I found out through a mutual friend the Cancer ive been blabbing on about got laid off from his electrical Union job last Thursday 😢 Should I be concerned he is going to officially fall off the deep end? I feel awful! He is a Cap moon and I bet with everything going on, he is not doing well. He is union so you dont get "fired" but you can sit on the book waiting for a job for awhile.

I wanted to text him, but I'm still blocked. Poor crab 😢

Yea,don't say anything to him about it because HE didn't tell you, you heard through the grape vine...

If he's in a union, he'll get something sooner than later....

Hopefully he's not drowning in his emotions.. Pray for him

I feel like he really does have the worst luck. He crashed his dads car at Whole Foods by my house the day before we got in the argument (that's why he should be driving his own...but anyways). Like he is VERY woe is me, but damn dude has been getting his butt handed to him. I legit feel awful. I bet his pride is so hurt.

Relax! You didn't know. It's not like you knew the troubles he was facing with work and then you went to pile your own issues with him on top of that.

I still find him annoying for blocking you. That's a really childish way of handling conflict! I don't care what sign you are. I sometimes wonder how these childish men deal with work conflicts. Do they give their bosses silent treatment?

Anyway, I think you should reach out but if he acts like a pouty bitch, then let him wallow in his pillow because there's no excuse to mistreat others especially when they are reaching out to you with empathy.

Don't feel bad, you didn't cause these problems in his life. You see now though why he's been a moody though. That's not to defend his actions and I don't agree with the fact that he blocked you because that's childish. Cancer men need to feel secure in themselves and those around them though. Right now he questioning his value pretty hard.

Since you're blocked there's not much you can do. DeeLovesRed is correct, let him tell you about his situation. Nothing worse than knowing that people are talking about his issues behind his back. He's probably going to sulk for a bit though, so let him come to you.

If he is as emotionally responsible in his work as he is when dating, I´d say no wonder he got fired. He needs to learn something in life. It amazes me though that you keep up this "pity party" for him just to make excuses to contact him...

But then again I did the same in my mid twenties..

But then again I was also super surprised by that..

Youre probably right.

Why didn't he tell you he got fired? Seems like something you would share with a significant other

He hasnt spoken to me in two weeks. I'm assuming he has cut me out completely.

Ok, so why bother then? He obviously doesn't care for you to know this information. Life is short. I'd rather waste it with people that care about me and make me feel good

I guess i'm having a hard time balancing my emotions. I miss him. He was very sweet. Im starting to question if i was too hard on him and demanding, and pushed him away. Then on the other hand Im telling myself "Forget that, hes a grown ass man. You asked that he get his life in order".... I should probably have a better grasp on how im feeling. But, I dont.

True. I guess if he wanted my empathy right now, I wouldnt still be blocked. I do feel for him. I still think hes childish.... but i do feel for him.

you can feel for him from a distance - he may reach out to you - but if not, just move on after you have said your prayers ...
