Just started dating a Cancer man and I've had a couple of people tell me to "be careful" with this sign lol...... I think it's going well so far but I'm curious what to expect? I tbh don't really know all that much about Cancers so what are the pros and cons of dating a Cancer dude?

To make a relationship with a Cancer guy work, do your best to remind him of his mother...but also, let him take care of you. Cancer men love to be able to take care of people. So ask him for his help if you're sick or have a problem, because they love to emotionally support others. Cook together and eat meals with them. Bring them appetizing desserts and sweets to enjoy together.

Allow him to smother you a little bit. He is going to want to be close and to be helpful and you should give him opportunities to be close to you. Beware of changing moods, give him space when he needs it, and know that he will come back around in a couple of days.

Aw man I don't know why the people you're talking to are telling you to "be careful" with Cancer men!! They are such big softies, they're real sweethearts. They want so badly to take care of you and make you feel safe and secure in a relationship, and when I was dating a Cancer i did feel really safe around him.

Wait until he has mood swings. First and second time around is okay. The third time, you’ll need to comminicate that you won’t tolerate those kind of behaviors.

I disagree w/ this only b/c I’m a Capricorn female & my Cancer man has his moments but I think we compliment each other in that when a mood swing does happen we communicate it or I have my ways to bring him back to the moment and calm down take a breathe.
I think we all have some form of mood swings and my Cancer man is everything this article has said in the best ways imaginable. And a Capricorn woman & Cancer man really aren’t the best match as far as zodiac signs go
