Cancer Man and Leo Woman Love Compatibility

Fire and Water make an astonishing amalgam of passion and calmness between a Leo and a Cancer. There is likely to be an enormous attraction between the two and warmth of expression which both the signs need to feel comfortable in a relationship. But sometimes Fire may horrify the Water, leading to devastation.

A Cancer man is basically a strongly focused and determined person with great sense of humor and pronounced leadership skills. He is quite enduring and shows a lot of compassion. Once he aims for something, he hardly looks back or regret on his decision. In love with a Leo woman, he can play the role of an ideal romantic lover effortlessly. He easily woos his Leo woman with his loving nature and perfect gentleman attitude. But his possessiveness can make her uncomfortable and his mood swings may also confuse her during their courtship.

A Leo woman is an extremely graceful woman with all the tantrums and delicacies possible. She loves challenges and takes them head-on. She is full of pride and elegance and doesn’t stand to any ridicule. Generally she is an exceptionally generous and warm lady with all the qualities of leadership. When in love with a Cancer man, she gives passion and strength to their relationship. She respects him but in return demands equal respect and some more devotion from him. She is fairly a lady of high dignity but if she doesn’t get enough attention, she goes around to other places to have it. This flirting nature of hers can make the Cancer man insecure at times.

A Leo woman is a magnificent mate for a Cancer man. She is very kind and active partner who brings cheers and fervor in the life of the Cancer male. The mood swings displayed by him can annoy her but being a generous person, she tends to forgive quite easily. She always stands by him to support him during all the thick and thin. She provides her man with the much needed emotional security through her warm and generous nature and her passionate way of loving him. The great sense of humor of Cancer man keeps the spirits of his Leo female high as a result of which she gives him complete devotion and dedication.

A Cancer man perfectly makes the man of a Leo woman’s dreams. Though at times she finds him strange due to his insecure nature but his sensitivity always impresses her. He provides a cocoon for the Leo girl to protect her from the people who are most likely to hurt her and make her feel very secure in his presence. He never dominates on his lady and let her make her own decisions. Most of the times she has an upper hand in making decisions, but when her thought process becomes too capricious, then he takes charge of things with all his power and wisdom. He expresses his displeasure towards his Leo love in a very subtle manner instead of losing his temper. His composed attitude helps her to become more loyal and take the relationship more seriously.

The compatibility between the Cancer man and Leo woman can be extremely good as lovers as they give up all the grudges and fall deeply and selflessly in love with each other. He who is totally in love with her supports her to take the leap in to a career which interests her and he also let her take the reigns of the house. At the same time, she respects him and follows his lead with complete devotion. She inspires him to become more experimental in life and fill warmth of love in his heart while he teaches her to be less aggressive and cools down her arrogant fury with his calm watery approach.

The Leo woman can gladly let the Cancer man take the lead as far as the physical aspect of the relationship is concerned. So it’s like that she rules in day time and he rules in bed time. They will have a great physical relationship as both of them have similar kind of desires. The emotions exuded by both of them will make their physical relationship a lot more interesting. She will sometimes display a cold exterior if her ego gets hurt in any way, and he can frequently adopt an indifferent attitude if he is rejected for certain reasons. Compassion serves as the foundation for the physical relationship between them. Lack of compassion may make their physical relationship lackluster. It would help him in bed if he, once in a while, gifts her some sexy jewelry or her favorite dress or something. She always feels so feminine, so girlish, so adored when she wears them. In turn she gives him a very good, unexpected show. She could feel the excitement coursing through her veins and her heart pounds as he looks at her with love and desire, equally.

A Cancer man loves his Leo woman graciously and with complete sincerity. He never tries to dominate her but definitely tries to manage her life in a better way. On the other hand she worships him for the immense security and support he provides in all aspects of life. She gives him the devotion he craves for and provides a very stimulating partner. But the mood swings of the Cancer man can confuse her and she may feel offended at times. Moreover his insecurities and possessive nature may make her feel restricted at times. What irritates him is generally her extravagance as she loves to live like a queen and her flirting nature which she enjoys to get attention from other men. This attitude of her turns him cold and there can be problems in their relationship. To get it back on the right track she just needs to give up some of her false pride and he needs to be more trusting.

I was with a Cancer Man in the past.. We were best friends and lovers, and boy was he a good lover! Not to mention the sexual part of the relationship was on fire! Im a very sexual person and his sex drive seemed to match mine just fine. Although he preferred when I’d be in charge in bed. :P Well it was a very easy-going, relaxed reltioship and he did a very good job at showing that he cared. The one problem was: Sometimes he would not give me enough attention, and because of my constant crave for attention I’d go elsewhere to find it, and he’d get jealous/upset over it. I think in the end he just thought of me as a big attention whore. But I really couldnt help it.

My male Cancer friend broke up with a girl and about a month later, started flirting with me. I wasn’t really ready for a relationship (recently widowed) but did not want to lose him, so I indicated my interest and kicked a ball in the field. (I knew with Cancer, I’d HAVE to make the first move) He just stood there and looked at it. Can you imagine my humiliation? Now, he keeps waffling back and forth with his ex-girlfriend. We’re back to being just friends without the flirting, but now, my feelings are really hurt. He doesn’t realize this, of course, but does anyone have any advice as to what course of action I should take now? I really, really like this guy and it’s hard for me to find someone I like THIS much. It’s hard to just keep acting like his friend when I’m dying to have sex with him. What’s even more embarrassing, is all his friends are aware that I’m attracted to him ~ I didn’t bother hiding my feelings when he was flirting. Where’s that hole in the ground when you need it??

H e has to do the first step as sex he has to be the one camming to you.

Well…. I’m a Leo woman who was married to a cancer man….. For a disgustingly short while. This was the first and only cancer I had ever been with and it was an awful experience. The only thing was, he was or still is bipolar. The mood swings were AWFUL. The jealousy, OMG! Our sex life was also awful…. He was WAY insecure. I mean, I like a sensitive man, but dang. So basically, ever since then I’ve stayed away. But now, several years later, I have a Cancer gent TRYING to court me. Lol he’s SO CUTE! And VERY sincere. I cam definitely tell he’s sensitive. But he has this confidence too. Enough confidence to be able to tell me the things he’s telling me. Being a Leo woman I tend to intimidate men. So I can tell that he’s really putting himself out there. I think as long as this one’s not bipolar…. I just may have found my man. Or I think in this case… He’s found me. =)

I am a leo woman who was with a cancer man and omg was that a roller coaster….. We were friends for eight years and in and out of a relationship with him for five of those years. We finally broke up forever when he asked me to not have our second child. It got really ugly….and i know that now that shes here he adores her but nothing can take back everything that was said and done from both sides and i know that we both care deeply for each other but we both have so much pride and we are both seeing someone else now….. But we have to children in common it makes it sooo hard but i couldnt go back to dealing with his moods i love him dearly cuz he is a wonderful person in many ways but couldnt deal with his moody/ bipolar attitude just couldnt do it…..

i am a leo dating a cancer man…and boy is our relationship crazy!!! We have been literally inseperable since the day we met. He is my best friend even though its hard to talk at times because of his jealousy…I love him and crazy about him, we just recently had a child together so I know that we will know each other for a long time. I feel so secure with him, he’s perfect for me because I don’t think anyone else would put up with me and live up to my expectations. the only thing I HATE about him is his mood swings and his temper. he needs to work on that…and i’m on him hard about that. but leo and cancer make a good match. very passionate love union. leo needs attention, adoration, and love. cancer gives it.

Now I really have to say this.

This is just your own experiences so people don’t say stay away or go ahead with a relationship with one sign or another based on your own experience as that PERSON is that SIGN, not the WHOLE SIGN.

And yes I am a Cancer man and I have to say that Leo women are very attractive to us

I can say that your right a little bit there, there are so much to mention, apart from sign. But If you do your own search you will realize a lot of truth in the astrology. I have done mine, and I do agree most of the time, as long as it states the truth.

Anyway, yes, the cancer man is the medicine for a Leo woman. I have done some search, except on the shell part of the cancer. Leo woman is very open. Easily for a cancer man to fall in love. I am a Leo and I am in love with cancer man. He is a homebody, extroverted but that does not bother me,fun loving, sensual and well mannered, who would be attracted to a Leo woman if not well mannered. Yeah, that’s it.

I have no idea why but 97% of the relationships I have ever been in were with Cancer men. I am a Leo woman and without really knowing the men that always latch on to me are Cancer men. My current relationship is with one. An although I feel we are in a gray area, I am completely devoted to him. We give to each other what the other one needs. ♥

It was great reading comments and personal stories of different people, thanks for sharing! I am also a leo woman and like a lot a cancer man,although we have more fights than romance. He is adapting to someone very slowly, he is afraid to trust and he is very principal and pride. However, when he gets used to you he starts to trust u little by little and show you that he cares. But, i do not like that I am the one who always make first steps towards him, and unfortunately not always he appreciate it, more often he just behaves even more pride. Also i should mention that he has great sense of humour and he is the one you can rely on.

Thanks so much for sharing. Im a Leo woman in a newer realtionship with my Cancer man. I absolutely love him. its intersting to hear the dynamics shared, that the Cancer man is introverted, reserved, respectful, moody, reliable, trustowrthy, and faithful. these are very endearing qualities to me. I want our relationship to last and believe he does too. Principally, we share the same ideals and want the same things for the future and family. Im not the traditional Leo in that i like to stay home as well. Im really big on making home life everything it needs to be, safe, beautiful, stable, happy, and enriching. I think we’ll be fine in the long run. It definitely takes some wisdom and thickening of the skin to be with the Cancer man. But these are food for the spirit and life anyway. so I see him as being one of my teachers and inspirations to be better as a person.

As a cancer man i have to say, leo women are the most attractive to me. Probably because they are so outgoing and im more reserved. The two women iv loved the most in my life have been leos. The one im after at the moment is dating a taurus, and they fight all time. I know she likes me, but shes just so obsessed with him she cant let it go. Im hoping in time she realizes who truly loves her

Hi! My name is JOY, I’m a LEO, and a traveling Registered Nurse. I’ve met this guy who works in environmental department. He’s a CANCER( born July 9th). When I’ve first seen him, it was instant ATTRACTION. He would stare at me and I’ll look at him under eyed to hide my feelings due to I’ve moved from North Carolina to Florida and dating a Psychiatrist doctor. I’m trying to be faithful, but the psychiatrist is boring, anticipates very little sex, doesn’t date, lack of communication, harsh, and shows no attention to the ROARING LION (e.g. LEO JOY). This CANCER guy seems so attractive to me and he’s interested in him and I going out to the movies, traveling, and just hang out on the weekend (e.g. partying or just having fun). I love a lot of sex with 1 partner, and hopefully in 30 – 45 days after getting to know each other, get tested for sexual transmitted diseases, and etc. We can make A LOT love making(Sex is not allowed, and yet MAKING LOVE IS ONLY ALLOWED with ORAL SEX). I love having fun and just been me and CANCERS just themselves. I do prefer ONLY LEOS AND CANCERS…..”ha..ha..ha!!!!!”

I have known my cancer male (ex since last week)for about 5 years, he has always worked away from our home area but when he has been at the local, our eyes have always met from afar. During last December we finally got together and shared the most amazing times ever. He had told me he liked me for ages. His work grew hard to deal with as he’s following a massive dream and then he lost a family member. He then was moody around me and started pushing me away after being completely obsessed with me. I couldn’t understand how he could love me like crazy then just finish with me for his work. We connected on so many levels and I really believed he was the one for me, I still do. So here’s hoping!

I’m a Leo with Sagittarius rising and Cancer moon. I’ve known this Cancer for a while. He’s my sister’s friend. I never really thought about him until yesterday though. I’m only 17 and not yet comfortable with sex, but it seems that nowadays everyone else is. Every guy that I’m usually interested in (mostly Aries guys) are wild, sexual, outgoing etc. but I’m realizing that that isn’t what I want right now. I’m also strangely attracted to Pisces men as well. But as for this Cancer, he seems so… innocent. Not in a bad way though. I think it’s very cute. My sister told me he had one girlfriend before who broke his heart and hasn’t even shown interest in anyone ever since. I’m not sure if I’m looking for something serious, but something meaningful instead of a hookup with a sex crazed Aries man sounds wonderful. My only fear is that he’s not interested, and going directly to him to be rejected would kill my pride and my ego, which I’m sure all Leos can understand. Also, his birthday is the 20th of July, so he may be a cusp. Any tips on how to approach this man?

Ego and pride are worst enemies of Love. You cannot experience best possible Love in presence of Ego and Pride.

I would suggest just be friends and share a good share of fun and laughter with him, build trust and easiness.
