I kept meaning to respond to you, but scattered Aquarian thoughts run through my head and I can never quite communcate them clearly.

I can see the clingy thing-all of the cancers I've ever dated (3 of whom were all born on July 7) fell into the routine of calling every day, a couple of times a day. and they're definitely the best at cuddling in bed...but who wants to cuddle when you're so mad at their ever-changing moods!

One of those Cancers had an Aries Moon and Leo Rising (he loved acting-don't all Leo Risings?) and he just seemed so fiery and egocentric (one amazing lover), but he'd surprise me with these odd moments of sensitivity and...crying even! he would put on an act of the tough guy who couldn't be emotional (major parent issues-it even shows in his chart). but he would cry if i teased him and ended up telling me i was too unemotional.

ANd Carlo....what are you doing asking random kids on the street what their signs are? How in the world did that conversation go?

So, on Tuesday, my friend and I took lunch togtehr and 30 minutes after coming back to the office, the Cancer calls me (I made it go straight to voicemail) and he leaves a message saying he "just saw me outside by the train station" and described exactly what I was wearing. Mind you this is the 1st time he's called me in over a month b/c he "lost" my number when we ended things, even though he insisted on being my friend. That's just a little creepy. I mean, shouldn't he just say hello if he sees me on the street (he was walking to the train)? Odd.

I'm not saying they're all immature, just this one.

So I just wanted to add another disturbing Cancer man story.

Lots of tenderness, lots of affection, lots of accepting the mood swings and trying not to snap back...it's like winning an abused animal's trust and affection.

that's a funny story. it sounds like for him, being a voyeur is being a friend!

just joking.

he is teasing you, that's for sure

i once had a very close friend who was a taurus rising with a scorpio moon. he had very, very deep affections for a woman and attempted to court and woo her. the woman did not respond to him her disinterest, but rather teased him cruelly. my friend was undaunted by this rebuff and was obsessed with penetrating into her psyche to get back at her, and perhaps create another chance.

he started becoming friends with her friends, joined organizations she joined, and subtlely discussed things about her on the sly with other people to gain insight. the most far-reaching tactic that he ever let me in on, was going online and creating personalities to communicate with both the woman and her brother.

how is that for obsession?

This' guy's definitely not obsessed, but he does act very snippy at times, gets annoying and doesn't really take a hint. Of course, I know that's no excuse, people shouldn't hint around and I should be forthright, but I only do that when I get really angry. :-)

Fajita...funny! It's never too late to kvetch if you need to. What did you find out on astro.com?

Yea, I like that I can edit my posts

how are things with that cancer guy?

I just wanted to share another Cancer male story...

Last night, my friend's husband introduced me to one of his friends, a Cancer (with a Sag moon). A friend of mine from overseas was visiting and he came with me to the party. I was trying to have conversations with my friend and the Cancer guy was basically ignoring that fact and kept trying to engage me in conversations of his own. When I said I would be right back to retrieve a drink, he became nervous and asked if I was going to continue the game (we were playing pool). He kept asking me if he could ask me more questions and he was all too concerned with what my hobbies are and my home life (home is the key word, I guess) and with my views on how I am in relationships, etc....finally I asked him his birthdate and he said "July 16. I'm a Cancer." I said "YES, you are."

As soon as he told me his birthdate, I knew the whole thing was futile. But I like making new friends nonetheless.
