lack of respect towards you.

He can't trust you.

Thanks for being so brutally honest. I needed that. I was blinded by how hot he was and how he made me feel physically that I ignored all his lame excuses....I am a lot smarter than that...I refuse to be treated like a fool. A guy who wants to be with me wouldn't treat like me that. 😢 😢 😢

There you go girl! You'll be fine.

"Testing" people, as Arielle83 puts it, with a series of tests that you don't know are happening, and don't know if you've passed or failed, is a bunch of bullshit in and of itself.

Cancer guys I know in real life have a thing for Leo females. So be a Leo female lol
Haha. I'll try. I'm thinking this scorpio thing might last me a lifetime.


Um...update...we still haven't talked..at all since Friday. I deleted his number out of my contacts and call log in case I got the urge to drunk text him. So if we ever talk again he is going to have to start the conversation. It's been a week since we've seen each other.

I creeped on his moms FB (because he doesn't use his at all) and she posted about how he is going back home in December. We talked before about him going back for Christmas...so idk if he is going to stay or not. Hopefully he stays so I never have to deal with him again. It hurts...but I feel a lot stronger and wiser for not putting up with his crap.
