Personality

Friendly and Caring
A woman falling under this zodiac sign is attractive with large, expressive eyes. When it comes to the characteristics, the best qualities that can define this zodiac sign is loving and friendly. People who are close to a Cancerian woman will surely understand when I say that she is a caring human being. She can go to any length to help her friend who is in trouble. A Cancerian woman is quite motherly and exudes this motherly nature not only towards her children, but also towards the other people close to her. Listening skills and possessiveness are some of the common traits.

Emotional and Sensitive
Another characteristic is that she is extremely emotional and sensitive. Her decisions, thoughts and actions always have an emotional basis to them. Though you may not realize this trait when you meet her for the first time, once you get to know her more closely you will definitely come to know about this trait of hers. A woman under this sun sign cannot take criticism and once a person has hurt her, she is likely to keep a grudge against him/her forever. Also, she has a good memory and even if you have said something without actually meaning it, she is likely to take it at heart and become touchy.

Loyal Partners
A Cancerian woman is extremely loyal and is dedicated to her partner once in a relationship. She can do anything to make her partner happy and can put his interests and desires in front of her own. However, when in a relationship, she yearns for love and attention. The perfect partner for her is the one who understands her emotional needs and showers her with love and care. Also, she is quite insecure and needs a partner who can provide her with the emotional support in a relationship. She can have a good relationship with men of the zodiac signs like Taurus, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Pisces and Capricorn.

Moody and Intuitive
As I said earlier, she is extremely moody. There are days when she would be right in the center of a group of friends laughing and having fun. However, there are also days when she will retreat into her shell and refuse to socialize. When she is in such a mood, not even close friends and family members will be able to approach her. It is actually quite difficult to guess what is going inside her mind. On the other hand, she is very intuitive and can read the mind of the other person very easily. Hence, a Cancerian woman can be called an agony aunt, as she can coax people to tell their problems and can also help them to find solutions.

Another important trait is that she is quite family oriented and will prefer to stay at home and look after the kids than go and work outside. Though she can be a little difficult to handle during one of her mood swings, you must remember that she is very loving and sensitive, and a little understanding can help you to win her and bring her back from her shell.
