You must look to the whole chart to see what type of people you are attracted to not just your own sun sign and the other person's sun sign.
What aspects do your Sun, Moon and Ascendent make?
The 1st house is you, your personality and appearance..
The 5th house rules love affairs.
The 7th house rules partnerships.
The 8th house rules sexuality.
What planets are in the above houses and what aspects do they make? What signs are those planets in? What sign is on the cusp of those houses? What elements (fire, earth, air & water) and qualities (cardinal, fixed & mutuable) are involved?
For a female's chart you can look to the Sun and Mars and their aspects for what types of males they are attracted to.
For a male's chart you and look to the Moon and Venus and their aspects for what types of females they are attracted to.

Any sign can be with any other sign. It all depends on your whole chart, based on your DATE, PLACE, EXACT TIME of birth, not just your Sun signs.
Your whole chart then is then compared to the other person's whole chart using a technique called Synastry.
The aspects between each other's planets and points must be looked at and interpreted. The planets in each others houses must be looked at and interpreted, both ways. Affinities must be looked for. It's not simple to a layperson, but it is to people who are educated in Astrology terminology.
Sun sign horoscopes are absolutely inaccurate to determine compatibility between two people.

Gemini and Cancer:
This is a very popular pairing. These two meet and feel destiny from their very first conversation. An intense physical attraction could lead to a sexual relationship or perhaps a marriage. The key to making this work is both must to be willing to forgive and forget. One major problem here is Gemini’s need for space and variety at all times. Gemini is an Air sign. Gemini is also a mutable sign, which means they can multitask task whereas Cancer focuses on one person, place or situation at a time. Cancer may mistake Gemini’s need for outside stimulation as a sign of sexual rejection and Gemini will get irritated by Cancer’s emotional showdown and become agitated quickly. Gemini may flee and will pursue outside interests while Cancer will withdraw and become paranoid. On the flipside, Gemini can banish Cancer blues while Cancer can provide warmth and security to Gemini. Either way, this attraction is if anything, a very good learning experience for Cancer and an emotional experience for Gemini. That’s fine and well but down the line, problems can and will arise. One day, one of you could go to the store and never return. Don’t be surprised, Gemini!
It's a 50% chance!!

I am a gemini female and my first love was a cancerian male. It was a beautiful, loving, agonising, deep, intense and destructive relationship that made me feel like my soul had grown and stretched giving me an emotional maturity of someone 10 years older although we were together collectively for 3 yrs. I was only 20 when I met him and we broke up and got back together 4 times. So our relationship actually stretched over a period of 4 and a half years.
I think Gemini and Cancer do attract each other strongly and that it could definitely work, but there are things that both star signs do that fundamentally do not agree with the other. Cancer is a Water sign, and Gemini is Air, so our tendency to be flighty and distracted can be annoying to a Cancerian who are notoriously moody. It takes a huge amount of maturity and self sacrifice to make a relationship like that work and we were both too young and fucked each other up quite a lot. I was quite flirty and he had trust issues anyway so that didn't help (Cancers are very sensitive as well). In turn that made me jealous of him getting any attention but the love that we had for each other was so deep and intense that I think that if you are really attracted to this guy - to give it a go. If I had met him later in life i think we could still be together although that is speculation. There were other fundamental things that may have meant that it was never meant to be - like our family values. I was the family orientated one and he wasn't which is very atypical for a Cancer sign. But that was down to his family experience. There is a part of me that loves him still and always will. I have never looked back and regretted it at all as I learnt so much from being with him that despite the heartache and the pain, which served only to make the beauty of our relationship more marked and poignant, I will always thank him for teaching me how to forgive and to love.
We still keep in touch by the way, although he has moved to Australia and is married now. So whatever happens, its worth the experience.

When Gemini and Cancer start a relationship is can be hard. Cancer has trouble communicating and is very senstive. Gemini thrives on commuincation. Gemini is an Air Sign and Cancer is a Water Sign. The two Signs can work together and can be a great team. But the problem is learning to cooperate. Cancers are moody and unable to let go so be careful. Sometimes Gemini may be too intellagent for Cancer or be to superficial. Just let your accepting and witty traits shine thourgh.

Its not a match made in heaven, but like any relationship, if you work at it and you think there's something worth working hard for, then do it and don't pay any attention to horoscopes.
Here's what yahoo horoscopes say:
The road looks rocky. Cancer hopes to found a stable, comfortable home for a family; Gemini has an appetite for change, danger, and travel. If he or she feels free to come and go, he or she will appreciate the Crab's profound and genuine feelings; in return he or she provides great cheerfulness. Gemini's sociability helps the Crab out of his shell. But the latter will always be the first to want to go home to bed. If Gemini can squeeze out a bit of stability, and if Cancer can repress his or her tantrums, they'll love each other the way Air mingles with Water.

Cancer activates that part of your solar horoscope associated with money and personal possessions. Your Mercury, com6ined with the Cancer Moon ruler, produces a tendency toward moodiness. Ups and downs in the emotional area are not uncommon in this relationship. An element of self-deception exists. You tend to view Cancer in an idealistic light. When flaws appear, you are surprised. If, however, in the very beginning you are realistic, then the match has a better chance to succeed.
With Cancer, you have a tendency to try many things, to experiment, Eventually, you could come up with a moneymaking plan. It takes Persistence. Cancer provides a steadying influence, especially where funds are concerned. If you are willing to overcome some of your wanderlust, then Cancer could be ideal. Cancer appreciates your sense of humor.
Cancer stimulates you to think, to create. With Cancer, you can make money and valuable contacts. But it takes a mature Cancer --- and a grown-up Gemini - for this relationship to last. Unless a special effort is made, the relationship could evaporate - by mutual consent.
Each is sensitive to the moods of the other. Depression proves catching. Constant dialogue is a necessity. Otherwise, minor misunderstandings grow out of proportion.
Cancer makes you security-conscious. You are less likely to speculate, more apt to go in for solid investments. You add to possessions - you spend to earn. You invest. Cancer helps you to understand land values, real estate. Cancer gives you a sense of pride in ownership.
In all, the relationship represents challenge. The effort could be worthwhile; but success in this association does not come on a silver platter. You must earn it.

No. Gemini girl would definitely dominate a cancer guy. Gemini girls like myself are always without fail neurotic in some way and mad as a bag of monkees - Cancer guys love home and familiar things wheras it takes a Gemini a lot of growing up to settle down and have peace

Gemini & Cancer
When Gemini and Cancer come together in a love affair, it may be a rather curious relationship. Sensitive, emotional Cancer has trouble communicating clearly, but clear communication is what defines Gemini. Gemini's chivalrous nature and silver tongue may encourage the Crab to come out of its shell more quickly than usual; Cancer, in turn, can teach Gemini to slow down and appreciate the world, which the frenetic Twins hardly ever take time to do. If Gemini seems to ignore Cancer or doesn't provide them with as much reassurance and intimacy as Cancer needs, trouble may ensue. These two Signs approach the world in such different manners that they must be able to understand and accept one another's differences.
Cancer is the Sign of home and hearth, while Gemini is the thinker. Gemini can easily slip into the role of Cancer's knight in shining armor; Cancer returns that favor with their characteristic urge to protect the ones they love. Quality of home life is important to Cancer, and Gemini will be spoiled by their Cancer lover's hearty home cooking, soft bed and other creature comforts. Cancer is strongly intuitive and maintains an almost psychic connection with their loved ones, but can tend toward possessiveness and idealization of their Gemini partner. If Gemini just reassures Cancer that they're loved and cherished, all will go smoothly.
Gemini is ruled by the Planet Mercury (Communication) and Cancer is ruled by the Moon (Emotions). Cancer tends to keep their emotions bottled up inside as they have trouble expressing themselves. They envy Geminis their gift of open, clear communication afforded by the influence of Mercury. Gemini, in turn, can benefit from Cancer's intuitive approach, so different from Gemini's bubbly, surface nature; Cancer can teach Gemini to slow down and appreciate life instead of passing by the good things in their rush to get to the next new thing.
Gemini is an Air Sign and Cancer is a Water Sign. If these two Signs can work together they can be a great team; after all, the best decisions are made by incorporating the emotions and the intellect. The trouble for these two lies in learning to cooperate. They come from such opposite points of view that at times it can seem as if they simply have nothing in common. Deep, emotional Cancer can also sometimes dampen Gemini's airy enthusiasm, and light, fast-paced Gemini can leave Cancer feeling ruffled, even tattered. Balance can be achieved if they learn to talk openly with one another.
Gemini is a Mutable Sign and Cancer is a Cardinal Signs. Gemini is flexible, willing to go with the flow and follow another's lead; Cancer is an initiator and likes to provide that lead. Gemini may try to lead by being brave, even confrontational; for it to run smoothly between these two, they both need to learn when to back down and let the other lead the way.
What's the best aspect of the Gemini-Cancer relationship? Once they realize they're allies, they can soar to great heights together. Gemini is always thinking ahead and Cancer is quietly supporting these ideas behind the scenes. Each partner's ability to provide what the other is lacking makes theirs a fulfilling relationship.
