First date with Cancer Man no kiss?

Why a Cancer Man May Not Kiss on a First Date

A Cancer man may not kiss on a first date because he wants to feel comfortable first, move slowly, or avoid giving the wrong impression. In real situations, many Cancer men show interest by staying close, keeping the conversation going, or asking to see you again rather than making an immediate move. If he seemed engaged but held back, that often points to caution, not lack of attraction.

Hello everyone :-)

So I had a date with this guy who I really like and he happens to be a Cancer. He drove me for a nice dinner, we had a super conversation and then he asks me if I want to go bCk to his place and chill for a bit. I said yes why not. So at home he was showing me his house, he lauded on the sofa and I sat and we talked and laughed. The thing is he never made a move on me. Didn't try to touch me except once on my hand, didn't try to kiss me. Was asking me things like how do I like to wear my hair, and that I have a good style. When it was time to say good bye he put on Chapstick Nd I though he will kiss me on the lips but nothing just a big kiss on the cheek and squeezed me hard. I don't understand and I'm kinda confused. Is this normal. Is he just a gentleman? I would be sad he didn't feel the same about me. I'm a Gemini.
Thank you

You're doing well, don't over think it! Let him warm up to you some more, too soon. A great sign is he brought you back to his home, they are VERY protective of their sanctuary! 🙂

The text message is proof, you're doing well right now.

Thank you!

You are in the observation process he's checking you out making sure you don't have any annoying habits or red flags. It will take him a little while, once the observation period is over he will make his move.

Are you sure he's straight?

I'm only asking because everything you said in that date and the following message is how it went down with a gay friend of mine. Not trying to scare you but I had deja vu @ the chapstick part and the girly squeeze and the 3 kisses message. Hell, I had deja vu with the entire date.

ok, ok..I had to ask.

I'm going to go with the rest on taking the gentleman approach here.

My Aries ex did that and I was so SURE he was gay or not into me because he hadn't kissed me yet. I was panicking and when he told me later in the relationship that he thought he'd be a gentleman since I am a lady I felt so silly about my panic.

Cancers are slow to open up but because they need to know you can hang on for the roller coater ride without flying off and getting hurt. But 3 kiss emojis from a man sounds homo

Sorry but he isnt the only guy that sent me 3 kiss emojis before so I have to disagree with you on that, I think hes just excited but thank you for the advice.

Ok so I am a Gemini woman and went out on a date with a

Cancer man 2 times... We are still talking but haven't decided on the 3 rd date yet! The same as you happened to me.. The cancer man did not kiss me at all on the first or second date.. Yet after the bar closed we stayed

Talking until 4 am outside the parking lot! We have amazing conversations and we are constantly texting each other... I believe cancers are just slow to open up and they are more sensitive to emotions and such. They tend to be special.

From my experience they are shy and respectful. If you want that kiss you will have to make that move. Remember they are feelers and observe EVERYTHING! Tread lightly tho. My cancer ex was always thinking so he would never make the move unless he is confident in the moment.

If a guy tries to kiss me on the first date I will block them from everything & NEVER give them the time of day again.

Maybe he's hoping you're not a slut
