8 Clear Signs Your Cancer Man is Going to Break Up

Cancer is a very moody and temperamental star sign, so it’s no wonder you’re having trouble understanding a Cancer man and reading how he feels about you.

If you’re worried that he’s having doubts about the relationship, certain hints will tell you when he’s close to splitting up with you.

By learning more about his star sign’s typical behaviors in relationships, you will know when a Cancer man is about to break up with you.

1. He Snaps at You

Cancer is a very mercurial and capricious star sign, so a Cancer man sometimes throws tantrums when he’s upset.

He can’t hide his feelings, no matter how hard he tries, so it’s always noticeable when he’s angry.

Cancers when hurt or upset tend to lash out at the people closest to them because they lack emotional self-control.

It’s normal for a Cancer man to snap at you sometimes, whether you’re the source of his anger or not.

But if your Cancer guy has been snapping at you more than usual lately, it could be a sign that he’s unhappy in the relationship.

It’s an especially bad sign if he blames you for things that aren’t your fault. He might get mad at you over things you have no control over.

If you feel like you’re constantly walking on eggshells around your Cancer guy to avoid provoking him, it means he is probably close to breaking up with you.

It doesn’t matter how hard you try to be perfect for him. If he has already decided he wants to break up, you have become the source of his unhappiness in his mind.

2. He Avoids You

Some zodiac signs are more independent than others and need lots of space even within a relationship. But a Cancer guy is a bit clingy and likes spending as much time as possible with his significant other.

He likes having a partner to share every experience with him, even if it’s something as mundane as going to the grocery store or running errands together.

The typical Cancer guy is more likely to be needy and codependent than to be the type of person who needs a lot of alone time and freedom in a relationship.

So, when your Cancer partner avoids you and seems reluctant to spend time with you, it’s a clear sign that your relationship is about to end.

If he’s suddenly staying late at the office every night, constantly going out with his friends without you, and telling you he needs space from you, it means your Cancer man is about to dump you.

It’s very unusual for him to not want to be around his partner, no matter what kind of mood he’s in.

Even if he just wants to sit on the couch and do nothing, he would normally prefer for his partner to be with him.

If you’re wondering what to do when a Cancer man ignores you and avoids spending any time with you, don’t think that ignoring a Cancer man back is the answer.

If you both act too busy for each other, the rift between you will eventually grow so big that you won’t have a relationship at all.

Give him a little time to himself, but then confront him and tell him that you have noticed he’s been avoiding you and acting strange.

You might be initiating a breakup conversation, but it’s better to be single than to stay in a relationship where you always feel alone, anyway.

3. He Complains about You to Others

A Cancer man in love is very loyal to his partner. Not only is he faithful, but he would also never say a negative word about her behind her back.

Even a Cancer man when hurt won’t go tell his friends about everything his partner did to upset him. He doesn’t want others to think badly of her, so he tries to protect her reputation.

But when a Cancer man is done with you, he will start bad-mouthing you behind your back. He is looking for other people to take his side and perhaps even encourage him to break up with you.

He might list all the things he doesn’t like about you, tell people all the ways that you are incompatible, or expose the secrets within your relationship that he promised to keep.

If you find out that your Cancer guy has been saying cruel things or complaining about you to others, it means he is about to dump you.

4. He Stops Confiding in You

A Cancer man likes being mysterious, but when he’s madly in love, he won’t withhold anything from his partner.

Especially in the early stages of dating a Cancer man, he will stay up all night with his partner trading secrets and telling deeply personal stories.

He craves intimacy with his lover, and he knows that sharing secrets is a great way to build a strong bond.

But when your Cancer man doesn’t want to be with you anymore, he will suddenly stop making you his confidante.

He won’t tell you how he’s feeling or open up about his past. You will feel like he’s hiding something from you because he becomes sneaky and secretive.

He might hide his phone screen from you when you glance over while he’s texting, or he will avoid answering when you ask him a direct question.

You might notice that his friends and family suddenly seem to know so much more about your Cancer guy than you do because he has stopped confiding in you.

When he doesn’t share his secrets or tell you anything about himself anymore, it means your Cancer man is close to moving on.

5. He Stops Being Affectionate

A Cancer man likes being intimate with his partner in every way, both emotionally and physically. Some zodiac signs aren’t very affectionate even when they are madly in love, but Cancer is a touchy-feely star sign.

Cancer is one of the most cuddly signs of the entire zodiac, and the typical Cancer man is a teddy bear when he’s in a relationship.

He loves holding hands, caressing, snuggling, and making out with his partner because it makes him feel close to her. He might tone down his affection slightly in public, but he’s not one to shy away from a little PDA.

He shows his feelings through physical touch, so when he’s in love with you, he shows it with hugs and kisses. He won’t be able to keep his hands off of you because he adores you so much.

But when he stops initiating contact and brushes you off when you try to be affectionate with him, it means you’re close to being dumped by a Cancer man.

He’s a sensitive guy, so sometimes if he’s in a foul mood, he might not feel like making out with you.

But if he goes from being cuddly and affectionate most of the time to barely touching you, it’s a very bad sign for your relationship.

This magic will make your Cancer man want a relationship with you.

6. He Doesn’t Initiate Intimacy

Cuddling and PDA aren’t the only forms of affection that are important to a Cancer guy when he’s in love.

A Cancer man views sex as an emotional act just as much as a physical one, and he cherishes intimacy with his partner.

Sex is important to a Cancer guy in a relationship becuase he wants to feel as close as possible to the woman he loves.

If your Cancer man stops initiating intimacy, it means he doesn’t feel close to you emotionally and he’s not interested in bridging the gap.

7. He Doesn’t Protect You

The typical Cancer man’s personality is very nurturing and protective. He feels a sense of responsibility towards his loved ones, and he wants to keep them safe.

Cancer men want to do everything they can to protect their partners, so when your Cancer guy puts you at risk or doesn’t shield you from danger, it means he doesn’t care about you anymore.

He might let you walk home alone late at night in the dark when you’re out at a bar together and you want to leave earlier than he does.

He won’t care when you’re driving in the rain and snow when normally he would insist on driving you himself or making you stay home.

If he doesn’t seem concerned for your safety and well-being anymore, it means your Cancer man’s feelings have changed and he’s about to dump you.

This one weird trick is the only way to attract a Cancer man.

8. He Separates His Life from Yours

A Cancer man doesn’t need a lot of space from his partner, and he enjoys merging his life with hers.

He gets excited about buying a home together, getting a joint bank account, or getting married because he wants to share everything with his lover.

If he suggests moving in together or introducing your friends so you can double-date, it means your Cancer man is committed to you and wants to merge your lives.

But if he refuses to share anything with you and seems put off at the idea of a future together, it’s one of the signs a Cancer man is playing you and will probably break up with you soon.
