Last night, I spent most of the evening talking with this really lovely Cancer guy who was completely prepared to put up with all my ramblings, actually listened, giggled, joked.... he was really endearing! So.. he happens to be an ok chef and had to leave early to pick his mother up, but unbelievably I actually found myself seeing this as sweet too! I am suprised...

... I wasn't coming onto him... I think.. but I can't stop thinking about how lovely he is. Actually, it's funny I should keep using the word 'lovely', I think his ascendant's in Libra.
However, he is unbelievably shy, but what was really cool was that once we started talking to him, he would carry on the converstaion.

Has anyone else found Cancers to be not what you thought inside? And why can't I god damn stop thinking how lovely he is???

..... I'm also not too sure I could deal with it if, now, after I think I know this guy enough to count as a friend, he would suddenly loose interest in me. Inconsistency bugs the hell outta me. Infact, recently, this had been happening with someone else I 'know' (sort of) but I think I've figured it's actually me who acts differently each time I talk to this person!

The Cancer guy seems reasonably steady and consistent though. Or you'd think... I guess. Oh, I really hope this doesn't happen. I have a close friend with a Cancer Ascendant, and so I have to put up with it enough with her when occaisionally she's a bit offish. Usually, it's not me, but her moodiness really gets to me as I'm incredibly paranoid.

have you ever gone to a cancers home? it is usually 10-15 years dated. a cancer guy will let his grandma decorate his apartment. *think doilees and pink silk roses in a vase with little hand painted bunny-rabbits* i swear this is a real apartment!!!

I have this annoying Cancer uncle who always has to tell me how he thinks I look whenever I meet him. (For example, "Oh you've gained weight!" or "Highlights don't look good on you. Not natural"). Im always like ok....who the eff asked you (thinking this not saying it of course) lol.

And hes so domestic and quaint, even more so than his Taurus wife, which is a little alarming. He likes to wear aprons and cook stuff and gets on his wifes nerves when he thinks she hasnt cooked stuff right.

He is quite traditional, conservative (which I would consider myself too, but do understand he brings a whole other meaning to these words), maybe the word I'm looking for is that he is such a bubble boy, or bubble man I should say, or maybe bubble uncle? As in he seems totally sheltered, the cry baby home-oriented type of men.

Anyways no hard feelings against cancers, I love the gals, wonderful women they are, beautiful and wonderful communicators. Even Cancer men can be delightful surprises--I met one who was really deliciously handsome and well mannered, not to mention he was nice and all that, but no chemistry there. Somehow its jus that one Cancer uncle that bugs the cr@p outta me.

I do value Cancer's opinion, even if i didn't ask. The cancer dude I know said something similar about my highlights. He said he liked me better as a brunette. At least I can rely on his honesty.

I've had four cancer men in my life.

I went on a blind lunch date with Cancerian Number 1 and omg, I don't even know where to start. He was such a sweet man but so in the 80's. At lunch he was telling me about his five-year plan for his hobby business (a golf driving-range). After lunch he took me to see his golf driving-range. Then he took me to his house to show me the five-year plan. There was golf stuff all over the place (in amongst his doileys). On his mantle was a double-decker rack of different coloured golf balls. Yes, I definitely felt as though I stepped back into the 80's. I'm sure his mother helped him decorate.

I met a Cancerian Number 2 on a dating web site and instantly felt a pull toward him. A couple of months later, we met and there was no doubt in my mind, he is a soul mate. Unfortunately, he was sleeping (I posted a thread about him the soul section on this forum). Anyhow, we had so many synchronicities - names, dates etc. He has the same first name and was born on exactly the same day and year as one of my brother-in-laws (Cancer Number 3). Our mothers shared the same birthday. Speaking of mothers, Cancer Number 2 absolutely loathed his. That's what I find with Cancerian men. They either love or loathe their mother. There is no in-between. Cancer Number 3 loved his mother and doted on her.

I was quite disturbed by the way Cancer Number 2 spoke about his mother because I projected myself forward to another 20 years or so, and saw my Cancerian son (Cancer Number 4) talking about me.

Hmm,

Hey, I was just wondering- are Cancer guys the types to have lots of acquaintences? ie. The types to make you think like you've made a connection and that they really like you but you mean nothing more to them than any other person?

They are quite shy sometimes, have to be coaxed out of their shell, LOL!
