He's shown to me that he likes me, i've also shown him that i like him, but now it's like we're both waiting to see who's going to talk first or who's going to say what? How sure does he have to be before he can actually come forward ?
Why Cancer waits for you to come forward first?

Simply put...We hate rejection and we will do ANYTHING to avoid it which is why we have problems with other signs who aren't aggressive in love. He's going to have to be pretty sure, but why don't YOU step up to the plate and save yourself a long wait because it might take a while if he isn't sure!

I'm a Leo!
I've made it very clear, maybe not with words, but the way i act around him, the little emails i've sent him, i'v made clear that i do like him but he just can't seem to do the next step. Now I AM almost afraid to be rejected! I'm tired of waiting!

And that's it...if there is ANY word to describe us, it is subtle.
Cafrella...You are a LEO...girl you better let out that might roar and claim that man! I know several Leo women and when they want something, they go for it! DON'T be subtle too...be bold, be loud, be dramatic. From what you have written, I would be willing to bet you won't get rejected. TELL HIM YOU WANT HIM in a way that leave NO room for doubt. If you do, and he does reject you...you can come to ATL and kick my ass...well not too much because I am preggo! GOOD LUCK!
Sorry to tell you this OneFineAquarius...or happy, whichever you really want. He still wants you. No doubt about it. WHY...I'll tell you.
1. He keeps looking at you...if he was truly over you, he would have been alot less attentive almost to the point of ignoring you.
2. You talking about the Gemini guy made him jealous, but also more apprehensive about approaching you because we aren't real good at "fighting" for the people we love. If he thinks you have another, he might SUBTLY say little things, but he won't beat his chest and grunt..."You my woman...I kick any man ass who take you from me." Not our style .
3. Him saying he wants a girlfriend was a HUGE hint...I mean HUUUUUGGGGEEE! That is SO something I might do.
LOL, OFA...you are REALLY making me look deep within myself and realize how confusing I can be to other people. BUT if you keep the subtlety factor in mind and pick up on the signs (not to mention we wear our emotions on our sleeves) then you should be okay.
SORRY we are so confusing LOL

It's simple- ask him out for coffee.. and go from there. Making the first move isn't a bad thing.... the worst he can say is, "no," and the sooner you know he's not interested- the soon you can move on to someone better.
Why? He's just a person like you and probably just a scared.

I can make a half-step but you have 2 seconds to finish the step before i turn away, keep your eyes open at all times.
I have to admit he's a little strange though, sometimes i dont know if he's in one of those moods, or if I've done something that bothered him or hurt his feelings... some days he's soooo friendly and then wham... he's so distant and if i try to ask what's wrong... "oh nothings wrong, I don't know what you're talkimg about" is he just MOODY or how do i know if I;m not the one who actually did something wrong?

You should be able to know. If he likes you and you're talking about another guy, he's not gonna be chatty. Oh, and leave us alone when we'e dark, come back later and it should be ok.
Cowboy UP, Cafrella. Seize THE FREAKIN Day!! Every minute you waste wondering what "could be"... could've been spent drinking coffee and playing footsies! I mean, maybe the time to ask, wouldn't be when he's being moody- but if he's being friend.. lay it ON him!
Sometimes i think he plays games... he can be very NICE friendly with people that he hates... it scares me! So i figure if he's mad at me i probably wont know?
"He works where i work, one day he wore jeans and i emailed him that i thought he looked really sexy in jeans so then he'd wear jeans A LOT more often... then i mentioned in an email that i thought he looked really hot all dressed in black so then he'd wear alot of black... then one day he wore BLACK JEANS but i didnt say anything... so he never NEVER wore them again... I guess he did that for me?
Ok cafrella, what would like one of us to tell you? If you think the chemistry between the two of you is relationship worthy (or even just "date" worthy) -- then psycho analyzing what he wears to work isn't gonna get you any closer to a date.
There's plenty of Cancer guys on this board who can tell you what they are like, but you know what this guy is like--so go with your gut... and time will tell if it's meant to be. If it's not meant to be, will it be the end of the world..? heck no.. you guys can still be friends. Meanwhile, there are plenty of crabs in the sea.
Talking about it is only worth a handful of sand.

Good advice STD and CL,BOTH on point. NUFF said. BESS ADVICE from both period. DID i jus do a fox news qoute jus now,lol.
If he hasn't asked you out yet, then there's something about you that he's reserved about. My cardinal quality really comes through when I completely like someone, but I'm quite evasive when I'm unsure of something about a person.
I dunno, if you already told him he's sexy and he hasn't done anything... I would wait... I mean is there anything preventing him from doing somehting? Do you have a casual boyfriends or somehting? We really don't like to infringe on other ppl's girlfriends.

Being called sexy wouldn't make me more forward, it's just something people say.

Cafrella...
If someone I like tells me that I look good in something, hell yeah I am going to try to wear it as much as possible LOL!
What is SO hard about just asking him out? ME
