Cancer Men

Cancerian man is home-loving, gentle and sincere. He responds deeply to life and to every change in emotion or feelings around him. His goodness far excels his weaker, depressive side which can get unbearable and drown an affair in melancholy. His moods can be touchy, he can be as snappy as an alligator and he takes everything too personally, fearing rejection.

Yet on the surface he will play the extrovert, be flirtatious, the lunatic every one loves at the all-night party. A Crab man is overtly sentimental. He will take a long time to pluck up enough courage to phone you, until he is sure in his Crab-like way he can move in for love. He might seem mildly indifferent: playing guessing games about his true motives with you when he first takes you out to dinner. He loves food, and if you offer him breakfast in bed he might just agree to scrambling the eggs himself.

This man needs smothering with affection, and sexually can be languid and lazy when it suits him, especially once he feels secure in a relationship. Typical of Water signs, he feeds on gentle rhythms, quiet arousal and delicate love-making. Don't ever mention your past boyfriends because he will see vivid mental movies about where you have been, and who you have been with. Cancerians are very possessive, and if you mention ex-partners, he will wallow in self-pity for days.

Don't ever look at anyone once you're married. You are collected, part of his acquisitions and his very personal private collection. Cancer men hide out in the dark corners of pubs, or at the edge of the incrowd. If they use their extrovert shell to cover up their weaker personality they can be awkward to spot. Sometimes they hover in the wings, hiding from possible failure, appearing as confident and convincing as any fire sign. But around the full moon you can usually spot them when they become touchy and moody, not at all like any Fire Sign! He is easily flattered, and often gullible in the face of a strong protective woman. He has a cheeky, little-boy-lost appeal that he takes to parties in his search for the perfect soul-mate, and he needs one desperately for all his apparent self-confidence and arrogant manner. It's misleading. Beneath that gregarious shell is a soft heart. There will only ever be one woman at a time for a Cancerian man - at least you can be assured of that.

He may not admit this, but he can feel emotional currents before they are even expressed. He is an instinctive person and rarely logical when it comes to his own motives. Many times this man has strong family ties - especially with his mother. If he doesn't, then often times he has mother "issues" that hold him back from having a healthy relationship until he resolves them. Whatever the case may be, he often yearns for a secure home life and family.

Be forewarned that he is tenaciously self protective, but in the same vein he can be one of the most protective and nurturing partners and parents of the zodiac. What is important is that he finds a person who honors his great gift for sensitivity and helps him express it in a healthy way. Never one to put himself in a position of being rejected, he will rarely take the initiative to move forward unless he feels absolutely safe with a person.

Absolutes are difficult, so this makes him one man who needs to know -without a doubt- that you are interested. Be brave, be vulnerable and show him you care. If you like this man, he needs to know it right away. He likes graceful displays of affection, as they reassure him that he is liked. Cool, detached- types might intrigue him, but they rarely impress him in the long run. He likes a person who is not afraid to be soft, feminine and gentle. If you can act like a friend, mother and lover - all in one, your first date won't be the last. In matters of intimacy, it is best to start with long promising looks and affectionate hand- holding. He likes a passionate, sensual woman, but rarely expects the whole package to be delivered in one night. Be yourself around him. Looks aren't that important to Cancer males, but do know some fabulous recipes! Tell him all your funny stories, he likes to laugh.

Devil in You Sometimes Cancer finds it rather hard to face life. It becomes too much for him. He can be a little timid and retiring, when things don't go too well. When unfortunate things happen, he is apt to just shrug and say. "Whatever will be will be." He can be fatalistic to a fault.

The uncultivated Cancer is a bit lazy. He doesn't have very much ambition. Anything that seems a bit difficult he'll gladly leave to others. He may be lacking in initiative. Too sensitive, when he feels he's been injured, he'll crawl back into his shell and nurse his imaginary wounds. The immature Moon Child often is given to crying when the smallest thing goes wrong. Some Cancers find it difficult to enjoy themselves in environments outside their homes. They make heavy demands on others, and need to be constantly reassured that they are loved. Lacking such reassurance, they may resort to sulking in silence.
