How do cancers act after a break up?

Umm well I was with a cancer female for almost a year Im a taurus, she broke it off just over a month or so ago out of not knowing if she really loved me, since she has never had any other relationship to compare it to (we are both 17,18)
which was out of the blue the relationship was pretty healthy apart from the fact we didn't really run our own lives any more, we were too attached and comfortable and a little bit of friction began, she had her problems I had mine such possessiveness came into play for me and sensitivity came into play with her and we weren't ourselves anymore, so fair enough.

ever since the break up she has been clingy like hell, I mean if you wanna break up fair enough but she is presistant to still remain close friends which doesn't work straight after a relationship...this has been up and down for about a month confronted her two weeks about it of were we stand, I did ask for her back but she said no, move on I just feel like we are close friends. so I took her say and started to try and move on but she became even more clingy, touching me wanting to spend time with me.
so today (two weeks later from the last talk) I confonted her since she wanted to bring me to a concert in london next week I declined and she ran me asking why etc being a patient taurus it was wearing thin about now and I know cancers hate confrontation but I said all that's on my mind and said acting like a couple is wrong etc etc, it's basically leading me on. she admitted she has feelings for me although she said a few weeks ago she just thought as me as a close friend?

she said she just doesn't want a relationship right now she wants the freedom to be young, I mentioned about moving on would be good and getting back (with no guartee) but as a possibility and she agreed. do cancer women usually return or am I just wishful thinking? we have a very close bond, she doesn't open up to others like she does me and I feel very special with her ive had a fair few relationships to understand my feelings.

I'm not saying she's a -bad- person, I don't know her, but what she is doing to you is not cool. Shes very young and inexperienced (you both are), she means what she says when she wants this to be over but is going about it in such a selfish cancery clingy way. Do both of you a favour and cease all contact for a bit.

That's my advice, take it or leave it

erm, personally for me, if I was the person breaking up, I can move on easily just like that, within like the same day even. Everyone's different though but that's just me. The person will still linger on my mind for whatever reason perhaps for a couple weeks to a couple months (in a sense, this may be considered attachment of some sort), but feelings don't remain.
If I was getting dumped or rejected of some sort, I may be a little bit more clingy and harder to let go, but I'll still move on within a week or 2. The person will just linger on my mind for longer but I never hold onto a person afterwards trying to get back with them back & forth because I feel that's just selfish.

Now, for your girl, I think she's just leading you on. Granted, it's also her first relationship so it probably seems natural for her to cling onto you because both of you shared a lot of memories together (I'm assuming). Also, I think that she is still in a possessive state of you, considering she is still trying to remain in contact with you despite the premature timing. I'm assuming she doesn't want you to let go of her, so she is still holding onto you. That's my guess. I think this can be pretty typical of some cancers who have a tendency of clinging and being possessive.
