I've seen a few in my real life. My Cancer cousin and her Libra husband have been married for nearly 35 years. A male Libra friend is married to a beautiful Cancer lady, and they have a 2-year-old Sagittarius boy. Victoria secret model Candice Swanepoel (sp?) has been with her Cancer beau since her teens (although I don't know her personally, just thought I'd chuck this one in as well, heh).

I suppose it can work, if you really want to. I don't put much stock on astrological compatibilities. Astrology may or may not help, but if two people believe they are compatible, astrologically or not, and are willing and able to make it work, they will. I don't think my cousin and her husband, and my friends, are into astrology. So whatever problems they had during the courtship phase and throughout their marriage, they resolved them as any couple would.

Yes ti and tiny.....sole and genuine married over 15 years now to tiny for a while too idk how long. It can work and my ex unfortunately was my best and worst rel due to abuse but i love libras just have understand eachother. Any sign can work in my opinion its all about our ego and self growth. Cancer need learn to understand libras ways and vice versa both have strong relationship long term to me. Had my ex not been abusive we still b together 7 years..we were together for 4 until I finally left them.

I don't believe in this pairing.
( male libra- female cancer. female libra - cancer male )
the gender is not important.
cancer and libra together is hell on earth.
the chances of success is very small..
My libra female friend is fwb with a cancer male and he's becoming so clingy with her, I think he's beginning to really like her. But she JUST wants to be fwb. He's like really trying to get to know her and she doesn't understand why lol... how can someone be so into someone who isn't into them back..

They are so drawn to me and we both stick around because of my moon, but I eventually get tired of the disappearing so when they come back i'm like oh yeah forgot about you sorry I don't trust you. This Guy a Cancer with Gem moon and Scorp Venus has been trying to date me. He is really sweet, but I don't think I am ready to date. He knows that though but he still talks about sweeping me off my feet.

This pairing reminds me of taurus and Leo. Sexual attraction and mystery is there, but when that fades, there's not much else these two have in common to last long term.
Yep, cancer and libra = 2 different creatures

Yeah they have too many differences that overpower this relationship. Like for example, this cancer male is sooo into my libra friend, but she only sees him as a friend, this pairing isn't balanced.
This just came to me

Hmmmm I don't know how this would work...it's supposed to be disastrous, no?

I'm a Cancer sun, Scorpio moon, and a Capricorn + Scorpio dominant. Venus in Gemini and Mars in Aries. However I have always found that I get along great with Libra men as friends, some of my closest guy friends have been Leebs. And we could always balance each other out by bringing the emotional (from my side) and practical elements to the table of any situation. However, it's always been platonic, like one of my Libra guy best friends used to tell me in college "when you don't come over, I feel like my day is incomplete." And this was purely platonic (cause I used to go over classes and discuss the day over tea/coffee.) He's now happily married to a Pisces girl (and they are great!)

I get along with my Dad, a Leeb, and I suspect he's air dominant because everything in life must be thought out rationally with little emotion involved with him.

However, when it comes to dating, I don't know. All the Lib men I have been out with are super nice but I tend to dominate them in conversation. Like I like talking about a range of things, and when asking their opinion, they will just agree with mine, or I found they didn't have opinions on many issues (politics, human rights, social justice, gender issues.) A lot of them said "I would rather just hear it from you," which I understood they were trying to compliment me but at the same time I was like WHY DON'T YOU HAVE AN OPINION!

This never seemed to happen with my Libra friends who are guys- maybe the ones I dated, should have checked their placements. Hehe.

My longest relationship (5.5 years) was with a Cancerian. That relationship began with her chasing me for months & me playing hard to get because even though I liked the attention, I was very indecisive about wanting to start a relationship because of a couple factors (age difference, my outlook in life at that moment, my lack of maturity at the time).

She was very clingy, overtly emotional, & very jealous about my female friends and in a sense, it kind of rubbed off on me until I realized that it didn't feel natural to me to be clingy (I wanted to balance my time and didn't want to be with her for the majority of my day), I became somewhat emotionally detached, and the jealousy part was something felt shouldn't have been there since I figured that if she wasn't happy then she's more than welcome to leave because I'm not about wasting anyone's time (then again, I realized I was almost unconsciously making her unhappy because I was not satisfied). Over time, I felt like I was always having to get her out of emotional ruts and in a sense, I felt like I was absorbing her negative energy and it was affecting me. I started to grow bored because of my need to be adventurous (I like trying/doing new things, she was very picky & adamant about things she's never done/tried/experienced) and everything became very routine. Our life goals weren't being met because of a bad combination of my complacency with being satisfied at the time & her self-depreciation that kept her from doing what she wanted to do. There was a lot of baggage to begin with, I felt like she thrived on discord and that's something I always avoided. It got to the point where the harmony broke and everything became confrontational and we both agreed that we shouldn't be together. She did want to get back with me after we broke up but I respectfully declined, as I felt there was no benefit to trying to fix something that wouldn't be better than it was to begin with.

We became cordial after we broke up and I hold no ill feelings toward her to this day. In the long run, it helped us both develop as better people whenever we talk about our relationship, we tend to laugh at how silly we both were at the time and it's always a very apologetic conversation. I'm happy she's happy and I believe she's happy that I'm happy with the person I became (we broke up 7 years ago and a lot has changed).

P.S. One of my best friends is a Cancerian (Cancer Sun/Gemini Moon) and we get along great, despite our different personalities. Nearly all of my exes have been water signs.

My Libra and I are evenly matched and we just 'get' each other naturally. I have a hold on him that he doesn't understand and that no one else has been able to achieve with him. So despite the hot & cold and immaturity he showed in the beginning, once he realized that everything he wanted to have he could have it with me but he was going to have to be all in because I wasn't going to settle for half assness like he was able to do and get away with other women.

Once he stepped up everything has been great and we're getting married in a few months, 2 yrs from when we met.

Cancers really seem to like it when the person they like doesn't want them as much. Idk. Something about that unreciprocated love thing speaks to them. It's weird. The crappier they get treated the harder they fall.
