I am an Aqua woman that really likes a Cancer boy, and I am struggling with it right now. He is pretty adorable, and I have more hope than faith at this point that we even have a chance. Not sure... think I've blown it already, but it is pretty early in the process yet.
I think the Aqua female needs to set aside expectations and even some of her own intuitive or gut feelings about what is happening. I am finding that when it comes to connecting to a crab's heart, the aqua girl pretty much has to let go of any expectation of control or demands. The trick is to think about how 'normal' our aquarian eccentricities feel for us, are likely quite foreign, intriguing, and also strange and confusing for the crab. For me right now, I am asking myself how much can I afford/do I want to tone my uniqueness down for him without losing myself in him nor my self-respect. That is a very fine line. Asking an Aquarian to act traditionally or 'normal' is like poking a wild and caged animal.
But I have a cancerian BF of 25 years who is vital in helping me decipher his (non-)actions. But for me now, there is not an easy answer, only the one I most dread: behave like I don't care if he and I are merely distant acquaintances, be upbeat and friendly when we run into each other, do not pursue him, but let him come to me if and when he chooses, and ultimately live my life just as if he never made an entrance.
If that puts your hair on edge like it does mine, then this may not be the best match to hang in there for. I may not last much longer quite honestly. But according to my friend, and I have witnessed her non-existent dating rituals, it is likely that a long game is required for the crab to begin to trust you, and then open up gradually, and then allow you into his heart. And maybe not dead center of the heart, but like the foyer area.
Sorry... no easy answers for the Aqua-Cancer matchup. If you want to hang in there like I still do, just keep reminding yourself that while he is all Water, you are the Water Bearer. You CAN do this if you exercise patience, not our strongest quality... 🙂
I think Cancer guys love Aqua women, but from what I've seen, it can turn violent because of a Cancer control and jealousy issues and the Aquas free and independent nature.
I hope you're right about cancer men liking aqua women, Inana04, but hopefully the violent part can be avoided by finding someway to meet in the middle. I'm a strange Aqua female that wants to be dominated by my crab boy. 🙂
I've only ever seen cancer guys like aqua girls but never fall in love. My cancer bf and i have a mutual aqua female friend. He appreciates her, thinks she's very nice, but doesn't even really pay her much mind even though she's around us a lot. She's really pretty too but he barely notices she's alive.
