Please help... Is this Normal for Cancer or is he mentally ill?

My ex -cancer sun cancer moon cancer mercury Venus Gemini showed up to my parents wake. Had not seen him in months and he had broken up a 4 year relationship over email. I loved him and always thought we would work things out. We kept in touch and he would tell me to change my tastes and let's be together and have a family. I told him my taste is a part of who I am as a person. I can't change that even if I wanted to. But I am realistic if I can't afford something I will not go into debt for it. My financial stress came from parents doctor bills. At the wake he started crying that I wasn't at the house anymore. (Umm yeah we broke up why would I be? I wanted marriage and he wanted out) He later messaged me to thank me for letting him come even though he didn't deserve it- and after seeing me he was in a bad place- and asked me to just move in with him. I told him I can't make any decisions I appreciate friendship right now I'm burying my parent and I cant make any decisions. He told me to think about it and if I don't want us- he'll be my friend and there for me. 4 days later I called him and asked him to come by and help me with sorting some things as I was really having a hard time. He screamed "what don't you get I don't feel the same about you anymore" hung up on me and blocked me. He then went on a date that night (got a call from a friend.) I also found out (100% fact) that he has been seeing someone for a couple of months which he denied. Why would a cancer man ask an ex to move in with him to start a family- while seeing someone else-- only to act as if he never said it- especially knowing the person was already going through a hard time? Why put such an offer out there if it wasn't real?

Hang in there. Dont hang on to those who are filled with selfpity, manipulation and who place themselves above your extremely hard times. He doesn't understand the true hardships that we go through in life. He's occupied and is tunnelvisioned by his own emotions. He can't 'see' you. Drop him, like he has dropped you in the most vulnerable situations of life

Yup, my answer exactly. Egoistic to the bottom, unimaginable to me. In hard times people show their true colors, not when it's all blossoming and milk and honey all around. Get away, only hurt awaits you with that kind of man.

I'm sorry for your loss too, hope you get better soon.
I'm so sorry you're dealing with someone so emotionally selfish during this difficult time. I recommend you put the "whys" away and just cut contact. He can't be honest with you, so he doesn't deserve to be with you. It may be difficult but I would think after this it may be a bit easier. He is only concerned with himself and his own feelings obviously. So let him have them and you take care of yourself without the leach. You're body will thank you for conserving at least that energy you were spending on him. I truly wish you the best...
My guess:

Shit hit the fan with the other girl so that’s why he was seeking you out

Maybe the other girl found out, maybe she didn’t. But they got back together.

And that’s why he’s not talking to you anymore

My second guess:

It was the other girl who wrote that to you and blocked you
Something seems very "off" about this story.
Thank you all for your words of encouragement. I thought maybe I was missing something and this was a cancerian male trait. Cancer or not- he is just a bad person for my life and it's so evident- even though it hurts more. Blessings and peace to all
