How do I get a cancer guy to answer my emails? So rude, makes me kinda angry.

Now this guy is useless when it comes to communication. He's admitted it himself and his best mates have said to too. In his facebook wall with his best friend, there are five messages to his one!

Why is he so useless? If he liked me would he be more responsive?

The other week I joked and put at the end of an email:

?Anyway, I would say let me know when you've booked (your flights), but you probably won't, so I won't bother :oP
But if you did, it would be nice and a shock ;o)?

He then replied to me and our friend the next day.

I then wrote him an email back saying:

?Wow, a reply! I almost fell off my seat. Hee, hee, just kidding ;o) x?

He then emailed me back 20 mins after. Which I thought was lovely!!! There's me getting over excited about an email!!!! It's ridiculous. I mean, it's just common courtesy isn't it?

But why should I have to flirt to get a response? And risk him not replying anyway? Therefore hurting my ego?

Would like to know your thoughts.

Same problem here, lack or no communication. If there is some its on their schedule, god knows when that is detremined, the weather, the line up of the planets , lotto results go figure.. Im baffled at his beahvior and bad next to no communciation. Esp . when I cant call him beacuse he has no phone. Im at his mercy, to get a call god knows when. And i cant say its because he has no feelings for me, he just bugs ot or shuts down and shuts people out when he is overwhelmed with life, which seems to be often. Instead of coming to me for comfort, he runs far away and no communication, no explanation.Then i find if im chasing him in concern, he feels im being too possessive. So i never win. I feel your anguish..

from what you said seems like you are more worried about you than him..hence your bruised ego. you aren't getting what you want when you want it so that makes him useless..nice

I totally agree with dummylove and cheenah, these cancer men, too much confusion, mixed messages. They grind you down until you lose the will to live.
I have the patience of a saint and I'm a nice person, but boy do they wind me up. I can't play their games no more. There's only so much you can give without it coming back.

I've given up.

don't play games. if you like him, let him know. if you don't, let him go.

you want him to play your game. he doesn't want to...why?

maybe he doesn't like you?

maybe he doesn't know you like him so why should he spend his precious time responding?

if you're trying to get a Cancer guy to chase you, good luck!! we don't like the chase and we don't like to play games.
