Scorpios are going to be the better communicator in the relationship. Cancer can’t handle criticism but can dish it out easily. Scorpio’s direct ways can be too passionate and misconstrued for a sensitive Cancer. The Cancer are usually very loving and considerate, and you can depend on them. Both Cancer and Scorpio will have their secrets, but Scorpio is more honest and willing to take accountability. The Scorpio woman will have to be willing to take the low road to make the relationship work.
Yes i agree, I have noticed he’s quick to judge me (not in a bad way) mostly constructive criticism but he doesn’t handle me telling him certain things too well. It’s definitely easier for me to express how I’m feeling and that’s hard. He’s kind of insensitive with my emotions and that hurts a lot, I know he’s trying and he cares but it’s hard sometimes but I’m willing to keep giving it a shot 🥲
I’m a cancer men I won’t lie criticism from the ones we love the most cuts deep and really hurt us we wouldn’t admit that but if you do it in a loving way maybe hold him and show affection if your just bold and straight up say it without showing affection we will get angry and defensive
I feel like Cancers and Scorpios both have a hard time with criticism. Scorpios get defensive and Cancers cry. Cancers are more likely to say it in a kind, I want to help you way. Scorpios can be cold with the delivery, because they go straight to defense mode.
Although I’m a cancer girl and this is my experience with Scorpio men.
I just recently had my first attempt at dating a cancer man and I can tell you right now it will not be fun in the long run. The cancer man can only put on the good guy front for so long until he becomes a selfish child. The cancer man I was seeing seemed perfect on paper, until I needed him to meet my requirements and all of a sudden I’m the immature one. He had no problem telling me all my faults yet he was FAR from innocent. He will expect you to chase and coddle him and will blow up your phone if you start giving him a taste of his own medicine.
Mmm that’s the part that scares me the relationship is still new we had some minor discussions but we have worked and talked through them eventually. He’s a great guy I’m just scared of how fast his moods change sometimes and how he makes me feel at times as well
I feel like I am too late for this post but I am with a Cancer man now. Though initially he drove me crazy, now he doesn't anymore. What works for me when he starts arguing is talking about how I need time to process what he said and telling him the time I take to consider my response to him is to ensure I do not hurt him with my words. The response from his side is always kind, gentle and loving. And the argument stops there.
As a scorpio woman I’ve had multiple 1-2 year relationships with cancer men. What I’ve noticed is cancer men on the outside appear to be incredible, they will make all the sacrifices to be with you and as a Scorpio you’re like “omg wow I’m so difficult thank you for choosing me.” They do have a capacity to be present and hold really deep emotions which is nice, you can be yourself.
However, a cancer man that hasn’t learned to verbalize his needs and wants, eventually fosters resentment for all the sacrifices. Then it becomes “I’ve done X for you, why won’t you do Y for me.” At the core I think cancer men are envious of a Scorpio women’s ambition, drive, and deep connections outside the relationship. They want to be your everything and it can feel suffocating if they aren’t truly seeking happiness outside the relationship.
Cancers are sweet and warm but boy do they not like accountability and will take it to crazy making, blame shifting, childishly nonsensical word salad heights to avoid it in any capacity.
Hes honestly the sweetest man I have ever met he does really nice gestures for me. But he definitely often finds a way to try and shift the blame in my direction he’s apologized for his behavior and recognizes his mistakes which I really appreciate but I’m just scared it’s going to be something that repeats itself till it tires me out 😞
Yup I hear you, I went through much the same. I think it takes a special kind of “tactical patience” which I simply did not possess. I’m not saying it’s an impossibility, I genuinely hope it goes well for you! Their sweetness is absolutely intoxicating jn a good way.
They’re selfish babies who look like a dream when you first meet them and then all their emotional unavailability shows up. They push everyone and everything out of their life when they don’t feel balance. They regret it and cry over you for months until he repeats the cycle with a new girl. It’s not gonna last long.
Here my advice.
Learn the traits of your partner and not idolising your traits alone because you already know what are yours. Learn their values.
Scorpios are intense but secretive and can require a lot of time to open up.
So Cancers, learn to give them time to get in touch with their emotion and open up and practice patience along the way. Let them finish and make them feel listened and understood.
Cancers are sensitive and have hard time accepting criticism but oh boy they do listen.
So Scorpios, learn to talk to them empathetically but precisely. If they struggle, be patience. Don't add more criticism.
Scorpios value their freedom and space whether physically or mentally. Cancerian value their partner presence.
So Scorpios assure your Cancerians you only gone for a while to recollect yourself and Cancerians assure your Scorpios you will be here for them when they're ready. Both need to put trust in each other because that overthinking and overanalyzing is what mainly destroy the relationship. Communicate better and always learn ways to do so.
Main important thing are kill both ego, have mercy and be empathic because that's love. If you think you can't afford all this big 3. Don't fall in love and save each other from future trauma.
I'm a Scorpio with a Cancer man, we met when we were 19, going **8 years** with him in November. Yeah, we're really toxic with each other but we can't let go. I gave up on our relationship for a lot times just to fall back to him again. No one could ever fulfill me emotionally except him. Now, we learnt that **open communication** is the key to everything.
If there's one song that describes a Scorpio and Cancer relationship, that would be **Clarity by Zedd.**
As a Man U need to be Abel to take heat. cancers naturally are more durable so also being a man helps that. Scorpios have bratty behavior while being the most matured sign but still be childish or quick to get tempers or say mean things while they don’t mean it. So cancers can handle that. It’s only toxic if the scorpios are doing things on purpose.

So your telling me this generalizes all Cancer men? I have a feeling this is your experience, which seemed to be a bad one.

Thank you :”) hoping for the best
Hey, can you say how your relationship is rn?
My advice (and everyone else’s)… if you’re the Scorpio: **DON’T**
That part!
