He is an amazing guy and we are in love and couldn't be happier but ohhh boy these guys are sensitive. Any other Libras out there with the same problem— I feel I have to be super careful with the things I say, sometimes I am just being my honest, blunt self and he gets very offended and feels criticized...
Libra woman - Cancer male

I had two long term relationships with cancer men. I found them to be emotional vampires lol. The relationships were so draining! Love them as friends though but I dont like having to watch what I say. Everything I said was taken so personally and I was always made to look like the bad guy when I was just joking around
The funny thing is they LOVE your sarcastic sense of humor while dating, now everything I say is taken the wrong way....
my boyfriend is a cancer and i find your original post to be very accurate. he is very sensitive, takes everything to heart, and doesn't have a high tolerance for my cynicism and sense of humor. he takes great offense to everything and gets his feelings hurt pretty easily. this relationship has definitely been a test for the both of us.

For some reason I attract cancers like crazy. My most recent one was so damn intense it was draining. He took everything i said wrong. I felt like i was walking on egg shells. he analyzed everything I did to the point of me not even feeling like talking or doing anything because I was sick of him pointing things out about me. But when he was sweet and taking care of me it was amazing and the sex was absolutly amazing and he was so incredible sensual and i loved his eccentricities buuuuttt we didnt last long we just never seemed to be on the same wave length its unfortuneate but i could have never lived like that i would have been hurting his feelings all the time

The last one and this past one were similar.. like id hear them mumbling things.. and when id say what did you say?? theyd never tell me i know it was some rude shit though

Haha this is also my experience with Cancer men too! I always attract Cancer men think it must be my Cancer moon. They think I can get on a level with them emotionally then are shocked when my Libra comes out lol

Yea I now believe we aren't compatible. No more cancers for this girl.

I never dated a Cancer , my Mom is one and that's enough for me....bless her heart ! 😉

I never got along with Cancer males growing up. They were too damn sensitive for me. And I attracted them a lot (possibly my cancer moon)
I finally became friends with a Cancer guy and we clicked. It took time for us to warm up to one another, but once we did were definitely kindred spirits. We both come off a lot more serious than we actually are. Once we got to know each other we would talk sh*t, crack jokes, etc. all the time. We even dated for several months last year. but we were never a "official" couple so that may have played a part in him not being too sensitive. Maybe once their hearts are fully in, that's when the other side comes out. Also, he has an Aquarius moon. They're pretty good at hiding or detaching from feelings. *I'm surrounded by Aquarius mooners*
The most difficult thing for me was just the moodiness. And he was always stressed out...usually over work or money. I always tried to remain playful and lighthearted and it would help sometimes. And sometimes I just had to let him be.
