Article: A Cancer will rarely make the first move, so it is going to be up to you to step up and initiate a conversation.  Their emotional delicacy and fear of rejection tends to keep them at bay, but they will be open to your initiation. Do not rush them into a decision on the spot.  If you try to force them to give you an answer right away, that answer will likely be “no” and they will pull away from you.  Make suggestions and allow them time to make their decision.  If you ask them on a date, give them options of when and where, then allow them time to decide. Leave them with a question.  Give them time to consider your proposal, and check back with them later in the night to see what they think. A cancer enjoys physical affection.  Their erogenous zone is their chest.  This works better when flirting with a man than a woman.  Gently touch a Cancer man on the chest as you are flirting.  You could gently pat him on the chest when he genuinely makes you laugh. Gently run your hand along his chest as you briefly walk away, before you return to check in on him. While you want to avoid touching a woman’s chest while you are flirting, you can still be physically affectionate and reach out to touch her shoulder or forearm. Cancers are very loyal people and tend to have a small group of very close friends.  They will take their friends’ opinion of you to heart.  Being respectful and kind to a Cancer’s friends will draw you closer to the inner circle.  Spend some time with the Cancer’s friends when the Cancer walks away.  Befriend them on your own. Actively listen to what the friends have to say.  Make a point to learn their names and remember specific things about who they are and what they do. Ask a Cancer about their friends when just the two of you are together.  If someone had an important meeting come up, ask how it went.  If one of their friends is going through a tough time, follow up and ask the Cancer how that person is doing.
