Cancer, You’re About to Fall in Love — And Who It Is Will Shock You

Cancer usually spots trouble from three blocks away, yet love tends to sneak in through the kitchen window while they are busy feeding everyone else.

They don’t trigger your savior complex, which means your usual radar doesn’t even register them as a potential partner. That is exactly why they are going to bypass every wall you built. By the time you realize they aren’t trying to earn your affection through suffering, you will already be making them coffee in your favorite mug.
