kinda curious about my cancer male friend

I am a Taurus female.one of my best friends is a male cancer.

Nothing sexual has ever happened between us,but sometimes I wonder if underneath it all there may be some feelings between us.It may not sound like much but I'm his only close female friend .He is constantly calling me and we spend the majority of our time together one on one for hours talking.He is a pretty macho dude so I always felt like he was letting me into a special side of him since he is pretty guarded with most of our other friends.

Sometimes I have gotten a sense maybe his feelings aren't totally platonic. I know sometimes I feel like I have a little crush on him too but Ive never tried anything.He has never flirted with me though, but there were two occasions that I felt like he was trying to tell me something

1) one time I told him about this dream a friend of mine had about he and I were we were intimate. Im like "i cant believe she dreamt that, its so weird! i mean its crazy , me and you hooking up thats nutty."

to which he replied,"well its not that weird really."

but i didnt ask any follow ups to that , and he didnt say anything further .



2)last night I overheard him talking to my female friend. My female friends like ,"doesnt (my name) look great?"

and my guy friends all,"she is a beautiful girl, if i saw her walking on the street and didnt know her I'd probably holler at her".

uh what?lol


so I dont know .I mean i guess if he has never tried to come on to me maybe there isn't anything ,but I just get this feeling.Do cancers hide their feelings for people they may actually really like? Or maybe he is scared about ruining the friendship too...hmm I dont know


I'm curious to hear anyones perspective on this

I think he likes you but is afraid of rejection especially after the comment:
"i cant believe she dreamt that, its so weird! i mean its crazy , me and you hooking up thats nutty."
Cancerians don't flirt with ppl they have feelings for, they have too much respect for the ppl they like to jeopardize any prospective relationship. In fact, he's gonna be even more cautious now before he reveals his feelings for you. And there's that thing about ruining the friendship too. One cancerian guy once told me that he would never cross the line b/w friendship and beyond with me...
