Do cancers hold on to one while moving to the next

So I've been seeing a cancer for almost a year all of a sudden he doesn't have time to see me like he used to though he will call me and answer my text I haven't seen him in almost two weeks! I ask him what's up he acts like nothing is eying he days he's just busy and working but he's always worked what's so different about now and why is my crab not giving me any time? I asked him to be honest but I'm getting more of the same! Would a cancer still communicate and hold on to one if he's moved on to another?

Sorry he acts like nothing is wrong days he's just busy ! Darn auto correct and fast typing don't mix

These are signs he's stringing you along while he solidifies something with someone else 😉

Thank you for that

Unfortunately he's stringing you along. He's seeing and texting you less without any explanation before you had to ask. If this man were hot to trot for you, he wouldn't want to risk losing you by changing his behavior pattern radically without checking in with you...work's a bear, I'm feeling really down now....whatever it is. He's not communicating and is not ready to end the relationship just yet. It definitely sounds like he's testing the waters for a new relationship. Do you want to hang around if that's the case.

I don't know that I think this is a Cancer thing. This was never my game. I've had 2 major relationships and tend to go on a 2 year hiatus before jumping in again. I think some people need, or think they need, to swing from one person to the next before they can let go. I've known peeps who did this. It hurts like hell if you're on the dumped side of the fence but try to keep the bigger picture in mind: if you two really were on the same page, this wouldn't have happened. On some level it just wasn't working out for him. We feel so hurt and betrayed and want no DEMAND an explanation from the ex. Explanations mean little at the end of the day. The big picture: it either works out or it doesn't. If a man isn't really into you, let him go because you deserve one who will love you and make your first in his heart. He really and truly isn't the only man you could find happiness with. You're just attached and it's hard to let go. Still, the handwriting is on the wall, it you would be coming from a position of strength to be the one to call it off.

Wow very deep and truth! We had a disagreement for the first time the other day about my past relationship with my daughters father which was 6 years ago! He finally started spending time with me again but he seems upset about the situation so I'm thinking that's why he disappeared for awhile

he might be going through something and not ready to talk about it. doesn't have to be that he is seeing someone else. when things go wrong in a cancer's life, they often get overwhelmed but yes definite worry with a change in behavior. if something is bothering him, he will either pull away completely or pull himself back together. the guy i am seeing did both, true he is taurus but he loves like a cancer. he had been a little cold and then not in touch for a while and then he also pulled away the last two weeks before he ended it. well we sort of mutually ended it because i wasn't happy either. but after he ended it and worked out his issues, he wanted to come back. we did get back together because there was no one else. his issues were about him, not me. and not if i fit in his life, but about how he fit in his own life. i was sure of what i wanted and he knew it. i didn't settle for less than what i wanted or deserved but my heart wanted him. still i stood my ground and put me first. when you get tired of waiting for him to give you answers, you might decide to cut him loose. he might just be counting on that so he doesn't have to face you. on the other hand, there are two sides to every story. it's been my experience that waiting it out and hanging on doesn't work. as my dad, a cancer sun sign said, a man will only do what he has to do.

A man will only do what he has to do yes you are absolutely correct . I don't want to give up on him cause I care so much and when it's good it's great I really think he has trust issues and me being who I am makes him feel a certain way! I'm a gemini and I'm in the music industry but I wish he would just trust me and stop assuming cause I'm around certain people I'm up to no good cause all I want is him

Were there any patterns to his withdrawal periods or was this just all of a sudden after a whole year of dating and he's gone cold? Mine has been pulling back since day one. First it was for 3 days, then weeks, and now I think he is going for a record of a month.

He pulls back when we disagree. He pulls back when we do agree that things are going great.

I used to send flirty texts knowing I'd be getting nothing back for weeks on end and now it is exhausting. Im busy being a gemini and so I just go cold too. I know I can get detached so easily from this and walk away but I can't because I actually want to make it work.

How do you deal with the usual communication issues with a Cancer being a Gemini? And was there ever a pattern in his behavior to pull away?

Yeah he does do the push and the pull sometimes lacking in communication but is always see him every week mostly once or twice ! We both have extremely bust schedules but we were making it work and before this last pull away we were seeing each other more than ever and things were great! Then all of a sudden the bs and I kind of think its like he wants to be close up me but he doesn't trust it cause he doesn't trust me even though I've been loyal to him and reassure him he is all I want ! Yes the gemini in me is screaming communicate with me and cause I'm so attached and invested in him I don't want to let go! People say gemini are fickle but if you get us to love you we are like a pit bull with a bone we never want to let you go! And I love him! Everyone has a limit though at some point he's gonna have to give his all like I'm striving to do with him!
