10 Tips to Hurt Cancer Man – He Might Not Recover!

Cancer men are incredibly sensitive. Cancer is a water sign, so people born under this sign have strong emotions that run deep.

You can hurt a Cancer man’s feelings even if you’re not trying to. If you are intentionally trying to hurt him, be careful! You might do more damage than you intend to.

You’ll hurt a Cancer man if you play on his insecurities, ridicule him, or spill his secrets. He might forgive you, especially if you made an honest mistake. Even he will run out of forgiveness eventually, though.

1. Play on His Insecurities

If you want to know how to hurt a Cancer man, play on his insecurities. If you poke fun at the things he’s already insecure about or do something that play right into his fears, he’ll be hurt.

Cancer men can be incredibly insecure. Many of them are afraid of being abandoned by the people they love. They may also worry they aren’t good enough for their loved ones or have insecurities about their looks.

If you know that your Cancer man has specific insecurities, and you play on those, you’ll hurt him. If you pick at the parts of his appearance he’s insecure about, he’ll be upset.

If you make a Cancer man feel like his fears are rational, he’ll be incredibly hurt by that. If you make fun of him or judge him for his insecurities instead of reassuring him, you’ll hurt him deeply.

2. Spill His Secrets

If a Cancer man tells you a secret, he’ll expect you to keep it. If you tell it to someone else, he’ll be incredibly hurt! This will violate his trust, especially if you do it on purpose.

If you don’t want to hurt your Cancer man, check with him before telling anyone else his personal details. If you’re unsure about something, ask him if it’s supposed to be a secret.

Be careful when you hurt a Cancer man. He might forgive you for accidentally sharing a secret, especially if you typically treat him well. If you start spilling all his secrets, he’ll stop trusting you.

Don’t do this to get petty revenge unless you’re ready to ruin your relationship. Spilling a Cancer man’s secrets is a big deal! You’ll hurt him, and he won’t get over that easily.

3. Insult His Family

How does a Cancer man act when hurt? If you hurt his feelings, he might ignore it. He may forgive you, especially if you aren’t doing it on purpose. If you insult his loved ones, though, he won’t be as forgiving.

Insulting a Cancer man’s family will hurt his feelings. If you’re someone he loves and trusts, but you’re rude to other people he cares about, that will upset him!

Your Cancer man might understand if you genuinely don’t get along with certain members of his family, especially if you try to be nice. If you are constantly insulting the people he loves, though, he’ll be hurt.

If your intention is not to hurt your Cancer man, be kind to his family and friends. Even if you don’t like them, keep things cordial. Insulting them will upset your Cancer man.

4. Be Unsupportive

If you want to know how to hurt a Cancer man emotionally, be unsupportive. If he needs emotional support, ignore him. If he’s feeling discouraged or like he can’t reach his goals, don’t offer the support he needs.

If a Cancer man cares about you and is always supporting you, he’ll be hurt if you never offer any support in return. He might not always ask for it, but he’ll be upset that you don’t offer it regardless.

It will upset a Cancer man if he talks about his goals and you’re dismissive. If you tell him his dreams are unrealistic or ignore him when he’s excited about something, he’ll think you’re unsupportive.

If you are never there to support a Cancer man when he needs you, he’ll start to believe you don’t care about him. That will hurt him more than anything else.

5. Ridicule Him

If you ridicule a Cancer man and insult him, you’ll hurt his feelings. This is especially true if you pick at things he’s already insecure about.

It’s easy to accidentally hurt a Cancer man’s feelings by teasing him. You might think something is light-hearted and joking, but he’ll think you’re ridiculing and making fun of him.

How do Cancer men handle conflict? Many Cancer men are non-confrontational. If you ridicule a Cancer man, he’ll be hurt! He won’t always call you out or say you’ve hurt his feelings, though.

If you don’t want to hurt your Cancer man, be mindful of what you say to him. Be kind, and don’t make fun of him, even if you genuinely think it’s all in good fun. Ridiculing him, whether you’re being serious or not, will hurt him.

This magic will make your Cancer man want a relationship with you.

6. Ignore Him

Ignoring a Cancer man will hurt him. Cancer men need quality time with the people they care about. They need attention from them, too. It will hurt if the people he loves are ignoring him.

If you genuinely need space or are busy, communicate that to your Cancer man. Otherwise, he’ll assume you’re ignoring him. That will hurt his feelings, especially if he has no idea what he did wrong.

When a Cancer man is upset already and you ignore his feelings, that will hurt him even more! If you brush your Cancer man aside and leave him to deal with everyone on his own, he’ll be deeply hurt.

If you don’t want to hurt your Cancer man, pay attention to him. Actively listen when he’s talking and give him the time and attention he needs.

7. Betray His Trust

A Cancer man is emotional and sensitive. He can be a forgiving person, but there are certain things that even he can’t forgive easily. If you betray his trust, it will take a long time to earn it back.

A Cancer man won’t recover any time soon if his partner cheats on him. That will be the ultimate betrayal of trust, and his relationship probably won’t be able to come back from that.

Betraying his trust in minor ways will deeply hurt a Cancer man, too. If you break a promise to him, he’ll be upset. It will be difficult for him to deal with if the people he loves constantly disappoint him.

If your Cancer man trusts you, and you violate that trust in any way, he’ll be devastated. It will likely ruin your relationship if you continuously betray his trust.

8. Make Him Jealous

If you purposely try to make your Cancer man jealous, you’ll hurt his feelings. Whatever you do to make him jealous will upset him, but he’ll also be hurt that you would treat him that way intentionally.

You’ll make your Cancer man sad if he knows that you’re trying to make him jealous on purpose. He has a jealous side, but it’s not something he enjoys expressing!

Your Cancer man will be hurt if you flirt with someone else in front of him or compare him to an ex or male friend of yours. He’ll feel jealous, and he’ll be hurt that you would be so cruel to him.

Even if your attempts to make him jealous don’t bring out his jealous side, your Cancer man will wonder why you’re trying to make him feel that way in the first place. He won’t like that you’re trying to toy with his emotions.

9. Abandon Him

A Cancer man’s weakness is often his fear of abandonment. He, sometimes irrationally, is convinced that everyone he loves will leave him eventually. If you do abandon him or make him feel like you will, he’ll be incredibly hurt.

Your Cancer man will be devastated if you leave him when he needs you the most. If you abandon him when he’s sick or going through a hard time, he won’t recover from that.

A Cancer man will likely feel like you’ve abandoned him if you break up with him. He’ll wonder why you didn’t try harder to keep things together. Abandoning him will make him feel unlovable, and he won’t get over that any time soon.

Distancing yourself from a Cancer man will hurt his feelings, whether you mean for it to or not. If you start pushing away a Cancer man who loves you, he’ll be upset.

If your intention is not to hurt your Cancer man, don’t push him away when you’re in a bad mood. Instead, talk to him. Go to him for support and explain what’s going on so he can help you.

If you constantly push a Cancer man away when he reaches out, he’ll be hurt. He’ll feel like you don’t trust him, and he will start to think that he’s done something to deserve this.
