first experience? i tend to stay away from immature cancers as friends and lovers. they tend to pull me back into old habits where i put their needs before mine. probably due to my s. node being in cancer.IP: Logged |

They can make good friends but for romance I stay away.. they can be a turn off for me. The few experiences I have had with them they tend to be clingy and constantly need reassurance. One Cancer in particular, I noticed he liked things to be sugar coated and he would sugar coat things. I hate sugar coating it's insulting to my nature people who try to sugar coat things when I can very well see what they're doing annoys me to be frank. Cancerians are for some but certainly not for me. There will be tears. Also I like my space and solitude at times this is hardly possible with Cancers I have experienced even as friends. They do mean well but I just don't find the men attractive. Aries, Scorpio, Capricorn, Taurus are more my cuppa tea. IP: Logged |

Im0, all 3 water signs are clingy. I can't stand those with a water stellium or a water m0on in a r0mantic partnership. They're c0ol as friends but anything m0re is a strict NO. They text you about hundred times a day, get ann0yed and insecure if you reply late or d0n't reply at all for legitimate reas0ns, keep calling... Last week, this cancer asked me, 'did you wish me on my birthday? No! Why?' jawdrop! She had a wounded expressi0n on her face. My experience with a pisces m0oner was worse. Scorpios are fine. Better than the 2.IP: Logged |

I have a tendency to emotionally connect and baby Cancer people, but Pisces people even worse. I don't see them ALL as clingy but, I definitely sense that need for frequent verbal and physical, emotional contact and I end up very guilty if I don't give that to them, even in friendships. Most Cancer relationships I've had, I've really been able to pull a lot out of the person and they've unburdened themselves to me quite a lot without me asking. I have a Scorpio stellium but... as an Air sign predominantly it can be a little much for me to process it all. It doesn't mean I don't emotionally like them or care for them, but it can be overwhelming sometimes, that's all. I've yet to be romantically involved with a Cancer since, we usually have a very intense emotional dependency going on at some point or another. I doubt my best lovers will be Cancer Suns. I don't just blame Cancer, I blame myself too. I can be far too empathetic and it's also my fault. IP: Logged |

That's just cray cray. I think that's just called being clueless and insensitive to social cues? Also just being plain insensitive. I mean come on, 10 times in one day? Or even 2 times in one day is annoying for me.Hmm..interesting, i'm a cancer, and the only thing that bothers me is when someone takes a whole day to reply to a message when i know that the notification gets sent to their phone, and come on, we know everyone has their phone glued to their face, looking at text messages and facebook. It also bothers me when someone takes over 10 minutes to reply in a text convo. I just dont have the attention span to remember to go back to my phone when ive already set it down and started to do something else, and its annoying, i forget what we're talking about lose motivation to reply and its annoying. I would prefer it go like an instant messenger conversation. I would probably mention it to someone maximum twice if they take over a day to respond to anything i send them, and then i would just ignore their messages. Why should i put up with that when i know the notification is going to your phone, yet you say "oh i'll answer back when i feel like it" and i see you posting other things in other places/chatting with other people. No, sorry. If you're an acquaintance that's fine, i do that to acquaintances all the time, but if ur a best friend, hell no. You better answer my messages right away. Also, i would never reproach someone about forgetting about my birthday. I forget other people's all the time. If it weren't for facebook i wouldnt remember, and if it werent for school everyday i wouldnt know what day it was. ------------------ "Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage." - Lao Tzu $3.50 ebay compatibility readings | testimonials | Past readings IP: Logged |

But texting is so that people can answer at their leisure. Most of the time people are doing other things and not just staring at their phones waiting for people to text them. If you want a quick answer, just CALL THEM. I hate texting and instant messaging. When I'm on the internet, I'm usually doing things like, I don't know, LOOKING AT WEBSITES, and I HATE it when people try to talk to me and then say "OMG WHY AREN'T YOU ANSWERING!!!!!" I don't even turn on chat on Facebook anymore because it got way too annoying. I don't go on the internt to talk to people. IP: Logged |

on FB chat u can just say hey im kind of busy right now, i'll ttyl. thats what i do. or if u dont go on the internet to chat with people, then turning off fb chat is a feature that was made for ppl like u, and u are using it the right way somebody answering at their leisure means ill have to keep checking back on my phone and that is tiring. also it's annoying when ur excited to talk to them and u want the conversation to go faster.

I like to think of Cancers as the Lunar (positive expression) or the Crab (negative expression).The Crab wants all of the normal cancer traits all to themselves, compassion, nurturing, comfort etc. Whereas the Lunar is fulfilled by giving those things out to others. The Crab tries to hide its feelings, and becomes moody and clingy. Sort of "Hoarding" everything with their crab claws . Crab cancers can also be surprisingly mean as they try to pretend like they have no feeling and they close their "shell". Sometimes out to hurt others in the way they feel they have been hurt. The Lunar on the other hand shines like a full moon, with their feelings out there for everyone to see. They cry a lot and let their feelings flow. They are the first person to come hug you and comfort you and ask you if you are ok. They will go out of their way to make sure everyone feels comfortable and loved, especially FAMILY! The Lunar lives a much harder but more fulfilling life IMO, as they confront their feelings more which is hard for Cancer to do. Being more receptive as a person also makes them more susceptible. If they can handle the ups and downs they will be more open and there will be more possibilities for positive experience. I have met a certain amount of Crabs, and a few Lunars. I haven't dated any yet, but I would like to date a Lunar as I am quite partial to Cancers . Probably my Leo Sun, Scorpio Moon probably helps as well .

I'm not clingy, Im a loner. I have close friends but the most we see eachother is 2 times a month, and there the ones that always call when they want to hang out. I prefer to be in my own little bubble. ------------------ Scorpio sun, Pisces moon, and Pisces rising IP: Logged |

I am Cancer sun, I am not clingy either. I fit more of the loner category as well, I don't even turn on my fb chat, I always appear offline. I think we need to take into consideration the difference between not only Cancer Sun and Moon signs but the expression of those signs in different genders. Men express their Cancer Sun, Moon, Asc and Venus signs much differently than Women. Also we should take into account the maturity level of Cancer placements, I think that Cancer placement men once matured can probably be some of the sweetest kind of men for some women. IP: Logged |

I'm the same way. It annoys me. It annoys me more if I'm in a romantic r/s and the guy is online on IM and STILL doesn't respond. Ironically they get ****** when I do the same. It's like this... Me: Hey, how was your day? Guy: Good, what abt you? Me: blah blah blah. Guy: blah blah Me: So what's up? Guy: (30mins later.) Nm, so want to watch a movie or someting? By this time I'm gone. Guy: I guess you're gone, gn. After a couple hours... Me: Hey Guy: Hey! I missed you. Me: Ok. So.... Guy: So... Me: Anyway.. Guy: Yeah? Me: Nothing Guy: Are you mad at me? Me: Why did you take so long? Guy: I did? Me: ... Now when I'm genuinely busy.....
Guy: Hey how was your day? Me: Good and yours? Guy: blah blah blah Me: blah blah Guy: So what's up? (I'm busy multitasking and away for at the most 10-15 mins.) Guy: Hello? Guy: Are you there? Guy: I guess you're talking to your "friends". I'll let you go then. Me: Hey no, I was working on this and that. Guy: Ok...Are you talking to someone? Are you talking to any guys? Why did you take so long to reply? IP: Logged |

"Actually" clingy? Like, you just discovered this? I'm a fire sun but all my other personal planets are in water. I vibe well with clingyness and I love almost all Cancer placements (Cancer mars I am always attracted to but in practice it doesn't do much for me). I love to be needed and wanted. Being a Saggi sun, I do occasionally need time alone and bounce from clique to clique of friends, but none of my Cancer-influenced friends have seemed to mind too, too much after years of this. My boyfriend has a Cancer moon and he's a bit too clingy and sensitive if I don't tell him about practically everything that happens in a day (his moon falls in my sixth) or invite him places that aren't even gonna be fun to him and I know he won't even go, he just wants to be invited (this really annoys me, so I've started making jokes about it: "well i would invite you, but i know you'll feel like killing yourself or be bored to tears, etc. etc., and it seems to be working fine); and he's a little too sensitive to my blunt nature from time to time, other times he loves it because he's the same way (also a Sag sun).

From what I'm reading I'm an overly emotional and clingy cancer ascendant. I guess I channel the more negative/immature cancer ascendant vibes. I don't text people 10 times a day with them not answering. But it infuriates me when people never reply and just don't make an effort to get back to you and yet you see them chatting, commenting and all. It really just screams "I don't care about you" "You annoy me" It's as if they were walking all over me. Okay I don't get like this with acquaintance but still I find it extremely rude. I don't consider myself outwardly clingy in that I won't harass someone with mails and phone calls and all but I guess I am clingy in that I have a hard time letting go of people emotionally. Now for birthdays , I used to not care, but that was because I was making plenty of excuses like they don't have the time, the don't remember and all (i'm born at the end of the year during the Christmas vacation so people do have a lot on their plate already) But last year, it just hit me. Why didn't I have the right to at least be wished an "happy birthday" from very good friends of me whom I've known for years , especially when I always wish theirs !! It truly annoyed me. You don't expect everyone to wish you a happy birthday but when you've known someone for years and you see them on facebook, and it's written that it's your birthday and they don't bother, well what would you think?

Oh ok sweetness lol I noticed cancers aren't clingy if you're honest with them about how much space u need from the get-go... I'll say straight up I want alone time & usually it's understood, if I don't text back right away it's all good That's my experience anyway...IP: Logged |

On 1-10 tick scale,Cancers are at least 7. That said,well connected Moon in synastry,IC ruler,and H4 overlays can create the same feeling,if you have in mind the womb archetype,the satisfied needs,security you can see why they persist/act so fiercely. (very cardinal)IP: Logged |

Yeah he didn't text 10 times.. but more like 2 or 3 times. I initially said im not interested in him but he kept saying i should try him out etc etc.He seemed very immature. I wouldnt' answer to his texts and he would go on.. like "how is your day" "i'm near your house" etc and I'd just ignore..after ignoring and saying to f off nicely he would text AGAIN like nothing happened like i didn't say f off and to leave me alone.. i would get "hi how was your day?" WTF.. I told him to please stop messaging me that didn't do it. He kept saying "why do you hate me ?" I told him again im not interested and then he didn't get it. then i just blocked him. He has issues.. i think its his cancer traits mixed with some kind of mental illness. If someone says you are not interested you LET GO. I've had this happen a few times before... one was a scoprio moon.. another also watery person..I have never had this happen with someone who has either a air sun/moon or fire sun/moon. I 'm a leo sun and moon. You sound less like a cancer and more like a leo. Leo's demand certain kind of treatment.. I'm the same way. if your my best friend you better act like one!! IP: Logged | |
