Cancer is represented by the Crab and his elemental sign is water. Men born under the Cancer sign are known to be emotional, highly intuitive, and nurturing.

Here are some other personality traits of a Cancer man.

This is the most noteworthy personality trait of a Cancer man. It may be difficult to connect with him at first, but once you get him out of his shell, you'll have his commitment forever. Just be patient because it doesn't happen fast, it takes time. If you gain his trust he'll have your back no matter what. His ability to empathize is what makes him a loyal partner.

Like Crabs, Cancer men rely more on their intuition than on their practical sense of judgment. This skill comes handy when someone wants to deceive them, it gives them a sense of security. A Cancer man can make decisions fast and effectively based on his intuition, so don't try to lie to him or fake something because he'll see right through you.

Cancers are extremely protective of their loved ones. Family and friends are deeply cherished by them and they go to extremes (sometimes) to protect them. Home is where a Cancer man feels more at peace so he will protect it and everyone inside it. This personality trait can be overwhelming sometimes but it comes from a place of love and a truly devoted heart.

Cancers are kind, caring, and incredibly nurturing because they have an emotional personality. If you happen to be the romantic partner of a cancer man you've got yourself a very generous man by your side, you just have to reciprocate to make him happy.

Due to the complexity of their emotions, Cancers can be moody. The changes from extremely happy to extremely sad happen fast. If he feels uncomfortable or upset he'll retreat into his shell and you'll have to be patient and prepared for all the mood swinging.
