Is it just me or are cancerians way too underestimated?I've read some topics on this forum, where cancers have been constantly criticised(did i spell that right?) of not being able to "hear the truth about themselves", to be very weak emotionally, extremely sensitive, depressive towards criticism, and to mention something more recent: can't handle scorpio ppl's extreme emotions, etc..:S Well if that's true, then why the hell can't I relate to any of that?(And yes, I'm a cancerian) I am extremely sensitive, yes...but, I can handle ALOT of emotional pressure, and I don't fit to any of those descriptions of cancer that say "cancerians break down after too much emotional stress" whatever... Recently my ******** was going through alot of pain, and was having moodswings, crying, yelling, temper-tantrums etc etc...it was like an emotional roller-coaster, which lasted for about 3 years! But I helped that person, I listened to that person, gave him/her advice, and did everything in my power to help him/her move on, and never once did I fit to that myth about cancerians, of not being able to handle too much emotions as it breaks them down:S... Seriously, would the usual cancerian be able to handle temper-tantrums, crying, yelling, cursing etc for 3 whole years, without once breaking down like a sissy? IP: Logged |

I dated a cancer with a scorpio moon very recently. He one day just stop being nice to me and acted like a child. He wouldn't open up and discuss what was bothering him. He just acted very moody then when I would confront him, he would tell ME to relax. To this day I really don't know what I did to get such a cruel reaction out of him. He was a very nice sensitive guy until then. I was reading that cancers hide in their shell and won't come out until they're ready. Do you also do that?IP: Logged |

"cancers hide in their shell and won't come out until they're ready"This statement could have several meanings..what exactly do you mean? Do you mean emotionally or what? If that's what you meant, then my answer is no...I show my real emotions, and I hate that moodswing/hide emotions thing...sometimes there might be issues that I don't tell people about, but I always have the intention of showing them some time or another, and when I do, I don't do it in a rude way, I do it in a way so people will understand.

Cancers are sweethearts. When my turtle died and I was sad my other friends said awww im sorry. My other cancer friend said sorry like 5,000 times. Only they can understand how hurt I would be.IP: Logged |

I love cancers...they can be very funny! I think linda says that they have a great sense of humour. My housemate is a cancer, very sensitive but uses humour as a way if getting over being sad. I think they are great!!IP: Logged |

thosa dont take any of the bashing personally. NO sign has had all its praises sung here ont his forum, so far as I can remember, without being bashed, because naturally some of us get along with certain signs and dont get along with others, and we express that. there is a mix of fire/air and water/earth people here and thus we tend to express what we dont understand totally about other signs. if you're feeling attacked by the cancer thing, i remember there was once this horrid thread about Pisces men (LOL). personally I have bad experiences with pisces men too and it was just funny but sad at the same time to see how many people ranted about them. a priceless thread honestly. Im a Gem and see Gems mentioned in EVERY thread. "Whos your soft spot?" --tons of Gem mention "Whos your most hated" --tons of Gem mention --"Whos most likely to cheat on you" -- most Gem mention and on and on I dont care because I know that if we Gems find someone we truly understand they can fulfill all our weaknesses and complete us. And get rid of our tendencies to do bad stuff...whatever that may be! I have a love-hate relation with Cancers. I love talking to Cancer women and men but cannot have any close relationship with Cancer men as I find them too needy, immature, etc. Anyhow no offense just my personal experience ok? IP: Logged |

SG said:"thosa dont take any of the bashing personally." Lol...actually I'm not taking this 100% personally(might be the question/exclamationmarks that make me seem so personally offended lol) No its not that I'm taking the bashing personally, but I just find it kind of odd that people keep mentioning how cancerians cant handle too much emotional pressure, because as a cancerian myself I have never experienced this:S...I'm not offended, I just don't find any sense in these remarks.  "NO sign has had all its praises sung here on this forum, so far as I can remember, without being bashed, because naturally some of us get along with certain signs and dont get along with others, and we express that. there is a mix of fire/air and water/earth people here and thus we tend to express what we dont understand totally about other signs." I agree. I have a love-hate relation with Cancers.

gems and cancers will always attract as friends. As a couple I think both there mood swings will cause trouble. Plus cancers are sensitive and needy. Since I am a gemini/cancer the neediness doesn't bother me at all because I am like that also.

My first boyfriend was one and we were too young, but he was funny and smart, and my Brother-in-law is one, he is also funny, smart and btw they are all goodlooking people too! just thought I'd throw that in as well!

I think this board is just dominated by more outspoken signs, and cancer often tends to be quite introverted and shy.....thats why cancers seem to get tread on...so many posters are aquarians and sadgies and leos who aren't that fond of cancerIP: Logged |

I think people tend to focus more on negative things (in everything really!) rather than postive.....example: People would rather call up a store about an employee to complain about them rather than call up and give a compliment about a certain employeeHave a blessed night!! IP: Logged |

BR I would say not necessarily so theres the Virgos (so many of them--check out all the Virgo threads and the 'let us in ur bedroom thread' lol), not to mention Capricorns and TAUREANS (they're all over the place here). I'm pretty sure that Natasha (sthenri) and maya-v are taureans and they're pretty big posters on the site. I think Leylalefay before was Cancer also, she was a big poster, and there are lots of Scorps. IP: Logged |

Also I may add to the last post that it may appear that there are way too many Air/Fire signs coz we tend to put our sun/moon/asc sign in our username (Leosweetheart, lionseye, Gemininymph etc.) but a TON of the people with non-astro related names are earth/water signs that should 'traditionally' think highly of Cancerians.

Secret Garden quote: people with non-astro related names are earth/water signs
Come to think of it, you seem to be on something. Probably Earth/Water being naturall more reserved? Spekong of Cancers...
I just quote part of what I posted not so long ago.
I love Cancers - their creativity, sensitivity, wonderful wacky sense of humour and work ethics. I got wonderfully along with most Cancer women I've met - colleagues and friends. We understand each other, enjoy each other's company, etc.

hy thosa , dont be unnecessarily upset abt wat ever has been writteen abt us cancers , its all abt perception, cancers seem to be very simple ppl but let me tell u they are quite complex as for being emotionally weak , i dont think they that way ,let me tell u abt myself ,its been almost 15 yrs that i havew wept and irecently lost out on two things that are quite dear to us cancers - someone whom i wanted to marry and big part of my investemt and here i m writting a reply! so there ______ __________ they arre pure optimistic ppl , they can easily diffrenciate between profeesional and personal so the question itself stands naked by the way check ot the thread cancerian man okIP: Logged |
