So I gave my cancer what he's bn wanting... Space! I was tired of the off n on ... One month we together then u break it off for a week then come back. It's annoying. Then you say all the time of how important I am to you and you don't want to lose me but then u want to leave. I enjoyed him greatly but I feel like I shouldn't have to prove that my love is true and genuine! Thanks for listening.

I hope everything works out for you.
Sorry to hear about your dilemma.

Question,
Why is he in and out?
Has he explained this to you?
He says that I'm too good for him. He says that he has some things that he needs to work on him self. He doesn't come out and say what it is but he says that it isn't another person and he is in a really sh!tty place in life. I told him that we can take one day at a time. I'm not in a rush and I enjoy us getting to know each other. three days ago he made this joke and crazy scenario (which he was trying to see if I entertain any other guy within the six months of this relationship and I told him no.) and he didn't like the answer I gave....then he closed off. He later said that he should disappear for a few days. I told him okay and hopefully he will find what he needs. he always push me away. I have been patient but now Im starting to think that maybe I should read between the lines and just let everything go. I don't want someone who is sitting on the fence of wanting to hold on to me but wanting to escape as well.

taurus and cancer can be very on again off again when young and not totally mature. i've definitely been through that more than once with one. if you're gonna date a crab, as a bull, you need to be extremely patient and understanding because they'll do things that you will not believe they will do and will sometimes be shocked at certain things.

i've sworn never again after every time it ends with one. but i always end up back involved with one.

they're by far our best match though so i think it's worth really giving it your all.
This match has taken me for surprise bc im not a huge fan of the cancer men but I love his Taurus moon. I will have to agree that he has been a good match so far. If he would stop being doubtful with himself everything else would be great! We compliment each other so well but he let his overthinking destroy that.

His behavior appears more "Taurus-like" and less "Cancer-like."
I would say this was more attributed to his Moon.
If my money is funny, so is my reluctance to go forward with any potential relationship.
Call it a mixture of insecurity, pride, and determination.
My immediate goal and focus is money.
Too proud to accept help.
Too private to let anyone in...or to be seen as weak.
Besides, I have always wanted to be the best person I could be for my partner.
I'm the 'rock..

His Taurus Moon is a good thing.
At least he isn't expecting you to coddle him and take care of him.

Yea true. I totally understand but I need him to communicate that sometimes. I totally agree that a lot of his ways are more Taurus like at times. I feel like he is the watery version of me. I guess I'll just have patience and see what will happen next. Although this is slowly killing my VIA. She's hard to tame. Lol

To me, your cancer man sounds emotionally manipulative. I say this because I was in a relationship with one many years ago and he did the same as what your one is doing. He would constantly be in/out which was confusing. He would also pick fights over nothing. I later found out he would do this because he wanted me to constantly reassure him that I wanted him. So he would 'leave' hoping I'd beg him to stay. The fights were picked because he liked the making up bit. Too many times I would cry over nothing and feel insecure just so he could feel secure! When I confronted him about why he did this he said 'clever girl' and he felt some kind of achievement. I left his whiny arse.

I have similar examples from other Cancerian males such as relatives, friends etc.

I won't date a Cancerian Sun again! Mind you, I'm currently dating a Scorp with Cancer Moon and Mars so I'm keeping my eye out for any emotional manipulation!

Wow. this is exactly what is happening. It's pretty fucked up. I become butt hurt in feelings thinking what did I do so wrong for being honest and loving.

As a Cancer I really like this sign. I feel like Taurus women get me better than Aries by far.

I can understand your frustration though, we have alot of up and downs moments people dont want to deal with all the time.

We usually have to resort to friends with benefits because of this as sometimes it might be better if your with a Cancer but live in the house next door lol
I totally understand the ups and downs. I am a believer that ppl need alone time and etc. I just becoming burn out with him saying im very important to him and he caring about me but then push me away and thinks okay. what would be ur advice from a male view?

Hey OP! What are his other placements?I'm going through a similar phase but with an aqua guy.He does on and off every time! Recently he was on his 'off' phase.Totally went MIA on me,my mail goes unanswered.Then I get a call yesterday,I miss it.I call him back an hour later,he didn't answer.It's been over 24 hrs and no call back.Why call when you have to ignore in the first place?! I don't know,this is very annoying.I understand his need of space,I need it too and am detached myself but he's two steps ahead and his distancing every now and then is a bit too much for me.Also,whenever he breaks up,he'll tell me two weeks later that he likes me alot when I tell him I like him.Idk,he drives me crazy with the contradictions and since he knows I'll adjust,I guess it gives him the liberty to do it all the more.

his placements are

Taurus moon
leo venus
Capricorn mars
pisces asc


he answers me when I reach out to him so that's not an issue but his off n on is throwing me off.

my friend(a scorp) is dating a aqua-pisces cusps guy and he does the same on her but he has a stressful and busy job. Aqua guys are too flighty for me. They would drive me crazy.

Yeah, it wasn't great. I was 17 to 19. He was 20 to 22. Lasted about 18 months. It was exhausting. I didn't realise relationships weren't meant to be as that was. He did nice stuff too such as he'd walk the 7 ish miles to see me (lack of money for a cab/no direct public transport) and probably other stuff so it was not all bad BUT ultimately the whole emotional cesspit was too much. One of the last things he did was to put minging aftershave on knowing I hated it (Issey Miyake for men... Yuk!!) as it gave me a bad headache then he kept asking me for a cuddle. When I didn't give it he said 'but Adele at the bakery really likes it' or some shit like that so I told him to fuck off and get a cuddle from her! It just wasn't for me and since then I've noticed a pattern with Cancerian men and emotional manipulation. I can smell that shit a mile off! I've no real advice for you though. I'd just say if it's not making you/him happy and it can't be fixed or compromised on then where do you go from there?

Well... There were three:

Taurus Sun/Aries Venus and Mars/Sag Moon - he's now keyboard warrior - met twice before Xmas - he wants to fuck me but hasn't asked me out again. He says he doesn't chase. He sits on his arse at home texting me instead of asking me out so he's thoroughly in my Dial-a-Fuck category. I only entertain his messages as we do have some good convos and you never know when you might fancy a shag although I doubt it will ever happen as it's more fun not shagging him!

Taurus Sun/Aries Venus/Leo Moon - had two dates now, had a third booked in but I changed the date to next week, lovely fella, I just don't think I fancy him, haven't kissed but I'm unsure. He's a mechanic and I want my car fixed ‰

Scorp Sun/Cancer Moon and Mars/Virgo Venus - had date four this evening. After first date I thought I kinda maybe fancied him. Had a kiss, quite nice. I thought I'd be giving him the boot after date two (I'm so fickle) but I liked his touch (in cinema, nothing pervy) so I changed my mind! Date three I was still a bit unsure but he walked me to my car (it was fucking freezing) and he said for me to get in and keep warm while he stood and de-iced all my windows. And I mean ALL of them, perfectly! So date four I made chilli and took it round his place. To be fair, I wanted to see his environment and to be able to kiss a bit more without standing outside freezing my fucking tits off! I wanted to see how he responded to me and how I felt about him. No sex, just heavy petting ‰ I need more time but I can safely say I do fancy him which is nice to know and rather handy for him! It's taken four dates and about 17 hours to figure that out... I'm a slow burner!!

I know of a cancer female who loves bed two doors down her cappie husband. They have set days to spend together. Cancers must need lots of space

Its hard for people to understand this, we just need alone time and it looks like we are doing something bad by not wanting people around us at certain times.

If you just accept this we are usually great about trying to make it up to do you for being understanding.

I like it that way because I dont like my moods to be held against me and I like knowing im in full control of my emotions around people and there are times I know im not. If I dont have the energy to do something I dont want someone forcing me acting like I am a bad person if i dont do so and so. I dont like planning things in advance like going to weddings as I am not sure how my mental status will be on that day. Some are offended I would skip live events because of it and I have done it many times in the past. Most of the time I wasnt needed there anyway.;

A younger Cancer Man will do stuff like that. When we get older we are usually able to lay off and play it cool. Cancers are the children of the zodiac when it comes to romance. We have to fail miserably with people to understand what kind of person we need to be with.;

I deeply despised dating a cancerian! He expected me to pursue him, and I found him way too feminine! His moodiness was unbearable, and I am not into girlie, emotional men. What on earth does your Libra n Venus see in that wimp? He needs some space, ain't that bout nothing! You love his Taurus moon? Girl, I can't believe your Aquarius moon is tolerating this bum! Look at how attractive you are?

Cancers require an enormous amount of emotional nurturing like they want to feel that you feel them. the crab the crustacean doesn't have any vocal chords...so they will not communicate their needs...which means You will be left playing Sherlock homes with a grown-ass man.

Girl, I have no patience with Cancers - never let them know that u care- it makes their moody, rude, obnoxious, girlie, emotional disposition worst.

I'm all for space. I am independent so I don't care to be around him 24/7. I understand his moodiness and not demanding every sec of his time. It's the doubt that pushes me away. One min you want to be all in then the next min you don't know. I'm not asking him to be this perfect person. We are all a work in progress. Don't date me for a month then break up with me for a week or two then come back. That's annoying. Anyhoot we broke up completely. I'm moving forward. He says that I'm such this blessing to him and such this great person but just not for him. His loss.... Deuces to him

lol I hear ya. I lack water in my chart so I am attract to a lot of ppl who has a chart heavy with water. I'm a patient person. I think my aqua moon tries to see all views and try to be understanding so it works against me and esp my libra mars. My venus is in aries so I'm impulsive and rash most of the time in love.

@canmini I think it's a bit rude to sum up Taurus ppl like we are these ppl who attach to a person n beg for the person to stay. Y'all say u must understand a crab n their moods etc but then say this? We are ppl who take our time, heart, and money seriously. We are not having a hard time letting go. We are fighters. We don't just toss a year plus of our lives away as quickly as an Gemini or air/fire sign would. It's an investment. But at the same time if it's not worth it, we know how to move on. I feel like ur description fights the crab. Y'all can't let go of past memories, , grudges, etc. y'all still try to remain friends with exes from middle school.
