Tell me why your sign could or couldn't work with a Cancer Male/Female.

i hate myself foe being a strong cancerian moon as well, with moon.in cancer falling in 4th house along with venus
I feel I could make it with a Cancer sun. My rising, Venus, and Jupiter are in Cancer so there is somewhat a level of understanding. I feel I can move with people's emotions quite well, and can make them understand how I feel about a situation without dwelling in it too long. That's really important for Cancer placements imo since they truly don't want to feel shitty about things for a long time. They want to feel it, get over it, then move to the next thing. I'm pretty much like that myself. I know some people dislike it it, but I'm fine with moods and emotions in other people. I also don't take offense or get too annoyed when people vent their issues to me. I deeply like love, romance, and emotion too, so have no idea why I haven't found myself a Cancer woman yet lol.
Well if we're talking in general terms, Leo/Cancer can work because both are looking for a deep love along with emotional security. Leo is a "fatherly" sign while Cancer is a "motherly" sign. The two complement each other in that they are run by the Sun and Moon respectively. One is more external while the other is more internal.

The problem is Leos can be too extroverted for Cancer sensibilities, while Cancers can be too introverted for Leo sensibilities. Leos may want to go out more while Cancers may want to stay inside. So there does take some understanding for the two to work.

I find friendships are pretty easy to maintain, but I'm a Cancer Mercury too, so I may be biased.

Shrug. Maybe I could ..the right one. I am cancer though. I do feel they would be bringing the same as I am bringing to the table.

But on the other hand we could have an understanding. So maybe a Cancer guy.

Too slow, gets pissed off easily. But I have a Cancer bestie, we are doing fine smile and hopefully she will never feed me those oysters she loves so much. Just don't do this to your Aries bestieLaughing

Cancer men hit on me frequently, but, they complain too much, act like crybabies, wouldn't deal with it.
My best friend is an Aries and we get along swimmingly she always calls me a hoe because I have options but focus one person and I always call her a hoe because she is always with a new boy whenever we talk??? no sensitivity or anything!!

Honestly I feel those old zodiac post do not really apply much anymore. I know of very few sensitive homebody cancer's. Most want to be leaders now and do not like being told what to do .

I'm aqua.

Cancer men like to spend all day trying to get you in a bad mood so they can say shit like "what's wrong?"

Until you want to murder them.

Too emotional rollercoaster like.
I feel like y'all shy copycat behavior can be a bit much like our personalities contrast because we are both too shy and neither really intends to put themselves out there. Though a cancer will it isn't really the scene they are looking for!

Correct, most Cancers aren't the shut-ins or "Debbie downers" people claim they are. I know plenty of Cancers who have a zest for life and have traveled more than some Sagittariuses. Cancers are also hilariously stubborn, though most people forget that somehow. It's part of the charm.

The men and the women are also very different people too. While I've seen the women go through mood swings, they are fairly even tempered. I've noticed the men can be far more sullen or consistently "moody". It's not all tears and romance novels with Cancers though and to be fair all zodiac signs are generalized in some manner as well.

Cancers are usually more cerebral and sarcastic too. You can also be very productive people, juggling multiple projects at once. You all tend to have this hard exterior that covers a softer interior. That sensitivity can result in overthinking and even clinginess.

Of course these are all generaliations. Your own person placements and aspects will influence how you actually feel.

I like that. I can call my friends something like that, they know I love them, so it's not mean at all)) my crabby is a sensitive girlie, plus she's very polite and always worries what other people might think of her smile

Yea that's how I was before now I'm more outgoing and worry less about what people think but I'm a major girlie which is why I don't worry much I think once I found out my other placements my personality changed lol
my sisters dated cancer men, one of them liked the joke and poke with her, but she HATED that so much. and said she didnt like his type of jokes and envisioned the future bleak with his poking and said, no fucking way. lol trying to get a rise out of her at times. (hmm my husband kind of does that and OMG. so annoying. but i'm dumb so i forgot about it) lol my other sister didnt have a cancer guy that joked and poked, but he was more mellow yellow, really sweet guy. mathematician genius. i realized she likes the go-getter types with Leo mars and Libra stellium, the types that get on a motorcycle and vroooom vroooom!!

and is super independent.

Can men hurt you easily? My friend wouldn't even meet any guys for 9 years because of a bad breakup she had.

I think not, at one point i liked a guy and he was a bitch but i wanted to see the best in him but that's about it i didn't go EMO or anything when things didn't workout between us. typically i think cancers can feel in a relationship if things are going to workout before hand and will be withdrawn from relationships to a depth just to make sure that it they don't let their guard down for the wrong person. But once after a really bad break up with a female i had i was a wreck for like 3 days but only because it was my longest relationship (2 weeks????) i was like 16 though but haven't dated a girl since they absolutely repulse me ??? she is just probably being her typical cautious self to make sure i doesn't happen again.

I don't care how the male crabs will show you love by straight hating on you on a consistent basis

I don't want to date that
I've never actually met a male crab! What do they truthfully act like?

What on earth makes you think as an Aquarius, that I'm shy?

The Aquariuses I have meet are shy or maybe reserved. The one female i met was very quiet and not very outgoing had one friend and kept to herself. The guy I meet he is shy, sweet, but keeps to himself and doesn't talk as much as he listens. Which word would you use?
They're too emotional for me. I'm a Taurus, but I have an Aqua moon, and it's just too much to deal with. I find them to be better friends.

Because she is a teenager?
