A Cancerian male
Whatever he may tell you, however much he may deny it, solicits and enjoys being babied and fussed …Cancer men will never admit it, but they love to be petted and babied by females… especially by his mom or his love.
He is normally gentle, considerate, and courteous, almost old-fashioned in his attitude toward women, especially toward his own woman. She is, in a way, his possession, and Crabs value their possessions highly.Nonetheless, he may demand a great deal more than he gives on occasion,expecting every sniffle and every cranky spell to be lullabyed and rocked away.
He is unduly sensitive, and quite easily hurt.He’s not nearly so thick-skinned.
If allowed to go too far when there is an argument he’ll retreat into his shell, and no compromise is possible. Crabs hang on tenaciously to arguments and to their own opinions
He is a gentleman, and will blossom under the slightest praise and encouragement, keep reassuring him, until he has no more need.
The Crab expects it as his due, and never gives up seeking it. Respect, Understanding, Love, Affection,Appreciation.
The Crab is inclined to be shy as a young man, growing more confident and sure of himself, and developing a marvelous sense of humor as the years pass. He’s loaded with charm,he has a soft way of speaking, and a softly soothing manner – yet his mind is quick and clever, and he, too, possesses a very hard head. It’s been said that Cancer has a soft heart and a hard head.
Don’t expect this man to bare his soul when he first meets you. Cancerians never confide in strangers, and there are certain things even their best friends don’t know. It will take a long time and a fair amount of patience to really know him.
He can be flirtatious and fickle, but he can also be sensitive and loyal. Without warning, that wrinkled frown can be replaced by a gentle smile. His crabby complaints and gruff manner can warm slowly into a tender tone, just before he breaks into a deep chuckle, a muffled giggle or loud, hysterical lunar laughter. When he’s sad and wistful, you’ll want to put your arms around him, and soothe away his melancholy. When he’s showing off his sharp, intuitive mind, you’ll stare at him in awe.
Cancer man is true to himself. His nature never deviates from its basic mold, despite the changes of expression that play on his features. Always try to remember that although a Cancerian’s manner can be rough and aloof, his heart is always soft and affectionate, and so full of sentiment it often makes him feel too vulnerable.
If he asks to take your picture, don’t grab your babushka and run. Photography is a common lunar hobby Although, he may engage in light flirtations, it may be many years before he becomes seriously enamored,because it isn’t easy for him to find a woman he feels is worthy of his interest. When he finds her, he’ll be beautifully sentimental,and he’ll lavish her with gifts and admiration.
He’s naturally shy of rushing in, but once he’s sure, he won’t be easily rebuffed. Cancerians can play the role of the romantic lover artfully. After he’s declared himself, and has some hope of winning you,his timidity will switch to tenacity overnight, and you’ll find yourself being courted by an earnest, determined man who won’t take no as an answer for any proposal he has in mind. He’s likely to stuff himself in your mailbox(figuratively, of course), camp on your doormat and monopolize your phone.
