To all the Cancers out there

So I hate being negative bout things but this has been really buggin me... I got a cancer mum, cancer grandma, and three cancer friends. I love these people a lot but often enough they make my scorpio anger go up ( which translates as they hurt my feelings, I can't tell them 'cause I don't wanna hurt them and which will eventually leave me frustrated and maybe cause an outburst on my side at one point - god I hate it but I am aware of this fault). To put it short I noticed that only one of the cancer people I have in my life actually listen to what I have to say. It really bugs me because it's very obvious when they just wait for me to stop talking about something they find uninteresting. By no means I generalize the whole zodiac sign of cancer right now. What is your take on that ? I mean like I said as a scorpio I know I am sensitive little shit sometimes and get hurt but small things that I can't feel through. I just noticed that the cancers I met were very nice and emotional and easy to talk to but at one point I always saw that turning head in the middle of my phrase. Maybe I just wanna hear from some of you that you do listen even when it's not looking like it...

sorry to lol but I can see your point

It's very un-cancer-like to not be there for someone they care about at a time of need. They are supposed to have the best reputation in the zodiac for this trait. However, if the crab is already experiencing high levels of emotion, it can be difficult to take those on from others as well. This sign is very empathetic, and feels the pain of those they care for. It can be taxing. As a fellow water sign, you experience this too.

However, crabs need to be put in their place once in a while (what I call putting up the dam), otherwise their waters will flood everything. What this means is to not be afraid to tell a crab that is acting like a dick, that they are acting like a dick. You can't let it sink in that this behavior is ok, and they will test the limits of those they care for. There is no need to walk on eggshells for anyone.

Of course, you still want to approach with the best intentions, calm, and rational. If you're hostile when you approach, they will only fight back, or retreat. Either way, you won't get through.

Thank you for your insight !! I will try to be more vocal and also not too fiery 🙂

a cancer can't tolerate boring

I ain't boring ! I don't need to entertain my friends and family....what's up with that ?! They often say things that don't really interest me in a way but I still listen because it seems to matter to them.

People always think I don't pay attention and then are surprised when I can recite the entire half hour monologue they just word-vomited.

My mum is a Scorpio but I stop listening when its about the same issue or similar multiple times. I gave my advice or opinion once, twice and a third and after that I just have to change the subject because she obviously didnt listen to me the first few times.

Cancers are attentive listeners but not when you just insult their insight.

cancers can sometimes understand a Scorpio like no other. you guys have unusual reactions to things. most will see it at face value but cancers will see it in depth. you cant fool the cancer's intuition.

If this isn't you, then I would say that if a cancer reacts like this they've got heavy things on their mind.

I could be wrong but this is my experience and my sister in-law's.
