admiration, loyalty, security
From their first encounter, Taurus and Cancer are hopelessly attracted to each other. Cancer is charmed by Taurus' sweetness and intuition; they represent Cancer's ideal partner. The water sign appreciates Taurus' personality, the depth of their intelligence, their delicacy and the way they value Cancer. Cancer quickly starts thinking about a future and a family with Taurus.
For their part, Taurus is touched by Cancer's gentleness and fragility. When they are with Cancer, Taurus has the impression of being considered almost a living god, they love being reassured and spoiled by the water sign. The only thing that clashes is that Taurus is very possessive.
They need to be certain Cancer really belongs to them, but the water sign needs to keep a little of their independence and should consider that from the beginning. Otherwise, they may be suffocated by the earth sign.
Taurus is very faithful and sincere with Cancer; there is no risk of deception because in their relationship Taurus seeks stability and security above all. They are a couple who can live in harmony for very long years even if concessions have to be made, as in most love stories.

Although they may not always seem so, Taurus is just as emotional as Cancer, they just display it differently. The water sign listens to their feelings and likes to take care of the earth sign. For their part, Taurus like to show their love through physical tenderness and material security. Taurus enjoys being Cancer's rock as Cancer often lacks self-confidence.
In terms of communication, they have a lot in common and against all the odds will manage to talk about their relationship, even though neither are great talkers. They each take the time to analyze the other's words or silence. Typically, their favorite topics are love, children or their homes. Whatever happens, they always talk to each other calmly in order to foster mutual understanding within their relationship.
When Taurus and Cancer begin a relationship together, they always rely on their feelings to know if they can trust each other. It's almost a matter of using their sixth sense, as they intuitively know whether honesty is the order of the day between them or not. In fact, they're so connected that they can't hide much. Therefore, they have almost total confidence in each other, and it would take an exceptional event for this faith to be broken.
If there were proven infidelity, their couple would not survive it and it is, in any case, excessively rare between these two signs. Everything that matters to them revolves around their love story, their offspring and their home. Third parties have no place in the middle of this well-matched duo. When you are told that they only have eyes for each other, it's no lie!
Taurus and Cancer are well-balanced when it comes to their intimate desires. These two signs are both quite calm and neither feels the need for burning passion under the sheets. For them the most important part of their sex life is to create physical and psychological intimacy. They are therefore very fond of lots of foreplay. When they are in public, they do not like to give or receive demonstrations of affection. On the other hand, when they find themselves alone, they let go completely and are difficult to separate.
Both Taurus and Cancer believe it's important to know their partner well in order to be able to anticipate their desires and thus be able to offer each other pleasure. In their couple, it is often Taurus who leads the dance and who is the most dominant. Moreover, this does not seem to bother Cancer who will join in without resisting for a moment.
A Taurus man with a Cancer woman: these two have many things in common, so they are a very complementary couple. Mr Taurus and Miss Cancer do everything they can to live together in understanding, serenity and prosperity. Compared to Mr Taurus, Miss Cancer is very gentle and much more emotionally fragile than her companion. This is why she appreciates being able to rely on the stable and faithful side of the earth sign. They can lead a long and happy life together as long as they remain open to the outside world and don't retreat too much into their own little bubble.
A Taurus woman with a Cancer man: here too, Cancer and Taurus have character traits that are very similar. Both are very focused on love, the family and their home. Mr Cancer is very conservative, and he is very keen on harmony in his family. For her part, Miss Taurus responds very well to his hopes because he is looking for a form of maternal tenderness in her. They get along so well that they almost never argue; the strength of their love allows them to overcome all the obstacles that may arise in their way.
At work, Taurus and Cancer are not as compatible as they are in love. Not that it is impossible for them to work together, but they each have a very particular way of behaving that can annoy the other.
Cancer likes to dream and spends a lot of time in their world of illusions, while Taurus is very rooted in reality and has a clear and rational way of thinking. The earth sign reflects on things for a long time and is slow to move, which can annoy Cancer who is much more active. If there are mistakes at work, mostly Taurus and Cancer don't shout about them, they prefer a more benevolent approach. Generally, Cancer brings their lively creative side to their projects while Taurus is more focused on planning and organizing tasks that come out of the water sign's ideas. Because Cancer is very sensitive, they need to be able to rely on solid people like Taurus to be able to assert themselves at work.
If Cancer is the boss, Taurus will find it hard working under the water sign because they feel Cancer is too airy fairy, lacks organization and tends to lack concentration. If Taurus is the boss, they appreciate Cancer's creative side, especially when it is not too quirky. On the other hand, the earth sign has much more difficulty managing Cancer's lack of organization.

Taurus and Cancer make good friends because they have many things in common. They could well have passions, sports or hobbies that will lead them to spend time together. Generally, because they understand each other well and have the same way of approaching life, their friendship will last. Nevertheless, this does not exclude temporary bumps along the way because Taurus is particularly good at holding grudges about small mistakes and Cancer quickly retreats into their shell when they feel offended. If neither of them decides to take the first step to make a truce, talk to each other and resolve the conflict, it may take a while before they speak again.
Finally, friendship between Taurus and Cancer is likely to last for a very long time provided they do not meet too often. They have enough differences and loyalty to care about each other, but perhaps not as much affinity as it would take to keep them together over a long period of time without arguing. They must therefore find the right dosage and the right distance in their exchanges.
If they can do that, they will only see the positive aspects of their relationship and their differences will be ignored in the joy of reunion. What works very well between them is written communication. They will often write very long messages to tell each other about their daily lives.

Taurus and Cancer live life at more or less the same rhythm and get along well in many areas. They are both very attached to family values and the notion of security. In fact, these two signs love family reunions and extended meals. In short, taking care of their clan is their vocation. It's obvious Taurus and Cancer should marry each other! They are stable, faithful and their relationship will grow with the years. Each knows what the other likes or hates, what their priorities are and what their life goals are. Thus, family life between the earth sign and the water sign is very quiet and reasonable. Conflicts between them are rare and, if they do occur, they are resolved quickly. The only point of concern could be the jealousy and possessiveness both are likely to feel because these emotions are most often unfounded.
Taurus can sometimes use harsh words with Cancer and hurt them without really meaning to. The water sign is not so easy to live with either because they have frequent mood swings that can cause Taurus to lose their cool. Despite everything, this duo works well, one could even say that it is almost indestructible.
