The woman born under the sign of Cancer is a complete mystery when it comes to love ❤️​.

Have you ever tried to decipher her true feelings? With Cancer, it’s never that simple. Her emotions flow in deep waves influenced by the Moon, connecting her to her most intimate instincts and her desire to protect what she loves.

What drives a Cancer woman in love?

Generally, a Cancer woman prefers genuine relationships filled with affection and honesty. She dreams of building her ideal family and puts her heart into every relationship. When she falls in love, she becomes the protective soul of the home: she cooks your favorite meals, cares about your day, and wraps you up when you’re cold… All thanks to that lunar energy that amplifies her feelings and maternal instincts.

But, watch out! I say this as a psychologist and astrologer: despite all that love, Cancer knows very well that love and desire can be two different things. That’s why, in some cases, temptation might arise. It’s not that she seeks it out, but if she feels misunderstood or hurt… she might act on impulse.

I remember a conversation with a client who, smiling but honest, confessed to me: “Patricia, I’m faithful… but the day I feel undervalued, if someone gives me the attention and affection I’m missing, I can’t control my emotions.” That’s how authentic Cancer’s lunar energy is.

The secret to a Cancer woman’s loyalty

Never underestimate the importance of family traditions or the values she brings from home. If you feel the foundations of her trust are solid, you’ll have a loyal, devoted, and loving partner 🏡.

But… don’t even think about betraying her! A Cancer woman never tolerates infidelity. The Sun and Moon make her sensitive but also full of self-respect.

Are Cancer women loyal in their relationships?

Among all zodiac signs, Cancer needs to feel security and emotional warmth in a relationship. Her true happiness lies in the deep connection she builds with those she loves… The tight hug before bedtime, the sweet words upon waking: those little details mean the world to a Cancer woman.

She is protective, attentive, and has an impressive emotional memory (sometimes too much, don’t forget!).

Why might a Cancer woman cheat on her partner?

Honestly, if she ever cheats, it would be out of revenge. It’s like trying to return pain using the same language: emotions. Cancer is the sign most sensitive to the pain of betrayal. I’ve seen many Cancer women in sessions who tearfully said they would never be the “first” to cheat, but if they’re hurt… who knows.

Cancer’s watery nature carries very intense emotions. When she trusts, she truly opens up, lowers her guard, and lets you see her tender side. But if you disappoint her, that same guard turns to steel. That’s when she starts protecting herself and sometimes “getting even.”

How a Cancer woman reacts to infidelity

Discovering betrayal doesn’t turn a Cancer woman into a hurricane. In my experience, she tends to listen quietly. She’ll let you talk, ask few questions, and her eyes will say much more than any words. 👀

Don’t expect furious outbursts or dramatic soap-opera scenes. Instead, her pain shows in silence, distance, and looks full of reproach. But here’s a tip: if you want her forgiveness, the task will be monumental.

Forgiving doesn’t come easy for Cancer. If you’ve broken her trust, she’ll remember it for a long time. And probably, your mother-in-law (Cancer’s great ally) will be there to add a few words – get ready for family gatherings!

You might have to work day by day to regain even a small piece of her trust… and even then, success isn’t guaranteed.

Practical tips to nurture your relationship with a Cancer:

• Show affection often; don’t take her love for granted.


• Don’t play with her trust; it’s very hard to rebuild.


• Show genuine interest in her well-being and listen to her emotions.


• Make her feel safe and supported.


• Don’t be afraid to be thoughtful; small gestures win her heart every day.
