I've been talking to this leo (I'm a cancer) and he is just to overly affectionate and compliments me every minute. Major turn off for me I felt like vomiting with how overly expressive he is.. Is this how they usually are or should I be careful?
Are Leo men sweet talkers?

Why would compliments and affection make a person want to vomit? Do you have daddy issues?
I am going to put a gate at the entrance to the Den. We are going to have to take turns watching it.

she has a right to be concerned, this could all be game. how genuine can someone be if they're always vomiting sweet nothings...get REALclick to expand
Very genuine and the only way to know if it is a game is to play.
What can a bunch of E-strangers tell her...no he is lying, run for the hills, get out now, the sky is falling, the sky is falling....and people wonder why they are single. Stop looking for something to be wrong. My goodness.
Lastly, being careful when entering into a new relationship is common sense, is it not?
Crab caution meets the Lion charge.
Leo's are expressive, Cancers are reserved. He could be trying to draw you out of your shell. If you are overly reserved, this could ignite his need to draw you out. Thereby him being "overly" expressive with compliments and affection. He probably feels you need this. Or he is trying to draw out in you what he himself needs. Cancers like attention but we don't like nor need THAT much. It embarrasses us, puts our shy nature in the spotlight. But if you are going to pursue a relationship with a Leo, you have to get used to being in the spotlight.
Ask yourself:
Are you shy or reserved with him?
Another theory, my experience with single unattached Leo males is that they are not excessive with affection nor compliments. But they will say something positive to you and about you. They try to protect their ego so they will not be THAT excessive.
Now the married and committed Leo males on the hunt are a different story. They do what you described. Trying to win you over with no concern for their ego because if it doesn't work out, they still have a woman at home.
Recap:
Option A: He is trying to draw you out of your shell or
Option B: He is flirting and wants another piece of tail on the side.
Can you post your charts please?

Why are you asking should you be careful? why are you asking anything? His being nice to you makes you puke, so just don't deal with him anymore - where's the problem?

Oh ffs, he's not the one vomiting she is, the only question she should be asking is where's my bucket. Not this stupid question. Right to be concerned... smh... Concerned about herself what she should be - concerned about even asking what bunch of randomers on the internet think she should do.

lol cancer chicks always love the assholes. i'm beautiful, no please call me ugly.
Hahaha yes! It's not that I don't like to get complimented its just that its excessive and I'm just not used to it and you know how cancers are we always have our guards up so if you keep repeating yourself its going to sound fake and that is why i was concerned.

This is exactly right! He rushes things way to fast and I just want to take it slow. I feel like I need to take my time and really figure things out while on the other hand he just jumps into things blindly and he even told me he feels like I have a wall up most of the time so maybe he is trying to get the wall down who knows.. "Cancers like attention but we don't like nor need THAT much. It embarrasses us, puts our shy nature in the spotlight. But if you are going to pursue a relationship with a Leo, you have to get used to being in the spotlight." Yes this is also true! I honestly don't know if I can get used to his excessive compliments I'll have to tell him to tone it down a little maybe he will listen.

Lol I guess you or celticlioness never had suspicions on someones behavior before? I have never dealt with guys who are sweet talkers who call you beautiful every 5 minutes someone who wants to jump in a relationship with you after 2 weeks of getting to know the person. I think i have a right to be kind of weirded out.

Plus by me asking this i will know I can figure out if leos are genuinely this affectionate towards people they like and if they are then thats something I will have to work with him if I want the relationship to go further.
Call me crazy but I don't get how someone telling you that you are beautiful is suspicious.
Well, I wouldn't say that his behavior would make me wanna vomit, but I would definitely keep an eye or two out on him. Yes, sometimes when a man is overly affectionate and gives you too many compliments, it can come off like he's trying too hard and it's kind of cheesy. He could be a player but who knows. Only time can tell, but until then you can either just enjoy it or be honest with him and tell him it's kind of cheesy. Lol! Idk. I actually had a leo man do this to me before and it was hilarious. I couldn't really take him seriously but we weren't dating or anything. He was just a guy I saw around. And yes Leo men can definitely sweet talk the pants right off of you. So be cateful. You're a fellow water sign and we are great at reading through peoples shit. You got this! 🙂

Wondering if a man you have just begun dating and like and who is being overly generous with the compliments at the early stages might mean he is either playing you or being sincere is vastly different to wanting to vomit because he's paying you compliments.
Backpedalling much?
Anyway, yes tell him to tone it down, he will - but you won't last with him. He may end up joining the ranks of men who do start playing women because they feel that being nice gets them nowhere, and women must, after all, prefer the bastards - and women wonder why men feel like this!
Alternatively just accept the excessive compliments graciously because they won't last, nobody sustains the first flush of relationship highs for very long and you might just miss it all when it's gone.
