Steps
-
When a Cancer makes eye contact, she wants you to notice. A cautious water sign like Cancer can be shy, but she won't be able to resist gazing at you when she has a crush. [1] X Research source When you're together, you'll repeatedly catch her looking at you—and she'll hold your gaze when you do. It's her way of seducing you without saying a word.
- Reader Poll: We asked 303 wikiHow readers about the strongest indicator that someone thinks of you as more than a friend, and only 7% of them said if they point their hips and toes toward you . [Take Poll] Instead, see if they make repeated eye contact or get close to you.
-
Cancer women can get a little clingy around people they like. When she's crushing on you, she's probably also making a point to text you often—just to check up on you and let you know she's thinking about you. Don't be surprised if she calls you frequently, too; she doesn't like being apart from someone she likes and will be happier if she can hear your voice.
- Humor her and send her a prompt reply when she texts you. It'll help her feel more connected to you, and her affection for you will grow.
- On the other hand, if she texts you infrequently and takes a while to respond every time you text her, she may not be interested.
-
Introverted Cancer avoids socializing with people she doesn't like. A Cancer lady who makes an effort to see you and talk in person is definitely interested. [2] X Research source Pay attention to who starts the conversations between you—if she's starting as many as you are, you've caught her attention.
- As a Cardinal sign, Cancer is one of the instigators of the zodiac. Your Cancer leads with her heart, and you'll notice this as she steadily initiates more contact with you.
- On the other hand, if you're always going out of your way to talk to her (and not the other way around), your interest may not be mutual.
-
If she likes you, her body language will reflect it. Cancers like to feel physically and emotionally close to the subject of their affection, so she's probably been quite touchy-feely. Think about your interactions with her and how often she touches you. The more she does it, the more she likes you.
- Common signs include plenty of hugs, sitting close together, brushing your hands together when you walk, and touching your arm or shoulder when you say something funny.
-
Groups are stressful for Cancer; she'll be eager for one-on-one time. Cancers are more likely to have an inner circle of close friends and confidantes they spend time with individually. If she approaches you about spending quality time together, she's including you in that sacred inner circle—meaning she likes you and may even have a crush.
- Give your Cancer lady many opportunities to be close to you. [3]

A sensitive Cancer is extremely tuned in to your moods. This sign is ruled by the Moon, astrology's planet of emotions and intuition. As such, she's a nurturing soul who wants to take care of you; if you're upset about something or have a problem, she'll be quick to notice and do what she can to help. [4] X Research source When she really likes you, she'll put your needs first, even going out of her way if it makes you feel better.
- The best way to encourage Cancer's interest is to let her take care of you. Ask for help when you need it, and let her support you emotionally. [5]

When a Cancer has a crush, she'll ask you many questions. In fact, it might seem like she never runs out of questions to ask about your life! It'll be noticeable because she's usually more reserved around people she doesn't know. She probably likes you if she starts peppering you with questions and actively trying to learn more about you.
- She'll also talk about you often. She's got a big crush if she can't stop talking about how amazing you are to everyone she knows.
-
A nurturing Cancer woman is great at making comfort food. She's likely crushing on you if she asks about your favorite childhood meal and offers to cook it for you. Take her up on her offer and suggest cooking together. [6] X Expert Source Stina Garbis
Psychic Astrologer Expert Interview. 14 February 2022. She'll love partnering up, and she'll be flattered if you show appreciation for her efforts.- When you get together for a home-cooked meal, bring some tasty desserts and sweets you can both enjoy.
-
This sign tends to be guarded around strangers as a form of protection. When she really trusts you, she'll open up, show more emotions (both happy and unhappy) around you, and share details about her life. Expect long talks about anything and everything, lots of flirting, and learning new things about your Cancer's dreams, hopes, and fears.
- She'll also gossip with you, as she loves sharing details about other people she knows.
- Be careful not to criticize her as she opens up to you. Cancers are known for their sensitivity, so she's likely to take criticism personally. [7] X Research source
- She may even come right out and tell you that she likes you. However, this isn't a given, considering how shy Cancer signs can be. So, if she hasn't confessed her feelings, don't assume she doesn't like you!
-
Your Cancer lady is so sensitive that she can be prone to jealousy. She's protective of the people she cares about and may smother you with affection a little. [8] X Expert Source Stina Garbis
Psychic Astrologer Expert Interview. 14 February 2022. She'll also stay close to you in groups or crowds; if someone flirts with you, she might get between you or try to distract you. Once she's emotionally invested, she'll want everyone to know that she's staking a claim for your time and attention.- If she seems possessive, take a moment to tell her how important she is to you. A Cancer woman often craves reassurance, and your words will melt her heart!
-
Family is everything to her, so it's significant if she makes an introduction. Typical Cancer women dream of having a family someday and treasure their current family (unless there's a good reason for them to feel otherwise). When she wants you to meet her parents, it's probably a sign that she's deeply attached to you.
- If your Cancer lady wants you to meet her family, consider inviting her to meet yours. She'll be eager to meet them and take it as a sign that the feelings are mutual.
