Are cancer men fem?

Are Cancer Men Feminine or Feminine Traits Common?

Cancer men are often sensitive and nurturing, traits sometimes associated with femininity. However, they are also traditionally masculine and protective. These qualities reflect emotional depth rather than gender stereotypes, making them complex individuals who can display both masculine and feminine traits depending on the situation.

I was told by a cancer man that I made him feel like an object? What man says something like that? I am still chuckling. I wanna say something smart back but I just cant even come up with anything

Well that's all it is. A big misunderstanding. I did end it in January but he still texts me sometimes. He's a player. And I'm to old for games.

Sounds like he feels like he was being used. I'm not really surprised he felt like that. Some Libra women are strange in relationships when it comes to the others' feelings. Not saying that YOU are per se, but maybe how you came across made him feel that way. You know Cancers, all emotional. You know Libras, all airy and "IDGAF." Great combo for misunderstandings.

The thing is I really tried to show my feelings... I dont talk about them I show em through affection and doing things for a person that I like and care about.. I felt like he was taking advantage of me so I backed off.. it was weird and i'm feeling a little bitter about it now. I can't believe he'd feel like that.. I feel like he plays the victim and that was just his way of getting out of being to blame for some shit that people were talking.. Tried to put it on me like I was the bad guy.

Meh. My Cancer brother is a cross between a bitch and a passive-aggressive douche, whiny and high-strung, and will NEVER take the blame for ANYTHING. (He actually looks an awful lot like me, a "pretty boy" lol) So yeah, I guess he would seem kinda girly and emotional, but leaning more towards the "bitch" end of the spectrum. He's always been more attracted to the real ball-buster type women.. real hardcore tough ones that will push him around (and cheat on him repeatedly) so he can keep playing the victim, THAT'S what trips his trigger and sends him over the moon. He's been with a VERY nice Gemini woman for several years.. she's head over heels for him and treats him like a King.. but she's not a bitchy hottie like the rest, so he certainly doesn't love/treat her like he should. :/

I'm learning that men like bitchy women... I wonder why that is

Read: Why Men Love Bitches by Sherry Argov.

Keep in mind, "bitch" is tongue-in-cheek and she's not actually telling you to act like those stupid cunts we all know that chew good men up and spit them out before running off with the next. It's just how to keep yourself from being the (Doormat type) "Too Nice Girl"... Also, some of the "Bitch's Way" she touts miiiiight be just a bit extreme for most of us.. a little too hardcore.. but read it and see if you can't maybe fall somewhere between the nice girl doormat and the total bitch...

Good book, good book.

Cancer is a feminine sign...but can be helpful as a man when you are trying to get a good sense of your lady. I started really being influenced by a bff I had who was an Aries and started being really out right about the truth and no don't hold back, and not too many can handle it. Librans are most always intellectually capable of talking and reasoning with truth, no matter how bold.

It's odd to feel compelled to want to care and nurture to such a great degree, because there are so many out there that don't appreciate it or give a shit either way. When it is needed though, that fem touch and intuition goes a long way.

Now after a month he's been texting me again trying to get in contact i wasnt responding.. he said he was at my house and i fell for that shit.. I texted him back and we got to talking but i still was careful. Friday night he called me and talked for an hour about all kinds of shit.. From how it was messed up I could just not speak to him anymore and i'm treating him like hes nothing to how i should just move from where am i regardless of my situation with my childs father.. telling me about his father telling me that he liked me because we just chilled and could have intellectual conversations and what not.. Telling me that he didnt drive 2 hours to my state to see his fam he was coming to see me which i believe because he stays at my house.. hed tell me he was coming to see his fam but hed be w me the whole time... he was saying he wants to hold me and to let him know when i'm off on the weekend so he can come and he is staying at my house ... then the next day nothing! haha I'm trying to decide if drunken words are sober thoughts and he just feels weird and went into his shell now or what.. Any input?

I dated one, and the joke amongst his friends was that everyone knew he was actually gay & was just waiting for him to come out, but believe me .... That boy LOVED women. Many if his mannerisms were, however, very fem.

Good news:

He really really likes you. Probably has it in the back of his mind that he wants you as part as his "Happily ever after". Don't know why he didn't come threw the next day, but if your question is how serious is this guy? I would say he is pretty serious.

Bad News:

He is no good. He will waste your time and take you for granted.

he did write to me that he just really hoped things could work one day..

Arrogant guys want women who are straight up, so they don't get blindsided by an emotional whirlwind of passive-aggressiveness. Easier to deal with a problem when you put it right out there.

Humble guys will get along with nice girls better because humble guys are sensitive enough to notice when their S/O is starting to get upset. However, sometimes they'll fall for a bitch if they aren't confident enough to take the lead with a nice girl, for any number of reasons.
