He is talking to this girl from work and hiding it from me cuz I dont understand this side of him and get mad(which we have talked about it and he says he understands and is going to hang in there while i work it out). I have been hurt before, yes and I also take offence to females flirting with my man. He of course love the ego boost so IDK what to do. I compliment him again and agin cuz i know cancers are insecure. What else can I do to keep his attention on me and only me— Is that possible w a cancer? I have read on here that they are extremely loyal but have very stong emotional needs so how do I satisfy that? This chick from work is a Cap and they are supposedly really sexualy appealing to Cancer men from what I have read. I smelled a sent on him out of the blue one day after he got off work. I asked where it came from n he got mad at so I said I was sorry and forgot bout it till he left his facebook open and i went to check my email but saw this message about him asking her what she does besides work all the time. So yes I looked... She said not much you and he said he plays his ps3 and not much other than that. So nowhere was I even mentioned. WHAT is this?? Should I worry??

You guys are both really young yeah?

You both seem to have maturity issues. His response to you being upset that he "understands and is going to hang in there while i [you] work it out" shows a complete disregard for your feelings. On the other hand, you have some major insecurity issues to deal with. We have ALL been hurt before. You cannot go into a relationship afraid that he will leave you or cheat. Don't be oblivious to sign if they start coming, but don't go in waiting for it.

Also, your description of his facebook conversation goes like this:

Him: So what other stuff do you do besides work?
Her: Not much you?
Him: Not much, some PS3 and stuff.

Right?

You are mad about that? People will have friends. Does the first thing out of his mouth have to be "I have a girlfriend and she will kill us if I don't mention her first."? He didn't flirt with her. He didn't ask her to come play too.

Summary: You need higher self esteem. He doesn't respect you and thinks you are a "silly emotional girl" and that you need to "fix" yourself.

Yea, you are right. I was just wondering if this a sign of him wanting to get to know her better and why?? I dont have low self esteem, well I didnt relly before he insists on being night in shining armor to every girl that has a problem. I love him of rhis big heart but I think if it makes me uncomfortable then maybe he wouldnot do it. I get hit on everytime I leave the house, I know I am not ugly at all and I have a wonderful personality but yes I have trust issues. Cancers are infamous for their shell like attitude. They aren't open about their feelings and tend to withdraw everytime there is a problem. Its annoying but other than that he is amazing! I dont hang out w guys or talk to them out of respect for him so why would he?? Oh, and ALL my friends were guys b4 him. But they were flirty friends and I saw it made him understandably uneasy so I put an end to it. So y out of the blue does he do this??

Crabs thrive on female admiration and they have many gal friends. Take it or leave it. My crab has almost all GIRLS in his facebook account. When we started dating there were some problems due to my own insecurity..But as time went by, I realized there was nothing really compromising and relaxed. he gets the occasional comment on a photo and I dont mind really, but I pretend I am jealous because he loves it!!
the fact that you left your friends for him (which I cant understand in the least!! I mean your friends!!! for a guy!!) doesnt mean that he HAS to do the same for you. and the fact you stopped contact to everybody else for him doesnt mean he will do the same. and if you start making scenes he will just go into his shell and wont come back.
Be more self assured and relax..you can make a teasing comment but dont get mad at him, there was nothing compromising in that mini conversation!!!!!
You say your self esteem is OK, but I doubt it. Try to trust him..It is certainly tiring to be told off, and to be persecuted..let him be!!!

yes i did drop my overly flirtatios friends. They were bein rude as idk what. As for the ones that didnt disrespect us they stayed as a part of my life. I love him and they cant except that n get all mean and jealous n wanna be like that then they werent true friends. As for this I was just aswking for advice. We went over to one of his g/fs house tonight and she was FLIRTING n I mean flirting w him rite in front of my face. I laughed it off and he spent the rest of the night kissing and telling me how much he loved me, and laughing at her for even thinking she had a chance lol. All I was asking for was advice. Never said I went off on him all the time. He really never even sees me mad. any hoo time ta get off here n snuggle up w hijm ta watch a movie. Thanks anyways

yes they do cheat and often too but they stay with the other woman for a long time especially if kids are involved. My cancer and I were together for 17 yrs and he got 2 women pregnant while he was with me. I stayed after forgiving him but he never changed and one of the women would make fun of me. sorry to be so blunt but I thought you should know what I went through and we have 3 kids together. sometimes I wonder if he even thinks about me when he's with this woman smh

I'm gonna have to own up to my shit here...I'm a cancer male ...and yes I have cheated

I was in a 3 yr relationship with a virgo. Virgo and I had our problems lonnng before leo ever came into the picture. Virgo and I split up. Virgo moved on to someone else. A year and a half later, I met leo. The *cheating* started when leo and I took our second break from each other. Virgo was still with her bf, I was still with leo. The only one NOT cheating was leo (and maybe virgo's bf).

Sometimes, I just felt virgo *understood me* better than leo - and in many ways virgo did. Guess I wanted that feeling. Maybe it was a nostalgia thing for me or maybe I was just a prick and selfish. Eventually I broke it off with virgo for good, but leo iced me for over a yr - we just recently got back together. Never will do that again, but it is part of my past. I am committed to being loyal to her, but that's not how it always was.

Every sign regardless of reputation have those in them that cheat. There is no such thing as a perfect, NEVER EVER cheat sign.

People make mistakes. Some evolve. Some don't.

CrabbyCrab,

Just curious, but why in the hell do you think a Leo woman and a Cancer man will ever work out?

Do you like torturing yourself?
Never thought about it in terms of signs - didn't know much about that but learning since been on dxp. 😉

I just feel good when I'm with her, accepted. And I know she gets something from me. We had arguments, talk it out, hugs and kisses and forgive and move on. She was always so positive. I don't even want to imagine my life without her.

She's definitely a leo tho. She can have some conniption fits, then be perfectly happy a few hrs later like nothing ever happened. Eventually, I saw humor in it all, even cute, cause you would swear she's done with ya, but nope. Just mad. That's all. LOL

It took us 5 yrs to figure us out. It took a LOT of work on BOTH sides. So it totally sucks we're back at square one just cause I was stupid, Stupid, STUPID. 😢

They are Notorious ... the only crabs I ever had close encounters with were my bosses, the current is a crab who admits that he loves his wife so much and he buys her a lot of expensive gifts but he keeps her away from his life ( they both live in different countries !!!! ) Funny enough both crabs had crush on me .. me being the little tiny carefree girl who they cannot reach out to and be intimate with since I know their shit and I wouldn't take the risk ...

so yeah, they cheat but only when they get the disappointment of a life time from their partners but even with that they will still stick around and will hoId on to them at any given cost . But I must admit they are smart cheaters and they are playing it very well.

He can have both a wife and a mistress and he might love the mistress more than his wife but he will never ever leave his wife if there are kids involved or if he has Ego issues then everyone involved will suffer ... The problem with a mature cancer man if he clutches on you , you are his property forever especially if he is a rich man but only and if he really likes you and you add sort of new edge to his hectic life, otherwise he will have fun for a while ...
