Cancer

Making up with Cancer requires patience, delicacy, and tact. The Crab's feelings are easily bruised. Don't make light of your mistakes, and never tease them about theirs. Telling this sign that you can't live without their love will usually do the trick. If Cancer still pouts after your apology, fix a home-cooked meal and fuss over their welfare. Make more time for this lover, and listen attentively to their concerns.

Hey crudemood!

It has been a while. What you mentioned makes so much sense. Cancers are very sensitive and take things seriously even if it was just a joke. My Cancer boss got jealous when I mentioned my crush on Hugh Jackman.

lol LK, I usually get my Cancer to that point by simply confronting him with "well you do realize that you _______ (whatever he did to me in displacement of his anger/sadness/moodiness). What would you do if someone did that to you?" and give him a little time to think about it... and he comes around to apologizing and making good.

Yeah I've been there and done that too. And that was most likely triggered by the sag (my Dad and older brother & sister are Sags). My Hun is usually very open to discussing differences in opinion as long as everything is respectful and not too confrontational. We have agreed to disagree more times than we have succeeded in changing the others opinions, but whatever works! What I'm having to deal with is him presenting something then running away because he's scared he's going to get an answer he doesnt want, so I have to wait until he's brave before he'll listen to my reply.
