Authentic, capable, and self-assured women are highly sought after by cancer guys.
Show him that you have limits, self-esteem, and a strong sense of your own value in the world if you want him to pursue after you. It’s nice and admirable to display your financial competence. Resources are his favorite thing since they allow him to be secure and take care of the home.
You want him to see how busy your life is, but you also want to be careful that he doesn’t think he has no place in it. To entice a Cancer man to chase you, you must be capable and independentbut not inordinately so.
Cancer males require a sense of need and utility from their lovers. He will look elsewhere if he doesn’t believe that you would really value and benefit from having him in your life.
Keep in mind that these men adore educated women. Showcase your social intelligence and knowledge of current affairs and trends. It’s excellent to be well read.
Aim to be the best version of the woman you already are rather than striving to be the kind of woman you believe he desires. Genuineness is crucial.

Don’t be afraid to flirt a bit and show your interest
When pursuing women, Cancer men may lack confidence. They are undoubtedly born charmers and flirts. But occasionally they find it difficult to emerge from their shells.
Most Cancer men will want to see you open up a little before they start chasing you. Only then will these men eagerly take a risk and pursue.
So make sure to let him know that you think he’s intriguing and handsome. Of course, you don’t want to seem unduly dependent or desperate. However, it’s a good idea to catch his attention by showcasing some of your feminine characteristics. You can giggle at what he says, touch him, lean into him, bat your eyes, toss your hair, give him your complete attention, etc.
Make sure he believes you are on his side when you approach him and express interest. Cancer men have a tendency to be rather tribal, sticking close to people they feel safe around and vehemently shunning people he perceives as enemies.
Show him that you’re family-oriented
Depending on the nature of their family of origin, many men have strong links to their families, for better or worse.
The Cancer man typically feels compelled to start a family regardless of his family’s history. This sign’s man of romance is looking for a fruitful, family-oriented companion for a romantic domestic relationship.
You don’t have to depend on your family in a codependent way (though he may be with his). All you need to do is show a tendency toward family issues. This could show itself as a strong bond with your family or ideals about starting a family of your own.
He must see that you are ideal marriage material as well as perfect relationship material for him to chase after you. He believed that he could start a family with you.
So when you speak with him, brag about your family. Inquire about his family, focusing on his mother and sisters in particular. Inquire about his own family’s objectives (with timing and tact, of course).
Be receptive to the chance to spend time with his family. Make an effort to win over his family, especially the women. When the chance arises, find out as much as you can about his family and keep that information for when the time comes. If you later bring up some details about his family, it will really impress him.
Additionally, ensure that your own home is as spotless, organized, and comfortable as possible (with as many feminine touches as possible). If he comes over, here’s a quick tip: fix something. He’ll jump at the chance to assist you, loving every second of it and winning your affection in the process.
Don’t hesitate to ask him for help and advice
He enjoys some codependence in his relationships, though. He enjoys being able to offer help and support. He enjoys feeling necessary.
So ask for his assistance to make him feel like a responsible handyman and guardian.
Perhaps you need help with some everyday tasks, like housework or child care. He is hardwired to seize the chance. Reaching out for emotional support may cheer him up because he enjoys giving it.
The more you tell him how much you appreciate him, the better. He will open up to you and confide in you when you open up to him. His drive to chase is closely tied to his desire to emotionally nurture others.
If the time is appropriate, don’t be hesitant to discuss previous relationships with this guy. He likes to play the heroic knight, so if you indicate that previous partners have mistreated you, he will feel compelled to take care of and defend you. He will pursue you and try to enter your life out of this protective yearning of his.
Be reliable in the midst of his changing moods
Moon rules Cancer males, who have the potential to be the most sensitive people in the zodiac.
A male Cancer may experience significant mood swings, take things too personally, and become mired in depressive states for an extended period of time.
You should try to calm him down even if he is acting irritable and excessively sensitive during a meltdown. Keep your composure and patience around him. Don’t criticize or pass judgment on him. He despises that a lot.
Having said that, if he’s acting in an immature and toxic manner, you shouldn’t put up with it. Only so far can compassion go. Don’t take it in stride if he becomes extremely manipulative or passive-aggressive (a Cancer specialty). Don’t cross any lines.
Do Cancerians enjoy being pursued?
The chasers are often drawn to a Cancer. She is really timid and might be challenging to get to know.
People that are drawn to her will go above and beyond to make her feel at ease. She will eventually realize that she is being pursued, and she will adore it.
A companion who makes it evident that she is the one object of their attention is something that a Cancer values above all else.
How do you enthrall a Cancer to you?
While cancer men are empathetic, they can also be fiercely self-advocating.
A true softy who is incredibly sensitive and only wants to be loved lies beneath that harsh exterior.
Here’s how to captivate a Cancer man’s attention:
Will a Cancer man initiate contact?
When they begin to sense a connection with someone, cancer trembles. The seashore and the sea are equally appealing to this sign, which approaches everything like the tiny crab in its constellation. To prevent Cancer from falling victim to their own indecision, you must take the initiative first. Your relationship won’t survive if you don’t do this.
When wooing your Cancer, be careful not to come on too strong or you’ll make them retreat into their shell in terror. Instead of verbally expressing your interest, it is preferable to demonstrate it to avoid overwhelming Cancer with the intensity of your and their emotions. Asking a Cancer whether you can kiss them when the time is appropriate is the finest method to initiate contact with them. If they respond positively, go slowly and gently. If they respond negatively, your stars are simply not in alignment.
How should you respond if a Cancerian man ignores you?
Give your Cancer man an ultimatum: either stop employing the silent treatment, or you’ll go so you may find someone else. This will help if your Cancer man is ignoring you.
Giving an ultimatum is typically one of the things to avoid doing in a relationship. However, there may not always be much opportunity for maneuvering if a Cancer man chooses to ignore you. Rightfully so, you might be concerned that this won’t help you win his approval as men typically dislike ultimatums.
However, by confronting him in such a direct manner, you’ll give him the option of drastically altering his conduct in a direction you’d approve of or breaking up with you so he can start dating someone who doesn’t mind the silent treatment.
Do tumors enjoy being handled?
Cancer wants to feel close to and connected to their mate since they are emotional and affectionate. When people are in love, they are truly in love and want to show it in every way possible, including through touch and encouraging words. They don’t mind a little PDA, but they would rather show their passion at home when cuddling up to their partner. Cancer loves to hold hands with their spouse when walking or even just sitting next to one another at home since they like to keep their relationships as close as possible. They would do anything to maintain constant physical contact with their mate.
How can a man with Cancer express interest?
A Cancer man will start to establish an emotional connection with you as soon as he senses the first signs of interest.
He will seek to develop a relationship with you based on empathy and mutual understanding. In an effort to learn more about you, he will hold onto your unsettling words and pose pointed inquiries. He’ll ask you to complain about ex-partners, and he’ll pay close attention as you do.
He will convey that he is open to you through his body language. He might make frequent eye contact with you, nod in agreement, get closer to you, or expose his body to you.
You can check this by being more open with him and observing whether he responds back (with high curiosity) or withdraws (lack of interest).
He pays close attention to what you say when you talk to him. He wants to learn about your life, therefore he will ask you many questions, listen intently, and recall specifics.
He’ll likely enquire about more personal details than you typically reveal. He is a water sign, and they are known to be very curious about other people. In return, he’ll open up to you and share details of his life.
It’s crucial to understand that while he’s friendly and warm with someone he’s interested in, he doesn’t necessarily do the same for everyone. Due to their internal sensitivity, cancers typically maintain a strong, protective barrier (like the crab, their zodiac symbol).
How do you make a man with Cancer miss you so much?
Make the most of your time together if you want your Cancer man to miss you when you’re apart.
- Make a space where he can express his emotions without fear. When they feel protected, cancer men truly open out. Make him feel cared for, seen, and safe. Be completely understanding and encourage him to express himself freely. You will feel like a breath of fresh air to him if you make him feel loved and welcomed; he will miss you terribly when you leave.
- Be a good sleeper. He’ll miss you for sure if you can rock his world when you’re under the covers. Make careful to understand his sexual preferences. In my post on the subject, I discuss the sexual preferences of Cancer males.
If you do these things correctly, he will be completely captivated by you (and will feel cut off from you when you are away). He will fervently miss you and make every effort to reestablish your closeness to him.
