Went on two dates with a cancer, she has been very hard to open up. Still very secretive.

After not talking for one day, she started with a good morning, then started opening up, texted good morning and good night every day for about 2 weeks.

We went on second date, she texted me afterwards and said thank you for everything and drive safe.

Suddenly next 2 days her texting became less (although she is always busy).

Asked her if she was interested (she did tell me a few weeks back she needs patience), she said ..."I believe in right guy, wrong time is the wrong time and that she can't commit 100% to anybody because of her goals and it would be selfish to try".

Is this a cancer trait of being confused with her feelings or being scared to commit? Or is it just a let down?

She went from cold, to hot, to really cold.

We haven't talked now in 3 days.

HELP!

Give her space. Cancers scare easily. They are like timid deer at first. One wrong move and they will flee. It’s best to say something like-

You really like her and will give her space, and leave the contact to her,

But you should also say something like

“Just don’t wait too long...I’m a good catch ya know wink wink”

Or whatever

You have to give her space but don’t be a doormat cause that’s a massive TURNOFF

I’m the meantime keep dating and don’t wait for her

Is that normal of them to turn cold thar quickly? Going from opening up slowly to saying that to me and ignoring me? When she said that, I told her I respect it.

I ended up texting her today and said “is Carlos just going to disappear and go back in her shell?” (Carlos is an inside joke)

No it became 50/50 naturally texting. She would text me first good morning/good night depending on who got up/went to sleep first.

Did she suddenly go cold because I asked if she’s still interested?

Maybe she thought you have some girls on the side. I wouldn't bother with someone if I'm sharing

No I’m not like that at all. I’m either talking to one or none because I’m selective.

If you only went on two dates and she’s being like that just drop her and move on to the next. I mean- there are plenty fish in the sea. Who really cares?? NEXT!!

I know what you mean.

I’m just not like that. My life is crazy busy due to responsibility of family business/international traveling.

It’s hard for any girl to grab my interest, she just did.

She sounds like someone who plays mind games a lot. You are convenient for her and she's on the lookout for something else. I wouldn't assume she'd been opening up to me telling me about her exercise plans, who cares? or bringing up stupid stuff like I'm busy and have goals etc. Everybody's busy in this world. Guess what, my guy is a police officer and he couldn't be any busier, but he's always on the phone keeping in touch with me. At some point he even freaked me out with his blunt honesty. He knew what exactly he wanted from me and let me know, alas it's a match made in heaven. I say leave her alone with her mind games and find someone decent.

I just said the past 2 days she didn’t text me. She really does not use her phone a lot. We whats app and her last seen is either way early in the morning or night.

I don't know buddy, I don't do well with hideous people. I was talking to a virgo for a little bit before pisces and it was a real torture, after a month of talking I knew nothing about him., hot and cold, disappearing for days to weeks. If I was you I'd be honest with her, state your intentions clearly and tell her what you want and expect, also let her know that you need good communication and won't be settling for anything less. From there she either takes you or leaves you and you won't be hanging forever waiting for messages and asking dxp. Give her a week or 2 to make up her mind and then be gone if she doesn't change her crappy attitude

Every sane mind would react in a positive way, who doesn't appreciate genuine bluntness? I say give it a shot and drop a ball in her court, if she wants you she will be yours, if she disappears then she never really wanted anything real to begin with, so you get your answer nevertheless.

Your first post says she wants patience and can’t give 100% . She isn’t an avid texter and is busy. You’ve had 2 dates.

She’s not confused.

She’s saying she takes things slow and not sure if you’re a match.

Time frames might not match up because you assume she’s lacking interest compared to yourself.

She doesn’t know you do she takes her time and is cautious.

What’s wrong with her taking her time?


You’re the first person to say that out right and I respect that.

Do you think there’s still a chance if I play the patience game with her?

I don’t get why being patient is a “game”?

It’s like you want a commitment or more attention after two dates.

Whenever guys have come at me too fast or hard, I’ve always just seen it as red flags.

I can see that.

She did text me back though. I’m going to play it steady and smooth!

No it became 50/50 naturally texting. She would text me first good morning/good night depending on who got up/went to sleep first.

Did she suddenly go cold because I asked if she’s still interested?

Maybe she thought you have some girls on the side. I wouldn't bother with someone if I'm sharing

No I’m not like that at all. I’m either talking to one or none because I’m selective.

But does she know that?

No she doesn’t.

Is that something to tell her?

Yes, nowadays it's easy to think a relationship is going somewhere while the other person could only want to hook up. At least give her that verification of where you stand with her and MAYBE she'll trust you a bit more

She made it clear from the get-go that she was not into hook ups at all!

I’m not that type of guy either.

That suddenly you think?

If I take the more gentle approach, do you believe I can slowly make my way back to her? In the sense of getting her to open up again.

Give her space. Cancers scare easily. They are like timid deer at first. One wrong move and they will flee. It’s best to say something like-

You really like her and will give her space, and leave the contact to her,

But you should also say something like

“Just don’t wait too long...I’m a good catch ya know wink wink”

Or whatever

You have to give her space but don’t be a doormat cause that’s a massive TURNOFF

I’m the meantime keep dating and don’t wait for her


I agree to this but not the winking part about admitting you're a good catch. That is a turn off, we will decide if you are

Take things slow.

Cancers gets really paranoid to commitment to be honest. We want to make sure you're there for the long haul.

You'll be supportive of our goals and wait. But at the same we would like to hear from you and be offered to go out on dates.

But dont be persistence about it, you'll look too desperate and it's a major turn off.


Thanks Echo!

Do you believe I still have a chance if I slowly start talking to her again and taking a lighter approach to her?

Also, she did respond to my text today. Is this a good sign? I’ve read cancers can completely shut you out if they don’t like you.

Honestly, I feel she might be on the fence. Usually if I like someone I'll keep them around and at least let them know they're on my mind. Maybe shes too focused on her goals to be open to a relationship and doesnt realize it

I feel that as well. I notice her mood swings and she’s on one now. She literally shifted into work mode and is just going off with it.

During our first date, she told me that she doesn’t text her friends back because she’s too busy or forgets.

There’s just something about this girl I like, that’s why I’m pursuing.

Take things slow.

Cancers gets really paranoid to commitment to be honest. We want to make sure you're there for the long haul.

You'll be supportive of our goals and wait. But at the same we would like to hear from you and be offered to go out on dates.

But dont be persistence about it, you'll look too desperate and it's a major turn off.

Thanks Echo!

Do you believe I still have a chance if I slowly start talking to her again and taking a lighter approach to her?

Also, she did respond to my text today. Is this a good sign? I’ve read cancers can completely shut you out if they don’t like you.

When I'm inconsistent it means I don't really like that guy or I'm thinking wether I could see myself in a relationship with him.

So back off don't text her anything. She will make up her mind on her own. We cancers don't need to be convinced. We pick.

She’s never been inconsistent in that way. I know her job is demanding, but her texts became more predictable.

She still puts an effort to texting though. Until 3 days ago, she always kept the convo going. Even if she sent a text that she felt ended the convo and I didn’t respond, she would send another one within 30 mins-1 hr to keep it going...

JFC texting good morning and night to someone you’ve dated once. I’d DTB immediately.

Ya way to red flag clingy/possessive

You aren’t helping bitch! 😂😂🧟‍♀️

Wut

Read again! 😂😂😂👍

Not helping at all!

It was actually sweet to see that side of her. They are nurturers aren’t they?

Give her space. Cancers scare easily. They are like timid deer at first. One wrong move and they will flee. It’s best to say something like-

You really like her and will give her space, and leave the contact to her,

But you should also say something like

“Just don’t wait too long...I’m a good catch ya know wink wink”

Or whatever

You have to give her space but don’t be a doormat cause that’s a massive TURNOFF

I’m the meantime keep dating and don’t wait for her

I agree to this but not the winking part about admitting you're a good catch. That is a turn off, we will decide if you are

Yep a huge turn off. Never do that 🤣
click to expand



Not a turn off for me. He’s doing this 😉

To soften the statement that he’s a good catch and make it like a joke.

It’s also putting the idea in her head that he has options and she needs to smarten tf up.

It’s called the concept of scarcity. But to each their own. Personally, I like a man who is wanted by many and not just a lap dog 🤷🏼‍♀️

If he wasn’t the confident type who KNEW he was a good catch I wouldn’t be interested in him. I like men with good self worth as well.

I’ll tell you this. We did start to flirt with each other more, but every time I asked her straight forward questions, she retreated and became more distant (I tested her 2-3 times) because she’s very mysterious.

This is my first time talking to a Cancer so I need as much advise as I can get! She keeps retracting and then opening back up slowly.

Well I will tell you my experience with a Scorpio I just had and posted it on the boards here. We went on a date and he asked me a million questions and it turned me right off so I’m just not interested anymore. Too invasive for me. He keeps asking me out again and I told him I’m not interested cause he asks too many questions. So he said he would stop but it’s too late. I’m over it

I stay away from a lot of questions with her because she is more reserved. I’ve asked her out 3-4 times and got 2 dates out of it, but was never pushy. I understood her schedule and she understood mine. She played a little hard to get and would always say something a long the lines of “I’ll let you know” in a flirty way and later she would.

I’m a Libra btw!

Yes I know you’re a libra I was just saying I went out with a scorpio

And you said she retreats when you ask her straight forward questions.

We don’t like to be questioned. At least I don’t. I’m not a novel you can read in one night.

I’m telling you my experience when someone asks me a lot of questions it turns me off and I’m not interested anymore.

I’m not sure why you are so obsessed with this person when you barely know them.

I mean...I know us cancer women are irresistible and all but still...

💁🏼‍♀️😂

By the way I also went out with a Libra once but I found him to be too much of a perfectionist/fake for me. I stuck around for a bit just to be sure, but became uninterested in his whole “everything and everyone needs to be perfect all the time for show” baloney.

Not saying you are that way. Just saying.

He also still texts me from time to time and asks where I went and when we will see each other again.

I agree with you!

I throw a personal question in every once in a while to see if she’s opening up or not, never pushy. I respect her.

As for this particular girl, I’ve been set up on many dates, but never clicked with any of them until I started talking to her. I am picky myself, but I’m also extremely busy because of work.

I actually told her, to show her I’m opening up, that I actually get nervous around her. She is a catch in my opinion because of her personality, her thinking, vision, and how she plans for everything. She’s also drop-dead gorgeous in my opinion.

So yes, I’ve fallen hard for this Cancer, but I don’t want to ruin my chances.

Why not try just not asking any questions altogether. Let her open up on her own. When she divulges some sort of personal info act all enthusiastic but don’t follow it with questions.

This seems like too much for me. You sure are putting a ton of thought into this. Who has the patience and time for that!

If it’s meant to be it will be. You can’t force it. Just chill out man

I know I am, it’s just something about her.

In all honesty, I want to just send her a message and tell her the truth about my intentions and not expect an answer back.

That way I’ll know for sure if she has any interest or if she was playing all along.

I value honesty as a person, doesn’t bother me if it makes me look weak or not. My life is already busy as is but it will ease my mind.

Should I just do it?

I understood her schedule and she understood mine. She played a little hard to get and would always say something a long the lines of “I’ll let you know” in a flirty way and later she would.

I’m a Libra btw!

Yes I know you’re a libra I was just saying I went out with a scorpio

And you said she retreats when you ask her straight forward questions.

We don’t like to be questioned. At least I don’t. I’m not a novel you can read in one night.

I’m telling you my experience when someone asks me a lot of questions it turns me off and I’m not interested anymore.

I’m not sure why you are so obsessed with this person when you barely know them.

I mean...I know us cancer women are irresistible and all but still...

💁🏼‍♀️😂

By the way I also went out with a Libra once but I found him to be too much of a perfectionist/fake for me. I stuck around for a bit just to be sure, but became uninterested in his whole “everything and everyone needs to be perfect all the time for show” baloney.

Not saying you are that way. Just saying.

He also still texts me from time to time and asks where I went and when we will see each other again.

I agree with you!

I throw a personal question in every once in a while to see if she’s opening up or not, never pushy. I respect her.

As for this particular girl, I’ve been set up on many dates, but never clicked with any of them until I started talking to her. I am picky myself, but I’m also extremely busy because of work.

I actually told her, to show her I’m opening up, that I actually get nervous around her. She is a catch in my opinion because of her personality, her thinking, vision, and how she plans for everything. She’s also drop-dead gorgeous in my opinion.

So yes, I’ve fallen hard for this Cancer, but I don’t want to ruin my chances.

Why not try just not asking any questions altogether. Let her open up on her own. When she divulges some sort of personal info act all enthusiastic but don’t follow it with questions.

This seems like too much for me. You sure are putting a ton of thought into this. Who has the patience and time for that!

If it’s meant to be it will be. You can’t force it. Just chill out man

I know I am, it’s just something about her.

In all honesty, I want to just send her a message and tell her the truth about my intentions and not expect an answer back.

That way I’ll know for sure if she has any interest or if she was playing all along.

I value honesty as a person, doesn’t bother me if it makes me look weak or not. My life is already busy as is but it will ease my mind.

Should I just do it?

If I had a dollar every time a guy said “just something about her” about a cancer woman I wouldn’t be asking everyone on here if it says I’ll be rich in my chart 😂

I mean go ahead. I’m getting tired for you about all this thinking. Just do whatever makes you feel better. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Give her space. Cancers scare easily. They are like timid deer at first. One wrong move and they will flee. It’s best to say something like-

You really like her and will give her space, and leave the contact to her,

But you should also say something like

“Just don’t wait too long...I’m a good catch ya know wink wink”

Or whatever

You have to give her space but don’t be a doormat cause that’s a massive TURNOFF

I’m the meantime keep dating and don’t wait for her

I agree to this but not the winking part about admitting you're a good catch. That is a turn off, we will decide if you are

Yep a huge turn off. Never do that 🤣

Not a turn off for me. He’s doing this 😉

To soften the statement that he’s a good catch and make it like a joke.

It’s also putting the idea in her head that he has options and she needs to smarten tf up.

It’s called the concept of scarcity. But to each their own. Personally, I like a man who is wanted by many and not just a lap dog 🤷🏼‍♀️

If he wasn’t the confident type who KNEW he was a good catch I wouldn’t be interested in him. I like men with good self worth as well.

I’ll tell you this. We did start to flirt with each other more, but every time I asked her straight forward questions, she retreated and became more distant (I tested her 2-3 times) because she’s very mysterious.

This is my first time talking to a Cancer so I need as much advise as I can get! She keeps retracting and then opening back up slowly.

Well I will tell you my experience with a Scorpio I just had and posted it on the boards here. We went on a date and he asked me a million questions and it turned me right off so I’m just not interested anymore. Too invasive for me. He keeps asking me out again and I told him I’m not interested cause he asks too many questions. So he said he would stop but it’s too late. I’m over it

Went on two dates with a cancer, she has been very hard to open up. Still very secretive.

After not talking for one day, she started with a good morning, then started opening up, texted good morning and good night every day for about 2 weeks.

We went on second date, she texted me afterwards and said thank you for everything and drive safe.

Suddenly next 2 days her texting became less (although she is always busy).

Asked her if she was interested (she did tell me a few weeks back she needs patience), she said ..."I believe in right guy, wrong time is the wrong time and that she can't commit 100% to anybody because of her goals and it would be selfish to try".

Is this a cancer trait of being confused with her feelings or being scared to commit? Or is it just a let down?

She went from cold, to hot, to really cold.

We haven't talked now in 3 days.

HELP!


I'm not a Cancer but I am going through this WITH a Cancer except I am in your dates shoes. It's not that I don't want to commit, there isn't anyone else but I'm also going through a hard time where I cannot commit and it has absolutely nothing to do with him and everything to do with me. Wrong timing, we have talked very little in two days as well.

I haven't read the other comments yet but as someone who is in your Cancers shoe's, she has been upfront with you. There isn't anything going on behind the scenes, it isn't that she doesn't care, she said she needs patience and if you can't give that to her, you should move on. No disrespect at all, you deserve love and whatever you want, I just don't think that there are any hidden agendas here

When you told him you can’t commit... Did he go in his shell?
