I don't know if its a Cancer trait but when I like/love someone I become insanely jealous!!! They say the most jealous sign is Scorpio and Taurus. I DON'T have any Scorpio or Taurus in my chart.

When I see the guy I like communicating with another female I become paranoid and insecure.

I also imagine things in my head. That my partner could find someone better than me and leave me ?

So am I the only Cancer like this? Jealousy is not a big trait in us.

I forgot to add that I'm very anti social and just because I'm like this I don't want my partner to have a thousand friends. Yeah, i'm pretty needy and possessive

Yeah, my lovely cancer sister is an envious and jealous person.

I think the thing with us crabs is not how possessive and clingy we are.. Its our choice of partners. We tend to "love" people that are one foot out the door. And that brings out the POSSESSIVE, CLINGY part of us. BUT I find when I feel emotionally secure.. the jealousy and clingyness stops to happen. I don't feel clingy anymore because Im not settling for any bullshit anymore. But when I was settling than Yes, I was jealous. But every time was with reason. Im quickly learning that its better to be alone than with people who arn't really right for you... I used to be all about the toxic relationships. Nah son. I want balance. I want togetherness, but also independence with my partner. Ill stay single till then.

I'm not really the jealous type. I attribute it more to my gem moon for being that way. So long as my needs are met, sharing my partner's love and attention is a non-issue. Even when I do get jealous, it comes off more cute and innocent, rather than possessive and raged.

For once I would LOVE someone to be jealous over me and show they care. anyways you're a crab, cancer, sensitive and nurturing so this feeling of jealousy is very normal.

What's your moon and Venus? That may play a part as well.

Okay so this is going to sound a bit weird.

I'm definitely not insecure & envy is something that rarely takes over me.

However i did notice that with my last crush (it takes alot for me to find one ?), if he wasn't replying fast enough, I'd make jokes about him talking to his "wife" to see how he'd react and see if I had something to be afraid of ?. I would just get paranoid because I'm not the type of girl that likes to be talked to while they talk to other women.

Just because it makes me feel like they don't take me seriously. So if I find out that they are, I definitely end up leaving.

And another thing is that if I get jealous (which is rarely since I'm actually quite confident) , I tend to not show my jealousy & eventually I end up thinking that it's his life and I can't control it. So I either leave or stay.... Then I just forget about the whole situation.

This is nice to an extent.

If they get crazy & start restricting you that shit aint cute.

But I guess Taurus like that shit, because my friend is a Tarus & she is the happiest person when her partner gets jealous ?

Sometimes she even makes him jealous on purpose (which I find ridiculous)

I agree with the above statement. When we find someone who will give us what we give then we back away from being clingy. Just like our partners we need to know we are appreciated and valued.
