Cancer and Aquarius- Compatible?

Question

I am a Cancer my boyfriend is Aquarius. We have been together for 5 years but I always feel like he isn't quite "with me". Seems like he'd rather hang out with friends or family. Love him- but have I wasted enough time?

Answer 1

I was only with my ex-Aqua for about five months or so, when I realized that we just wanted different things out of life, i made him feel claustorphobic and my always needing reassurance of his love for me drove him crazy.  I am a Cancer also!

Answer 2

Ignore astrology and look at personality. Same with religion. I'm Catholic, and if a smoking hot chick with a great personality came onto me and she happened to be a Jew, would I care? NO

Answer 3

technicaly in astrology, ur not very compatible. but it shouldn't truly matter that much, u should look at if u truly think ur compatible, but from the way ur saying i think he seems as tho he is.... perhaps..... comfortable with you enough that he thinks that he can do what he is doing..... or there might other reasons. anyways, astrology isnt an exact matter. umm... my friend got a degree in it, she says that u both need to adjust ur life styles a little, as simply being cancer and aquarius, but since u've been together for 5 years..... depending on ur age, if he doesnt drop the question and hand u a ring, then i would drop him. but thats just me. talk to HIM about it. maybe you can come to a mor true answer.

Answer 4

I (a cancer) was with my ex-fiancee (an aquarius) for almost 4 years.  We really did love each other... but we just were TOO different.  I wanted to spend every waking moment with him (as us clingy cancers do) and he wanted to always have his friends around, or be doing SOMETHING.  I was too smothering for his free-spirit.  

Astrology aside, I really wanted to marry him and spend the rest of my life with him, and even though we weren't "compatible," I was determined to make it work... until he decided he wanted to cheat... A LOT... and lie ALL THE TIME.

After studying more astrology since then, I personally feel that it can give us quite a bit of insight when it comes to understanding people.  

So, while you may not be "compatible," it doesn't necessarily mean you shouldn't be together.  Just keep in mind, that for a happy relationship, it will require a lot of work, on both your parts.  Good luck!

Answer 5

You can't determine compatibility just based on sun signs. You should get a full chart done for both you and your boyfriend. You can get a totally FREE one at

If your sun signs are incompatible, but your other signs are compatible then you have a better chance.

Remember though, astrology can only tell you what factors you are predisposed to (your Aquarius is probably not as emotional as you would like....but this is something that can be worked on even if it doesn't come naturally.)

Obviously two Cancers are going to be pretty compatible because they are "naturally" similar. But that doesn't mean that it will work, only that they have some things going in their favor. The best thing you can do is work on communication skills. This is good for ANY sign!

Answer 6

Usually the thing with Cancers is, It can be one thing we really like about a person and we can catch feelings like, if he's cute but stupid or maybe an *** we can deal with it. Aquarius men are moody and can be a little hard to deal with at times. But so are we. When you get tired you'll dismiss his behind before he can count to three.
