What is it with Cancers?
They ignore calls...don't return calls or answer texts... NO manners! And this is even if they are not in their shells and things are good with you and them.

hahaha, I do this too -- only when I am going through some sort of life-changing situation. I try to figure things out and so I drop off the face of the earth until I do.
Hmmm, I wonder if my midheaven being in cancer has anything to do with it or may its just my Aqua influence.
However, I wouldn't do disappear out of my parents life or if I were involved with someone, I wouldn't ignore them ... I think this is where the differences come to play.
Uhhh... I hate it! Worst if it's around the full moon!
agreed with unusualcancer.. i would sometimes become "unavailable" because i need time figuring out things or some problem by myself.

Cappy, i heard that caps and cancer is dissimilar but similar enough in some ways.. do u think that is true?
Leo Kitten... It is not a "my guy" thing because it is not my guy I am talking about.
"That said, I admit there are times when I am feeling reclusive and prefer to be left alone for a few days...but usually I will respond...eventually."
"... i would sometimes become "unavailable" because i need time figuring out things or some problem by myself."
Ok well I guess that's probably it then. Now that I have thought it through the Cancers I am talking about are going through some stuff. I noticed it this whole weekend... Friday I was to have a meeting with my Cancer boss and he just locked up in his office all day, so we did not meet again. I sent emails and he still hasn't replied. (I don't care cuz it's just my boss, no big deal.) My cousin (Cancer), I have been trying to get her all weekend... she has not answered nor called me back. (She is having relationship problems). One of my bestfriends (male Cancer), I have left messages for him from Friday... it is the end of the day and he still has not returned my calls. Given he also has alot on his plate. (new job, planning wedding ...)
Overload of stress causing one to avoid others... I understand that, but it can get annoying, because, alot of Cancers seem to do this and do not consider the other person's reasoning for the call in the first place. It could be an emergency or something very important.

The Cancers I know reply almost immediately...if you know there's truely something going on, then why expect a reply because you want them to?
Not just Cancers - a lot of other signs are bad with responding emails when there's a lot on their plate. Maybe make a phonecall or go see them in person if urgent.
By the way, is this a Taurus thing? My mom and sis are both tauruses and they go on and on and on about how I didn't pick up/reply when they called or messaged...noticed it from my taurus friends too...

Wow..
Complicated you sound EXACTLY like me. I mean...I could've typed everything you wrote in this thread. That is so wierd.
I'm scared now.
Seriously, I think you may be my sister from another mother or something.
Or maybe my parents aren't my parents and our mother is somewhere out there looking for the both of us.
Maybe our parents lied to us and we're both adopted and instead of finding each other in the mall like Tia and Tamera, we've found each other on DXP.
Scary...

Oh and Brandy's song Focus describes my present mood. I should put that shizzle on my voicemail.
"If anybody asks for me tell them I'll be...right back.. in a real short time...it's just that I lost my mind I gotta find it. Soon as I hop on my train of thought I'll get back to you. Pronto... to collect myself... Aint really nothing you can do to help"
But I'm getting ready to change my number anyway so..
yeah GB..what's up with you??
HI Complicated l did send you a private cheer me up note, but you and Moon_ eyes have got me Laughing, my
head off.!...Ha ha ha .... when we Cancers are MAD! MAD!, God help! folk who cross us, as Complicated said we
will most likely kill them, our inner tempers are scary!.
Don't let those ass holes !..mess our heads,if there is one thing about Cancers !, we know others thoughts before they know what they are trying to do, so it is a blessing , Complicated and moon eyes secretly Laugh at those DICK HEADS..!
the reason they need our help is because were the real deal ....and they want us help then because the penny as dropped that most folk in this world are just selfish, like them selves most likely, yes we can be emotional ROLL A COASTER ..!! but thats just our thoughts and indecision messing with our heart's Kill's me every time , so when we feel this way we go into our shells unselfishly so, we do not affect others, who accuse us of be selfish.then they want us to to crack because there not happy, Complicated you will solve your problem as l will because when we decide something's gotta GO! they never get close again , thats what they fail to REALIZE!.
Stupid l know but l myself did something stupid this year and some Mad Russian Bitch! ,Hi - Jacked my emotion's telling me she loved me and could not live with out me, HELL! l am not even Gay! no offence but only CANCER'S can understand this when someone tell's us over and over they love us 15 phone call's a day every day and endless sms's until three in the morning! , we believe them thats just the way were are, BLACK and White no Grey areas, so when l gave her my heart and friendship and let her stay in my room on Holiday although l knew she was into me and l have a fiance,l don't want cry's of love at my hotel door until l give in after a lot of drunken soul searching! then BANG! You Guessed it we Slept together, Messed up ! totally F**ked up more like , so ashamed and did it many times while there on holiday till l got hold of my senses and told her to stop calling my room, and she should sleep with her so called man , but l realize he is just to cover up her real sexual needs.
Now l got to see the real side , with no regard to my feelings She just cut me off , and said we cannot be friends , will not talk and left me feeling like a used token on her mission to score with the straight female community lm hurting still and confused , although l know its just that l started to fall
it's ok.. i deal with it.. my planets were like all over the map...so im confusing as hell.. but i tend to learn more on handling myself lately... duh! maturity do play vital part..
oh yeah..we so know we cant be all happy people most of the time.. and i dont think we cud really deal with any of that...that is not normal. oh and about us cancers being personal therapy for everyone and when it is time for us need someone badly.. that is so true and ya know.. you n i could be well deal with ourselves in that mood rather than anyone else..
Lol @ Moon...
well yeah.. i always wonder if i should have been a Psychologist. I think we're the uncertified Psychologist...lol
lol Moon..
and i have been on this pc like hours and i need to get my butt off yet i cant...
Complicated... I have to ask though... did you ever express to your bull how much he meant to you? How did the way you treated him differ from the way you treated past relationships?
PS... if the connetion was that good... trust me... he still thinks about out you... if he wasn't in his "situation" he would probably have made his way to your house by now....
*connection
* about you (-out)

"They ignore calls...don't return calls or answer texts... NO manners! And this is even if they are not in their shells and things are good with you and them."
I know a lot of cancers like this. They seriously don't think there's anything wrong with it either. I think it's because they're worried you might want something from them, and their method in that respect is to hold off as long as possible getting back to you, if at all, soes that you might have found another option. Wait, does that make sense?
Have you ever not returned one of their calls?!!!
DOUBLE STANDARD!!!
omg Complicated..my and Moon saying abt psychologist was more as a joke..i dont think that's what makes me though..i couldn't even deal with my own problems and stuff that we feel deep...and how am i supposed to give the exact solution to other people...
but you know..i so agree with what you have said.. we have power to change ourselves and believe in God... and oh..i do know when that virgo rising becoming a cookie monster...
LOL Comlicated... I love them... I watch them all the time... but they ain't getting no money out of me. But they aren't the only ones... alot of people that are in the church jack people up for money. Before you can get a prayer nowadays you have to send all this money. I was watching one where a guy wanted you to send a whole mortgage payment, to recieve blessings. I almost kicked my TV down.
But the message that you recieve from Jakes and Dollar are very powerful, very moving. Trust me... many days I wake up with so many questions about life, how unfair it is, ready to give up and I put on the TV and either one of them are on, and it automatically changes my thinking to look at things in a more spiritual way. There is another lady on there that I like, very powerful woman as well... she went through alot when she was younger so she can relate to hardships.
Figured...
I asked because my cancer guy is alot like that. He will say something, then take it away. Like... "I'm sorry, shouldn't have said that." I'd be like "Thanks I am glad that you did." He bought me this awsome watch for a gift... but then said "You can exchange it if you don't like it." I was so shocked I couldn't speak I was smiling ear to ear. I wear that watch everyday. I can see right though him and I know he really cares, but sometimes I wish that he would just let his guard down a little and express his feelings more. He'll tell me things like "I do things for you that I have not done for any other girl." I don't ask about his past so... I don't know exactly how much more he does.
He was drunk one night and I asked him if he loved me... he said "yeah... you're in my f'king head and I can't get you out and I don't want to get too attached to you because I know you're going to hurt me." He would have never been this honest if he was sober, he would have just been silent. Or sometimes he'll say... "I know you've got some other guy that you're gonna leave me for." I am constantly trying to prove my honesty to him.
He's been hurt... hurt really bad. An older leo chick f'cked him up. He told me that she was very controlling, cheated on him, physically fought him, stalked him and hated his mother. That b*tch got what was coming to her now though... the man she has beats the hell out of her (not that it is right) and does everything bad to her that she did to my guy. Karma... it's a biatch. When my guy and I started talking , she still tried to control him... telling him that I was too young for him (6 years younger), he's not gonna get anything in life from me, all kinda sh*t. This time, I have more than her, she still lives with her parents and is almost 40 with 2 kids. But in time... he got wiser... I didn't need to trash her for him figure her out, he did it on his own.
But she spoiled it for any other woman. He is so scarred from her. But I am praying and hoping that he will soon get over that fear of being treated like that again.
I have to laugh when I come on here and hear the tactics that some of these women use to try to control a Cancer man. They don't realise that just because he is with them and is sticking it out for a while, it doesn't mean that he is happy. That was the case with my Cancer, he stayed with her for 6 years. Although he is still friends with her (which I respect) he doesn't forget how she treated him.
"He immediatly called me up, and asked me what i wanted.."
Listen girl this doesn't take a second thoguht... my guy is getting fat since I met him. I will call him up every morning and ask him if he wants breakfast... he will call me at anytime and ask for food. I will drop everything to get him what he wants no matter how far or how much it is putting me out of my way.
I know women who would look at this an be like "oh you doing too much, you the woman the man's suppose to be doing this... blah blah blah" I don't care, I love my man... what ever is needed will be done.
The way I look at it...I will be irreplacable... just like you... he will never forget me... God forbid we break up.
"Cancers seem to give up really quick and miss out on what is really intended to be theirs"
Uh uh...that scares me the most! but i used to not giving up so damn easy in my lie before..i wonder where did the old me gone??

lol what an interesting board.
Cancers suck at returning calls and are better with texts and email, but I dont hold it against them. And I think the infuriated response to it is a Taurus thing cuz it really used to BURN my cookies yanno.
Im really feeling the comment that it seems like Cancers give up too easily and miss out on what was intended for them.

wooooooow
Man if you are right its no wonder this guy is making me jump through so many rings for such an extended period of time. And yes Im generally impatient but for some reason he makes me want to stick around for that lovely softy inside the shell
