I read somewhere that Cancer guys are supposed to be jealous and clingy... but I was out with my boy last night and some guy tried to hit on me and he did like nothing. What's up with that? I asked him later and he was like "I'm the total opposite of jealous... who'd want a jealous boyfriend anyway?"
Why would you want him to be jealous? You WOULD'T WANT A JEALOUS man trust me! Too possessive and he is a boyfriend, not your husband a HUGE difference.
Mmmm... it's not about a guy hitting on you. In fact, that might make a man (Cancer or not) proud to be with you, proud that others find you attractive. Well, if he's secure enough in himself and in you, that is. The insecure ones are the ones who fly into jealous rages because some guy dared look at or flirt with his woman!
What it IS about... apparently, you handled it very well. You either did not take the bait and pretty much ignored Mr. Flirty, which made your guy not only proud but reassured... OR even if you DID flirt back a little, it was harmless and not over the top, and didn't make your Cancer think you were disrespecting HIM.
Personally, I go with the former rather than the latter - generally speaking, if you flirted back, a Cancer guy would get a bit bent out of shape!
😛
NOW.. if you shamelessly flirted insanely with this guy right in front of your man, not caring how disrespectful or hurtful it might be... and he didn't seem bothered by it... that's a whole 'nother thread, girlfriend LOL
this could be some maturity of his behalf so be thankful. maybe he realizes that u are an attractive woman, and when u go out to bars or the like, ur probably gonna be hit on. maybe he's realized that he can trust u and believes that u will stand up for urself against the unwanted attention. i prefer my man to only watch from a distance and step in if necessary (i.e. the guy became pushy and forceful with his advances). i was with a cap guy that was like this. don't get me wrong, he had his jealous streak and would watch very intently, but would keep it under control and leave me be. he knew i was a strong woman and could take care of myself/be trusted.
