Have you ever wondered what it is exactly that makes Cancer so intense?
People who are born under the Cancer sign can sometimes be stereotyped as nothing more than moody and over emotional creatures but the truth of the matter is Cancers are much more complex than that and they possess many unique traits and characteristics that aren’t always apparent the moment that you meet them.
Reason 1: Cancer is calm and chill… until they are provoked.
Cancers have a very sweet, compassionate, gentle nature. They are generally pretty easy going in their approach to life. Cancers might get hurt easily, but they don’t normally go into recluse mode over every little thing.
Some people like to take advantage of their kindness, which makes them feel unappreciated and taken for granted.
If you make them really mad, they might just try to hide their feelings until they eventually blow up.
When provoked their claws will come out and they’ll be sure to put you in your place in the way that only a Cancer.
A pissed off Cancer holds no bar. As loving and caring as they can be, they give zero fucks when someone has gotten them boiling mad.
Cancer is the most dangerous sign when angry so watch out how you treat them.
Reason 2: Cancer can hold onto a grudge for a loooooong time.
Cancer tries to treat people as they would like to be treated but when somebody seriously violates their trust or wrongs them in some way that they simply can’t forgive… well they can hold a grudge for a long ass time.
It’s best to just avoid getting on their bad side because they have long memories and they aren’t quick to forgive betrayal.
This trait makes it difficult for others to regain the trust of the Cancer. Honesty is a number one quality expected by those born under this sign.
If you get caught lying to a Cancer, you might as well give it up. Although they are more forgiving than those born under the sign of Scorpio, Cancer rarely forgets! Cancer can be your best friend, or your worst enemy.
Reason 3: Cancer can get sentimental and find themself yearning for the past. They have a great memory.
Cancers can sometimes find themselves reminiscing over the past and getting so caught up in their memories that they forget to live in the present.
Live in the past, they become emotional when they think back and think of the good old days.
They find it hard to let go of the old and for you it is not so easy to live in the present. Sometimes they just find it hard to ‘move on’ from things once they are over. Cancer has the worst time coping with letting go of the past.
One of a Cancer’s habit is they keep EVERYTHING, and are deathly afraid of losing or leaving anything behind.
They are strongly governed by childhood memories and live intensely in the past in memory and in the future in imagination!
Cancers most often have excellent memories.
A Cancer has great memory and will remember everything their partner says to see if they were lied to.
Although they may confuse the dates and names, but the important memories of the basic attitudes and actions are never blotted out from their memory.
Reason 4. Cancer is strong and resilient. They will surprise you.
A Cancer is a complex creature. Cancers are self-sufficient, but only on a surface level.
Cancers might have a reputation for being a bit on the sensitive side but you shouldn’t mistake that for thinking that they are weak.
In fact they are incredibly resilient and they’re more than capable of rolling with the punches no matter what life throws their way.
While they are not as stubborn as the Taurus, their resilience is how they obtain passion and excitement even when the odds are against them. Though inside it may be fragile, the crab’s shell is hard.
When something stands in Cancers’ way of what they want, it only further motivates them. In relationships, Cancers are more willing to work through problems instead of giving up. They want to make it work if they think it is worth it.
A kind of magnetic attraction pulls friends, family and lovers to Cancers.
Whether it’s their beautiful shells or their auras that make you want to discover what’s inside, you will discover many surprises when you get them to open up.
With their shells on, they fascinate you with your desire to know more because there is wonder inside their shells.
They are the ultimate contradictions – simple yet complex, cautious yet free spirited, tender yet edgy – and they never fail to keep you guessing.
While there are certain near guarantees you can expect, such as sensitivity and a caring heart, the adventurous side of a Cancer will take your breath away. Cancers are basically the best people to have in your life.
Reason 5: Cancer can become ruthless when they feel they have been wronged.
For the most part Cancer is pretty chilled and laid back but make no mistake: if you wrong them they will make you regret it.
Cancer is far from a pushover and they’re not afraid to stand up for themselves when others try to play them for a fool.
