1. Nostalgia and emotional retention: Cancer men often maintain a nostalgic feeling towards their ex girlfriends, making it difficult for them to immediately detach from their past relationships. They may reserve a special place in their hearts for their ex girlfriends, occasionally recalling the time they spent together, especially those warm and beautiful memories.
2. Caring and protective desire: Even after breaking up, Cancer men may still show concern for their ex girlfriend, especially when they learn that she is facing difficulties or unhappy. They have a strong desire for protection, and even if they are no longer lovers, they may want to provide support and comfort as friends.
3. Handle new relationships with caution: When establishing a relationship with a new partner, Cancer men may be more cautious in dealing with their ex girlfriend to avoid causing discomfort in their current partner. They strive to fully immerse themselves in their current relationship while trying not to leave any illusions or opportunities for their ex to reconcile, in order to maintain emotional clarity and respect.
