How Does a Cancer Man Test You?

Updated July 25, 2024

If a Cancer man is testing you, it means he’s starting to get serious about you. This is usually a good sign!

A Cancer man isn’t testing you to be manipulative. He wants to make sure that you two will be a good match for one another.

How does a Cancer man test you? Many of his tests are designed to see how compatible you two might be in the long term. He wants to be sure about you before committing.

A Cancer man who has been jilted in the past might test you more than one who is new to relationships. He will want to ensure that you’re an honest person who is compatible with him long-term.

Don’t be offended if you think a Cancer man is testing you. He might be trying to protect himself by ensuring you’re the one for him.

Introduces You To His Friends

When a Cancer man is testing the waters in a relationship, he might introduce his potential partner to his friends to see what they think.

A Cancer man will not wait to introduce you to his friends until things are serious. He might do so early on in the relationship or before things are “official” between you.

Your Cancer man will do this because he wants to see how well you blend in with the other people he loves.

Friends are important to a Cancer man. They are often like family to him, and they will be around often even if he starts dating you seriously.

If you don’t get along with his friends, your Cancer man might reconsider your relationship. You don’t have to be best friends with everyone, but he would like it if you could be civil with one another.

Is your Cancer man not communicating with you? Here's the trick to reel your Cancer back in.

Tests Your Honesty

Will a Cancer man test you before committing to a relationship with you? Not all will. A Cancer man who has been burnt in the past will, though.

One thing a Cancer man will test is your honesty. He might not set up elaborate schemes to catch you in a lie, but he will be on the lookout for any dishonesty from you.

How does a Cancer man test you to see if you are an honest person? Most of what he does is simple observation and listening.

Your Cancer man will pay attention to what you say to him. He will remember when you tell him things about yourself.

The best way to pass this test is to be honest! There is no reason to lie to your Cancer man. He will find out you’re being dishonest sooner rather than later.

Asks You Out Often

When a Cancer man likes you, he will want to see you often! Frequently asking you out can be a test, but he will only do this if he genuinely wants to see you.

Cancer men like a lot of quality time with their loved ones. They can get a reputation for being clingy because of this.

Your Cancer man will understand if you can’t hang out with him constantly. He doesn’t expect you to be with him 24/7. However, he will notice if you never seem to have time for him.

A Cancer man doesn’t want a partner who is never available. He wants someone who will make time for him. If you want a serious relationship with your Cancer man, try to find time in your schedule to spend time with him.

The simple secrets you can use to seduce and keep your Cancer man (they work like magic)

Sees How You Treat Others

A Cancer man’s “mind games” don’t tend to be overly elaborate. Most of his tests couldn’t even truly be considered mind games!

A Cancer man will test you by seeing how you treat others. He wants a partner who is kind and compassionate.

Your Cancer man might ask mutual friends how you treat them. He may also ask his friends and family how you treat them when he’s not around.

He will also observe your regular interactions with other people. Your Cancer man will pay attention to how you treat the waitstaff when you two go out to dinner.

Talks About Family

Family is extremely important to a Cancer man. If you commit to a relationship with him, you will likely spend a lot of time with his family.

Your Cancer man wants to see how important family is to you. He will talk about his family, but he will also ask about yours.

He won’t judge you for not having a close relationship with your family. There are plenty of valid reasons why you might not. You can show him that family is important to you by being kind to his family.

Your Cancer man might also bring up wanting to have children. Be honest with him about whether or not you want them.

A tiny trick to snatch your Cancer man's heart?... even if he's cold and distant...

Goes To You For Support

One of the signs a Cancer man has feelings for you is that he will rely on you for emotional support. This can also be how he tests you at the beginning of your relationship.

Cancer men are highly emotional people. They are used to providing support for their loved ones, and they need partners who can provide just as much support for them.

If your Cancer man goes to you about a problem, he is showing he’s at least starting to trust you. Whether or not he is testing you, try to give him the support he needs.

When you cannot give support, you need to tell him why. He will understand if you’re unable to because you’re ill or already burnt out. Your Cancer man might decide you two aren’t suitable for one another if you’re constantly unwilling to give him support, though.

Talks About The Future

A Cancer man in love will likely have dreams of your future together. One of the ways he will test how serious you are is by talking about these dreams.

Your Cancer man will be open and honest about what he imagines for the future. If he wants to get married, he will talk about that. If he wants children, he’ll be open about that as well.

When he talks about the future, your Cancer man is looking to see if you have similar dreams. He also wants to see how you react to being mentioned in his plans.

It will likely be a problem if you two have very different future plans. For example, if you never want children and he does, that’s a sign you two might be incompatible.

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

Asks About Your Passions

A Cancer man will likely ask you about your passions as you two get to know one another. He is genuinely interested in what they are, but asking may also be a test.

Your Cancer man wants to see how well your passions and desires align with his own.

This can go hand-in-hand with seeing how well your plans align with his. If you two want very different things in life, that might signify that you’re not the one for him.

A Cancer man isn’t necessarily looking for someone who is highly ambitious. He might not care about what your specific passions are. He is just looking to see that you have passions in life, and he wants to know if they are compatible with his.

Gives You Gifts

Many Cancer men are generous. They don’t always display this generosity with material gifts, but a Cancer man might do this now and then.

Gift-giving can be a way of testing you. Your Cancer man might want to test your intentions and make sure you are with him for the right reasons.

Your Cancer man will gladly give you everything you need. He wants a reciprocal relationship, though! He doesn’t want to be the only one giving.

He will notice if you seem ungrateful any time he gives you something. He will also notice if you constantly ask him for monetary gifts and never give him anything in return.

As long as you don’t expect constant gifts and you always show appreciation, you will be able to pass this “test.”

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

Tests Your Emotional Availability

What do you do when a Cancer man ignores you? Reach out and let him know you’re there if he needs to talk. This will show him that you’re emotionally available and care about him.

If you want a good relationship with a Cancer man, you need to be emotionally available. He can be patient if that is something you’re working on, but you need to make an effort!

Don’t shut your Cancer man down if he wants to talk about his feelings. Learn how to listen to him and support him.

You will need to learn how to be vulnerable as well. Your Cancer man wants to feel a strong emotional connection with his partner. If you are entirely closed-off and emotionally unavailable, he can’t establish that connection.

You might be confused by a Cancer man’s emotional displays if you’re a more detached person. You will need to learn to deal with these and learn how to be more emotional if you want a happy relationship with him.
