A Cancer native is a family man who puts all his efforts into the betterment of those closest to him. Very attached to friends and those closest to him, he will never give up trying to make everything better and more extraordinary than before.
Falling in love with such a person basically means that nothing is too much trouble anymore, and that risks are opportunities worth taking.
Unlike our Gemini friends, Cancers can't just have sex like it's the most normal thing in the world, and then walk away.
For them, sex is really a continuation and even an intensifier of a relationship, of the bond between two people who share the same desires and pleasures. Hence, temporary flings are not really their thing.
Because of their aquatic upbringing, these individuals seem to intuitively perceive or predict certain situations, dangerous or not.
This is why most of them are reluctant and hesitant to invite someone into their world at first.
Over time and as the relationship deepens, they slowly reveal all there is to know, and it's a really great feeling to know that someone trusts you to that extent.
As the name suggests, this native has a protective outer shell that manages to cope with most potential problems.
What lies within them is something else entirely. They may appear rigid and corrosive at first glance, they know this and even they themselves recognise it.
However, upon closer examination, a whole new perspective opens up, full of affection, compassion, enthusiasm and boundless love. There is no end to Cancer's beauty once it begins to blossom, a process that involves care, attention and generosity.
However, they have their peculiarities, there is no doubt about that. One of the strangest things about them is the way they see sex, what category it falls into and how it is supposed to be treated. A means to an end, and a biological end.
To procreate, to have children, that is basically the vision these natives have of sex, nothing more than a method through which we can extend our genes, copulation in other words.
And although things tend to become less intense after children enter the picture, that doesn't mean that Cancers are complete recluses and practice abstinence. Out of attachment and love for their partner, they are more than willing to overcome that little obstacle.
Watched over by our natural satellite, these natives show incredible levels of compassion and generosity towards those they deem worthy.
Worthy in the sense that those close to them should also reciprocate and share the same feelings. If this is not the case, Cancers tend to become very anxious and disappointed, and may even be permanently scarred by it.
Cancers care a lot and take to heart every little thing you do. Although they may seem reluctant and hesitant at first, that's only because caution is involved, but once you're caught in the net, no one will be able to free you from their clutches.
Being so attached and involved also has its drawbacks, and that is the fear of rejection. Not that it can happen, but how and why it happens is very important.
What most influences Cancer's love agenda is what one is willing to do, emotionally speaking. Total and unrestricted involvement, that's what they are looking for, people who can withstand all the pressure and feelings fuelled by them.
Generosity and consideration are paramount to a great relationship with this native. It doesn't really matter what form it takes, as long as it is present.
Love takes the form of many things, especially the small and insignificant things that people do just because they feel like it.
These things deepen the relationship and serve as a foundation for what is to come. Whether it is fixing their gaze in meditation, or playfully stroking their hair in a moment of revelry, engaging in deep conversation, they all play an important role in general.
These natives are especially excited when they know that the other person is truly in love and in love with them, leaving nothing to be desired.
Discovering that you are the only thing that can make someone happy, that you are basically a must-have presence in someone's life, can mean a lot. Things like taking a romantic walk in the park, caressing their face in the moonlight or holding hands are what it's all about.
Very sensitive in body and mind, the art of touch has a very strong impact on them, it is what really animates them.
All you have to do is find out which sensitive spots are most responsive, and take action. Hint: try the chest and abdominal area.
As already mentioned, cancers are born in water, and therefore prefer this environment. Whether it's going to the seashore and bathing in the warm waters, or sipping a Piña Colada while hanging in a hammock, anything to do with humid, tropical places is a must.
Even things as simple as bathing together can become a very romantic and kinky event, with nothing to hold back.
What really matters is that the partner does not act out of spite or selfishness, but is caring and unselfish in his or her approach.
Want to know why a Cancer is the best lover in the world? Buckle up, because here we go. In addition to being very responsible and helpful, the natural emotional intensity that drives them also makes them tremendously attached and devoted.
Willing to go through thick and thin with that one person without any remorse or regret, there is literally no one like our Crab.
Although they are people of incredible devotion, at least physically, Cancers can sometimes encounter emotional problems.
And herein lies the problem. If they can't find comfort in the arms of their partner, eventually other opportunities will appear, other "arms" to fall into. And that's basically why you have to be there for this native when they need you.
If, for example, she does not feel that you are listening to her about how a close friend has betrayed her at the most inopportune moment, then things will take a turn for the worse.
The sign most likely to sleep with and marry a Cancer is Gemini. Love at first sight may seem like an overused cliché, but what can you do if that's what really happens?
A relationship based primarily on intimate contact and a physical bond that goes beyond mere sexual pleasure, the things these two could achieve together are commendable to say the least, and unfathomable at best.
It is as if they were once one living being, separated at the beginning of time and destined to wander the earth in search of their soul mate.
A Cancer native prides himself on being able to find a solution to any kind of problem, professional or emotional, the latter especially.
Without pain, there is no gain, and without taking any risk, how can you expect to receive anything of significance? How do you get to the top except by taking leaps of faith? This is exactly how they think and act in intimate relationships.
Whether it's putting their faith and offering you full access to all that they are, or going for an innovative and non-conformist sexual method, it's all good as long as the partner appreciates it.
