1
Seek out pack rats. Cancers form emotional bonds with everything that crosses their paths. Often unable to throw anything away, they can frequently be found hoarding such valuable treasures as a pair of gym shorts from junior high.
-
2
Notice those who have a strong relationship with their parents and immediate family. A friend who places a high value on familial bonds is likely to have been born under the sign of Cancer.
-
3
Look for highly volatile emotions ranging from impenetrable sadness to overwhelming joy. Cancers wear their hearts on their sleeves, and their emotions can change from one moment to the next.
-
4
Watch for poets, novelists and musicians. These are the types of professions that Cancers gravitate toward.
-
5
Think about acquaintances that typically spend their time at home. Cancers love to be within the secure boundaries of their own abode, and can often be found nestled under the covers reading a favorite novel.
-
6
Focus on those who have chosen professions as caretakers, nurses or nannies. Cancers feel an innate need to coddle those around them and provide the security that they themselves desire.

Tips & Warnings
Cancers are most compatibly paired with people born under the signs of Virgo, Scorpio, Pisces and Taurus.
If a Cancer friend of yours disappears for a few days at a time, do not be alarmed. These introspective beings often feel the need to burrow into a dark corner and be alone once in a while.
Be careful of the dynamic nature of the Cancer's emotions. Most of us tend to take on the emotions that Cancers display without even knowing it.

I think cancers can be over-protective, and also even though they're very emotional they can't express those emotions. I'm a gemini and I can't seem to get inside the shell of some friends and family that are of this sign. It's a bit frustating. -

Cancers are the "Charlie Brown" of the zodiac. These nice guys and gals prefer to utilize charm and sweetness to win their way. We are extremely intense, secretive (it's really self-protectiveness) since we fear rejection, fiercely loyal and compassionate. We baby our friends and loved ones. Our hearts are tough to win over, but easily broken once given. Remember to always treat us with kindness and tenderness. We have long memories and never forget a kindness bestowed upon us. This is how you win our love, friendship and affection. After winning our affections, you will be babied, coddled and adored by your darling Cancer. Just never deliberately hurt us or we will never forgive you.

If not at home you'll always find them somewhere they're comfortable. With Leos they will feel a sense of security (possibly romance), get along well with Libras once they find trust, become friends with Taurus instantly because of their similarities, feel fascination and intrigue alongside an Aquarius, enjoy (but also quarrel with from time to time) a demanding Pisces, enjoy the presence of the Virgo, need the organization and sarcasm of a Capricorn in friendship, enjoy the calm intellectual Sagittarius, and like the sympathy of the Scorpio character. They find the outgoing Gemini interesting, have a great time with the full-of-personality Aries. They are people that are hard to get to know at first, and are quite suspicious and reserved when first meeting someone, but once they get to know them become the best of friends! If they find trust, compassion, challenges, security, protection, and true friendship, the secret side unveiled is both thrilling and of great interest. But, if their heart is broken once, it is often for life. For these people, very fond of the past and memories, open-minded and very deep, are hard at forgiving or beginning a serious relationship. They like having fun, as cardinal signs working, and new ideas, and are always more knowledge. It is virtually impossible to get bored with them, and they can easily convert to progressive, new ways of thinking and being. This makes them sometimes lunatic, but of course this depends on the individual in question.
