10 Obvious Signs Cancer Man is Not Interested (in You)

Cancer men make loving, supportive partners and friends. If he cares about you, you’ll see his warm, nurturing side. When he’s not interested, though, he may seem cold and unsupportive.

A Cancer man who isn’t interested might also constantly make excuses for why he can’t hang out with you.

He may cancel plans at the last minute because he’s “not feeling well.” He might also say he’s busy whenever you ask to hang out.

A Cancer man might also act uncomfortable around you when he’s not interested. If the Cancer man is your friend, he might seem off compared to how he usually acts.

1. Never Supports You

One of the signs a Cancer man doesn’t like you is that he’ll never support you when you need him to.

Cancer men make very supportive friends and partners. If you need a Cancer man to be there for you, he’ll do what he can to give you the support you need.

If he’s not interested in you romantically or platonically, he won’t go out of his way to support you. You might find that he’s always busy if you reach out to him.

He won’t necessarily be rude to you if you reach out for emotional support. A Cancer man might suggest you reach out to somebody else instead of him if he’s unwilling to support you.

If a Cancer man is hiding his feelings from you and he is interested, he’ll be supportive. He might not confess to being interested right away, but he will offer emotional support if you need it.

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

2. Stops Texting

It’s not always a bad sign if a Cancer man goes quiet. Don’t worry if he stops responding temporarily. If he’s not interested, he will constantly ignore your texts.

Cancer men are usually good about texting back. They enjoy talking to their friends and loved ones via text. A Cancer man might not always text first, but he is excellent at responding.

He won’t respond to your texts if he’s not interested in you. If he wants to be friends, he might ignore any flirtatious texts but still respond to other ones.

Cancer men are bad at directly telling somebody they don’t want to talk to them.

Instead, a Cancer man might leave you on read all the time. He may also end up blocking you if you text him too much and he doesn’t want to talk to you.

3. He’s Secretive

Some Cancer men are naturally secretive but not to the same degree as a Scorpio man. Cancer men will gladly share things about themselves, especially with people they enjoy being around.

A Cancer man who isn’t interested in you may be uncharacteristically secretive when he’s talking to you. He won’t just be shy. He will actively try to conceal things from you.

Cancer men are secretive when they don’t trust people. Many are open books, but they won’t want to reveal too much about themselves to someone they don’t like.

A Cancer man might be secretive about what his schedule is like or what his plans are for the weekend. He does this because he doesn’t want you to know when he’s available.

A Cancer man might refuse to answer questions about himself or give you vague answers. This is a sign he’s not interested in letting you get to know him.

4. Cancels Plans Constantly

Not all Cancer men are good at outright rejecting people. Even if a Cancer man isn’t interested in you, he might make plans with you if backed into a corner.

He’s not going to keep those plans, though. A Cancer man will likely cancel on you at the last minute or say he “forgot” and not show up.

This might happen if you and the Cancer man have mutual friends. He may not want to offend you by outright rejecting you if he frequently sees you at events or when you two hang out with your group of friends.

A Cancer man might legitimately forget about the plans because he’s not actively focused on you. If he’s not interested, you’re likely to slip his mind easily.

He might also cancel constantly on purpose. A Cancer man might be hoping that you’ll back off if he’s too flakey.

5. He’s Always Busy

A Cancer man might never make plans with you to begin with if he’s not interested in you. Whenever you ask, he’ll be busy.

He won’t make any effort to let you know when he is free, either. A Cancer man will likely give you vague answers when you ask when he’s available.

No matter how far ahead of time you ask him to do something with you, your Cancer man will always be busy.

He might make odd excuses to get out of making plans with you too. A Cancer man will do anything he can to avoid spending time with you if he doesn’t like you.

Again, a Cancer man won’t always want to directly tell you he doesn’t like you. He will make it difficult for you to spend time with him.

6. He’s Uncomfortable Around You

When a Cancer man is not interested in you, he might seem uncomfortable whenever you’re around.

A Cancer man might not always tell you outright that he doesn’t appreciate your advances. He won’t always tell you to stop if you’re flirting with him.

You’ll be able to tell if a Cancer man is uncomfortable. He might avoid eye contact or stand far away from you if you’re talking to him.

If you’re making a Cancer man uncomfortable, it’s best to just back off. You won’t make anything better by staying around him.

7. He’s Cold

How do you know when a Cancer man has lost interest? If he was warm and affectionate with you but suddenly becomes cold, that might mean he’s no longer interested in you.

If a Cancer man is sending mixed signals and alternating between hot and cold, that might mean he’s unsure about his feelings for you. If he’s uninterested, he will remain cold toward you.

It will be obvious if a Cancer man is acting cold toward you. Even if he’s shy, he’ll still seem warm and welcoming. He will be closed off and distant if he doesn’t like you.

Acting cold toward you needs to be a pattern. A Cancer man might act cold one day because he’s not feeling well, but the next time you see him, he’ll be his usual self. Pay attention to how he treats you most of the time.

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

8. He Ignores You

One sign a Cancer man has lost interest in you is that he’ll suddenly start ignoring you all the time. This won’t be a temporary silent treatment. He’ll refuse to listen any time you want to talk to him.

A Cancer man who is no longer interested in someone might not always let them know right away. He might hope that if he ignores you enough, you’ll get sick of it and move on all by yourself.

If a Cancer man needs time to think about his feelings for you, he might ignore you temporarily. He won’t actively ignore you when you talk to him, though. If you happen to run into him, he’ll gladly speak to you.

9. He’s Never Affectionate

One of the signs a Cancer man is playing you is that he’ll only be affectionate when he wants something from you. If he liked you, he would be affectionate all the time.

Cancer men are very affectionate with people they care about. They might take a little bit to start being affectionate with someone they don’t know well.

Once he gets to know you, though, he’ll gladly hug you or offer other kinds of physical affection.

When a Cancer man doesn’t like you, he’ll actively avoid any physical affection with you. He won’t hug you as a greeting. He will stand far from you if you two are in the same place.

10. He Never Offers Help

Cancer men are naturally nurturing. They are caring and compassionate people. Most of the time, a Cancer man is happy to help out somebody when they need it.

If he’s not interested in you romantically but wants to be your friend, a Cancer man will help you out if you ask. If he’s not interested in you at all, though, he won’t be jumping at the chance to help you.

A Cancer man doesn’t want you to get the wrong idea. He doesn’t want you thinking he’s available for you when he’s not. He also doesn’t want to get taken advantage of by somebody he’s not interested in.

If he ever does help you with something, pay attention to how he acts. Did he offer, or did you ask him? Does he seem happy to help, or is he acting like it’s a chore?
