The only thing he constantly complained about in me was that I would get too jealous. He was very flirty and admitted it. So with that in mind, I'm happy we're not together because it secretly drove me crazy. I even had a girl at a party warn me to watch out for his flirty tendencies!!
I showed him love the best way I knew. Yes I was and still am not perfect. Also I'm in my early 20's so I don't have a ton of experience in love. Mistakes are meant to be made. But I never made him feel I didn't love him. I made sure of it. He never complained about that either. He wasn't lacking.
He lost his job and was unemployed for a month. He hid that from me for a while. Then when I realized he was very low on funds, I bought him groceries and lent him some money. He was too shy to ask for it, but I sensed it and he said he was really grateful. He said it had been a rough couple of months for him but I was patient with him and he was thankful for that.
He tells me he loves me... but girlfriend is too strong of a word? He was a jerk, plain and simple.
The love from a Scorpio woman is deep and a lot of people can't handle it.
This Cancer guy was so persistent and sweet in the beginning. Then came the rollercoaster.
Finally, we decide to end it amicably and go our separate ways, with hopes of friendship in the future.
Two days later I find a letter under my apartment door from him, saying he doesn't want to give up and that he was trying so hard to be monogamous after not being for so long but he knows that this is what he needs. He also outlined all the things he loves about me and how I challenge him, am patient with him and help him grow and how he wants to do that for me. He tells me he loves me.
So I take him back. All is well.
Then he's helping me move. As we're loading my couch onto the truck, I cheese and say "you have a strong girlfriend, huh?"
He says "What girlfriend?"
DUMBFOUNDED.
I say what am I just another girl? He says no you're special but girlfriend is a strong word.
I decide not to make a huge fuss and finish moving. I make a mental note to discuss later. After we're done, I tell him I want to treat him to margaritas for helping me. He keeps poking me on the walk there (immature I know) and when I go to give him a playful shove, I accidentally swipe him in the eye. He BLOWS up and I apologize profusely> He says he thinks I did it on purpose and then said "I would knock you out right now if I could'' He tries to clarify he means if I were a guy.
So of course it's completely over now.
I honestly have never met someone so bipolar.
Is this normal Cancer behavior?!
I'm a Scorpio so I thought this would work..
He's a Cancer sun and moon, with Taurus venus an Aries mars.
However I believe it is absolutely normal to worry what society and others think of you.
At our core, humans are tribal.
So some consideration of what others think is necessary to advance in life.
It can be a bit of a struggle to not lose your own identity in the process.
Here's an excerpt:
"My efforts yielded many friends and filled my calendar with fulfilling activities. I went on Internet dates, speed dates and blind dates. I had great hair and a confident smile. But I was still alone. And in the dark of Saturday night, I still asked myself, ???What??s wrong with me???
Mark and I dated for a month before I revealed my shoddy relationship r?sum?. When I did, he shrugged. ???Lucky for me,?? he said, ???all those other guys were idiots.??
And that was it. To Mark, I was not a problem to solve, a puzzle that needed working out. I was the girl he was falling in love with, just as I was falling in love with him.
Six years later, this past June, he and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary. My close friends ??? the ones with whom I had shared many impromptu therapy sessions ??? had come to the wedding in a small Brooklyn park. And so had their husbands.
Did we find love because we grew up, got real and worked through our issues? No. We just found the right guys. We found men who love us even though we??re still cranky and neurotic, haven??t got our careers together, and sometimes talk too loudly, drink too much and swear at the television news. We have gray hairs and unfashionable clothes and bad attitudes. They love us, anyway.
What??s wrong with me? Plenty. But that was never the point."
husband that his brother was in jail and then I just started crying. I only want the best for him in life and I want him to be happy. But I also have to take care of myself and stop playing games like I just see him as a friend who I have sex with.
This is really hard for me though.. .on some websites I'm Gemini moon, on others.. Cancer :/
And then now... I keep nagging him about how he??s been different for like the past month. He just not the same. He acts like he doesn??t care. He said yes he??s scaled back because he knows one day I will find someone and I??ll just leave. And that it??s hard to just lose someone like that. So he said yeah, our aura has been off. Let??s just be like how you said back in November. I said I'm sorry but I don??t think that??s gonna work. I can??t be just strictly friends with you. He said maybe it wouldn't work out again and we'll end up having sex again. I said I just can't switch to friends and that it's going to take me some time. He said ok I??l leave you to contact me then. Even though I complained about him a lot it was because I was so frustrated and hurt. Hurt that I liked someone so much who wouldn??t go out on a limb for me. How the hell could of gone out on a limb for him? When many times he??s said he??s not looking for anything serious. It doesn??t matter if he said he loves talking to me, hanging out and that the sex is great. He said there are feelings in it and that we have chemistry. YET he said he??s not looking for anything serious.
Any insight on this would be great. Because even though it seems unhealthy on the outside, which it is, I deeply feel that I have a huge hole in my life right now. I don't know whether to never contact him again or not. This sucks.
PS He's Aries Sun, Capricorn Moon, Aqua Venus & Mars
