I have just started dating one...only been 3 weeks. So far it has been much easier then the Cap guy before him. Cap i fell for quick and very very hard and it ended quick and hard! 😢 I dont usually ever rush into anything...I am the typical slow and cautious Taurus but Cap guy was different. I wasnt even going to really date after him cause I didnt think I would find anybody that I liked but decided to just go for it. I met the Cancer guy very soon and so far I am loving it. The reason things ended with the Cap guy is because when problems started to arise I wanted to have open communication and he pulled back and didnt want to talk. With the Cancer he is very open with communication about everything flows very easily. He is very affectionate but not clingy and he loves to pamper me but is very much a take charge kinda man at the same time. He reminds me a lot of my grandpa that was a Cancer also. I never thought I would date a cancer again...dated one a few years back and he was so emotional and all over the place...like a girl. 😢 I know the one now has Virgo moon and ascendant and mercury and venus in Leo so I am thinking that might be why he doesnt seem like the typical cancer to me. Actually he has no other cancer in his chart but his sun. I have noticed that he does not come right out and voice his feeling but shows me by his actions how he feels...that kinda reminds me how a crab walks sideways. 🙂 One thing I did on the first date was setup boundaries...after reading about cancers it seems like you kinda have to do that...and I make him work for it. I dont call or text him first and even though at this point I am not talking to anybody else he knows that I expect him to court and woo me. I know he would like it to be exclusive at this point which basically it is but feel like it is too soon to put any labels on it. Once again this is only the first month so I'll let you know how it is going on month 3 and above. If it helps I feel like with them you have to be affectionate (cuddly, hand holding ect) and let them know that you are into them without being clingy but also have your own life and be confident in who you are. I know those are the things he is loving about me so far. 🙂 Best of luck to you with yours!
I have just started dating one...only been 3 weeks. So far it has been much easier then the Cap guy before him. Cap i fell Thankyou sugerbear for reply! Ive never dated a cap before mainly virgo's I think before I met my ex cancer - you have it lucky since my cancer was all over the place with emotional mood swings etc etc and suprisinglt she ended it out of the blue :/ I see what you mean about boundaries, I need to make them otherwise cancers tend to slip back into 'acting like a couple' although they don't want a relationship. It's difficult we are a young ages she is 17 and I am 18 so I assume she isn't emotional ready for a relationship in my view we dated 10 months - she's still quite clingy and we see eachother almost everyday at college so we are both stuck in a limbo.
Hi Brittfuzz. I am sorry you are going through so much with your cancer. I know it is hard but your heart will mend in time. You are both so young and since this is her first real relationship I am sure that you are right with the fact that the immaturity will show up in the relationship. She sounds a lot like my mom who is also very emotional when it comes to relationships. She has always had very emotionally charged relationships where she has dumped a plate of food on an ex because he didn't make a big enough deal out of how good the meal was or was late for dinner. My mom is very good at storming out and hanging up on people. I think it comes from not feeling appreciated because she loves so deep. I think this kind of behavior can be considered crazy to us Taurus girls who would never show such irrational behavior or let our emotions get carried away like that because we consider that being weak??_well at least I do! I know that with my mom she needs to be with someone who makes her his whole world. Where he consumes her and she consumes him??_if it is not this way she will question his love for her and problems will arise. I almost feel like with her she self sabotages her relationships sometimes because if she is not feeling like the most important thing in the other persons world then she creates problems because she want a reaction out of the person to let her know that they still care. I have watched her do this time and time again. I am not sure if this could be what your cancer is doing but it might be something to look at and watch. I think setting the boundaries will be good for you. If she sees you doing this and knows that you will not be there when ever she pops up it might make her rethink things. I wish you all the best of luck and if this is meant to be it will come back around. Maybe if you take a week or two to yourself and then try and sit down and talk to her with open communication on your part about your feels and wants it will help bring down any walls and fears that have risen on her side. Cancers like it when you are vulnerable and open. I think it is because they are so emotionally driven that when they see us being vulnerable it puts us more on the same level as them.
I'm sending you hugs to help you get through all this...so hopefully you will feel them over there in your neck of the woods. 🙂
sugerbear: Naww haha thankyou for all your advice - sorry if groan on usually I wouldn't with ex's Ive dated around 5 previous people but none of them felt this intense even when they have broken up with me, usually it would take a few weeks to heal but this girl makes me weak to my knee's. She does want alot of attention - yet she want's quite a lot of space to be herself. we sat down today together to talk about things get everything open (or so on my end) she finds it hard to open up to anyone. we both admit the feels are still there, it's still hard on both ends but she told me she ended it because of my issues - my controlling behaviour that she didn't feel free enough to be herself. I admit I was a fair bit but not up to any drastic point just out of paranoia when she went to parties I would tell her I didn't like it etc she also said she can't imagine being with one person forever which confused me but she is a confusing person, she doesn't know what she wants in life atm it must be hard since the rest of her friends at college including me know what we want todo next year (since it's our last year of college) so we go off to uni and she doesn't know what todo. she said she can't imagine dating or wanting another person full stop. she finds it sickening to imagine someone else touching her but refuses to be with me again - for now she doesn't know what the future will hold if I change my ways etc. I think if anything would happen again it would if we both moved on going back to the old relationship wouldn't do any good. I hope things work out one way or another she's going off to japan for a month next year and im leaving to go to another college for a year before going to uni so we will barely see eachother hopfully by then everything will become clear
thankyou for the helo guys and reading my posts haha
I'm a libra but I have a Taurus rising and my last bow was a cancer man. Sugerbear pretty much sums up what I would have said tho. I was never attracted to cancer men in the past because they seemed really whiny and girly to me. When I met this cancer he was just the right amount of sensitive with the perfect mix of manly. But he has a Aquarius moon so I think that helped a lot. I think our biggest issue was vulnerability. I was head over heels in love with him but I have a extremely hard exterior. He's pretty much the same way. He would get in his moods and hide from the world for weeks at a time and I didn't know how to deal with that. Maybe had I been more direct and formed boundaries we would still be together today.
