cancer sun and cancer venus male.

I.e: use other girls to trigger jealousy in a girl he likes?

-possibly from fear of rejection etc

im a pisces sun and venus aries, and have done this a thousand times
That still goes on.
If they are immature they probably do it. I never did that though, even when I was a baby crab. It's just stupid.
I am a cancer female and have done this out of fear of rejection, but not to make the other one jealous. I was more afraid of the rejection and letting my feelings be known. Not really doing anything with the other guys besides chatting or light flirting.
I did it with my guy...he was a crab too...he used to get jealous...and i had entertainmnt Tongue
Crab girls and their damn games....
Can't speak for others, but i never want to make crush jealous, waste of time, unless it's unintentional, talk with a person, it's allright to be a little jelous but if someone's doing it for purpose that just playin wrong. smile
Playing games with another person's emotions is petty/childish, and comes across as spiteful.

Please remember that when a Crab girl does shit like this to a well-centered man, it makes the man want nothing to do with her.

Now I have to ask...

When you Crabs play the jealousy card with your crushes, what exactly are you trying to do?

Are you expecting us to get mad and say/do something?

???

Cancer female here and although I've never done this (it's really immature imo), I assume others do it to see the reaction and judge whether their crush actually likes them back based off of this. It could well be out of insecurity, but that's just my guess smile
Lol funny you ask this! I don't usually play the jealous card on purpose. It usually comes natural and it's not my fault if a guy is checking me out somewhere or tries to talk to me while my date is in the bathroom.

However! Yesterday I sent this guy I'm dating a huds up display because I thought it was very cool. His first question was who's car is that? Then, is that a mustang? I responded, it's a corvette. He asks me, did you get a new car? ? I said, nope, but I'd like to buy one like this!!

Yes I avoided his question to make him a little jealous, but common. I've told him at least twice about my uncles vette. Pay attention! lol
I'm a cancer btw ?

So what happens if the crush does like you, but your behavior ends up hurting them and they go away?

Did you really accomplish anything positive by acting like that?

You say "you" as if you're referring to me, but like I said i've never done that personally myself smile I hold the same view as you. It accomplishes nothing!

The crush should well and truly leave if someone is playing those games, because it indicates the Cancer probably isn't emotionally mature enough to handle a relationship if one were to begin anyway.

Okay, thank you.

I was hoping you would say something like that.

We all have our crushes and people that we want to be with.

However, this concept of playing jealousy games seems to do more harm than good, especially if we are on the receiving end of the behavior.

I know that I would not do something to hurt my crush, that is for sure.

Cancer energy is indirect. Like the crab that side steps to get where it needs to be, we do the same. This can manifest itself as passive aggressiveness. This cancer guy is being passive aggressive by trying to make you jealous. To him it's easier than coming right out and saying "I like you".
Wait, so what you are saying is...

Crabs do things that have the serious potential to hurt someone....

....In order to demonstrate that they like the person?

Some do. It's really counterproductive isn't it.

Yes, and irritating.

I understand now that some Crabs prefer to do messed up things to people in order to show that they like that person.

Well kinda. It's more to see if the other person likes them before they confess their feelings, like dipping a toe in the water to check the temperature. Sometimes people with cancer energy can get so wrapped up with their own feelings that they forget other people have feelings too. I know it's something I had to work on.

So if a Crab girl rubs another guy in your face, what is the best reaction to that shit?

Hopefully walking away is the correct answer, as it is the most peaceful one.

Games are lame.
