About Cancer men and all these negative posts about them? There seems to be more confusion with crabs than any other zodiac sign? Could it be they don't know what they want in a relationship? They mature later than the rest? Have a big ego? Or they want to test a lot of women before committing? I'm curios

Do YOU have a specific issue to discuss about cancer?? And no it's not more than any other sign.

I beg to differ.... Just look a the the other posts. Cancer is more active and yes I have a post here on my cancer as well a little further down

they have massive options because of their charm

simple

I'm kinda awkward actually. A real repellent. Thanks for the ego boost doe.

As a repellent, so you work great for mosquitoes?

I always repel all those hyperactive hanger-on things that use you for their own survival.

How does one apply you for mosquito protection? Bonus if you work against ticks and chiggers, too.

It's not a balm. I advise the Rabbit diet of tortillas and beer.

But I don't like beer! 😢

Umm I'm confused by the replys

It's called "thread jacking".

Back to the topic though. Cancer is a very emotional, very feminine sign, so how can anyone not expect those energies to manifest themselves in the males as well as the females? Social conformity is the reason why males born under this sign get a really bad rep. Males can't express emotion. Males can't express femininity. Not without harsh judgment from not only other males, but ironically females too.

That's not to say that social norms are entirely at fault. There are some bitchy crabs out there for sure! Ones that need to be told to suck it up and get the fuck off of the floor. Ones who manipulate and drain the emotions of others, giving the rest a bad name. Ones who have very weak communication skills, which is the bane of a crab's existence. It's challenging for a crab to think and act with their heads instead of their hearts, and this can be tough for people to deal with as well.

Not all crab hate is deserved, but some of it most certainly is.

I think all of the above, depending on the guy??

Communication issues, like @Crabra said. I think they all know whether or not they want a relationship... I think they take their time to figure out if you're the right one. I think a lot of the guys have indirect ways of getting what they want, and asking for what they want, letting you know they're interested, etc. And some are very direct and go after directly what they want.

I post here and ask questions because the Cancer guy I know... I have never met a guy like him in my life. His confusing behavior brought me here.

I still have questions, I just keep them to myself! lol

Speaking as a Cancer male, I have done both! Though I will admit, that it seriously takes me out of my comfort zone to approach someone directly and ask them out. I am far more comfortable and successful using charm and good demeanor to get people to approach me. All I need is for them to initiate. I will take it from there.

I also have a bad habit of letting things build up too much before I ask someone out I really like. So when I do, and I get rejected, it's like my whole world is imploding. It's a really shitty feeling, and I'd rather stay safe in my shell.

most cancer guys i know are pussywhipped doormats.

A cancer guy recently whined to me about all the times people are rude to him and I really didn't know what to say, so all I said was, "what you're telling me is that you're a doormat?" He just gave me a dirty look and then we sat quietly after that.
