A caring Cancer will appreciate the sensibility of the exacting Virgo.  Here we have a nice blend of water and earth that truly compliment each other.

Most Virgo are well known for being particular and fussy.  These traits are carried out in choosing what type of mate Virgo seeks.  Uncouth behavior is repulsive to them. They prefer one who is conscious of maintaining healthy clean hygiene habits, sensible and hardworking.  One-night-stands definitely do not appeal to them.  Often times they will not take part in dating, and can remain single for quite some time due to their high standards.  Combine this fussiness with the caring Cancer and you have a mate who is willing to cooperate and meet the demands of a Virgo.

Some stressful interaction between these two signs may occur on occasion.  Cancer provides understanding of Virgo’s critical views, but may become intimidated or begin to feel that they are not measuring up enough to suit their mates demanding ways.  Although Cancer is an expert at cooking, fussy Virgo may be hard to please when it comes to their eating habits.  The Virgo digestive system is super sensitive requiring a bland diet.  There are many foods that a Cancer finds delightfully scrumptious, but Virgo cannot handle it.

There is both the positive as well as the negative issues to relating experiences.  On the minus side, Virgo may have to be careful of caustic speech around a Cancer, for Cancer does take everything personally to heart and requires sensitivity.  On the plus side, it is Virgo’s main purpose to give service to others in a helpful manner, and this type of self expression blends well with Cancer’s natural mothering instincts.

Virgo may initially become romantically involved with one of a similar earthly nature, such as a Capricorn, for they are naturally attracted to someone who is similarly solid, sensible and serious minded.  When it comes to the advanced stages of dating, like making a commitment, hey often attract water signs, such as Pisces.  Therefore, a water sign such as Cancer would also fill the bill as Virgo wants someone who is kind and considerate as well.

Take special note that Virgo has a tendency to sacrifice all for their mate when in a committed union.  If Virgo is busy with other work, chores or interests, they can drop what they are doing instantly and rush to the aid of their partner.  Remember Cancer, just keep your kitchen apron on, and be ready to dust, vacuum and clean while the soup simmers.  Virgo demands a tidy home base!
