OK, I've been discovering just how much this cancerian male friend has lied to me...I know that there's nothing astrological about lying...anyone will/can...but I read somewhere that Cancerians do tend to lie a lot....????

My cancer mom lied a lot to my scorpio dad in order to keep peace in the house. His raging hormones have greatly subsided, and there is no more lying on her part.
My bizzaro cancer cousin lies a lot to cover his tracks.
i am not sure about how other cancers are but my cancer is so manipulative and he is such a liar, just so he can get things done his way......i could never be like that(he says things just to keep me interested).....sometimes i even wondered if he was into me, but they say that with a cancer you always know where you are, if they are into you you know it and viceversa, there is no place for in between......could this be true???
I tend to be very secretive as opposed to lying. I do not like people in my business unless I invite them. Some people don't perceive this well because they then think that maybe I am lying about something just because I am not that forth coming with my business. I do not like being lied to so I try to be as open an honest as possible when asked a question. Also lies catch up to you in the end.

Cancer's live by the "What they don't know, can't hurt you" creed. They feel that hiding something is different from actually lying because hiding something can be seen more as an Action versus lying as more of verbal dishonesty. All of the Cancers I know tend to lie alot for no reason, but I think they do it mostly when they feel the truth can damage or harm their reputation or lower their character
it could also be that they live in denial. once i told my cancer guy that i have met somebody else and i am moving on and he didn't belive me at all, and when i got the guy to answer my phone when the cancer guy called he said that i got someone from the street to answer the phone on purpose.and it is true, he doean't want to know the things that he thinks may hurt him, he just brushes them away....or changes the subject
I see it more like a protection of privacy than lying. There are times when people will just ask you somethings, which you would rather keep it private & when you refuse to tell them, they will keep probing for the answer. The only way to shove these nosy parker off, is to give them an answer, be it a lie. People who does not respect the privacy of other people, does not deserve any respect as well as the truth. Let a make-believe satisfy their curiosity.
It is very true, as mentioned above, whatever people doesnt know about you, will not harm you. I would not risk telling people things that they in turn will be able to use it against me. People are changeable. Today, they could be your friend, tomorrow, some disagreement & they can suddenly turn against you. Whatever you had shared, became a weapon against you.
to be honest what you are saying my dear flyingfoxes, tends to be my way of dealing with things too, it may be due to my moon in cancer, my cancer guy drives me crazy asking me over and over again till he gets an answer from me, but i don't like to that, i will only ask once.... question for you guys...how can you get a cancer to open up or tell/answer you certain questions, do you tell him that you love him and that you're his and then ask jokingly, or do you just ask?

"I would not risk telling people things that they in turn will be able to use it against me."
Very understandable. But the problem? Cancers can't stand when this very same thing happens to them. They HATE to be lied to. For some reason when they feel they have to lie, they justify it almost with that "I did it so I wouldn't hurt your feelings" creed, but the Minute someone uses the same philosophy on them, they don't want to hear any excuses. A Lie is a lie. Yes, people make mistakes but the problem is, Cancers don't realize that some people are more likely to lose more respect for the person that used Evil to do good (used a lie to salvage someone else's feelings).
