i would rather a cancer forget my trespasses than forgive me for them.
that bringing up stuff from 5 years ago plus like it's a fresh wound is for the birds, man.
like they know exactly the time and date ("see, you are doing to me EXACTLY what you did to your sister at club flamingo while drinking that pineapple mojito on august 8, 2009 at 3:57am!")

how y'all hold onto stuff like that and semi-manage to lead a decent life style is beyond me.

cheating is the first and last straw! you will not even know what hit you out the front door.

i have memory like a cpu of 100000tb . its all stored in there. it makes me have a perspective about people , that even though that person is being nice now, i know what he did in the past so i know not to get disappointed with that behaviour again ,because i know how he really is inside. it makes the deleting part very easy.

Yes, exactly that with the memory!

i can imagine 😉
i am a sag with a cancer rising, so i remember how a person made me FEEL but not exactly what they've done to make me feel that way.
i don't find the details of what a person has done as important as my solar plexus wanting to turn over 10000X when the thought of a particular person comes up.

Maybe not easily...but ever. Not after a huge deceit like cheating but mostly after you didn't do something they wanted you to do. They got tired of waiting and gave up. How can you tell in a relationship do they tend to give up finally and it's over? Do they move on quickly as well.
I'm only speaking of intimate relationships where you were both in love.



Something to keep in mind: Cancers never forget, especially regarding good deeds and bad.

Depends on the transgression.
If its cheating or some other serious betrayal, it is rare, if ever, that a Cancer will forgive you.
The same thing goes if you intentionally do something to hurt them.
You'll be out of their life, forever. They may not forget, but they will compartmentalize and move on.

Lesser stuff, it depends.
If they love you and have a long history with you, they'll overlook a lot of things (they may not forget, but they aren't going to ride your butt).
The only exception is if you chronically engage in the same behavior over and over. In that case, there will come a time where they will pull away. They may stay polite, but you'll be shut out of their "inner circle". Unless you make an honest effort to change and bridge that gap, that's where you'll stay.

In the specific case you are stating, the Cancer probably got frustrated because they weren't getting reassurance you were committed to the relationship.
You'll start to know if they start becoming a little less communicative where before they were an open book (this isn't really related to any specific sign, but in general).
You'll know its over when any type of communication is more formal.
I don't know the specifics of the situation you're talking about, so that's about all I can say.

As far as moving on quickly. Hard to say.
In the case of betrayal, they'll go through the 7 stages of grief and it may take them a while to move on, but they will.
Where they will move on, and quickly, is if things have gone "cold" over a period of time.
