Most people think of Cancers as the type of people who don't do much seduction or get very close to those of the opposite sex, because they are shy and insecure.
Well, that's not entirely true, because even if they prefer to be approached rather than take the initiative, if things stagnate for too long, they will go on the offensive without a second thought.
Generous ❤ They will invest all their time and effort.
Shy ❤ There is a hint of sweetness and innocence in them.
Optimists ❤ The glass will always be half full for them.
Attentive ❤ They will make compliments and demand the same.
Nostalgic ❤ Your past is still part of the game.
When a Cancer wants to flirt with you, they will start asking some common questions, to see what exactly it is you want, how you see it going from there, and what can be done to keep the interest alive. They are actually very nice in this way, even if they want to appear manly and domineering.
These natives will want to give themselves completely to the feeling of deep love and affection, and that means that their partner will be showered with attention, compliments and their eternal tenderness.
The way a Cancer flirts is one of the most satisfying and intriguing experiences, because their attitude denotes that the other person is their sole objective, and nothing else.
It's as if they are the only people left alive on a romantic date. At first, they want to know that you reciprocate their initial feelings and that they really want more than just a fling, before they go on the attack. There will be lots of smiles, laughter, caresses and a storm of emotions that will shatter any obstacles.
However, they are a bit shy and will only let themselves be loved freely when you show interest in them too.
If the couple overcomes that distance, then they will have nothing more to fear or anguish about. One way to demonstrate your affection and your desire to build something more than a mere set of dates is by seeking to care for your loved ones.
Bringing them lunch to the office, calling them to ask how they're doing and if they've got rid of that nasty cold, walking them to their car on a rainy day, etc. Plus, the atmosphere will be fun and entertaining when you're around these kids, because they're such a fun bunch.
It is not surprising that melancholic Cancers are, in general, less likely to go out to many social events, and introversion is rather their cup of tea most of the time.
Of course, that doesn't mean that they are not willing to leave that behind and enjoy the time they spend with a loved one. It's probably the only thing that can make them like going out into the world and into their private space.
And you can be pretty sure that when a Cancer gives up their comfort and silence to be with you, there is no other reason than that they are very much in love with you. It is a commitment they are more than willing to make.
With Cancers, there will be no need to interpret and rack your brains about their intentions, because they will be crystal clear about it all.
They will touch their partners endlessly, and want to stay in their embrace forever, so there's that, because they won't hesitate to ask for it.
Then there are the eyes, the enveloping and loving eyes of Cancer, which follow you everywhere.
When these natives lock eyes with their partner, it will either end in a steamy, mushy kissing session, or they will both become very aroused as a result.
It will be quite difficult for them at first, because of all the raw and intense emotions that cause an uproar up there. Mastering the situation and taking full control of those feelings will be a challenge, but they can also release them all, if the couple seems similar in this respect.
Anyway, it has never been easier to find out if someone likes you than by taking a look at how Cancers behave. If there was one thing in this world they deeply desired, it was to find true love, someone to spend all their time with, cuddling tightly in each other's arms, and snuggling together.
It's not going to be the easiest thing in the world to make a Cancer notice your advances and learn to reciprocate them. If you want to do it, it's time to take advantage of all the time you've spent fantasising about all the romantic ways you wished your partner would do for you, because this is exactly the time to use them.
These natives are extremely romantic, charming and sentimental, and will like nothing better than to be pampered and cared for by someone who loves them.
At first, things will move very slowly, because they will want to observe your intentions before committing themselves to anything.
Getting them out of an unpleasant social event will be your winning ticket with these natives, because they don't like all the fuss and bother of such crowded places.
It is not something they totally despise, but they would rather be with someone close to them, in a small group, than in the midst of a lot of people.
So take them by the hand and lead them outside, away from that overly lively party in the city centre, and you're more or less guaranteed to kiss them goodbye, or at least get their phone number. Be careful not to overstep some boundaries and intrude on their private space, because they won't take it well.
Cancer men are very protective and possessive of their love interests, and not in an exaggerated way, but in a tender and affectionate sense.
I mean, once you're together, they don't take their eyes off you, not even to watch for oncoming cars in traffic.
They are very protective and attentive to the possible dangers that may befall their lovers. And besides, they like it very much, it's as simple as that.
They like to look at their partner, feel them close and know that they will always be there, for the rest of their lives.
As a way of observing what the other is doing, Cancer women will prefer to have casual, ordinary conversations, in which they will find out as much as possible about how the other thinks, and about their desires and dreams.
It is a way to avoid wasting time with incompatible people, nothing more. Therefore, they will not get romantic and in love with the first person who comes along.
They will want to know who they are dealing with first, before unleashing their feminine charms. If there is no prospect of a future together, the most they will do is make a few pleasantries and quickly head for the exit.
