Hi TaurusGoddess, I can't help you. But, I wanted to say that my best friend was born on April 25th and she's an awesome human being. Maybe there's just something about that day, eh?

I don't know how I screwed up. He was soooo excited to get together. I'm confused. Here is a letter I emailed him. But I won't call him. I've done my part.
letter:

I didn't hear from you yesterday, so I'll assume that your either upset about something or someone/thing else came up. If it's the 2nd, well I can live with that. But I thought maybe it was the last time we talked. You asked if I was mad. I have to admit lots of people absolutely hate my phone mannerisms. I am short on the phone - I am more in-person kinda person. I've always been that way, and trust that people know me well enough to not take that personal.
Anyways, I'd hate to lose something good because of a misunderstanding, so I'll let you think about that. You hardly know me but sparks are also a rare thing. We're both a rare catch and I'll miss you if I don't talk to you again.

This is after his dissappearing act, when we had for sure plans. Haven't seen him since sunday. 😭

Thats not wholely true. The whole family can be included in our affections.
I do only care about people who are very close to me though. Usually if I really care about a friend they never seem to care about me as mcuh so whats the point. If I love someone though then one day they may be my family in some way so they get treated as good as family.

For those who don't know Q very well....There is a 95% chance that he was joking. He has a bit of a weird sense of humor so don't take offense to that.

BUT I will say that I am selfish as in I may do something for a random human being for no reason because it makes ME feel good as well as improves my karma, so in essence I'm doing it for myself. I also am of the belief that humans are inherently selfish...Some people more so than others...I don't know many people who do things that aren't directly or indirectly related to their happiness.

Dang TaurusGoddess you haven't talked to him since Thursday! Wow...maybe he is a jerk!

He just called. Said he's sick & has been sleeping. Am I just an insecure paranoid freak or is he inconsiderate for not keeping in touch? Damn, I can be a drama queen. That can't be a taurus thing? Anyways, thank you guys soooooooooo much. We'll see how the weekend goes. HAPPY CANADA DAY!!!

I think every Cancer man has their standards that they live by, and they don't change them. But for most, as long as you don't cheat, any minor mishap can be settled by a move from you, in other words, they don't like confrontations, so if you come forward (and you'll have to), be nice, and everything will be as it was before, not that anything changes, just that the silence was broken.

Cancers love their family, themselves, sex, party and money. In that order. Worth every wee bit of effort they are.

Ladydane you are right on most of what you say. Unless you are married to them it is dificult to cut across the barricade they surround themselves with.

This goes for us females, too! Do you ladies agree?

You have enough info i hope on what a cancer can or can't be.Definitely thereis soemthign strogn between the two of you. Whether, how and when the two of you will cometogether will depend on the circimstances that each one of you is in...circumstances which are neither cancer nor taurus specific. Yeah one's responses to those circumstances could differ. But then this is what accoutns for differences between any two individuals. The reason why we constantly tryign to find ways and means which can best put together all the aspects of our life and hearts desire together and create a wholesoem picture.

Best of luck to you Dear.

Thanks for the sum up looneybird, the info was all good, & you're right when it comes down to who we are and everything besides being cancer or taurus. The guy is a sweetheart and strong all at once, but he does go from hot to luke warm to cool to hot since I've met him, and it is confusing.

I guess trust is something that grows and I believe that it is something we all want to see if we're serious. Maybe he's just making sure I'm going to be there.

"Cheating, lying, deceiving is a WHOLE other ball game. Forget it - I write the person completely off, hurt, and eventually emotionally detach myself, and move on."

As a double cancer i would beg to differ on this. I will take such an offender to task. But writting anybody off for ever. No way ...Noway...every human being is capapble of changing for good. By writing anyone off..it jsut shows that you dont believe that peopel can rise and turn into a new leaf. That si pretty pessimitic i would say.

Yes, that line kinda makes me nervous. I screw up lots but I'm pretty forgiving so as long as I'm trying I don't feel like a hyprocrite. Now, if this guy won't be forgiving I'd be kinda like "Wow, you'll never be happy. People f up everyday!"

This man is driving me up the wall already. My blood pressure is even high now! (or at least I feel like it is!) He is like inlove an then dissappears with no calls for days. Then sweeps in, and we go see fireworks for long weekend, bottle of wine all romantic & then he doesn't call me for next day plans until 2 hours later which was too late. I don't get this guy. I'm a taurus & this inconsistancy makes me feel like I'm being played or having a heartattack or break. Is this a cancer thing or who the hell acts like this?!!!!

About Cancerians I don't know much about lady but in this kid of situations, have patience and do not expect immediate success in your love relationship. Work step by step.

That which is to endure must be developed gradually and with great care. Reminding you an old saying; "By wanting too much too quickly you may end up with nothing".

This cancer man of yours might need some "discipline and manners" not "hating"..!! Argue and fight/criticising wont solve your problem, let me give a small advice if I may? try to be a "hunter" not to "be hunted" in your relationship, Pure motives alone do not bring success in your life or your love project; "skill" is also necessary. The hunter who searches for game in deserted areas might wait forever without firing a single shot.

As far as I know its not the Cancer men or any signs men or women? be patience and try to learn skills that match your personality and class?. And sure?. Everything goes accordingly.

The only cancer men I knew was parallax (RIP) and this unfortunate old enemy/buddy of mine Cancerbuddy "soon to be (RIP) too?!"

Cancerbuddy, I HATE people. and I LOVE people. Each to him/herself. Some people actually are EXTREMELY emotional, and when you are, well, passion really is that high. Right now, I "almost" HATE that cancer sweetheart-turned huge asshole.
