The
Cancer person often makes an admirable friend. The stronger, more vital Cancer type loves
friendship, for they love to give and to serve. The danger of Cancer friendships lies in
their ability to absorb the object of their interest. Such a friendship can become
demanding and too enveloping, so that there is no equality, but rather a burden on one
side and a dead weight on the other. But it has been said that Cancer people of the active
type have a fine capacity for friendship, but he is often very critical in appreciating
the values of friendship.
The vigorous Cancer type is idealistic and inspiring. They draw people to them by
a sensitivity that proclaims itself both willing to give and to receive. They may prove to
be thin skinned and easily insulted, but these people blossom delightfully in an
atmosphere of sympathy and sincere helpfulness. |
