Are Cancer Men Faithful?

Updated September 28, 2024

Cancers are some of the most committed and loyal human beings around, so finding a faithful Cancer man is very easy.

While they are not perfect by any standards, the general nature of a Cancer man makes infidelity very unlikely.

In fact, they are often the exact opposite; over-committing or holding on tight even when a relationship is fading fast. Cancers are sensitive and emotional, and they often fall fast.

There’s nothing wrong with loyalty and commitment, of course, and there’s no doubt these qualities help make Cancer men so trustworthy.

Don’t be tempted to take advantage, though, or you’ll see the dark side of a Cancer male.

As a water sign, the emotional Cancerian is known for crying rivers of tears, but his emotions can be as fickle as the ocean itself. If neglected, he can quickly turn his tide of love around.

Loyal

One personality trait that helps make a Cancer man faithful is his well-developed sense of loyalty. This characteristic applies to all parts of his life and underpins his approach to personal relationships.

Cancer men are loyal to their employers and colleagues, their family and friends, the causes they support, and of course, to the women they love.

Whatever stage your relationship has reached, you can rely on him to support you.

The Moon is Cancer’s ruling planet. We can assume that plenty of its feminine, caring, emotional influence strongly affects and shapes Cancer men’s behavior. After all, loyalty is a behavior based on trust, nurturing, and respect.

Sensitive

As we know, most Cancer males are considered sensitive; it is natural to wonder if Cancer men are shy too. However, these traits are quite different in how they affect behavior and how they shape attitude.

Shyness is a condition where someone really wants social interaction but cannot manage it for various reasons. It’s linked to anxiety and is usually a behavior learned during a child’s early years.

Sensitivity is another thing altogether. Cancers are sensitive because they find it easy to tune in to other people’s moods. They care very much for others, so they easily pick up on second-hand pain and anxiety.

Faithfulness is the default setting for a Cancer man’s behavior when he’s in love. However, if a Cancer man is done with you, it could well be his lack of sensitivity that’s the giveaway sign.

If he picks up bad vibes, a Cancer has a hard shell he can retreat into. Feeling emotions at such a high level makes Cancerians pretty much all or nothing kind of guys.

Committed

Cancer men have no issues with commitment, whether that’s for the long or the short term. As a sensitive and wary sign, Cancers don’t jump straight into anything rashly.

However, they always have their mind on the end goal, which is dedicating themselves to another.

This level of intensity makes infidelity an unthinkable prospect, so long as these feelings are mutual.

His willingness to commit is always one of the signs a Cancer man has feelings for you, but he needs to be sure his devotion is returned.

This expectation is where Cancer males can run into trouble. As water signs, Cancers are wired to be wary, and they can sometimes be over-cautious. If they commit too quickly, Cancer men may struggle to trust their good fortune.

This suspicion can lead to a Cancer man picking over everything his lover says. He may even take things one step further and undertake complex research in his hunt for evidence of a problem.

It’s not that Cancer men actively want their partner to have a closet full of skeletons. They simply struggle at times to believe someone great can also be genuine.

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

Empathetic

To cheat on a life partner means being at least a little cold, calculating, selfish, and insensitive.

Thankfully, few Cancers have a set of these negative qualities in their emotional toolbox. In reality, Cancer men are pretty much the exact opposite.

Insecurity could drive you crazy looking out for signs a Cancer man is playing you, but why waste your time and energy? As one of the most empathetic zodiac sun signs, super-sensitive Cancers are not built to cheat.

When a person is empathetic, the wave of emotions they experience from others can be pretty challenging. This sometimes makes life challenging for Cancer men, especially when it triggers what others see as moody behavior.

On the other hand, being empathetic makes it unlikely that Cancer guys will cheat on you. They are hyper-aware of the hurt his infidelity would cause, to you, himself, and those close to you both as well.

Affectionate

Cancer men are incredibly affectionate, and they make no secret of it once in an established relationship.

What a Cancer male is attracted to is warmth, kindness, and sensitivity. He blooms when with someone who appreciates affection the way he does.

It takes a high level of trust to be established before a Cancer male will let himself become too vulnerable. Building layers of affection are critical to this process, and the bonds formed cement him into his role.

A Cancer man’s need to give and receive affection is non-negotiable in a genuine relationship. This trait is one of the most compelling reasons why being faithful is so important to him.

Some say that Cancer men make the most reliable, caring, and faithful romantic partners of all the zodiac signs.

Perhaps that’s because they embrace affection as something important, to be both embraced, and treasured.

Use these secrets to make your Cancer man love you (they work like magic) →

Emotional

Looking for signs a Cancer man is serious about you? That’s pretty easy, as the emotional Moon rules this water sign. Cancer men are really in touch with both your emotions as well as their own.

When he cares, he’ll be there for you, always ready to laugh and cry as needed. Yes, Cancers are emotionally dependant on their partner, but it’s very much a mutual thing.

When they’ve made an emotional connection, they have all their needs met, so they wouldn’t even consider being unfaithful.

Not all sun signs allow such emotional freedom, but Cancers can make the most of it to enjoy a solid relationship.

Clingy

Cheating on a romantic partner involves several distinct personality traits. To cheat successfully means you must be sneaky, confident, a good liar, and have an independent streak. These are qualities that few Cancer men have.

In fact, they’re almost the exact opposite of their basin nature. Never mind playing hard to get.

Even from the early stages of dating a Cancer man, his clingy nature will be apparent. He’s not ashamed to swerve stereotypical assumptions on how men should behave.

To a Cancer man, being devoted and close to someone is what love is about. Being clingy isn’t a weakness or a sign he doesn’t trust you; it’s simply how he experiences love. It’s also another reason why Cancer men are generally faithful.

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

Dedicated

Did you know that Cancer men are sentimental? They simply love to create memories, celebrate special moments, and display mementos that have meaning to them. This is especially the case around matters of the heart.

When a Cancer man commits to a relationship, he does so with 100% of his mind, spirit, and body.

He’s focused on his partner, devoted to creating the best possible present and future for you both. You could say he invests everything he has, emotionally.

Your Cancer guy dedicates his energy to sustaining a loving and settled relationship, so he has no space in his mind for anyone else.

So long as things are good between you, he wouldn’t even consider being unfaithful – despite the usual ups and downs all couples experience.

Protective

The Cancer man is wired to take good care of everyone, but naturally, his family feature above all others.

Cancers are loyal, nurturing, and very protective. When he’s in love, the emotional Cancer throws everything he has into the ring.

His protective nature is one of several reasons you can be confident your dream Cancerian man won’t cheat on you. In fact, he may sometimes take it too far the other way and seem a bit suffocating.

That’s something you just have to work with because being the first of the zodiac water signs makes Cancers particularly sensitive to the hurts and hazards out there.

As a Cancer man channels all his energy into protecting his relationship, you can relax and enjoy the benefits this brings.

It’s not easy for the crab to expose himself or his loved ones to any kind of danger or vulnerability, so of course, he is faithful.

Romantic

People sometimes worry that Cancer men are players, but that’s rarely the case. Cancerians are simply way too romantic to play around.

Cancer men aren’t addicted to the excitement, drama, and intensity new relationships bring, unlike some signs.

Instead, they much prefer concentrating on one person and making that connection incredibly special. Although Cancers are pretty reserved by nature, they do okay in a close, one-on-one relationship.

As romance means so much to them, Cancer men are unlikely to spoil that for a fling. They already made themselves vulnerable, so risking their secure future is almost unthinkable.
