Why are some cancer men in relationships unattached and unemotional. What does it take for you guys to open up and allow themselves to feel? How long can a man be in a relationship and be unattached and unemotional? Is there a reason behind this? Men help me out on this one. And women if you can put your input, that would be great.

Thanks in advance.

GRRRRRR. I do not understand Cancer's at all! How come you guys carry hurt for so long? You should open up and give people a chance. Man...i can't deal with that. Everybody gets hurt. Bounce back and move on.

CANCERBUDDY...do you ever forget when you're hurt? well I mean Im sure you cant forget but does it eat away at you...or are you able to push it all the way down and get through the day? Im a pisces and I definitely know what you mean, but Im the type of girl that will risk it again (for the sake of love!). lol!

thats the one quality about pisces that gets me they will look at things through rosebud colored glasses which is why they will try things again hence falling in love

I know that when I give my heart to someone I give it away. That's the problem being a Cancer. I'm very intense, but in a quiet way. It takes me a while to warm up to someone and really get comfortable around the person. If I'm in love with someone, I'd kill for that person. When I get hurt it usually takes me a while to recover, but I don't bring my baggage into another relationship. First I have to heal so that I can go into the next relationship with a stable mind and a fresh start. No rebounds for this Cancer, never worked for me. Tried it once and it was a bad experience. Can't push my hurt down, I have to let it out and talk about it. However, that's just me. I have to cleanse my soul before moving on.

I've been trying to get over a reltionship for six months now... I havn't been able to let it all go... The person was also a cancer we've tried to resolve our issues but, we both feel like we had the wrong done to us... Thing about cancer men is it seems that they can do all the hurtin they want and when you hurt them back God forbid they ever forgive you... The things I did I did out of my own hurt and I havn't been able to be with anyone else since him because I was that in love so I want our relationship back and he doesn't... For the life of me I don't even know why I even want it back...

How can you give someone trust if they've done nothing to show they can be trusted...

Two cancers are a very very bad combination...

once imprinted its so hard to forget things especially if it was an extremly emotional event. things go through my head and a memory pops up...linger to long ...then the feelings come back. i can get angry about something that happened 3 years ago..as if it just happened yesterday. scars are forever.

P.S.

Kateinkansascity and ladydane49,

You are the best examples of a great Scorpio type, loyal, intense, pationate and serious.
Your Cancers are very, very, very silly....and they are going to regret it. But it may be too late then.

So here is a virgo trying to "feel" with others and it just isn't happening. Move on people!! I don't mean to sound mean or pick a fight with anyone but can anyone here focus their life in the present/future without hanging on in the past? You would be much happier!!! *Smiles*
