In astrology, Cancer signs often enjoy physical affection like hugs and kisses, which reflect their nurturing nature. While there is no limit to affection for some signs, others like Virgo may prefer less physical touch. Personal comfort levels vary, but astrology suggests that Cancer individuals thrive on emotional closeness through physical gestures.
For me it's really about being, getting or staying in tune with someone. I really like to vibe and zone out with my lady friend. Cuddling really helps to get close without over complicating things and thecontender likes to keep things real and simple. Thecontender likes to keep things real simple.
My cancer man is not like that, I wish he was. We don't snuggle that much. Usually if we go out or something with other couples we are the only couple that aren't all over each other.
Me and the cmf don't either....I think we would more but he's heard me say a million times through out the years that I'm not an affectionate person. I'll give him a hug when he leaves but that's about it. I honestly think he wishes I was more affectionate because on a couple of occasions he's kinda thrown a fit that I didn't hug him...but then has said "oh you and your hugs...I swear" LOL silly little crab ๐
I love hugs and kisses. From family and s/o. Growing up that's what the rest of my family did. Run into a friend or family member you haven't seen in a while, you give them a hug. Now, if I'm with my s/o in public, I don't want to look like we are making out. My s/o has made the comment "I just gave you a kiss". I hate that. So what, I want another one. LOL If you are a complete stranger....you get a wave and a smile or maybe a handshake. LOL
:p
The Pisces says I cut off his air supply, I squeeze him so tight. Sometimes I can't stop touching or standing close to him and I'm constantly cuddling kids around me. Other times, I'm an ice queen and you best not get too close. All depends. No kissing in public tho... it can quickly lead to inappropriate, lusty behavior that I can't put a cap on.
So from what you're saying, it's a way of keeping the connection without overdoing it, so to speak. Nice.
Got another question for ya...what does it mean when a man calls a woman a "lady friend"? What does that "label" mean?
That's what's so interesting because you can get one from either side of the fence (and even some who straddle it). I know some girls who say that their CM are completely against PDA and are not as "cuddly" and "mushy" as the astrology textbooks would make you believe. Why don't you try initiating more affectionate moments. You can keep it subtle. Like a light touch on the cheek or a squeeze on the hand, or a peck on the lips.
@LIMM
I was gonna say the same thing! He's waiting on you, girl! You're starving that poor dude! For goodness sakes feed him! He's being that perfect gentleman that so many Cancer men are and going with YOUR flow but you best believe the moment you give him the green light he's gonna ravish you! LOL!
@Maddy
Seems like it's all good in your neighborhood my mercury ruled sistah (a Gem right?). LOL, how sweet! I would definitely need an affectionate crab like yours 'cause I'm the total opposite. They have such a knack for bringing out those latent passions and emotions - especially in us mental signs! Keep up the good work! ๐
@Wasis
Another winner! What's your sign Wasis? Lord don't tell me a Pisces? I ask because I've read a-plenty that a Pisces/Cancer combo can be the most nauseating sight to behold in public because of all the "affection". I'm not necessarily a fan of PDA but Who cares though right? If the love is there then why not express it.
See, we Virgals really do come in different flavors. Ha! Unlike you, I hate hugs and kisses (for the most part). The only person who EVER made me feel like I wanted to suck face and fondle all day long was a Cancer dude (I'll keep saying it until I die - damn dem dudes are like kryptonite!) My mom's a Scorp and growing up she was very affectionate with us (gotta love those stingettes!) but I could remember times throwing myself on the ground trying to get away from a kiss on the cheek! No, it wasn't because she was my mom - honest. ๐ It really was just because I don't care much for hugs and kisses!
Are crabs experimental in bed or just plain sex ?
:p
Hahahaha Nimbue! I loves me some Luuuuuuutha! (R.I.P.)
Ok, got it. You could touch, kiss, squeeze, hold, caress, like nobody's business.
*Sings while swings hips back and forth*
"Oh, my love
A thousand kisses from you is never too much
I just don't wanna stop
Too much, never too much, never too..."
Oh! You're a Pisces/Cancer combo...but not the annoying type. LOL, you guys can squeeze the life outta someone that's for sure. It's all genuine though, and that's what I love. I can't stand phony people who don't know how to give a real hug (you know the type - they keep their torsos like 10 inches away from yours.) As I mentioned before, I'm not into hugs much but I do prefer them over kisses and I say if you're going to do it, do it right, damnit. I'm a bit too nervous to touch kids in the street but sometimes I just can't help myself because they're just so darn adorable. Funny, I usually have the coldest/most serious expression but yet babies smile at me and grab me all of the time. ๐
@wineaux
You make me feel all warm and cozy on the inside. I now want to purchase a house with a fireplace.
Kudos to you and the crab.
lady friend is what I like to call anyone I'm seeing exclusively. It's interchangeable with sweet thang, shuga duga and scrapple dapple. Oh yeah and sugar tits but that's for when things get serious. I use those cause girlfriend sounds cheesy and borderline stank at times. I've heard of people cheating on girlfriends but scrapple dapples, shuga dugas and lady friends? NEVER!
@wineaux you always say the right things to make thecontender feel all warm inside like a toaster strudel.
@pr_princess- that's somewhat of a loaded question. It all depends on what you consider normal. Personally I like to get tied up sometimes to some people that's wild to others that's routine. You gotta tune the freaktivity to the right pitch and make magic. Honestly though most cancers I've come in contact with are down for whatever just no anal. That's exit only over here.
Too much of anything will kill you...just sayin'...
Ah it's what I remember about the Crab I liked. She loves hugs, and very tightly too!
Posted by PurrrrHissss
Hi Vixxy! ๐I love quality hugs. If you're going to do that one-armed, patting-on-the-back non-hug thing, just get the hell away from me. Squeeze me tightly with both arms, or don't touch me at all.
BUT, I don't like to be hugged constantly. I'm not on E. I don't want random people running up and hugging me all day long. Moderation is key. But if I ask you for a hug, you'd better give me a good, non-pansy one, or I'm going to be insulted.
LMFAO!!!
Awwww PH....love the new pic....you are gorgeous!!! ๐
Yeah. Mine is typical like that as well. He loves it. Not big into too much PDA but I can wear him like a robe in private.
so true. it's funny though because my cancer is a twin and his brother is the total opposite. he hates cuddling and PDA and stuff.. but my boyfriend.. ALWAYS has his arm around me or wants to hold hands, and when we're just sitting on the couch we always lay with our arms around eachother.. he's said multiple times that he just wants to squeeze me and he can't get enough of me...it's really adorable. but sometimes he hugs me SO TIGHT that i feel like he's gonna crack a rib.. lol
Hearing this from experienced people who have relationships with crabs makes me feel lonely all over again. ๐ข(
If God's will, I wish I can have a Cancer GF who will endlessly gives me cuddles and kisses with full sensuality, just enough for me to explode from overload.
I'll endlessly pray for that day to come...

This one particular Cancer I know hugged me like she's never hugged before! She squeezed me so hard it was amazing! Lovely woman!

@vv - omg on the kryptonite! absolutely 100% on the money. i am a real watery gem but have never been an affectionate person. now I can't stop myself. it makes me feel like a teenager and I love it. it's like a drug. seriously, they need to have crab-hab (crab rehab๐) for all of us that end up unsuccessfully in our relationships with CMs.
Wineaux!
Ain't that some shit? Ha!
They're dangerous! It's scary what they can do to you (the way they make you feel).
Extremely easy to fall for and extremely hard to get over! Aaarrggghhh

I thought "lady friend" was to reference some chick a guy was just passing the time with.

Yep, a Pisces. Hope that's not a bad thing.
We were more sweet than inapproriate. He always had to touch me, hold my hand, etc. But I'm naturally an affectionate person. I'm a very huggy person with friends and family.Also it could be due to the fact that I have Moon/Mars in Cancer. He has Moon in Pisces. :/

What a scwheet couple you guys sound like.
All of the Pisces folk I know are veeeery affectionate. My brother-in-law is a Pisces and he used to annoy the S&% t outta me with all of the hugs and kisses, but, I just came to accept that it's simply his nature and doesn't mean any harm by it.
It's quite endearing.

Hugging > Kissing (for me)
I don't like relatives kissing me on the cheek to greet me. That annoys me. Kissing is kind of "meh" for me. In a relationship, the other person is usually the one who wants to kiss me more. That being said, I would never be rude enough to make it obvious if I'm really not in the mood to kiss. I'll kiss just as passionately and make them happy. But I'd much rather hug them. ๐
Hiiiiiissssssyyy...ahahaha!!! I swear I love your humor!
LOL @ "just get the hell away from me". I can't stand those "fake hugs" either...uuuggghhh.
And you and I are >here< as I much prefer to hug if not in the mood to kiss.
With family, I just blow past them (at functions) or do the air kiss. LOL. I always get kissed on the cheek but never actually put my lips on theirs in return. I go in as If I'm about to, and them pull back right after they've kissed mine and just before I'm about to kiss theirs. They can't tell the difference. It's something I've perfected. ๐

Just enough to make the shoulderblades pop or receive a sigh/meep.๐
LOL, I've been hugged quite tightly in my time. Almost like they were going in with the intent to crack a rib.

From all that you've shared of him here, I don't doubt he's the typical lovey-dovey type. I didn't think the younger ones would be as affectionate but I find them sometimes to be even moreso than the older ones.

LOL Vixx! Not yet, but I probably would. I just can't do it. I get a feeling of suffocation.
My hubby and I hardly "snuggle" outside of sleeping. I'd rather him smack me on my ass as I walk by than give me a bunch of long ass hugs LOL!!! Just thinking about it makes me want to scream, "UGH!!! Get OFF me!!!" LOL!
Kisses I can do without a lot of too. I'd rather talk than hug/ kiss all day.
I guess I'm too much of a busy body to be in one place long enough for a day full of hugs/ kisses. LOL!

Yes, "lady friend" is exactly the term my old FWB used to call his... FWB's.
I love affectionate displays, touching, etc, from a girl that I'm in a relationship with. There's no such thing as "too much" in those cases (though I'm the one who usually reciprocates rather than showering it on them first).
In every other case, lol no. Family, friends, acquaintances, I'm not that physically affectionate or touchy at all and would rather prefer them not to be on me =/

Now that's what I'm saying Ninjamu. I think contender is using it in a more positive and respectful way to reference his woman, but, all of the men that I've heard use it were older gentlemen who had no intentions of settling down but just wanted to have fun (you know, the player type) and had more than one "lady friend".
Iono but if a guy and I were serious I would not take kindly to being called a "lady friend". It's not exactly the same as being called a girlfriend (in my opinion) but maybe some use the terms interchangeably. There's just something a bit impersonal about it. Yea, like an FWB.

So I see you've got a little thing you do too. Brilliant!
I can't stand it when family members kiss eachother on the mouth. YUCK! That always creeps me out.
As a side note, we need to pick another show to discuss. Sept will be here in nearly two or so weeks and the tv schedule will be back in full swing. I'll leave it up to you this time.
Posted by PurrrrHissss
Vixxxy, yes! Which shows are you into? I'm flexible. ๐
Well we both like Harry's Law but don't we need something a little more scandalous? LOL.
Hmmm...let's see here now...uhm...hmmm....well....aaahhh....err...sooooo...I got nothing, Hiss. ๐
I mean, we don't wanna do the CA again do we? Do we wanna do an entertainment show this time around like X-Factor or The Voice? (Oh God please don't make me watch AI!)
Oh wait, the CA doesn't come back until like March so scratch that.
We need something even more gritty this time. I'm talk'n sex, lies and murder!!!
But then again, my tummy would never be able to handle that ^^^
Maybe a cooking show? You like Ramsay? Kitchen Nightmares?
Oh I don't know. Help me out here, girl!
Posted by caesarkreshen
Yea... I only like hugs and kisses sometimes. People who think they can do those things to make up for something uhwrong. Im the master of putting my head down or pushing someone away w my forehead. Its like no u don't get a kiss cuz u were misbehaving. Get back in ur cage! :o
Tee hee hee...you bad. I can be that way too sometimes. If my mom offends me and then tries to kiss and make-up, I will push her away. She usually feels really bad but I don't like for people to try and be affectionate with me after they've deliberately pissed me off. LOL.
@Vixxx
He's a Leo sun, Virgo moon, Leo Venus.
His asc, I just learned, was a Virgo when I checked then a Leo when HE checked :/
Working out the kinks on that one LOL!
I will say that at rare times, he wants to snuggle outside of bed, BUT it's ALWAYS when I'm busy. He ALWAYS bothers me i.e. wants attention/ affection while I'm on the phone, studying, cooking, cleaning or something of that nature. Like last night he tried to bug me while I was eating! Get the FUCK away from me while I'm eating! LOL! I literally hissed at him and tried to bite him LOL! He tried that "boo-hoo woe is me/ I just want attention" shit and got snapped at. I'm eating...EATING! Leave me alone before I throw a fork at you LOL!
I just went out of town for two weeks and got back a couple of days ago, yesterday was the first day we could spend together (with my cancer). We laid down in my bed (cuddling) and we both snoozed for about a half hour, then apparently he woke up and just laid there for about 3 hours while I slept. He told me he was happy just being able to hold me again ๐
Yes, our first "dates" back when we were "friends" were comprised of 12 hour + plus cuddling sessions...
I could hug him for an eternity and apparently he feels the same. It's nice.

Ok, deal. ๐
Hell's Kitchen is on now. Every Monday, Fox 5, 8pm. I haven't really been following 'cause I'm not impressed with the cast, and the season will be over shortly as they are down to about 6 chefs or so.
The new season of Kitchen Nightmares will premiere on Fri, Sept 23, 8pm. I'm so there! Love that show! This man is a culinary genious (big ups to that Virgo moon of his ๐). I just can't get enough of how he takes those arrogant, clueless "restaurateurs" to task...get 'em Ramsay!
We'll revisit come Septiembre? If you have something in the interim, let a sistuh know.

If you want sex, lies, and murder, we can just watch 20/20 or Dateline, lol.

Ya know, now that I think about it, Cancers could probably capitalize on this hugging shit since they do it so well. LOL.
Like set up a "hug" booth and charge those in need (so many folks nowadays just need a damn hug).
Pricing can go according to how long and how tight. (i.e. "2 Minute Tight Squeeze - $ 5 or the Bear Hug - $ 10)LMAO!

Oh, ok. Sounds like a really great channel. I know I would love it. I was talking to my sister today about changing my cable package.
As for BW's, yes it's a reality show and effing hilarious...and a bit sad. It was created and produced by Shaunie O'neal - ex-wife of Shaquille O'neal. H.A.M. I tell ya, H.A.M.!

I've read and heard this sooooo many times.
Is it true?
That there's no such thing as too many hugs or kissesโ
Parents, boyfriends/girlfriends etc., of crabs - they've all said it. That they can hug and kiss you guys all day long if they wanted and you never tire of it.
I think I even saw it with mine own two eyes - Crab dude cuddled with his girl literally all day at a wedding rehearsal. He hugged, he kissed, he caressed - wash, rinse, repeat!
That's so foreign to a Virgo like myself who can barely stand to shake a hand. ๐
Awww...I love that you guys are like this. Tell me more!
