Confused by Taurus man

I am a Scorpio female, 21 and I am in love deeply with a Taurus male, 23. I don't know what it is about him that has me so confused. Maybe it is his ability to work so well with his hands. Or maybe that he is a real man. I do not understand the way he makes me feel. He makes me so angry and I could think that I hate him, but the next day he may call me to see him and I'm right there excited forgetting what I was angry about the day before. I am an idiot for his love. He loves to spend time with his friends, do what men do (whatever that might be) and will put those friends before me. But when we are together the vibe and chemistry there is magnetic. I always seduce him n he admits that he loves to play hard to get. But once we are started he takes control of the sex game. He doesn't stop until he's ready regardless if I beg for him to stop. Omg he is definitely the man of my dreams. We been dealing with each other for almost three years and we both have 1 child with another mate. He thinks I'm crazy, but he doesn't realize that he makes me act this way. I want to do everything for him, but in return will he do the same for me? I know in my heart that he will eventually hurt me, but my love is so strong I just want to experience us being together. I really think that him being hurt by his Childs mother has a big impact on his heart. The bitch cheated on him. I would have never cheated on him. I just want to lay with him every night and marry him. He told me that he is going to marry me. He doesn't even realize I hang on to his every word. I know in my heart that he loves me too. He only shows it when he wants to. He tests me to see my sincerity. And he even saved me one night. Once in a blue he may express his love, only after I told him I hate him and not talk to him for a week or so. He doesn't appreciate me until I'm mad at him n not speaking to him. I don't understand. I just want us to be happy. He is just as complex as I am. And Scorpio women are very complex. He gets mad at the crazy comments I make about him dealing with other women when he does the same to me. He makes smart remarks under his breath that I hear that let's me know he loves me...I feel like a trophy when he is around his friends. I also love how he turns the tables and gets freaky with me instead of playing hard to get. He has a mind control over me and I will kill a bitch for him. So watch out lol....

The REAL side of Taurus Men!
by: Aphrodite Bull

I am a Taurus woman. The men and women posess the same traits. He DOES love you. Tauruses are very shy and introverted. We do a brilliant job at covering it up. Why? Exposing that vulnerable side of ourselves does NOT give us the upper hand. We will keep you at arms length just to keep you on your toes. This stems from completely ignoring you to making you feel like the most important person in the world. This is usually enacted through unexpected sensual kisses, suprised romantic gestures, and putting our hands all over you. Our goal is not to get you to fall in love with us...but to make you fall in love with us AGAIN...and AGAIN..and ALL OVER AGAIN! He may have a secret fear of losing you, or losing his hold over you (since we're posessive by nature).
When he is not around you, or calling you, he will consistently obsess about what you're doing, or who you're doing it with. (It's just not demonstrated in the early stages of courtship). We play it off real well. In laments terms, you may not hear from him in weeks, but during that time he may be checking you out on facebook, or asking people about you. The best way to win them over? Be patient, bold and persistent! Don't let him know that his actions offend you. Disregard it. NEVER EVER try to make this man jealous. He will secretly hold it against you. When it seems like you won him over, he has already decided a long time ago that he wants to spend the rest of his life with you.

Hey There Pieces Girl.
by: Anonymous

Ok....I am a Taurus male and althougth our signs do not rule us or give any insight into personal problems we may have througth bad experiences....

I will say that this whole idea of you txting him and him not answering is SO taurus and you being hurt by it is SO pieces.

We tend to do things like this...even thougth it can be torture for us.

Why?

Because even thougth he may be madly in love with you he needs to know your going to be there for him no matter what - by ignoring you and you chasing him to him it means you wont give up on him. It means you really want him becuase you love him.

On the other hand - if he knows your with someone else at the same time then he may be struggling with that and not answering because Taurus cannot stand being compared to anyone or feeling like they are in competition. Taurus do not do competition - you either love them completely so they can feel secure and stable or you need to leave them alone.

Taurus are usually good at "magic touch" and it goes hand in hand with the desire to be maternal - thats not to say that a Taurus wants to be your dad or anything - its just the way we roll. We want family and we love to nurture and for things to be gentle and calm - so we tend to have a innate ability to touch you deeply with a seemingly simple touch or caress. Before that can become the norm Taurus needs to KNOW that you are not on the fence - you give yourself to a Taurus and they will do anything to see that your safe, secure and loved - and your kids to if you have any.

Good Taurus test - leave them alone in a room with your pet cat or dog and spy on them - take them to a farm and pretend to go do something else but really go where he cant see you but you can see him an watch. A stable Taurus will tend to try to reach out to that animal and will be VERY patient and kind about it. If the animal will not come to them they will respect its boundries and not try to overpower the animal. Be prepared to watch for a while thougth....Taurus are very patient with these sorts of things and animals love them because animals do not trust easily and most animals - even pack animals - mirror the Taurus - they will take all day to come up and say hi and once a Taurus touches the animal the animal is usually won over - trust and a bond is established.

A unhealthy Taurus will let their desire for stability turn into a impatient demand for security - they will corner the animal and force it to be touched - this wont work at all and the unhealthy Taurus will be frustrated by this and lash out. This IS the way they will eventually treat you so dont walk - RUN in the opposite direction. =-)

great stuff! Helps a lot! hope its true!! My Taurus man completely ignores sometimes which drives me nuts : (

Taurus men
by: Anonymous

Yeah...Taurus men can be a challenge due to the lack of apparent communication that many signs perceive Taurus behavior as.

I mean men are bad at talking as it is but Taurus men? Forget it!

They do communicate - but in their own way and its not verbal.

Ever watch the horse whisperer? Or the dog or cat whisperer?

Its all the same stuff - Taurus speak volumes but you have to speak their language which typically has nothing to do with verbal communication.

They look at you and they think to themselves ah....the love of my life how lucky I am! and your lookin at em like....what....what do you want? Say something already.

Some Taurus get hurt by that kinda thing because they think how they feel is so obvious that how could you miss it?

It is not about mind reading either - If your Taurus looks at you for more than a few seconds without saying anything then looks away try going up to them and taking their hand then look them in the eyes for a second or two (no more than that) and kiss them like your on your first date - do NOT say anything at any stage of this.

They will likely stumble out a "what was that for?" Just tell them "I saw the love in your eyes for me and I had to."

Then turn and let go of their hand slowly and gently let your fingertips linger on his for a second as you walk away - and go do something else....might take a hour might take a day but your Taurus will do something sweet for you or will ask you something about you to try to relate to you on a verbal level (they dont want to they just want to return the percieved attempt at understanding) or hug you from behind (that is a big deal to a Taurus when they do that - they are saying they feel comfortable with you and they want to know your safe and that you feel safe with them - so enjoy it when they do and dont assume it means they want anything - if they are doing it for any other reason you will know.

Try it and see. =-)

The hard part....Taurus are stubborn and they see things their way and they tend to see verbal communication beyond a few words as talking just to hear yourself talk. If anyone figures out a way round that one I would love to hear it.

haha i know its totally Pisces of me too do that but i wanted closure and i wasn't going to give up until i got it. like we had a text conversation about our past relationships and all that good stuff. first off we met at the most random place ever we exchanged numbers and all. then like one week after knowing each other we hooked up. at that i was feeling guilty for cheating. and every time we would hang out we would have sex. by far the best sex I've ever had. the more we hung out the more i wanted to be with him. we hit it off right off the beat so it been 4 months since we've each other and it only took me like 3 weeks till i was in love. he told that hes was falling for me but he didn't want to get hurt that's why he pushed me away

so Friday he texted me after like 2 weeks could that be a sign that he still in to me. i really miss him and his company. i just dont want to lose him. rather we stay friends or date in the future. I've never met any one quite like him.

i think me being a Pisces and him being a Taurus. its kinda hard to express how feel towards to each other so we both kinda separated our self from the situation and just ignored it for the time being.

im really going to try your Taurus test and try to rekindle what he had going on

thanks for the advice your a sweetheart Taurus <3

Hey again Pisces Girl
by: Anonymous

Yeah....Taurus dont wanna get hurt I think they feel as deeply as Pisces but again...unless you know what your lookin for the Taurus is just gonna look stone cold or broody or whatever depending on your point of view.

With a "healthy" Taurus if your seeing him and someone else at the same time they are gonna see it as your cheating on them once they get intimate with you...its just the way it is....once a Taurus bonds with you then they dont exactly see you as "theirs" its more like they cant understand why you would want to be with anyone else.....and yeah that means exactly how it sounds - this guy fell for you and now he is not AFRAID of gettin hurt - he IS hurt.

He is SO into you - if he is txting YOU after two weeks of nothing.

Thats why if he passes the Taurus test then you gotta decide if your gonna stay with him or let him go.

The whole "friends" thing Taurus has a really hard time with it - it is likely not to work for either of you - either he gets hurt cause he will think you want him around but arent good enough to commit to - or you might get hurt because he will "shun" you once he realizes friends is all it will be. Remember that Taurus does not form attachments easily and when they do its deep and usually long term. A lot of that stems from the fact that Taurus is actually influenced a lot by Venus which is a feminine sign - thats why a "healthy" Taurus is cautious, sensitive, nurturing,patient and is also where they get their talent for deep unforgettable intimacy. When they touch and feel love they exude a energy that you can feel (and they can too) its soothing and electric all at once.

Rekindling is not necessary - he already made up his mind about you - consistency, patience, and proximity (but not constant proximity - he needs some time to miss you) is all thats needed.

Finally my sweet dear Pisces Girl - I keep stressin "healthy" Taurus because Taurus is infamous for their stubborn streaks and their flashes of anger. Stubborn and seething anger can actually be a great thing believe it or not - when its outlet is someone thats harassing you or doing you wrong in some way a Taurus will be quick to move in to protect their "family" and they will not back down.

I have dealt with "unhealthy" Taurus and it gets ugly when a healthy and unhealthy Taurus go toe to toe and I have seen the fallout that some wonderful girls have suffered at the hands of a broken male Taurus - because if they aint right that protectiveness and stubbornness is turned on you and it can be downright traumatizing or worse.

I dont even know you and my Taurus streak is wanting to make sure you are not with one of my "unhealthy" brothers. Thats Taurus for ya. =-)

Good luck and I wish both of you all the best whatever the outcome.

yes i do believe that he is hurting by the situation. but so i am. rite now im being a sensitive Pisces. i didnt want to hurt him for any matter. he being completely stubborn Taurus. its driving me nuts. i really dont want to let him go.
i just want to talk things over and see where things go. i really want things to work out between us. hes really patient and so i am. i miss his touch and his caress. we have an amazing physical and sexually thing going on for us. yeah maybe your rite. its not rekindling that he needs. he just needs time to think things over.

thank you so much for all your advice.

Oh of course your hurting over all this....I didnt mean to imply you werent and sorry if it came off that way....everything you have said shows me that you are a kind, compassionate, person with a great deal of depth of character and morality. So I would imagine this to be a hard situation for you....I am sorry....life is hard sometimes.

Thank you for sharing with me - it means a lot to me.

I have been with my taurus for 15 years and he is definitely a true taurus male. He possesses all these traits especially possesive and I LOVE IT, he makes me feel so safe and secure and like I am the only one for him, even after all these years. He definitely loves stability and to feel like he is the only one in the world for me, and how could he not be with his gentle,romantic, loving ways. this is definitely a til death do us part, he lets me know this everyday.

Confused and Hurt Capricorn
by: Tia

So Taurus Guy..

I was or still am in love with a Taurus. He was my everything and I swear I would have done anything for him because of all that we have been through together. He was my first for kiss hug and ( red cheeks) sex as well and he knows all of that. I told him my deep and dark secrets. I trusted him and I had faith in him and in us that we would make it as a couple together forever.

Well we dated from Feb 2009 until my birthday (01/01/10) and on my birthday we had a great time and it was just awesome but all while we were dating he kept like just disappering like dropping of the face of the earth and them just reappering I guess. Back in Oct 2009 he told me that he could not be with me because he could not give me what I deserved. That he could not be there evry waking moment like he wanted to be..I told him just as long as I had him in my life he was all I needed and that we could make it work at a couple.. to just TRUST me and we could be together like we had planned forever.

Now what makes me so hurt and confused about him is that he didnt like just break it off like you know " we're done" and blah blah blah but he did the whole diappearing act on me again and next thing I know he has another girlfriend. .he so in love with her and she is just this "Ah-MAZING" woman and what not.. and he made time for her to go out of town with her and everything.. so like when I questioned him on it he goes that she is helping him.. she knows all about me and why he did what he did..

I do have to admit we were like up and down because I had alot of problems going on at home and I was to shy and embarassed to tell him how bad my life was at home.

So now and then I text him just to see how he is doing. I really love him and I even told him that once..not trying to make our converstation awkward even though I did.. I can't help it because I just thought he meant every word and I like confused and hurt about it all

Taurus Ex Male
by: Bella

Taurus's are very tricky. Me (21 F, Scorpio) Him (29 Taurus) Back in September he told me he was no longer in love with me after a 4 year relationship in which is wanted so bad. I dunno, Maybe he became so jaded after all those years... But I was really hurt by this. The thing is; Now Im seeing someone else and he hates it, But I still continue having sex with him. The sex is AMAZING, I just don't know if Im ready to completely break it off with him. Could this JUST be sex and nothing else? Will he ever come back to me or is his mind fully made up?

@Scorpio Female with Taurus Husband
by: Taurus Guy

15 years and still loving it - how great is that?!?!

I always thought Scorpio and Taurus were a amazing combination.

On the one hand you have Scorpio who posses their mate mind body and soul.

On the other hand you have Taurus who owns their mate and wants to protect and nurture.

Both signs are forever signs so this combination can be SOOOOOO amazing....trick is to establish trust and never violate it on either side - Scorpio and Taurus dont handle a breach of trust very well.

So happy for you both!

@Tia
by: Taurus Guy

Capricorn....You know Taurus and Capricorn are supposed to hit off really well long term because they are both earth signs. Both like security etc....

There has to be more to this than I am seeing....you said your relationship was up and down because of things at home...that this other woman knows about you and is helping him and knows why he did what he did.....little nebulous for me but I will guess.

You said...

Back in Oct 2009 he told me that he could not be with me because he could not give me what I deserved. That he could not be there evry waking moment like he wanted to be..I told him just as long as I had him in my life he was all I needed and that we could make it work at a couple.. to just TRUST me and we could be together like we had planned forever.

Allow me to translate....."Your not there for me (or I cant be there) when I need you - so I want out - let me go" He may also feel that the relationship is one sided and he is doing all the nurturing and not being nurtured.

That whole Trust and forever thing...your speaking his language there but something stopped him from believing you.

Taurus prefers "now and forever" as opposed to "someday(s) and forever" anyways. If there was any turbulence that led to him feeling like he could not be there for you when you were in a bad place and especially if you lashed out at him during those times...Taurus would feel confused and injured. Same goes the other way round but Taurus typically will endure not having their needs met if they are feeling like they are nurturing someone else. Stubborn to the point where they will hurt themselves but at some point (varies for everyone) they hit a wall they cant get past.

Ok all you Taurus - confession time....if your in a unstable relationship you stay in the unstable relationship to try and make it work but you keep one eye out for the person who is going to listen to you and most importantly just BE there for you....arent you? And if you do happen to find that person who seems long term and knows how to be with you at times without talking - the other(s) in your life will be dismissed (so you can protect the new relationship) wont they? You feel bad about it - but not bad enough not to do it.

I suspect that might be happening here - but again just a guess. (continued nest post)

@Tia - part 2
by: Anonymous

Taurus can be complicated because they dont typically verbalize their needs and often do things to see what your reaction is so they can find out who the real you is - not who you say you are. If he disappeared and you didnt chase him - he may have felt abandoned - or....he may have been testing this other woman and deciding which to go with (there will be only one typically for Taurus in the end)

Sorry but I think you are torturing yourself (and maybe him) - might be that ambitious and patient streak working against you this time around...great Capricorn qualities and especially when it comes to Taurus (they are usually very patient with each other) but hes gone - sounds like he bonded with another and thats that. Will he respond if you contact him? Probably....because what you two had was likely real and he would have a hard time letting go...he is not likely to show it....to the world it might look like he just dumped you for another woman - for him...he is likely in a lot of pain - maybe even conflicted still - and isnt going to let that show.

Best to leave him alone - move on without him or you will just wind up confusing yourself and him. Remember he is a Taurus there is part of him that wants to love you and nurture you and he likely has to fight that when you contact him.

Sounds like the right signs but the wrong circumstances... =-(

Re: Bella
by: Taurus Guy

Oh Bella....you scorpios both intrigue and frighten me.

Taurus: I dont love you anymore (Translation: Lets see if you love me for real)

Taurus walks away pretends not to look back but does when your not looking. Probably asks around your friends his friends etc...

You get a relationship going with another guy - suddenly Taurus is back in the picture...why? More likely than not he said the words to see if you would abandon him - and when you did (in his eyes) he rushed back when someone else got involved to try and establish that he still owns you.

Scorpios....the sign has a innate need to captivate and then possess their love interests. Taurus has a innate need to draw and then own their love interests.

Sex is amazing? Sure! He is probably using every bit of his taurusness to re-establish that you belong to him. Does he really want you long term? I would say it is likely otherwise he wouldnt bother....he could be shallow but after 4 years Im sure you know if he is or isnt.....if he is then enjoy the sex but break it off when your ready - if he isnt....and you want him...slowly come back to him. Dont do it too fast...you want him to think that he won you over and if its too easy for him then he is going to do this to you again. Oh...if he does pull this again and you do love him and still want him - then give him time to miss you and then make little bits of contact (txt or whatever) and hint (NOT obvious hints) that you still want him. This could be as small as txting him and saying "Hey - hope your doing ok".

He will come around - if not move on but dont let him get away with him rushing in to re-establish himself. Once....ok....he made a mistake....twice? You deserve better than that....dont you?

A day in the life...pt 1
by: Taurus Guy

So - Last week I met somebody....I wasnt sure if they liked me or if they didnt.

I decided to find out....I sent her a email last night and asked her if she remembered me....she said she wasnt sure...I thought she might be playing coy. So I asked her over....I was pretty confident when she txtd me right away saying she was on her way.... =-)

Heres the thing...two weeks ago I had a casual encounter which led to me feeling hurt because lets face it - Taurus usually have a hard time with that - but I was lonely and foolishly thought I could keep it casual. Wrong - ouch...despite all the compliments and invites and things like that it was made very clear this was going nowhere good (for me)...no connection or passion just weird sex. (sorry sex without unbridled freedom of expression is weird). Needless to say I did not nor will not be calling them back. I didnt turn on the magic touch or anything....and I was still invited back....Im like wow is this what people really do? How boring and nasty is this?

Ok - so the nice girl - We havent dated and we werent supposed to hit the bedroom but we were so into each other it couldnt be helped - so we wind up in bed and I couldnt help myself - I felt a deep connection - I turned on the Taurus magic touch and she went near out of her mind before we were even doing anything but touching - and so did I - It was awkward a bit afterwards because it wasnt planned but it was consensual. We just clicked and it happened. She was SO nice and sweet and kind and she liked the way I held her head and stroked her hair at points...a real passionate loving girl who knew how to love and be loved.

My dilemma....I cannot stop thinking about her....I KNOW Im supposed to wait....dont call...but all I want is to see her again....I dont know what sign she is I am privately praying shes a Taurus or a Capricorn....I THINK shes a Capricorn....but....the point is not txting or calling is a minute by minute thing....Im not gonna do it....but I WANT to....

So I find myself analyzing... Taurus....maybe...that was the most incredible experience yet and we didnt even get that deep into it. Her touch was electrifying (first time I ever felt that) and she had me going crazy so I think Taurus (never been with another Taurus)....she is pragmatic and good with money, frugal - almost a miser...so I think Capricorn. Regardless she is very grounded and staid so Earth for sure....and yes I am typing this to keep my mind off of txting her. =-)

I know I wont...not for a few weeks. But it will drive me out of my mind....lol

She is mine already - and I hate it when I have to wait to see my girl again. =-(

A day in the life...pt 2
by: Taurus Guy

Wonder what shes doing....hmmm...and how the heck am I supposed to get anything done with her on my mind. I was walking with her last night and just loving it when people see we were together...she is the most beautiful girl...I just want to take her out and show her off, give her flowers, surprise her anyway I can - make her happy, feel safe and loved, give her the base from which she can succeed and come back to when the day is done and I want her to know that she is mine...totally and completely and I am hers. Two meetings and I would kill anyone who messed with her and gladly take a bullet for her.

Silly Taurus....I dont even know for sure she wants a relationship!
She could have forgotten all about me and is just goin about her day like nothing happened...maybe I will wait for her to contact me....maybe.

You know what she has to be taurus cause she didnt say anything the entire time we were in the bedroom....yup bet you anything.....she was kinda shy but also starightforward despite her shyness....sounds llke Taurus....damn that means we will not hear from each other for weeks. =-)

I feel ya......I have dated this taurus in the past and we ended up hating each other for years! I just happen to see him again recently and the chemistry is still there. I know I care about him and he knows it too but hates to admit that he cares back he has told me he loves me before but only when he is drunk or thinks Im sleepin. I cant stand it and it is prolly going to make me hate him again and tell him to beat it. I cant play these games much longer. I just don't understand y it is so hard for him to let his true feeling out. Its not like I would shoot him down and he knows it. He says he just wants to be single n see other women and thats fine but I think he is lying considering I stay at his house every night and talk to him a few times throughout the day. I never call him unless it is for a reason yet he calls me for nothing all the time. Ugh freakin Bulls oh and the top of the ice burg is his dog is a tarus too and has the same spoiled attitude as his dad. lmao freakin Taurus'

I am a Leo, and I have been talking to a Taurus for about a month now. I have seen him twice. He confuses the crap out of me, because he would text me at least 50 times a day. But in the 4 weeks we’ve been talking, he’s flaked on seeing me 4 times. One of those times he just didn’t even bother to call till early the next morning. After that incident I told him that maybe we should just be friends and nothing more. After that, things changed, we didn’t talk anymore. Now I was getting (if I was lucky) 1 txt msg a day. I realized I didn’t like not talking to him. So I told him that I wanted things back to the way they were, but I didn’t want the issue of not calling and always flaking to arise again. He said he would try harder not to do that next time. There is just something about him that I don’t understand. if this were any other person I would have RAN by now. but I don’t know if he is flaking because he doesn’t want to see me, and if that’s the case why doesn’t he just leave me alone? And the non- communication that will drive me NUTS! I get that men are not good at communicating, but a simple “im not gonna make it” phone call or text would be nice. Were back to txting 50 times a day again, im just waiting for our next meeting to see if he will flake on me. I don’t like that, but what can I do?

I am a male Taurean.. and I think your spot on with everything your saying.. It's almost like your talking about ME in fact haha.. oh.. :)

It's actually kind of refreshing reading something that a woman has written.. It feels nice to be understood. So thank you for spreading the word.. coz i think sometimes Taureans can be very mistaken or misunderstood :)

Peace babe ;)

Met a Taurus 3 months ago. He was all over me took me to dinner and unlike me we spent the night together on first date. It was awesome but part of me was regretting it. He stayed in touch would come over 2-3 times a wk (always for 1 thing)We never spent wkends together or did anything else. I addressed him that it was not a great feeling & kinda felt used. Long story short after on & off not speaking then calling or texting we were together again (again for 1 thing) Yes it was amazing & very additcting, but as a cancer i need more...Had a long convo & all seemed ok till he pulled his dissapearing act once again. Im done...regardless of taurus "type" when you care about someone cut the games & bs and act like a real man. No one should have to deal w/someones issues especially when you have stated it is hurtful! Find someone who cares & is there for you. Had a Libra that was the bestest at that!! I believe our sings are a good description of us. However, if someone has issues, isn't honest and cant be there for you...MOVE ON!! It gets really old

Two days after my last post I told my Taurus that I wanted to see him, but this time I was going to go to him, he said that sounded great! But as I was on my way over there he txt me to tell me not to leave yet, that he was still very busy. I txt and said so you don’t want me to come after all? He said no, I do but Im just going to be home late and that he was going to find out if he could get out of what he was doing. I said ok, but please don’t flake again, and if you do just tell me so at least I know. Once again I received nothing back, no call, no txt, no nothing. So after 3 days of being extremely PO… I txt him and said… look its obvious we are no good as being more than just friends, so if you ever need to talk or even just to BS just give me a call, ill be here when you need a friend. I never received anything back. I kinda miss him, but I will not put up with that inconsideration, to me it’s just rude. Are all Taurus’s like this, or was this just my experience? And if it is a Taurus thing can you Taurus’s tell me why your like this?

Another Taurus..
by: Tia

Okay so I just so happen to meet another Taurus guy.. but he is 4yrs older than me.. To make it long story short we met at his sister's wedding and we both just clicked since. Only problem he had dating me let alone marry me was that he didn't want me to hurt him.. So I confided in him and made it be known that I would never would dream of hurting him and to prove it I left every other guy I thought I had interest in and just kept my focus on him. Now I get a phone call from him and he tells me that he wants us to get married on his seven day leave..I was shocked and taken by complete surprise and Now I am all confused again but by Another Taurus.. HELP!

I NEED SOME INSIGHT FROM A TAURUS MAN PLZZZZZ, LOL

To Confused Leo
by: Aphrodite Bull

I'm a Taurus female--

"so if you ever need to talk or even just to BS just give me a call, ill be here when you need a friend. I never received anything back. I kinda miss him, but I will not put up with that inconsideration, to me it’s just rude. Are all Taurus’s like this, or was this just my experience? And if it is a Taurus thing can you Taurus’s tell me why your like this? "(Posted by Leo).

With Tauruses it's funny. It can mean any of the following...
(1) He's not interested and wants to let you down gently.

(2) Tauruses often get stuck in routine. If you're not a part of their immediate circle of people, then you're pretty much irrelevant at this point.(Expect flakiness). A Taurus list of priorities, (1) Money first, (2) Nuclear family second, (3)Surrounding themseleves with familiar people, usually friends they have known for 10+ years. Anyone else beyond this circle is irrelevant. Which means there will have to be a lot of coaxing and persuasion on your part. I know Leos are too proud to beg. Well, so are Tauruses.

(3) He may be shy and scared to death of you.

(4) He's keeping you on your toes to see if you're really interested. Try avoiding refering to yourself as the 'reliable friend.' Tauruses are obsessed with consistency. Start out in the friendship zone, stay in the friendship zone.

(5) He hasn't rationalized his feelings for you yet and needs to be away from you to figure things out. Mental pros and cons. We don't wear our hearts on our sleeves. Call it segregation of mind and heart. Yes, we're procrastinators.

(6) He may be seeing other women to keep himself guarded. What causes this?
(6a) Strong feelings for an individual in such a short period of time. Needs to withdraw, refocus, comprehend, again segregation of mind and heart. Dating other people will help him regain focus.
(6b) If he doesn't feel safe, or see a potential threat to his vulnerabilty, expect many disappearing acts. Although he will prevent himself from becoming too emotionally attached, he will pop in and out of your life just to re- claim you. A Taurus motto for possession, 'I Have.' Or he will stalk you from a respectful distance (checking up on you).
(6c) If he feels that you're a control freak who is trying to navigate the relationship, he will simply look for someone less controlling. Taurus are drawn to strong minded people, but we require some form of vulnerability. Know when to be in the drivers seat, and learn when to be in the passenger seat.

Personally I think it's ALL numbers 2-6. Something tells me he's semi-interested.
Good Luck.

Wow since my last post there has been so much more to my story! First off, I want to thank you for your advice and taking your time to respond to me.Well, he eventually called me and told me he missed me. So we began talking again every day. He asked me to come over to his place and he would make me dinner and we can relax in his spa after dinner. I agreed but I wasn’t 100% sure this was going to happen (because of his previous track record of flaking). Well, I did go to his house and we had dinner and relaxed in the spa. I also explained to him that his constant flaking was something I wasn’t going to deal with for much longer. His reply was that he knew this conversation was going to come up and he said he will try and correct this, but that I have to try and understand where he was coming from, (a little background, he has some medical issues that he is struggling with at the moment) and I told him that In turn I would take into consideration his stand point. I stayed the night, he was perfect, attentive, caring, and protective, every moment he got he was holding me, kissing me, and he was EVERYTHING I WANTED! The next morning we got up to get dressed and we went for breakfast and when we got back to his house his daughter called and he ended up having to leave. So I went home and he told me he would come by that night so that we could go out. That night he didn’t show up but he did call. Anyway we talked for a few days and then he disappeared! For 2 weeks AGAIN! The last time he disappeared for that long was the last time we were intimate. Anyway this last time he txt me and said he had to get away and clear his head and now he’s back and that he was sorry he was so hit and miss for so long. I said are you ok? He said yes. I said did it clear you head? He said yes and he would like to start over and he told me how beautiful I was and if I would like to go to dinner with him next week. I agreed and the following day I hadn’t received any text until I sent him a pic of my nephew and me, he responded, and that was that. Up to this point in our relationship he has done 3 or 4 no call no shows, at least 10 flaking, and 3- 3day disappearing acts, and 2-2week disappearing acts, all within 2 ½ months.

To Aphrodite Bull Part 2
by: Confused leo

He has told me he wants to see where this relationship is going to go that he wants to take things slow, I agreed with him I didn’t want to rush into anything either. Anyway the following day after the picture I txt him in the morning and told him I needed to talk to him. He said ok. I said “look, I’m not going to pretend that your disappearing acts don’t bother me, to tell you the truth, they make me very upset! And your most significant disappearing acts are right after we are intimate and that made me feel like your playing me for a fool. I needed to get that off my chest and thank you for letting me.” His response was “I understand and thank you for your honesty.” I didn’t want to dwell on being upset so I changed the subject and we txt back in forth a few more times, but then it stopped. 2 days later I still hadn’t received anything. So I decided I needed to do something drastic to keep him from coming back into my life, because when it comes to him I can’t just ignore his txt or phone calls. I am a strong independent Leo women but he put some kind of spell on me.. lol! I had told him a few times that I liked him a lot, and maybe I shouldn’t have but I felt I needed to. Anyway I txt him and in the text I made it so I seemed a lil clingy and insecure, which I hadn’t ever been that way with him before so I was hoping that he would be disgusted by my text and not respond or want to try and contact me again. Since then he hasn’t, but then again it hasn’t been that long. I’m not going to lie, I miss him SOOOOO MUCH! Even though I only saw him a few times I can’t seem to get him out of my head. I don’t know if he will ever contact me again, and if he does I don’t know if I can be strong enough to ignore him. He has a hold over me that nobody, including myself will ever understand.

So confused...
by: dubie

I'm a female capricorn and my boyfriends taurus male. Oh man im crazy over him but so confused and tryin to talk to him seems impossible. Some days he says he loves me and some days he doesnt say it. Some days he calls me babe and stuff and some days he doesnt. He is SOOO hot&cold with me and i dont know what to do about it. We just broke up for the third time and hes acting like hes wanting to get back together again. He is way too hot&cold with me. I'm going to tell him that he wants to be with me or not and that the next time he leaves me, im done for good because it hurts me worse everytime he does this. Some days he cant get enough of me and hes confessing his love for me and then the next second he doesnt know if he wants to be with me but he still talks to me like we're dating. I'm so tired of chasing him around... How do i get through to him and get him to chase me alil too?

His problems may be FINANCIAL!

If his fiances are not in order, then his confidence level is probably at a ground zero. This causes them to isolate themselves from a lot of people, possibly loved ones as well. We are naturally private people. If I'm correct in my assumption, he's probably not going to divulge this information to you. For Taurus men, they're usually the rock, or glue that holds everything together. When people come to Tauruses during their time of need, Taurus men are always happy to oblige. However, during their time of need, they tend to isolate themselves instead.

Why are Tauruses like this? If we break down emotionally, then everything and everyone else around us will crumble. We have have an amazing emotional strength, and rarely whine and complain about our problems. We're fixers. Not whiners. But in order to correct a problem, we need time away from you to do so. Money is a security blanket for Taurus men. Taurus is the sign of finances.

If it is FIANCIAL... He may not feel that he is worthy of you. He certainly doesn't want to be taken care of by a woman financially. This man wants to possess YOU. He doesn't want it the other way around. If you're going to be his WOMAN, then he needs to show you off, spoil you, but needs money in order to do so. He's proud. He doesn't want to be pitied.

Thoughts and emotions are always suppressed by Taureans. We live in our own heads. Don't make too much of the disappearing acts, or his non-verbal communication. It's nothing personal. Instead, focus on how he looks at you when he's with you, or how he looks at you when he thinks you're not looking. This will speak volumes about how he feels about you. If he looks at you like:

"I can't believe this person belongs to ME. I feel like the luckiest person in the world."

He wants to possess you. He wants to be your MAN.

When we feel like this, it's a combination of awkwardness, euphoria, and accomplishment.

It's like winning the lottery. Your're excited about being a millionaire, but hesitant about the effect it will have on your morale, judgement, or choices. So although you're happy about being a millionaire, you still opt to move with caution. That's your Taurus man.

Best advice:
-Be an active listener (when he's ready to open up).
-Don't let his disappearing acts bother you. It has nothing to do with you, or how he feels about you. His problems are personal. it may take him awhile to divulge the info.
-If he does contact you, or sees you in person, be real affectionate. Try hugs and kisses instead. We're a tangible sign. Not a verbal sign.
I'm a Taurus woman. I understand them very well!

To Dubie...So Confused
by: Aphrodite Bull

Have you tried any of the following?

1) Making him laugh. Renting a comedy. Cracking jokes with him.

2) Are you physically expressive or physically hesitant/cold? He needs tangible proof of your affection. This means reciprocation. Yes, the way he comes on to you UNAPOLOGETICALLY, he needs to feel as if you think he is the sexiest man alive. Men love to be complimented and reassured too.

3) Baking cookies, or his favorite cake.

4) Wearing some nice perfume or burning scented candles.

5) Are you 'accepting' of anyone his inner circle (family, friends)?

....If you answered "NO" to all the following, Girl, it's time to step up your A GAME.

Libra / Taurus .... does he like me???
by: Renee

So confused ... Libra female who met a Taurus man 4 months ago ... he shyly asked if I still had his number (had called for a work related thing earlier) and when I said yes he suggested I "text him sometime". I did and we've been texting back and forth ever since. I've hinted numerous times that I'd love to hang out and he's shot me down every time. He's also however made many comments about how I'm pretty etc. and always responds to my texts (only once has texted me on his own accord). I've seen him in public three times since and he's always insisted I hug him hello or goodbye. I watch him hug others and it's a simple hug hello whereas mine are lingering tight squeeze (should be followed by a kiss) hugs. I've read a lot about the Taurus man and he's it to a "t". I've tried to be patient because I really like him and want for something to happen.
I'm so confused .... does he like me or am I just another friend to this Taurus man?

I'm a 24 year old woman that recently broke up with my boyfriend of 6 years. I am extremely confused by the mixed signals of a taurus man (29) that up untill 2 weeks ago was nothing more than one of my closest friends. We actually met through my boyfriend (they were best friends and have known each other for 9 years - they're both 29) and grew very close when he came to stay with us when he and his gilfriend of 2 years broke up (they have a baby together). There was always an attraction between us and he always sided with me when me and my ex fought, and often instigated it by 'telling on him'. in that time he always stressed that he is more my friend than my ex's and since the break-up don't even speak to him anymore. when at last we took it to the next level, so to speak, I still acted like we're friends, being too proud to ever admit my feelings. now it feels like we're trapped in the pretense of friendship and we're both to proud to admit we have deeper feelings. worse is the fact that when i tell him i really need a friend right now he doesn't even try to support me. he's inconsiderate, mean and selfish. WTF?/. he knows that I'm hurting and if he cannot even be my friend how am I supposed to trust him with my heart?

by: Aphrodite Bull

Why do Scorpios play so many mind games? In order to fully comprehend your Taurus man, communicating with him 'sideways' will not work in your favor! Sending indirect and subtle signals and expecting him to fill in the blanks will fall on deaf ears. You will be as irrelevant to him as an unwanted kleenex tissue. We are the least abstract people of all signs. There are no gray shaded areas with us. Too proud to admit your feelings? Hello! This man risks his friendship with you former BF, has supported you through thick and thin, listened to you, sided with you...just to be placed in the friendship category? What have YOU sacrificed?
If you want him to pour his feelings out to you, then good luck with that one! He's not a sh@t-talker! What isn't verbalized through a Taurus will be expressed through genuine actions, tangible gifts, and affection. You better take that as PROOF of his feelings for you, and run with it.
He may be withdrawn because he feels slighted by you.
Your problem may not be with your Taurus man. The underlying problem may lie with some insecurities you may have. What are you afraid of?

To Renee, Libra
by: Anonymous

He sounds like a shy typical Taurean. He's defintely interested, but is also keeping you on your toes. If you want to be removed from the 'in limbo' routine, then you may want to move a little more boldly. Avoid texting him, try calling him instead. He may prefer to hear your voice. Lose the subtle hints. Taurus men are very straight-forward. Tell him you're interested in him romantically. He will not shoot you down. He may be more afraid of you than you are of him. Offer to cook him dinner, or rent a comedy by Jack Black, or Dave Chapelle. This will help him come out of his shell.

-Good Luck.

Damn...it's like I'm reading my own story over and over again.
I have pretty much the same show happening in my life right now...and it's not pleasant at all.
He's obviously a taurus an I'm a leo (scorpio in ascendant).
The only difference is that I've pushed my taurus away, but it's not like I've been trying to. It's just the fact that my friends are mostly guys....I simply can't find myself a good female friend no matter how hard I try.
We've had this thing happening for about 6 months now and I just can't get over him (not like I want to...you all know what I mean).
We kind of stopped seeing eachother in august but somehow we've got to see eachother last week and I'm back into it deep enough to drawn in emotions as he told me while sitting on my bed he wanted a serious relationship with me but he got scared because of all those guys around me. And he also said he HAD feelings for me but on his way out of my appartament he hugged me so softly but firmly at the same time...I knew I was his. He tried to hide he was smelling my neck while hugging me.
Since then we've been talking mainly on the internet even though we both live in the same city and like really near. I've been the one to initiate conversations even though he was the one who brought up the idea about internet. He seems and acts like he dosen't care in one moment and in the next he suggests subtly we should go for a walk.
So however, I'm really desperate and I want him to be mine but I simply don't know what to do anymore. I feel like I'm totally pushy and like I'm always begging for his attention but I can't stop. It's hard for me as I am a really proud leo and at the same time a really possessive scorpio. I wish he told me those things earlier, I wish he gave me one obvious sign he is still at least thinks about me and I wish I was more "girly" girl.

to aphrodite bull.

thanks for the the harsh but undenaible thruth that I may be the one at fault. one thing though, I'm not playing mind games, just being way too subtle like you said. We were friends for so long that I'm not sure how to let him know I want more than that. We were intimate for one night only (we didn't sleep together) and although I may not look it, are very shy and old-fashioned in that sense. I am soooo in love with him but don't know how to show it. I feel like a 10 year old again, grinning inanely at the memory of some stupid and seemingly inconsecential show of commitment from his part. I do not trust easily and cover my feelings with a smile and a laugh, and a 'we're just friends and you're my pal' attitude. This is how I've always handled unwanted feelings from men, but I really want to make it work with him. Aways knew we would be great together.. and as for your question of sacrifice, believe me, as a friend I'm the most attentive, loyal and sincere he ever had (his own words). I listen to people and really care and that's why he (and others) find me alluring.. I think... You're right, I am scared to death.. I deplore weakness in myself, are way too proud and stubborn, and seem indifferent when I'm everythting but.. just don't know if I can trust him enough to let go completely and how to make the first leap fom 'just friends' to 'I love you madly, truly, crazy'...

Taurus lover
by: cc

I have a jamaican taurus, we know each other for four years, we met and he cheated with me for a few weeks then he stopped all communication. I believed that he felt that I was a treat to is family but he gave me the silent treatment even when we see each other in our community. We started acknowledging each other a year after in which I was in a new relationship, he was still with the same girl. We did mainly flirting over the course of four years, hardly any conversations, during that four years we both had baby boys with different partners. His son turn a year old and he invited my son and I to the party. We began conversating everyday for four months when I told him that I love him, he was withdrawn, sometimes he acts like he wants me and other times he doesn't. Currently we are both in a solid relationship, we started having sex and everything changed, he gives me more attention and act as if he cares but he still didn't tell me if he has fallen inlove with me, I love him dearly, we are taking it slow but I am worried that he doesn't feel the same way. He ask me if I love him the last time that we were together, I said yes but he didn't say taht I love you too.

Ok...now I really dont know what to do anymore, so I am kindly asking you for any kind of advice. I see you are trying to help us all.. It became worse...to the point where I've tried reading selfhelp books.
As I wrote before, we are talking on the internet for about a month now. After I read this thread I thought I should be more straight forward by telling him I have fallen in love with him. There was no response for quite some time and then he appeared telling me he got sickand was in delirium.
Next day I told him I was thinking of thim and that I hoped he was better. He replied he thought of me as well. I asked when I'm going to see him (because I am sick of hanging here behind the computer and waiting till he's online and I'm sick of all hopes and expectations). His reply was: "I wish you wouldn't think of me as of anything else but a friend. In a perfect world I would expect of you to keep talking to me because I love our funny suporting conversations." I was left wordless. Is that it? Is his interest really and only in our "friendship"? We were never friends..only lovers with almost identical sense of humor...(we dont really share interests, but we think alike). On the other occasion he mentioned that in these days of all those social networks, lack of dignity and pride happy and longlasting relationships are not possible.
I don't know what to do anymore...Am I supposed to talk to him after what he said(this means I'll have to be the one to contact him first)? How sould I act when I see him? Like I am his freind or what? I am hurt and disappointed because I was expecting totally different outcome. I'm hurting myself by constantly thinking of how things could be... But I can't stop because I trully madly and deeply love him.

To Lionessa
by: Aphrodite Bull

Wow! Your man is very much a Taurus...and VERY much like me! He is absolutely spot on about the New Age form of romantic communication that separates men and women. I completely agree! Remember, we're old traditional souls. The five senses of a Taurus needs to be stimulated, sight, smell, sound, touch and taste. He needs to be able to see you visually, smell your perfume, hear your voice, touch your face and kiss you, and taste your cooking. This can't be accomplished via e-communication (ie, facebook, myspace, text messaging). These men are very, very sensual.
Right now his opinion of you is 'fixed.' This is not a good sign! These men can be quite inflexible when their initial perception of you is that of a 'f**k-buddy. This means drastic moves will have to be made to win him over. He needs to see you as a prospective life partner. It's all or nothing with a Taurus man. He's not going to waste his time or energy passing time with a 'current possibility girlfriend.' They leave very little room to chance.
Taurus love Leos for their ability to maintain themselves physically, blatant honesty,intelligence, and go-getter attitude. Don't change those qualities about you.
However,
You need to DO the following:
(1) Avoid communicating with him via text
(2) Distance yourself from your male fan base (Tauruses are jealous and possessive by nature). He wants to possess you and be possessed by you!
(3) Continue to be persistent. Instead of e-communicating, cook him dinner, be real affectionate with him, smell nice, and be clear and concise about how you feel about him. No subtleness. Call him on the phone. Always leave a message. Hearing your voice on his AM will be a reminder to call you when he's not busy.
(4) Ask about his family. Ask to see some pictures, photos or family videos. Eventually he will incorporate you into his inner circle, and will bring you around them.
(5) Avoid being overly-dramatic. This man is practical and very peace-loving. Use 'rationlization' to communicate. This will cause him to be more flexible and less dogmatic, trust me.
This will bring him closer to you, and eventually his initial perception of you will change.
-Good Luck

PS
Bulls are generally calm, peaceful animals who behave violently only when defending themselves or their territory.

So it would be extremely important for you to avoid drama at all costs. He's either going to RUN away from you (non-confrontational), or come at you full throttle, violently! Leos and Scorpios are known for stirring up drama. So please avoid this. He does not like his peaceful environment disrupted.

When you become his, he does not want to keep defending his 'territory' (which is primarily you) against the desires and intentions of other men. So please keep you male friends at bay or at a distance. This feeling of jealousy will eventually lead to resentment. They're not the sharing type.

by: Lionessa

Thank you for the suggestions! I really appreciate your help. I would gladly do all those things...but I dont have the possibility to see him in real life even though we live in the same part of the city. I don't want to make drama and I don't want to scare him away....by being pushy.
Looks like Ill have to let him go if I dont want to damage my emotional health.

by: Aphrodite Bull

I read your posts several times. I have a few questions to ask you first before I can fully give you my advice.

(1) How long have you been dating your Taurus?
(2) Have you met any of his immediate (nuclear) family memebers (ex. Father, Mother, Sister, Brother)?
(3)What state do you live in? What state does your Taurus live in?
(4) How often do the two of you commute to see each other (per year)?
(5) What was the reason behind your Taurus and his baby mother's seperation?
(6) What does he do for a living? How many hours per week does he work? (This is very important because Tauruses are extreme workaholics, a 'money-making' sign...so finances will come before you at this moment, and your calls will DEFINTELY go unanswered).

Here is what's going on....

He's been very honest about his 'non-existent' relationship with his child's mother. Tauruses are pretty much straightforward people when it comes to being interrogated with direct questions. Although we absolutely hate to regress (especially with past relationships where infidelity was involved), nevertheless Tauruses {We} feel an ethical and moral responsibility to be full time committed parents and devoted partners. This is why both Taurus men and women can be quite procrastinators or pull disappearing acts during the initial dating stage. The wrong selection can produce a series of negative, lifetime consequences. Now he's stuck with a slut-baby mother(forgive the pun) that he doesn't see a future with. This is what we fear the most!

Our second biggest fear? Not being able to provide for our loved ones. In his case, his child, and not being able to pamper you and spoil you in the way that he hoped. The absentee of finances can put a Taurus in a slump or serious depression. In the past, when I lost my job or was not financially where I wanted to be, I isolated myself from many potential suitors. I was completely embarassed. I love to spoil people too. I never kept communication lines open. I always tried to sort it out myself. Here is the thing. Tauruses are the go-to, nurturing people when everyone has a problem. We're the emotional glue that holds everything and everyone together. So we prevent ourselves from having any emotional meltdowns around other people. We hate for people to see any emotional weakness in us...so we try to put on brave faces. But when our finances are not in order, internally, our world is falling apart.

I can assure you he's not cheating on you. He's actually embarassed. It's the holidays and he probably has no money. See, Tauruses (We) express our love for others through tangible gifts, and not through verbal expressions of love. Buying you presents is our way of showing/telling you how much we love and appreciate you. Right now, he knows no other way to express his gratitude. He's a Taurus. Although we're extreme romantics, being affectionate and spending on our loved ones is our only form of self-expression, unfortunately.

As for what he's going through with his finances, he's not going to let you in. We NEVER let people in when this happens. So don't pry, pressure, or confront. Bulls HATE that! Let it ride. In the meantime cheer him up. Make him laugh, cook him dinner, and give him the sexual ride of his life! When his finances improve, he will repay you in 10FOLDS!!! Trust me. With a Taurus, a good deed is never forgotten. We're ethical people remember!

-Good Luck

Ok so I'm back, I went to see my Taurus friend and I need help, so we have been talking on the phone and texting for over three months. (ldr)I guess, the night before I was leaving he was probing me with questions before i went to see him...like whats on your mind when it comes to me?? now mind you he never asked that question before, I couldnt answer at the time because the question threw me off....he then asked if I would be more comfortable to tell him in person and I agreed. We had a great time while I was there he stared at me alot from a distance, i touched him, teased him, tried to appeal to all his senses, ( i hear you guys like that, lol)he was affectionate and after coming back home he has been very distant, he dosent initiate contact like before, when we spoke he said that he wanted to be "good Friends" where was this coming from?? we never discussed a relationship before but 1 week before I was goin to see him he text me due to a message I sent to him the nite before being concerned about him, he said he thought there was alot of emotion behind the message and he liked that...he said "I have to get used to a partner in crime", "If you were here I know we would be together"?? I'm very confused now...is he pushing me away cause he may have feelings but not ready for a realtionship?? was this a test to see how I would react? is he still intrested?? or should I give up?? i havent called in 6 days and this is the longes we have not spoke since meeting Aug 8th. Please any insight would be helpful!!!!!!

Your Bull defintely has feelings for you. When your Bull stares at you from a distance, that is a sure sign that he's 'really' into you. He's assessing you, feeling you out,seeing how you interact with other people, but thinking how lucky he is to be with you. It's weird. No one knows what goes on in a Taurus' head. We will stare at you and make you feel like the sexiest person on the planet, and leave the same person clueless as to what our true intentions are. We confuse people with our lack of verbal communication, but our eyes tell the whole story. You appealed to all his senses. Smart woman! He probably was going nuts inside! He told you that he admired the emotional content you left on his AM. Bulls absolutely love stability. We crave that reassurance of concern, especially if it's genuine. BTW, we also love to see that our object of affection can be both strong & vulnerable.

The long distance, however, will be a problem. Here's what they don't tell you about Bulls in the zodiac. We're highly ethical, yes, conservative, yes, stable, yes, Blah Blah Blah. Here's the truth. We're absolute nymphs! I am not sure if you had a sexual encounter with your Bull or not, but your mechanical Bull wants multiple orgasms in one night, every night of the week if he can have it. He's too much of a gentleman to tell you that. He also craves physical contact vs texting and calling. We don't want pen-pals. We want physical intimacy. Tauruses are affectionate by nature. This is what we're famous for. All true! An LDR can be draining for a Bull who craves constant physical and sexual contact. LDR's don't work for us, so he's probably letting you down gently.

I hope this helps.

thanks for the advice,and i understand wat your sayin.but you know im a pisces and were very very emotional..i mean i feel it to my heart that hes not cheatin on me but,wat am i supposed to think when hes not answerin me..i mean if i dont ask him the things that i feel i should know he wouldnt come out and tell me if i dont ask.this bothers me very much cause i tell this man everyting,and i could at least get the same back.dont you agree? i understand the kind of person he is and i totally respect him for being him,and not liein to me..but my biggest fear is his baby mother cause we both know men are easily seduced..do you tink he would give in if this was to happen? i trust my man,and i know he trust me too.but, i know he have doughts that i could cheatin to but dont say anyting..all i want is for this boy to talk to me.i dont read minds..but, i would take your advice and put it into play and see wat happens..

Thanks AP for your post, Wow so all that contacting for over 3 mos to just let me down after having an amazing weekend!! well I dont know what to say, I mean we were intimate and the sex was terriffic, lol Im a gem/taurus cusp by the way...so i definitely thought we had a strong connection and he said so as well. It's just weird how after having sex, he has changed..I asked my father and he said sometimes guys pull away when the sex is good and a man dosnet want to be attached?? AproditeBull you think he has feelings for me...so why not act on them now that we have and all this physical contact? We talked about me moving to his state which I love and my niece lives there and i have been out to visit 3 times already this year, is is a designer and stays busy tring to build up his brand so i definitly understand being busy...so my REAL QUESTION IS? Am I wasting my time?? =(

@ Gem Woman
by: Aphrodite Bull

The advice your father gave you was spot on! With a Taurus individual, it's all or nothing. It's either we possess you completely, or keep a respectful distance. We're actually quite guarded and extremely shy towards people we have strong feelings for.

I will let you inside our heads. With LOVE, it's a segregation of mind and heart. We're always struggling to balance emotions and logical reasoning. The emotional aspect of this trait? We're obsessing about you all the time. This usaully involves thoughts about any physical initmacy we would like to have with you on a continuous basis. Or smelling your scent, hearing your voice, or conversing with you face to face. Suprisingly, we actually hate this feeling. Our insecurities kick in, and we would like to know that the person is feeling us the same way we're feeling them. During this stage, we're either guarded, mean, standoffish, distant or pulling disappearing acts. We want you to let your guards down FIRST. Pulling the disappearing acts (in and out of your life) keeps you on your toes, interested, and secures our spot(position) with you just in case we decide to resume a relationship w/you.
The logical reasoning aspect of this trait? We do not give our hearts openly and readily. We're quite selective people actually. So we assess all your flaws, positive traits and etc.
The best advice I can give you is to consider moving to his state. Tauruses love financial security. He's not going to give up his bread and butter to relocate to your state. Real talk! But I can assure you he has feelings for you. The LDR, however will not work. Because although he has feelings for you, he's not emotionally invested in you to make a LDR work.

Wondering Now What..
by: Tia

To AP, so I've been listening to what you have to say and all these other posts and what not. I've commented before but now I am wondering something else. Seeing that the guy I love is Taurus,do I really have to forget about him and move on or is there anything I can try and do to get him back in my life. He one of our three things that kept my life stable. I'm okay now, but I find myself obsessing over him in my thoughts and in evrything I do. I hate looking at other guys because I just compare them all to him. Is there really no other chance for me?.. My older brother and my little sister says I should just call him to see how he is doing, but I'm scared to even pick up the phone. I'm scared that I'm shaking now. I just don't want to be let down and I do NOT know what to expect at all so that's why I am scared I guess.

I read your current and previous post to get the whole story. I hate to admit this, but your Taurus man was just not that into you. Move on. There are both good and bad traits of a Taurus that the zodiac does not cover. (they seem to only dwell on the positives, thus, misleading a lot of people). The less evolved ones move like this:
I call this one 'Preventing the boomerang effect.' Tauruses (the unevolved ones) will play along with their significant other, play it by ear, and just nod in agreement, but leave themselves an open door WITHOUT writing the official staus of your relationship in stone. This is quite clever actually, no games, no manipulation, just very little communication. This simply means by being evasive, and not signing off on the status of your relationship, he can convince himself that he was NEVER in one once he decides on choosing another mate. But your bedroom will be a revolving door with him popping in and out of your bed for sexual gratification on his terms, and his terms only. He will not have to worry about anything coming back to bite him in the @ss. He can always say "We were never in a relationship" just to defend himself. Because somehow, he's convinced himself of his own BS. Yes, Tauruses can be quite selfish, too!

Because we're intuitive and perceptive, he may have guessed that you were very much a lady and would not have tolerated a fly-by-night type. So he just played along. Because we're extreme nurturers, romantics, and very stable, reeling in the opposite sex is never difficult. You will be suprised to know how we're able to draw people in with very little effort. I'm pretty sure that's how he attracted his other women. Even the one he's currently seeing.

There is nothing you can do on your part to get him back. Tauruses are very stubborn people. Once our minds are made up there is nothing a person can do to change it. WE have to be the only deciding factor to correct any mistakes that were made. If he realizes that he made the wrong choice, then he will pursue you in the exact manner a fox hunts for a rabbit...and there will be nothing standing in his way when he does this.

...But in the meantime, please try to move on and keep yourself occupied.

Okay..Will Do

For future references... if your Taurus does come back....

Capricorns have a tendancy to guard their reputation and 'good girl' image with much gusto. Cappies tend to be way too overly concerned about how they're perceived by others. TaurusGuy was correct in one thing, Tauruses (at least the evolved ones) wants to nurture, nurture, nurture. We're not looking for perfection. We value honesty above anything else. Let him get to know the 'real' you, flaws, dysfunctional family and all. He will respect you. An evolved Taurus wants to nurture you, make all your problems disappear and make you happy. But he needs to see the 'real' you in order to do so.

crazy about my Taurus
by: Underwatergirl

Hi. Well after reading all about the Taurus men you ladies know, I just have to ask for some advice myself.
I am a Pisces and I have known my Taurus for about 6mnths now. We met over the internet, never saw any pics of each other anything, just 2 people looking for a friend to hang out with for a day. I was a little nervous about meeting a stranger, so we texted and talked on the phone for a couple days, I finally agreed to meet up with him. And oh wow, I am not sure if I'm glad I did or not,lol. It was amazing! We spent a very magical evening together, just talking, watching the sunrise, holding hands and eventually a kiss (= Then he took me home.
And he came on STRONG. for the next couple weeks, we saw each other every night(he works days and we both happen to like watching stars) We talked about everything, mostly about how we were both a little scared by each other and couldnt believe what we had found. And how he wished he would of met me years ago. He always said, the perfect right person, just the wrong time. (both of us at the time were in the process of divorces) BUT, we were both in agreement that we were not looking for a relationship. But it was like two people in love sitting there lying about being in love. lol. Once he asked if he could keep me forever, I said you know it isnt possible. When I met him, I was moving in a month. And he knew this.
We spent what time we could just being around each other, talking, good morning, good night texts, calls everyday, falling asleep in each others arms and waking up to each other. 2 weeks after we met, he said I love you, I couldnt say that yet. At this point of a month, we still hadnt slept together. I told him I was a lady and didnt just hop into bed with anyone. But he did his best to respect that, lol.He always would ask what are you thinking, whats on your mind. He said nobody was ever as emotionally or physically as comfortable as me.

Anyway, a couple days before I was supposed to move, I did something silly. He showed up at my house to surprise me and I was a little intoxicated, I got too emotional! I was a mess, crying, talking a bout how I couldnt deny my feelings for him. He asked me to look him in the eyes and say it, I couldnt, not because I didnt want to, just because, I am shy and words failed me. He said he couldnt give me more right now, he was numb. And it just wasnt the right time, he didnt want to fall in love, he needed some time.

crazy about my Taurus part 2
by: Underwatergirl

After that, the disappearing and flaking started. I only had a couple more days in town, but the everyday talking and texting stopped. Then right before I left he called and asked if I wanted to sleep with him, I said no. Then I left. I was only gone for 2 weeks before I decided to visit again. We kept in contact while I was gone, mostly texting. When I got back, I went to see him and we did have sex. And it was amazing!!! The next day when we parted he said call or text me. So I did the next day. And then I tried to see him before I left again. But he just kept being flaky and we never saw each other before I left again.
Anyway, three months later, and we have still kept in contact through texting, not a lot, mostly just once a week, one of us says hi, or are you still there? But, I have now moved back into town, partially for family and partially because, I missed him. The night I decided I was moving back, I hadnt heard from him for a bit and all of a sudden got a, when are you gonna be back in town text. I said, actually Im moving back in a couple days. Then the whole next week, he kept texting and asking, where are you now, then he asked if I needed a ride form the airport. I said, ok. Well, he ended up flaking on that. He does have a kid and sometimes has to watch her, so I try to be understanding when he says it's for that reason, I just say well thats ok then.
Since I have been back thou, it's been a month now, I have been texting and trying to see him. Once I flaked on him, and a couple times he just doesnt answer for a while. At the moment thou it feels like I am in pursuit of this boy, but he keeps me hanging there, he will text and say I'm not ignoreing you, just got stuff going on. So this last time, I texted and said, I would really like to see you and he answered back and said, I would like that, so we planned on meeting the next day. He said text me or call in the afternoon. So I did, I texted a couple times, then I finally said, are you ignoring me. He texted and said yes, I dont wanna talk to anyone, I'm having a bad day. Urrrgghhhhh, So I said, whats wrong- no answer. Finally I said, ok, well let me know if theres anything I can do. Nothing. And now its the next morning.

So, anybody have any advice? Is he still interested, or is this the blow off? I'm not that easily scared away, I'll stand here and wait, as long as I'm not just hanging around in vain.

I'm a Taurus woman. The 'Fishes' can be unpredictable and changeable at times. The Bulls hate that. We want stability. Which means we have to see honesty & consistency. He handed you his heart, and expressed how he felt about you unapologetically (which is NEVER easy for a Bull to do). Hello! You told him that you were moving in a month and not looking for a relationship. He probably just simply 'mirrored' your response by telling you that he wasn't looking for a relationship either. But trust me, his heart was ripped to pieces. He meant everything he told you. He wasn't flaking on you in the beginning. He knew EXACTLY what he wanted...which was YOU!
On the other hand, YOU'RE actually the 'flaky' one. You're moving in a month, not looking for a relationship, get intoxicated, and then tell him that you're in love with him, then you move, contact him, and then admit to flaking on him a couple of times. Of course he's disappearing on you sporatically...look at how you're moving with him. Your intentions? 'I really want to be with this Taurus man'. Your actions and how it's being perceived by your Taurus? 'I'm just having a little fun after my divorce, and it looks like you're it.' This is usually one of the biggest challenges for Earth and Water signs. Water signs assume everyone lives underwater and is suppose to be in tuned with their emotions ALL the time. Underwatergirl, may I suggest finding a Scorpion or a Crab underseas. Your actions to a Bull on Earth, spells C.O.N.F.U.S.I.O.N!

Here's what's going on with him. He just went through a divorce, so financially he's probably drained (Bulls love money), he has to adjust to changes in his family structure and (custody vistits, etc)and re-priortizing everything in his life. As you know Bulls HATE change! To make matters worst, now he's crazy about your inconsistent flaking @ss. Wouldn't YOU be just a bit cranky? Here is my advice to you Fishy, swim upstream, and observe a Bull during a Bullfight. We love peace, comfort, and familiar surroundings. You will not see too many people in a Bull's inner circle. When we welcome you, embrace it. Don't lie to us or flake on us. Always be honest and consistent.
However, if you observe that there is a threat or any changes to a Bull's environment(primarily by bullfighters), you will see Bulls react negatively, stomp, charge, and possibly be violent. We hate drama, disturbance, or a change of any kind.
With Bulls, it's all or nothing. Don't try to entice him with possibilities, hints or innuendos. They will fall on deaf ears. He wants the real thing. Say it, and mean it. This means your actions will have to be consistent. No more flaking!

@Aphrodite Bull
by: Underwatergirl

Thanks for your response. I'm just wondering, now that I came back, is chasing him around always trying to let him know I want to see him to much? Or should I be patient and let him come to me and wait till then to let him know how I feel? I have every intention of telling this man how I feel. But it needs to be face to face, I need him to see me when I tell him, I need to be able to make him feel it in my touch, not in some lame text or on the phone. I just get nervous not wanting to push him and wanting to let him have his space. I know how nerve racking it must be for him getting everything back in order. I thou, like him, have a tendency to mirror behavior. When someone says to me, I'm not looking for a relationship then I let it be. But I know that what we have is real and worth it.

@Underwatergirl
by: Aphrodite Bull

Here is the huge misconception people have about Bulls. Because we're slow to initiate courtships and dislike to be pressured, potential suitors will either pull away, or may not verbalize their 'real' emotions towards a Bull. We ALWAYS want to know where we stand with you, we just prefer the courtship to be gradual. With Bulls, we're very complex people who are full of suprises. We give ourselves away in bits and pieces...never in a mouthful(even if we're in love with you).
The most ironic thing about this introversion? People fall in love with us very easily. For the life of us, we NEVER understand people's immediate emotional reaction to us. Yeah, we're very shy, quite humble and modest people. So rather than communicate with you, we're evaluating our own worth. Am I where I want to be fianancially? What is about 'me' that this person is drawn to? We may feel this person's feeling is just temporary, and the feelings may later change once they get to REALLY know us. See with Tauruses, we want 'forever' and not'right now.' To possess you and be possessed by you. This is when we start feeling out a person to determine whether or not we want to resume a relationship. But this will require patience on the other person's part.
My advice to you, tell him how you feel, where you stand with him, but tell him you understand the changes he's going through in his life, and that you're willing to be patient. Those are magic words to a Taurus. He will then, let you in little by little.

@Confused Pisces
by: Aphrodite Bull

Here is what I think (I may be wrong)....

His child's mother may be helping him out financially. But of course, he's never going to tell you that. His father is in another country, his mom passed away, so his support system is pretty much non-existent. No support system + No job= Disaster, and possible depression for a Taurus. I live in NYC, and let me tell you, the cost of living here is NO F^^KING JOKE!
I don't think he was leading you on. Tauruses are extremely overly-cautious and we pre-plan EVERYTHING! If he was still sleeping with his child's mother, he would have NEVER invited you to come to NYC initially. We're not that stupid. For every decision that's made, our grounds are usually covered.(Cont'd)

@Confused Pisces
by: Aphrodite Bull

(Cont'd)....
He doesn't want any drama from the woman who is still feeling him and helping him out financially (and who knows, alleviating him of any child support financial responsibilities) Tauruses hate being controlled.
But we will give our opponents the upper hand, temporarily if we're benefitting from it somehow. Which is why we enjoy our OWN financial security. We hate to relinquish that control.
Here is an example. How can I explain it? During my undergraduate years I was friends with this guy that I wasn't attracted to. However, he was attracted to me. I hung out with him because it was convenient for me at the time I wasn't working. He was being nice and helping me out. I never initiated a relationship w/ other men that I wanted to be with because I didn't want to upset him. But in reality, I didn't want to sabotage any form of security I was getting from this person. (Cont'd)

@Confused Pisces
by: Aphrodite Bull

(Cont'd) So temporarily, I denied my own happiness for some type of security with someone I didn't see myself with. Our confidence is extremely low at this point. Although I had many suitors, nevertheless I didn't think I was worthy of any of them. With Tauruses, for people we TRULY want to be with, we want to give them the best of us! Our better halves. Which is why we never regress, re-hash sad childhood memories, or have this person ever witness us in a financial slump. With that friend of mine, I couldn't care less, I was not in love with him. This is what the zodiac does not divulge about Tauruses. When in love, there's introversion, insecurities, doubt, and uncertainty. We're very complex people. When I found a great paying job and my confidence went up, I distanced myself from this guy. Was it messed up? Yes. But we can be quite selfish people, too. Take away our finances and support system, and we will be looking out for ourselves and ourselves only...but just temporarily.
So Pisces, it's going to be left up to you. If the woman continues to support him financially, you will ALWAYS come in second until he gets himself together financially.

He's not playing head games with you. He's embarassed. Which I stated earlier. Personally, I think she is helping him out financially (unless he's got a 'side hustle'...which I doubt). Just because she didn't cover the phone bill does not mean that she's covering other things. I don't know what borough he lives in, But the standard rate for a one bedroom apt in Bklyn/Queens..$1200/month. Manhattan, at least $4000-5,000/month. Combine that with Electric, and Gas. He may have thought his phone was something he could do w/o for right now. Especially since his unemployment was cut off! HELLO!
Why would he prefer to borrow money from her? Simple. He doesn't love or respect her. He doesn't mind being seen as weak in her eyes because he does not see longevity with this woman. Like I said earlier, with Tauruses in love, there's a lot of introversion, insecurities, doubt and uncertainty. We have to be able to SHOW that we're good enough for this person which is why we ONLY show our better halves. No emotional meltdowns, no open discussion of any financial problems we may be having. Like I said earlier, if he's in a financial slump, he will NEVER let you in. We're proud people and easily embarassed. (Cont'd)

(Cont'd). You're a Water sign (Pisces), so you're observing the situation from an emotional standpoint. You're not in his position right now.
This is where your Taurus man is:
1. No employment
2. High rent
3. Electricity
4. Cable
5. No support system (family)
6. A child he has to care for
7. No unemployment checks

What's going through his head right now? Feelings of inadequacy, poor financial preparation, financially crippled, unworthiness, isolation, and worst of all humilation. All the love and support you offer him will be greatly appreciated, but it will not remove him from this slump. He has to sort things out on his own. Unfortunately, he will have to distance himself a little from you to do this.

He slept with her after his Mom passed. That's not suprising. Question? When your Taurus man gets himself together financially, would you consider relocating to NYC to be with him?

What you had predicted has happened. My Taurus sends me messages every now and again, nothing in debth but just enough to remind me he's there. I still think about him a lot and I don't say anything to scare him away actually I might not say enough, because I'm afraid he's going to dissapear again. My question is do taurus's check up on every women they have dated? Will they go out of their way to talk to a woman that they have moved on from? I guess I just was to know if I should feel special to him because he is checking up on me, or does he just see me as a friend?

@Confused Leo
by: Aphrodite Bull

Tauruses HATE to regress. But this only applies to relationships. We do not like to keep photos, pics, videos, or any memoralia of any past exes. We prefer to start NEW relationships on a clean slate. Just you and I...no one else! It's that simple. He's defintely semi-interested, which brings me to my next question. Where did you INITIALLY stand w/your Taurus man? Were the two of you FWB? F-buddies? Or in a relationship?

This is very important because Taureans have a tendancy to treat a situation according to the way it presents itself. We're so stubborn, inflexible, and so confident on our read on people, it becomes so difficult for us to read in between the lines and see them in another light. (Cont'd)

@Confused Leo
by: Aphrodite Bull

(Cont'd) Let me give you an example:

I had a FWB in the past. Yes Tauruses can distinguish the difference between love and sex. He never gave me the indication that he was looking for a relationship in the beginning. We flirted, sent each other sexy text msgs, so I proceeded to treat it as such. Then one time I came to see him (for our usual sex romps), and then I'm being introduced to his family. He asked me to be his date at some wedding, and then this 'talk' about how he sees himself with me, and etc. Other signs of the zodiac would have seen his intentions as amorous. To a Taurus, throwing something like that at us the last minute (especially when we have grown accustomed to having you as a f-buddy) spells EMOTIONAL MANIPULATION.
Because we're so stubborn and confident on our 'initial' read on people, our inflexibility does not allow us to look at you in a different light. This is how we're viewing this person...
1) This person clearly doesn't know what they want
2) Emotional manipulation
3) This person is playing mind games

My question to you is, did you initially tell your Taurus that you were looking for a relationship? (For us, it's not about how you proceed, but what you initially 'put out there')

@aphrodite bull
by: confused leo

well.. in the beginning we would talk a lot and when we finally met up we had coffee and talked so much more. we ended up back at my apt. and we sat on the couch and talked. Usually i am very good at reading people but he was difficult and i was staring at him at one point, and he asked me what i was thinking. i told him that i was trying to figure him out because for the life of me i couldn't. he laughed and said i am an open book whatever you want to know i will tell you. so i asked him if he was still a player... (background.. him and i went to school together about 15 years ago, we were acquaintances back then but nothing more.) he said no, that he realized a while ago that he doesn't want to be alone for the rest of his life that he wants something meaningful. and i told him that i was afraid of him because i know what he is capable of, and that i have been hurt so many times that i dont want to jump into any relationship quickly. he asked me why i was so afraid and i told him about all the times ive been hurt. he tried to reassure me that, that wasn't what he was going to do to me, that those are not his intentions, but he agreed with the not rushing into a relationship idea. i then told him that i wanted to wait a little while before getting intimate with him, he agreed to that also. that didn't last long the next time i saw him was the first time we were intimate, that is also when his notorious disappearing acts became more frequent. in our entire relationship we were only intimate twice. when i would ask him if he only sees me as a "booty call" his response would always be no, that he enjoys spending time with me. that always confused me because if he enjoyed spending time with me then why would he flake and be so distant. we were never really boyfriend and girlfriend we never had the title, and honestly because i think there was someone else. anyway i hope this helps you make a better assessment of my situation.

@Confused Leo
by: Aphrodite Bull

In the beginning, your Taurus man told you EXACTLY what he was looking for {A relationship}. No BS, no games. However, this is how he perceives you....

"A woman with way too much emotional baggage, who's guarded, and completely unsure of what she wants."

We tend to treat a situation according to the way it presents itself. This means he will 'mirror' your actions, and be just as indecisive as you are. We want to be 100% sure about who we marry...and we want the other person to be 100% about being with us. To possess you and be possessed by you. All or nothing!

You told him that you were afraid to be intimate with him, but then you decided to sleep with him.
He will check on you from time to time. He sees you as a FWB, not a potential girlfriend.

His initial perception of you is SET IN STONE!

Thank you! That helps me out a lot!

ok i want to show my bull that i care about him and his situation.do u tink if i tell him that i would give him some tyme and space to get his self together,not meanin that im breakin up with him cuz i will never do that,but u tink that would cause a problem for us? i mean would he feel like i dont want to b with him anymore becuz of his situation? or wat do u suggest i should do?..

@ Confused Pisces
by: Aphrodite Bull

Tell him that you love him and will give him space to sort things out. If he wants o contact you just to talk, that you're 'open ears'.... and will always be there for him once he decides to open up.

* Don't offer to pay any more bills. He's humilated enough. He wants to hold on to whatever pride and dignity he has left!*

@ ap
by: confused pisces

thank you..i tink he would appreciate that..i just hope he doesnt forget about me..

This Taurus guy has confused the living day lights outta me! He's hot and cold all the time. We'd been out for a date about a year ago, then he left. But now he's back and said he'd missed talking all cute with me. He tried to get back with me initially n we did. But now he calls everyday but he's very rude. He wants to know what's happening n where I am n we meet quite often but he's hot n cold. I don't know if he's playing with me or he wants to be just friends or more. Some help?

@ap
by: confused pisces

so i have a problem with my bull as usual. rite now im in new york and i havent seen this man as yet. idk wat is goin on with. idk if to just leave him alone or just hold on? ok so i came to ny from since friday nite and u know he didnt even txt or call to see if i made it in ok or anything.so i txted him and told him that im here all he said was OH. and later that nite he txted me and asked me if i wanted to see him on christmas day? so i said of course y not,he said ok he love me and goodnite.

@Virgo Girl
by: Taurus Guy

First off Im back on the thread after a very very difficult time in my life and starting over again....

I doubt he is playing with you but careful....sounds like you got a Taurus thats letting his sign rule his emotions plus maybe some baggage is along for the ride.

Yeah - Typical Taurus - again they want to be secure in their relationships and that means "owning" you - in a good Taurus you will have a confidant, protector, nurturing soul. In a bad Taurus - they will be mean, obsessive, controlling, and worse.

Good Taurus - he will respect your boundaries and give you the freedom you need to be you. It will bug him but he will keep his yap shut about it and try to restrain himself from asking too much or from smothering you in an attempt to win you...

This one sounds unstable to me - talking "cute" being a priority, mean or rude, needing to know where you are....that not right.

Bad Taurus - RUN!

@confused pisces
by: Taurus Guy

Wow - your still with your Bull? Sorry been away a bit and just noticed after reading back and Aphrodite Bull is like right on here.

Your situation is pretty intense but I got a few quick insights: (could be totally off)

This whole thing about the kid and the mom and the screaming and insanity drama etc....typical - a Taurus will endure that for years because they still feel a deep need to protect the kid. Sounds like your guy is in a tight spot where he is giving in when he has to but he isnt realizing he has other ways out while still proteting his kid.

if he been smacked upside the head enough emotionally then he may be in a head down endure anything at all costs in order to protect the kid.

He may even be doing this out of a sense of loyalty to his ex.

I did that for years - got beat down day after day but stuck with it cause I felt a obligation to stay to take care of her- thats without kids.

He needs to figure this out on his own but this could take a while.

If you want him - then offer him something that his other situation dont - stability, kindness, love and patience.

Be careful cause this could take a while - hate to see you spend too much time waiting on him when he may never find a way to come out of this.

So...did you see him?

Scorpio has me scared
by: Taurus Guy

So...I been seeing a Scorpio and lately things are looking good - I spent time with her at her house a few times and last time asked if I could leave a few things (its a long long drive but worth it).

I did that cause of course....I wanted to let her know that I want her to be mine. She said sure - so I did leave enough stuff that it was obvious I was coming back.

I also wanted to ward off any other competition - if there is any they are going to have to deal with my stuff being there. =-)

The problem is she has been hurt - very badly - in every way imaginable - by 4 other Taurus.

She knows in her head Im not like them - they are immature, selfish, stubborn and jealous.

It is hard to know that she is not yet mine and I am not hers when I love her so much but I understand that her past is going to cause a lot of trust issues.

I open myself to her as much as I can and - given her past - I allow her to fully explore every facet of my personal life - I have nothing to hide - no skeletons in my closet like the others did.

She is not as forthcoming and holds onto pictures and things from the ones that hurt her....I know why. She wants to remind herself that she felt trust for them and they hurt her - so she will not let her guard down. They remind her to be careful and not trust what seems stable.

When we are together I am careful with her but I cant help touching her with the "magic touch" and she responds like you would expect.....but it is scaring her to feel again and she shuts down afterwards - kinda hard and it hurts.

Day later after the first time she asked me how I knew how to touch her...it was my one indication other than while we were together that I was getting througth.

I feel so confused sometimes cause Im doing everything I can to show her that I am who I appear to be but she wont trust it yet.

Part one....

scorpio has me scared part two
by: Taurus Guy

I think this is going to be a long time and she might tell me to get lost - if she does I will - no arguments and no drama - poor scorpio has had enough of that to last a lifetime thanks to all those bulls who didnt just abuse her - they kept after her for years afterwards (as bad Taurus are apt to do - stubborn).

If I am not wanted I walk away and hope she finds someone better but I am afraid I am setting myself up to be a doormat and that scares the heck out of me. If she tells me to get lost and then invites me back a month later its gonna hurt - I cant deal well with that and I know I probably would go back but I gotta find a way to set a limit for myself to not be the guy who gets used.....

She wants to go out with her friends on New Years Eve and then invites me over for the afternoon of new years day which means staying the night....I know she is testing to see if I will demand she spend NYE with me or demand that she take me along but I wont do that - I cant....if she needs time with them then she should have it....But of course I am all insecure about it - she will never hear about that part. But it hurts cause I know she dont trust me and thats why I will be alone NYE....well not alone but not with her which is where I want to be.

I want to watch out for her and give her what she hasn't had - freedom to be her while being protected in a stable, warm relationship.

Time and patience I guess...I can do that but I wonder if a scorpio after being banged up so very badly can actually open up again...

@ taurus guy
by: confused pisces

no i still havent seen him and i feel i wouldnt.wat u said i kindah feel thats wats it is but he dont wanna tell me cuz he knows i'll leave him alone and i guess he doesnt want that.but if thats the case i will b waitin for a love passionate partner that will never come.i mean i tell him over and over about this situation and how i feel like he dont really care about me as much as he does for her but he never really tells me hoe he feels about the situation.and im gettin tierd of it rite now and i know he is too cuz he gets madd when i bring it up sumtymes.

@ taurus guy
by: confused pisces

and the ting is that when i ask him how he feels about me and if he tinks we have a future together he says he love me,needs me,care for me,and yes he do see a future for us.but im questioning that is he just sayin that bcuz he wants to keep me around or does he really mean it? u dont know wat i go through with this guy forreal. in the beggining it was never like this.i mean i felt like i found my soulmate.

@ taurus guy

@ taurus guy
by: confused pisces

i mean y all of ah sudden its a problem? this makes me feel like hes hidin something.and im loosing him.cuz i feel when it cums to tellin me things about his ex he holds back.idk y cuz i dont even know the gurl and never called her out of her name althouhg i feel she has cuz the tyme of person i've heard that she is.the sad ting is to she dont want me around the child.and it seems hes agreein with.cuz i cudnt even stay at his house bcuz his was gonna b there and he says sumtymes she cums to pick him up. now tell me how that sounds? talkin bout he dont want no drama and dont wanna loose any privelages to see his son.

@confused pisces
by: Taurus Guy

idk you didnt see him yet?

My opinion (could be off) is that he is stuck and he wants you but he dont know how to bring his life together with all the conflicting situations.

He is probably frustrated, humiliated, and angry that he finds himself where he is at.

I am guessing he is not intentionally stringing you along - in his eyes he is trying to do whats right and getting overwhelmed between his wants and what is.

I would let this one go - it might hurt but this seems bad for you and there are other people out there who would appreciate you and are in a situation where they can.

@ taurus guy
by: confused pisces

this would tear my heart apart in pieces.im actually wantin to cry rite now.cuz im givin my all to this guy rite now.being patient,loving,trying to understand wats goin on with this man.i really taught that we had someting goin.i mean i havent loved someone this strong the way i love him.and now lettin go will really hurt me real bad.i meAN I LOVE THIS MAN so bad its not even funny.and i know he do love me to but i seriouly cant wait for sumting thats never gonna happen,this is the last ting i wanted for us.butmimma have to suck up my pride,love and everyting and move on.oh my god i cant believe im sayin this.thank u very much i really wanted to hear it from a mans point of view.again thanks.

@ taurus guy
by: confused pisces

i mean isnt there someting i can do to hold on to my relationship with my bull? i love this man and cant picture myself without him.i know one day imma have to let go. but im not ready yet. any advice u could give me. cuz i know he loves me and doesnt want me to leave,cuz everytyme i try breakin up with him. he always trys to apologize to me about the situation.i know its hard for him cuz he wasnt expectin this to happen but he did it and he cant change it.again is there anyting i can do cuz i do want to persue a relationship with this man.

@confused pisces
by: Taurus Guy

I know...its hard as heck tryin to make these decisions....stay go - give another chance - wait it out - move closer - move further - move on....facing some of those challenges myself.

idk its up to you but you got my opinion on it....for what little its worth.

Seriously....you dont need the run around and like I said I dont think hes doin it on purpose or to be mean - hes in his world and as a Taurus from what little I know....Im not sure I could ever break out of where he is.

Good luck dear pisces and I seriously hope it works out for you whatever path you choose.

@confused pisces
by: Taurus Guy

mean isnt there someting i can do to hold on to my relationship with my bull?

Yes....

Keep offering him what he cant get where he is - peace, stabilty, loyalty, love.

Eventually he will probably find a way out - but like I said....that is a long road most likely cause hes stuck between responsibility and wants....and with Taurus responsibility tends to come first.

@ taurus guy
by: confused pisces

well i saw my bull today. and as usual they never wanna talk. but i got sum stuff out of him. and continuious i love you,kisses,and all...but still i must say im still a bit confused,but truely believe their cud b sumting there for us.but i wont wait forever for that to happen..so he will have to show me he really knows wat he wants to do about this. i know he has responsibilites,and i wont try to get in the way of that,cuz i know he will take care of it no matter wat.but i just want to know where i stand in all this.

@Taurus guy
by: Virgo Girl

So he's unstable. Does that mean I start running away from him? Or does it imply that I need to stick around and wait for him? I really wanna talk to him but I generally just wait for him to call instead, am I not doing enough? These days he doesn't contact me everyday and we meet less frequently. Bad sign?

@Virgo Girl
by: Taurus Guy

ummm....yeah run...away....now.

Actually just dont respond and he will go away.

Thing is he is hot and cold - ok fine - but the rude part concerns me. There is some kind of resentment there or something and well...sounds like you deserve better than being disrespected. You dont wanna mess with a unstable Taurus - or Scorpio....trust me you dont want that in your life.

@Taurus Guy
by: Virgo Girl

Now on new year's he wants to meet at 12, seeing that I can't he comes outside my place at 2 in the night, I was asleep but hahaha. Happy new years btw. Yeah so Im gonna be hot and cold too, why put in so much effort with little results right?
PS: scorpios are insanely difficult to understand but shit loads of fun to have as friends to hang out with! Lol I would know, my guy best frnd was one, before he stopped talkin to me for some reason that I don't know :S

update....confusion (@Taurus guy I need some insight pretty please!)
by: Lionessa

After not contacting my perfect Taurus for 2 months at all(this means I didn't initiate conversation, I didn't run into him anywhere, I didn't hear from him at all, no skype....I think he has blocked me or something) I've sent him a message last week saying that I could not just forget and that everything reminded me of us and that I'd do anything for him. Yes, I know....I'm a drama queen but I was honest. He did not replied as I expected.
Then on monday evening I went for a drink with my friends. There he was...djing on stage at the club we went to. My heart was giving me hard times I thought it was going to stop beating.
I am almost sure he did not see me from stage because of the lights. But still. When he finished with his performance he packed his things and was leaving. I went after him and called out his name. He seemed surprised when he saw me and he wanted to hug me (why do you want to hug the person who is not worthy of your contact...this confuses me a little)
However don't want to make it complicated. The biggest w00t for me was when he asked me if I saw that he was djing..if I noticed him at all?
I do not really understand why he asked that.
However we exchanged few words.
The feeling of this whole situation is really positive for me.
I feel great and free. I am really happy because I've seen him...can't really explain it. But I am content and I do not expect anything at all. I am happy he is there somewhere...it doesn't matter if not with me.

@Lionessa
by: Taurus Guy

You were honest....thats good cause you cant pretend to be who you arent or it wont work out in the long run anyways....as for the drama part....Typically a Taurus male loves to hear this sort of thing but not after a whole lot of nothing - theres nothing in the Taurus mind that backs up your assertion that you would do anything for him....so its just seen as drama for dramas sake....or he might think your playing with him.

Taurus.....slow, steady, reliable, grounded, nurturing - intimate to the extreme - sight, smell, sound, touch all VERY important to Taurus to develop a intimate relationship.

He asked if you noticed him - he wanted to hug you - theres something still there - slow, steady yes....but non-personal communication...not a Taurus strong point. So why so much e-communication attempts?

Why is this not going anywhere?

Taurus can get over the male friends - believe me - but they have to KNOW that there is nobody else in your eyes except him....this can take a lot of energy on your part because you DO have male friends so Taurus will shy away...your move. Do you want to have a relationship with this one? Not sure by the way you finished whether or not you really care - you care about HIM but do you care about BEING with him? There is a huge difference....

It dont matter who suggested e-communication - if he did then he is likely testing the waters - if you did he may see this as a brush off. What does matter is if you want him...This whole impersonal thing has to go.

The male friends...you have to be open about who they are and what they mean to you....and he has to meet them.

If this guy really is an old soul Taurus then its time for you to step up and get some steady personal time in with the bull. See him in person somehow without the emails, skype or whatever and ask him if you two can go out....dont ask him out exactly...more like suggest it without being unclear as to what your intentions are and stick to it - Taurus not only needs to know you will be there for him but he needs to be there for you in some sense otherwise he is going to see himself as an option...and will retreat (part 1 of 2)

@Lionessa
by: Taurus Guy

Part 2 of 2

So....what do you want Lionessa? Taurus are not as sure footed on rocky ground where relationship status is concerned - and this sounds like rocky ground to me (the time away, the e-communication).

I am dealing with similar issues - on the reverse side - I want my scorpio but she is not sending me the right messages - and its leaving me thinking about if she is serious or not. Taurus is not insecure by nature...jealous yes....insecure no....but Taurus does need to feel like there is no ambiguity when it comes to the relationship. You are his and he is yours - Taurus needs to know both of those are true. Talking wont do it - lovemaking wont do it - time alone and with friends wont do it - turning to them for emotional support wont do it - allowing them to jump to your defense wont do it - romance wont do it - time alone to miss each other wont do it - but all these things together will....not some but all. Seem like a lot of work? to a Taurus this is not work - it is life.

So I ask again....what do you want out of this Lionessa? Do you know?

Lionessa
by: @ Taurus Guy

Thank you for this detailed message.

Ok if I start with 2 months of nothing...I do not want to blame him..as I think I slowly scared him off with my emotions. But those are the facts:I told him I fell in love with him but he said I should have forgotten about that...and just be friends. He is also the one who stopped communicating. I tried calling him and sending texts many times...but nothing was turned back, answered in any way. He was ignoring me. So I guess there was no chance for me to suggest to catch up somewhere sometimes. And there's obviously no chance for him to meet my friends and see that they are no harm to him.
I know what I want. I want to be with him. I've changed my mindset...stopped doing drama.
I would gladly do all those things and I would be there for him and stick to him as I really care about him and about BEING with him. But I dont know what is the deal now..Does he care or what is this all about? Should I contact him now? I mean should I try calling him?

@Lionessa
by: Taurus Guy

Yup - you should call and lay it out in plain simple terms without the drama.

Call him - no long winded voicemails...if you leave a voicemail then make it short and say you were calling to say hi and ask him to call you back if he gets a chance.

If you get him - tell him - your friendship means a lot to you but you would like to date him.

If he says no lets stay friends - then you know...no chance.

If he says ok then dont have sex with him next time you "date" - instead keep it simple, drama-free, but not too surfacy...start over - get to know him all over again - fun sure - but not a party - keep it fairly intimate.

Not having sex will avoid the whole "friend with benefits trap" - if he dont ask at the end of the night then ask him - do you want to go out again? (avoid the sometime thing...and keep it light - if he says yes then tell him to call you - kiss him goodbye and thats it - if you dont hear from him in a few days then call him again)

Its a fine line - bulls cant be pressured into a relationship and they wont see you as desperate if you call them - even for second date - given your shaky start with him and the time thats gone by he likely will need to be pursued (not chased or trapped)

taurus man "needs time"
by: irish

After a year and a half of committed relationship in which my Taurus man had some major upheavals, (death of parent, move, job loss and turning 50), he began pulling away around holidays. Have spoken twice, in past 5 weeks, and he doesn't want to end our relationship, says that he needs time. Is he pulling a disappearing act, or is it true...I lent him some$ to get thru the job loss, which is over, and he's paid it back...in fact, he's just come into much money this month, so no longer a factor. Is he re-evaluating our future, or his without me in it? Last I said to him was "take all the time you need....light is on, door is open"

@Irish
by: Taurus Guy

Sounds like your handling it beautifully.

He may be evaluating his past present and future but theres nothing you can do except give him time and remind him that your there for him when he figures things out. If he disappears or outright cuts ties then theres nothing more you can do about that.

Sounds like he might feel like the ground gave way beneath his feet and thats not good - not stable - thats a lot at once and add the holidays....likely he is soul searching.

Time and space but letting him know your still there for him and want him is the way to go if you are ok with it yourself.

Beautifully worded....Take all the time you need light is on door is open.

I love it and I dont think theres anything else that can be done.

Ok...thank you for the advice the total insight.

Im trying to collect all the courage I have in my heart and pick up the phone, dial his number.
Even though I am really really afraid of the negative answer.
But I'm trying to think positive...
One more question. When a bull has decided not to enter into relationship ..how hard is it for him to change his mind? I mean, when does a taurus male change his mind..

You are really kind! :) ...so thanks again!

@taurus guy
by: irish

thanks for your support/insight. It is difficult to sit on the sidelines and wait, but from what I've read @ Taurus, and what I know about mine personally, I believe he wants/needs to work this out himself. I am a Virgo....very logical and analytical, but the relationship really works for us. I know no one can really answer the ? of how much time...very subjective, but he only lives a mile away....phone? stop by? Or wait for him to come to me??

@Lionessa
by: Taurus Guy

Typically a Taurus will not enter a relationship because either they are not allowed to love/protect/nurture/romance or because they dont see any long term future (usually based on those and other traits).

A bull can change their mind - but only when they are sure there is a future there. Bulls are stubborn but sensitive.

So - If a Taurus has decided a potential relationship is to dramatic or there is no real future there - they will change their mind if their mind is drawn back to the possibility and whatever their reservations were about have disappeared. If you hurt them by not inviting them into the circle of friends...then you would need to mention that you want him to meet them early on (not on the first date because thats about you and him unless he brings it up).

Tough with a Taurus because they dont tell you straight out what they are thinking.

My guess with this bull is that in his mind a relationship started that quickly went to the back burner because the intimacy was lost due to so much e-communication. If he started down that path my guess is he was testing to see if you were happy with that.

Only a guess....so think carefully about the origins of this encounter and where it may have gone off the rails.

and...thank you - you seem really kind to - he's a lucky bull if you two hit it off.

@Irish
by: Taurus Guy

Stop by....usually a bad idea when they want to be alone....

phone? Sure...often enough to let him know your waiting for him but not so often that he cant think...every few days maybe - NOT every other day. Keep it warm and inviting and understanding.

Waiting could be a good strategy but it could backfire to...

Under "normal" circumstances when a bull does this sort of thing they are just looking for a way out without any fighting. But yours does not sound like a normal situation - sounds like a stressed bull.

So yeah - try giving him a call now and then - see if he warms up.

@taurus guy
by: irish

There's not a lot normal @ our relationship. Have been friends for 8 yrs, and I rent him some space (commercial). We started dating 1.5 yrs ago in summer (his initiave)....parent died in April, and sibling started coming to "their" summer home every weekend, so we dropped down to 1 night a weekend @ my place, and maybe a breakfast middle of week. Never been big on phone. Been away on at least 4 weekends and had a blast... We had plans to go away in Feb (would guess not.

Previous to his request for time, when he started pulling away, not calling (but has always taken my calls)...I asked him point blank in very quiet tone, if he wanted it "relationship" to be over...response was, No, that's not what I want.

As much as I want to trust him/our relationship, not sure if his aversion to confrontation is leading this, or truly a time for introspection and figuring out his next step in so many directions.

His response to my "take time...light is on" comment was (with a smile) Pretty sure I knew that.

@ Taurus Guy
by: Lionessa

A little update... I think something happened today. No, I did not have enough courage to call him...but Ive sent a text message saying how good he was djing and that I am a little bit proud of him. It was a cool text..nothing really personal. I didn't get the reply but as it seems he unblocked me on skype.
Umm....I want to start all over again, meeting him slowly. And Im calm...do not want to rush and have everything in this moment (as I usually do). He truly means a lot to me...don't want to lose him and I don't want to let go. So I am prepared and willing to change my mindset, to control my thoughts and temper.

Taurus Guy...I thank you so much for the support! I appreciate your help very much :)

@taurus guy
by: irish

my gut feeling is that he is a man of deliberate action, and if I give him the time to get his life back in order, we might have a future. I cant fathom that he is lying about needing the time and not wanting the relationship to end, but there's a part of me that questions removing one of the only positive things in his life at the time(me!). Is it that he feels he has to come to the table his life in order, and doesn't want me to be on the sidelines during the process?

@ Taurus Guy
by: Lionessa

...it's me again. Last time I wrote there was an update and me writing about how calm I am and stuff.
Ok I still am calm, normal, more than content and I'm successfully fighting off all those negative comments being made by my friends about the whole situation. It doesn't really matter what other people think as long as I'm happy.
So ...since the last time I've gotten his reply on my last text saying that he was really happy that I liked his performance. Also while we had a short chat on skype last night he told me that he was happy when he saw me in the club.
I don't know. I feel there's something more that just the funny chitychaty or really friendly attitude even though everyone has been telling me to cool off and back off. (:() I want this and I want it to work....
I'm interested in your opinion as you are taurus yourself. Would you after intentionally not having a contact with certain person for almost 3 months express your feelings or something in this way? And if you would...what would this mean?
So what..is this "just friends" situation or is it "undefined still meeting each other" one. I guess I should treat him as a friend for now? Or? I don't understand this.
However the answer doesn't really change my mind or feeling. I still will feel the same...it feels right *blush*.

@Lionessa
by: Taurus Guy

He said he was happy to see you - that is a lot for a Taurus and would I express that to someone I was involved with for a time after intentionally backing away for 3 months?

Only if I was interested in a relationship.

Taurus are very reserved for the most part - saying something like that is very unusual for most unless theres more to it.

Lionessa - you really should call him and ask him out - stay away from txt and skype - you need to get close to him - if his physical senses are not in tune to you then its not going to go anywhere - and this is where he needs to be pursued and not chased or trapped - I will give you a personal example - someone pursued me recently after I cut them off for 6 months and they did it in a very subtle way - they invited me out to talk and when I asked them if they wanted to talk on the phone they said no but they wanted to talk - she didnt give me the opportunity to stay on the phone - she said she had to go and hung up and that we would talk about it when I saw her. She played it right and didnt give me the chance to hide behind the phone or the computer - When I did see her - everything changed for me - she was no longer an abstract thought or a nice memory - she was real again. She was very open verbally - She made it plain that she didnt want a one night stand and wasnt sure about how she felt about long term - that left it up to me to decide what I wanted out of it - I slowly and steadily pursued her - she encouraged me every now and then with a gentle touch when I totally didnt expect it - but she never lingered for more than a few seconds - just enough to let me know I was not wasting my time or emotional energy. Today she still lets me pursue - althougth really she was the one who pursued me (and still is - she does make it seem like I am pursuing her but thats not really whats going on...) Not sure if she learned this from our past experiences or if its coming naturally to her...but it is totally working for me. I dont know if that helps but just one example of how a Taurus can be approached.

@ Taurus Guy
by: Lionessa

Ok...I've tried calling him the other evening. But he wasn't reachable neither he has an answering machine. After that I fell asleep. It was very early...I forgot to log off from computer and my phone was set to quiet mode. The next morning I saw he contacted me on skype asking if I called him and then there was a text on my phone as well saying "you called".
I answered with text saying that I needed some information considering some books and stuff. Could not call as I had a very very stuffed schedule. He answered right away and that's when I wrote that I owed him a coffee. Did not get the reply.
Later that day....i accidentally dialed him while having my phone in a pocket. He obviously answered that call and I guess listened to me and my flatmate (who is male! damn....) having conversation. After wards I've sent an apology for accidentally dialing him....did not get anything back and I feel like everything is back to complicated again.
Don't know where it went wrong or am I just being in panic state of mind maybe? Is there anything I can do now?
Bah..don't really know what am I doing wrong.

I am really grateful for your advice and explanation of every situation. Don't know what I would do without the support you are offering!

@Aphrodite bull
by: Irish

Aphorodite bull...if you are still around, could I get your perspecitve. My Taurus male, 50, has had a lot of stressors in past year...see above. I noted in one of your answers that finance is a big issue...I lent him money, which he has repaid (all during this crisis time). My question to you...is he wanting to come "back to the table" so to speak with his life in order. Back in Aug,about a year after we started, he responded to ILU w/ ILU too....I've loved you all along...would his feelings have changed so drastically in 4 months??? I am ambivalent about whether this is the slow fade, or a genuine need to get his life back on track.
Appreciate any advice from you or anyone else who cares to post.

@ anybody with insight
by: Confused leo

Ok so I had a dream about my x Taurus. My x Taurus is still my friend on a social site I have, Forgetting that he was my friend on this site I posted “I had a dream about someone I don’t even want to think of ever again!! errr!!!!!” and a few minutes later I receive a message from the Taurus asking if it was him that I had a dream about? I responded.. nope…. And that was it. but then again last night I had another dream about him and I don’t know why he's stuck In my head!should just tell him it is him? or if I should leave well enough alone? I haven’t talked to him a couple months. Every once in a while he will send me a message saying hi, and my response is always just hi. Or he will send messages calling me a butthead and I will respond with the same. Should I tell him? Will it make a difference? Is he trying to communicate with me? Or is he just playing games?

@ Confused Leo
by: Lionessa

What I can tell you from my experience...( I'm Leo with Scorpio rising and deeply in love with a Taurus ) don't overreact, be cool, do not go all over him, do not be too excited, try not to expect anything and try not to analyze...if you want to keep your common sense. Otherwise you might get really hurt.
Even if he wants something he will want to know that you are stable and in normal state and that you are not leaning on to him again, making the pressure. Ok he contacted you...now let him show you what he really wants from you. Give that situation enough room to change if it will.

I really wish all the best to you and be patient!!! Please don't do the mistake we leos usually do!

:)

....
by: Lionessa

I know, I just posted a reply to you Confused Leo...and I seem smart in it but...still I am confused big time as well.
A lot of things happened during all this time. And now I'm again where I was 4 months ago.
So facts.
-Weve seen each other couple of times
-We kissed
-He seemed fine when we were together until this Monday
-He watched my first performance ever (on Monday)
-All of the sudden he's moving to his hometown because of some problems he doesn't want to talk about
-He told me not to wait for him (on Monday)
-I met his best friends and as it happens we are renting a flat together
-His friend says he is depressive
-Yesterday he came to my place when his friends came for a coffee and he left early and when I walked him to the doorstep he said "ok see you on Monday" like nothing happened and I hugged him

Come on...I did nothing wrong and come on what is this all about? I am totally confused. I still feel that waiting for him is the only right thing to do. But I can not calm my heart..Even though I know he feels something towards me and I know that what he says is not always true (I look at his actions) I do not want to put my head into sand. Any opinion is welcome.
I don't know what is messing his thoughts. And I wouldn't want to put even more pressure on him now. I guess I should give him time and space or something. It's making me sad..

HELP
by: Confused leo

Ok So I sent my Taurus an email telling him that the dreams I was having were about him. I really didn't expect him to respond, but he did. And he told me he was sorry for being such an A$$hole, that I didn't deserve to be treated that way, and how when he realized that the way he was treating me was out of line he was to ashamed to contact me again. Later I responded and told him that I forgive him. And he thanked me for that. After all of that I felt so much better!! But now I can't seem to get him out of my mind! I havnt tried to contact him since... But omg! I can't shake the thought of him! What do I do????? Do I continue to just play it cool and wait to see what he does? Or do I pursue him?

This Pisces Chick..
by: Taurus Dude

This Pisces girl at work is just melting my heart and we
barely ever speak verbally. But everytime something goes wrong at work, we always look at eachother and smile even though we are in complete opposite sides of the room. When we look at eachother, I feel just so... sorry I'm a Taurus so I am really poor at explaining myself but... man it just feels electric!

She has paler skin and just these beautiful watery blue eyes
and it almost hypnotizes me. It feels that we are so close and yet we know nothing about eachother. I don't even know what to do! I never felt that before!

My dream Taurus
by: Libra/Scorpio cusp Girl

After a year of seeing my Taurus off and on, I had recently found myself wondering if he cared for me.
I have found such insightful information in all of your posts.

Upon reading, it seems my Taurus man might just like me a lot. After a month of silence from a major misunderstanding on both of our parts, he came back to me, first in a long letter, asking to see me and talk. When he came over to my house that night, (incidentally for the first time ever...to MY place!) he showed me some tiny glimpses of my answer.

Little things, that if I did, would be nothing; his doing them, I'm thinking, actually meant something.
But I'll leave it to yall Tauruses to tell me for sure.

Firstly, when he got there, I was reserved. Thought we had gone through quite a few spells where he was MIA, this last one was the worst. I was a bit numb, thinking he had abandoned me for good.
Before we sat down on the couch to talk, he came up to me and hugged me, I hadn't hugged him at the door.
I have a very large L-shaped couch, he sat in the middle of one side, I sat in the middle of the other side. Through-out our talk, he got up twice, once to change the music, once to do something else. The first time he came back to sit down, he sat about 2 feet closer than he had been, and in the middle of the 'L'.
The second time he sat down, he sat down so closely to me that his leg hit my leg.
I was dead set against giving in that night, and being my affectionate self, because I was still hurt/numb.

My Dream Taurus (part 2)
by: Libra/Scorpio female

Against my silent wishes, he leaned over from his nearby position, and kissed me on the lips. "I couldn't believe the nerve of this guy", I said to myself in my head...but I secretly cherished what was happening. He was melting the permafrost that had entombed my heart that 4 weeks before.
He kissed my lips twice. I didn't give in entirely, I was a little cold, I just didn't expect to be dealing with kisses when we had things to resolve with words. Usually I can't get enough affection, and it's I who speaks in kisses.
Then he kissed my forehead. The rest of the ice on my heart immediately liquified and splashed on the floor. I was done for.
Trying to act normal and unwavering, I continued keeping him talking. He started talking about a skit he saw on tv that had to do with something I had just said, and he and I both began to laugh, and smile, and the air lifted, and we were cracking jokes. It felt amazing. I didn't know he had it in him to lift MY scorpion mood. I was not dealing with a light-weight. He is a simple, yet powerful force. Damn him. ;)
Before I knew it, I was facing him and running my fingers through his hair, and looking into his eyes. The light was brighter in the room than other times that we'd been together. We started talking about eye color, and I got to look into them deeply..what beautiful eyes. *sorry, getting distracted*..
Anyway, I think we kissed some more, I cannot remember. He had immediate reactions to our kiss, elsewhere on his body, and I felt good about that. I'm glad he couldn't hide it, either. I'm glad I wasn't the only one.
When we got up, and he was going to go home, he lingered, like he wasn't in a hurry. I put his arms around me and turned around, with my back to him. He just held me like that until I spun around and hugged him, and probably kissed him (again, I can't totally remember clearly after the forehead kiss) I was just so happy the barren desert of silence was gone and things were green and alive again.
He said he'd like to come out again sometime, and I told him he could come back for a picnic on my picnic table, or for a movie on my couch..
I wanted so badly to run out in my barefeet to him again and kiss him, hug him, and maybe even tie him to my bed, but I didn't. I just smiled warmly, and said "drive safely".

Anyway. I can't remember what question I had. Oh yeah...did he show enough little signs, that mean he does care? Sometimes subtleties are lost on me....but I'm learning to pay attention. Blame it on my ADD;)

To Aphrodite Bull
by: Solenn Wilson

MISS BULL, HELP.

I am a Leo Lady and He is a Taurus man.
so here is our story: me and this Taurus Man started as friends. We met since we have the same group of friends. at first, things were ordinary. until time passed, we became closer than what we are expecting. in the middle of our friendship, he confessed to me that he likes me. But since he is one of my closest friends, I got scared that if something will happen between the two of us, and if thing would not work out for us as a couple, i might lose him as a friend as well. I told him that, and so we continue being close friends and eventually, bestfriends. with these bestfriend relationship that we have, i can still feel that he still likes me even though we barely or we don't talk about it. and the story goes. in the middle of bestfriend relationship, things got a little steamy. (yes, we had sexy time together even if we are just bestfriends) we continue this act until i realized that it is wrong, and since we are bestfreinds, we talk about everything including the feelings he had for someone else. so apparently, i have to put things like sexy tme to stop. and so we did. but even after we put it to stop, we still continue being bestfreinds like what we always do. things were apparently okay, i believe that we became closer as time pass. but, as for my nature of being someone who is dramatic, at times, i give him dramas that could be out of the line. some because of my problems,some because of him because at times he is distant for some reasons that took us time to talk about, the reason which is me. in example, he said that he was distant then because he was torn between me and his precious special girl cause he has feelings for me, he said. so apparently, we talked, still be bestfriends etc. TBC..

TBC:

time passed, things became weird. he changed around me, he became slightly distant again. so i try t understand and waited for him to talk to me about it because i know he will. and thing happen, we did talk etc. eventually, he met thing new girl.he said, he likes this new girl, (he tell me stuffs like this since we are bestfreinds). he tells me stuffs about her etc. at first it was okay, i mean, i am happy forhim. but things got a little strange. things changed between the two of us. i barely see him, unlike before, i can't reach him cause at times he is with her, and again he became distant and indifferent with me. due to my dramatic nature, i told him and asked him this and that. i just want to understand why. but he denied that he is distant etc. and so things happened, i met this other guy, started to just have a crush on him. then i told my taurus bestfriend. to my concern, he told me he doesn't like this guy because of this and that. and i saw a bit of sadness upon his face.which immediately faded after some minutes. i just wonder why is he like that with this new crush of mine if he already have someone else as well. alalal, and things happened again.. lately, we have some arguements again, about the samething, why is he distant, in different etc. hay. any advice? why is he distant? is it because of his new girl? and with this, does he tends to forgets about our bestfriend relationship? am i really his bestfriend? i must admit, i might still have certain feelings for him, and actually, i miss having him for my own. i just need some advice, some clear advice on what should i do. this might include how do i get him back to how he was with me befor etc. but in general, what should i do now? signed: the Lioness :)

hope to hear from you soon, Aphrodite Bull.

To: Solenn Wilson (Lioness)
by: Aphrodite Bull

I'm going to be brutally honest...but this is just to help you out Sweetie. So please bear with me.

You're playing mind games!

People forget although Taurus natives are not water signs, neverthleless, we can be quite intuitive.

He is 'mirroring' your actions. This is not a good sign. When this happens, Tauruses are pretty much guarded. Expect a lot of disappearing acts!
He is trying to build emotional bridges with this woman. But he wants to know if he still has a chance with you. If you want to be with this man, it's time to call:

GAME OVER!

Let your guards down. He has let his guards down over and over again, and is probably beating himself up for it. BTW, we almost never do this. We're extremely cautious people.

If you come on to him. You better do it gradually. If you move in automatically, he may think you're just in it for the thrill of the chase, and may not take your demands too seriously. Taurus natives hate drama, or confrontation. So Ms Wilson, be prepared to be extremely patient with this man.

He will not offer his love willingly. You lost that option. He will take your interest into consideration, but he will continue to see this other woman. Why? He will continue to test your loyalty time and time again. He needs to know that you're not going to flake on him in the future. Remember, now he's guarded.

Here is where things will get complicated. If he continues to see this other woman, you will have to be patient until he chooses between the both of you. But you will no longer be permitted to see the man you're currently dealing with. It's unfair. But it is what is! So from now on, everything will be on his terms.

by: waiting pisces

Hello all. I'm a pisces fm wanting to love this tm i have knownhim for six months. I mean I tx him call him. He calles n tx me to but he don't answer all the time. He told me he wks a lot of hr at wk bcuz I have been trying to get a date with him since jan. I did have him over for lunch and he enjoyed it he said the next meal was on him but again he didn't do any thing. He always have to make it another day I never been intimant with him I did kiss him one time he say he likes me but I think he is scared of me he says he's not n if he was to get with me it would b goin down he told me to be patient cuz he has something to wk out and I have been just that I really like him. O buy the way I'm older than he is buy eleven yrs but he says that's ok we planed a trip to the florida keys this fall. I'm not sure if he want me in his life as a friend or lady I have told him how he makes me feel safe just talking over the fone. My question is do he like me or just leading me on

Miss Aphrodite Bull
by: Solenn Wilson

okay, it's me again. Apparently, you're right. Miss Bull, I actually had a confrontation with this man. You see, what happened is, according to him, is that I really pissed him off. he said I was already interfering with his personal life, that i was already treating him like what we have is something beyond bestfriends, that i assume too much but at the same time, I am numb. another thing, I can't believe that he could use such harsh words with me. I know i am wrong. i already took the blame for it. I really regret it. i am wrong. i already swallowed my pride. i know it's my fault, my mistake. and everything that he said, really hurt me - a lot. Another thing that he confessed is that, before, i did something for him. and he seem to appreciate it. he even told me that because of what i did, he will really want to keep our friendship permanently. then all of the sudden, he told me that that thing i did really pissed him off. that I am too interfering with his personal life. for me, "oh shit, seriously? so what happened to what you just said and did? are those lies? because then you'd be telling me that you hated it when before you told me it was nice." it really hurt. for me, he could've just told me. i don't want to assume that he's feeling this and that. and he doesn't want me to assume as well. so what now? then he toldme that he never knew that I could be that numb. Now i guess he is really pissed at me. Some say that once the Taurus is mad, he will treat you like a stranger or whatever. I don't want that to happen, i still want our friendship to stay. but could you give me advice on how could i have him back and/or on how could i do that? How can I make things work between us again? i just want to get him back and get things back to the way they used to be. i miss my bestfriend Taurus.

I need help anybody please 2 parts
by: Determined leo

Hi, I keep going over my problem in my head and it's driving me nuts! So if you have any advice I will be so grateful. My Taurus and I were never really an item just friends with casual sex, till about 6 months ago when de did his disappearing act for 4 months. Then he came back into my life by sending me an apology letter, telling me how he was wrong for just disappearing and how none of it was my fault and I didn't deserve it. So I forgave him, but i also told him that as long as he doest expect the "benefits" part of our relationship anymore we can still be friends. He said he was fine with that and that he wasn't going anywhere. We started talking and I told him about me joining the military (He was in it not to long ago so I figured he would understand).Instead he told me not to do it that he didn't regret it because it made him a better man,but that I'm already a magnificent woman that it's not necessary. I told him the reasons I want to go. so then he told me he would miss me and now he would like to help me with training. I told him that would be a great idea! One night he came over,we talked, and I made dinner. At one point he looked at me and said " don't go, you can come live with me and I'll take care of you." I said the reason for me going has nothing to do with money, and you know that! I want to go for the experience. He lingered on his stare a Lil then nodded his head. An hour later he turns to me again and says "I'll go for you so you don't have to go!" I said I'm going for me not because I have to. He gave me a look of frustration then looked away. Later that night he kissed me and I allowed that, but nothing more.

Please I need help! part 2
by: Determined leo

When he left he kissed me goodbye. He txt me that night "I missed you so much!" anyway we kept talking the nxt week. then he was having fam problems and I told him we should go out. the following day we went to an amusement park. We had a good time but he seemed a Lil anxious. I was asking him a lot of personal questions but nothing that was too envasive. He also explained to me about why he dissapears and that he needs to think things through. That he might eventually come back. He also hates crowds. So we left and he wanted to part ways to go home and nap then meet up later for a movie. I agreed knowing full well that wasn't going to happen (he is a huge flake). Anyhow he called me and told me him and his fam were arguing again. I said it's ok we can see the movie another time that I enjoyed myself that day and if he needed to talk I would always be there for him. We txt a Lil the nxt morning but he seemed distant and I figured maybe he was upset about the questions I was asking him the previous day. So I sent him an apology txt telling him that the only reason I asked those questions were because I wanted to know how difficult it is to be in a relationship in the military. And I was sorry for being envasive. I didn't get any response. Then I txt him a few days later saying ok I know you, and your disappearing again and that's ok take your time and if and when you want to talk to me again I will always be here for you. But that wasn't the end of it. I had so much to say to him from his huge disappearing act 6 months ago. I didn't want to say anything now because I was afraid he would disappear. But now that he had anyway I sent him a long letter. I told him how he made me feel, and how i wanted to be with him. how when he asked me to move in with him and he would take care of me I was so excited. And that when he came back in my life I was ecstatic but at the same time upset, because I was leaving. I said I didn't want him to feel obligated to hv to talk to me or feel pressured that I want a relationship because that's not what I want, I'm leaving soon and I wouldn't tie him to an obligation like that. And I ended the letter with I hope you get everything you ever wanted you deserve it and have worked hard for it. This was over a month ago and I havnt heard anything from him. Please explain to me what I did wrong? I want him as more than a friend but I would never ask someone to make that kind of commitment. But I enjoy having him in my life. Should I just forget him and move on? I'm so lost!!!

He wasn't being harsh. He was being honest. He saw drama and emotional manipulation and called you out on it! As I said previously, Taurus natives are highly intuitive and perceptive. We can see deception with our eyes closed. Undermining us will not work in your favor, Lioness. You kept referring to the preservation of your friendship. But lets keep it honest, you want more! If you want your Taurus to be honest with you, then you will need to be honest with yourself. Solenn, What do YOU want? Do you want a friendship or a relationship. Please don't attempt to combine the two. To a Taurean, this spells confusion. Remember, there are no shaded areas with us. We're simplistic people who see the world through 'black and white.'

Your Taurus already senses that you want a relationship, but you're playing "the friend who wants something 'more' game." If I see it, so does he! He's upset. But trust me, give him space, and he will get over it. We're loyal people who value friendship. But your friendship will never be the same. He knows what your 'hidden' motives are. When he does contact you, avoid being melodramatic, controlling, invasive, and manipulative. If you continue to do this, you will lose him for good!

by: Aphrodite Bull

1) How old is your Taurus Man?

2) Do the both of you live in the same city/state?

3) Is he working long hours? Two jobs? Self-Employed?

I think he's running game! He hasn't initiated one date??? Taurus men can be shy and some like to be pursued, but if all your emotional cards have been laid out on the table, then there should be no reason why this man is still hesitant. You were quite vocal about how you felt. And you expressed it to him.

He's testing the waters, and playing with you. It sounds like you're passing amusement to him. Why is he doing this? It could be a number of reasons.
My advice, shut him down. Tell him that you do not appreciate the mind games and that you're no longer interested!

before anything else, thank you miss bull. Thank you for all the help. :)

i will just like to clarify, when you said "Your Taurus already senses that you want a relationship, but you're playing "the friend who wants something 'more' game." If I see it, so does he!" what do you actually mean?

next is..
So, apparently, what you're saying Miss Bull is that, after the confrontation that happened, i should just give him some space, and a little more time to think and get over what happened? that i should just be patient with this? nothing more and nothing less? i am actually quite scared in approaching him. could you give me some concrete advice or just plain advice on what should i do?

scorpio woman wants a taurus man
by: Anonymous

So I recently started talking to a taurus male. He always caught my eye, but at the time he was married. Well he's now divorced. He would talk to me when when we saw each other out, just small talk. I didn't think anything of it at the time, cause I thought he was still with his wife. Well I found him on facebook and we started chatting, I got his number and we texted. I asked him if he was taken cause I didn't want to ruin anything. He said he was talking to someone, but he wasn't fully committed. He's not ready to put all of his eggs in one basket just yet, lol! Well after some more texting...I went out one night and he was out also. He is just so amazingly hot! He approached me the night I was out and well we hit it off and one thing led to another. I'm very into this guy. I'm just not sure yet if he is. I think he may still be getting over his ex, which is understandable. I just went through that. He did text the next day and we text here and there. Of course most the time I have to text him. I'm pretty sure he knows i'm interested, by some of the comments I've made. I wasn't sure if I should come out and say it, but I did and thought oh crap I shouldn't have said that, but he replied that he was having a bad day cause he went to church for his kids thing and sat with his ex for the kids and then her new b/f, which was one of his buddy's shows up. My question is? How can I get this guys attention? I know Taurus are stubborn and lack communication. I don't want to run him off by constantly texting, but I do want him to know that hey i'm still here and not leaving til you tell me to. I know they take things slow, but if he's not interested will he say so? I'm not a mind reader. What does the taurus man like? Does he like when a woman talks to him everyday? And what are some things I can say to keep him interested or into me. Yes I sound so vulnerable, lol. I don't wanna let this one go, but I don't wanna get hurt. ANy advice would be greatly appreciated

"i will just like to clarify, when you said "Your Taurus already senses that you want a relationship, but you're playing "the friend who wants something 'more' game." If I see it, so does he!" what do you actually mean? " (by Solenn Wilson).

Tauruses are quite intuitive and perceptive. We're cautious observers who weigh out all the mental pros and cons, and fact check everything in our heads (yes, our memory is impeccable). We're active listeners who listen for any inconsistencies. Trust me, your Taurus man knows that you want more than a friendship. So advertising "I want my BFF back", will not cut it!

The best concrete advice I can give you? Don't be pretentious about the position that you want to play with him. Tauruses admire Leos for their bold honesty. I'm sure this is why he was smitten with you from the beginning. Don't utilize this time to play the BFF role. This is not where you want to be.

My advice, give him space to cool off. Don't attempt to invade his surroundings or he will chaaaaarge at you again. Lol! Trust me, he will get in contact with you again. Provided that you be patient. When he does get in contact with you, tell him you want a relationship. You want to be with him. Don't be shy about expressing your feelings. Don't throw out that friendship BS! But be sure to tell him that you will step aside and allow him to continue pursuing the other woman. Tell him that you want happiness for him even if it's not with you. No pressure.

He will not give you an answer right away. But he will think about the possibility of a future with you. Just give him space to do so.

Although a Bull does not like to be pressured into doing anything, we ALWAYS want to know where we stand with you. So never be coy or pretentious about expressing your feelings.

Scorpio Woman wants Taurus Man
by: Aphrodite Bull

Your Taurus man may be smitten with you, but he hasn't built any emotional bridges with you. This will take some time. He just went through a divorce. Chances are, he will not jump into a relationship so quickly. Remember, "Change' is an ugly word to a Taurus.

What do Taurus men like?

1) Honesty (hates mind games, prefers straighforwardness).

2) Loyalty (admires women who possess those traits).

3) A woman who smells nice and looks nice (try a nice soft-scented perfume, and a nice spring dress that shows off your curves, modest, but not 'slutty').

4) Some vulnerability. An empathetic woman who cares about other people.

5) A woman who is passionate about sex. Taurus men prefer all-nighters, and at times (depending on his upbringing) can be quite nymphos.

So Scorpuo woman-
-Expect lots of PDA from this man!
-Lots of sex
-Lots of laughter ( these men have funny bones)
-Expect to be possessed. If it leads to a serious relationship, you're his...no one else's!

You did nothing wrong.
He's in love with you.
He loves you just the way you are.
His disappearing acts has nothing to do with you.
His problems may be family-related or financial.
He's not going to want to burden you with his problems. He explained his 'disappearing act' which is something Bulls RARELY do. We're private people. He wants to take care of you. He expresses that he misses you. He respects you. He needs to sort things out whether it be financial or family-related. But you're leaving for the military as well, so that's adding on to the sadness. Taurus natives, we're emotionally strong people. He isn't going to break down in front of you. He would rather isolate himself from you instead before you detect any weakesses in him.

Judging by your description of him, you're dealing with a hardcore Taurus. He dislikes crowds. Most of us do. LOL. Because you're dealing with an alpha-male Taurus, you might want to tone down the Leo Pride just a tad. Dealing with this man, you will have to be in the passenger seat every once in awhile. Not all the time, but when it's needed.

You have two options.

Stay and resume a relationship

Or leave for the military and keep in contact, but you will immediately be placed in the friendship category.

Good Luck-

@AB thank u! Just one more question please
by: Determined leo

AB, thank you so much for your advice, I am truly grateful! I just have one more question. He responded to me and he said that he will always be there for me and that although we were not meant to be together that he will always be my friend and that if I ever need him I should just reach out for him and he would always be there and that above all I have to keep in touch. My question is that when I come back ,and if we are both available ,and still friends, how difficult would it be to go from friend to significant other?

just to let you know
by: irish

posted above about my Taurus many asking for space. Apparently, they don't lie!!!! After 3.5 months, he came back, apologized for the break and is 100% back in the relationship. He just needed time to get his "life" back on track!!!!

"My question is that when I come back ,and if we are both available ,and still friends, how difficult would it be to go from friend to significant other?" (by Determined Leo)

Making that transition, for you, will not be difficult. You're one of the fewest people who have posted who made a graceful transition from casual sex, to getting a Bull to fall in love with you. Not an easy task when dealing with a Bull who prefers consistency. But somehow you mastered it.

He will see other women while you're gone. Real Talk! Bulls crave sex and physical affection. But I will give you some pointers on how to hold his interest. Arouse your Taurus man by appealing to the senses.

Please, please, no e-communication! Avoid this at all costs, as 'Taurus Guy' indicated earlier, this is the worst possible way to get closer to a Taurus. If he initiates it, don't follow. Call him instead.

1)Call him. Let him hear your voice. It's easy on the ears.
2) Send real feminine (no slutty)photos. It's easy on the eyes.
3) If you write him a letter, sprinkle your favorite perfume on the envelope before you mail it off. It's easy on the nose. A pleasant scent from the opposite sex is addictive!

Because you're away, touching, tasting, and kissing you will be quite challenging.

But I'm sure you will figure out something....

AB thank you!!

Miss Bull, one simple question. How do you get a Taurus man back? or how do you make him fall? You see, we were once best friends until we once had our own romance, though we didn't really had an official boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. but things are going so well, until one time, it got a little rocky. he said i interfered to much on his life and that i hope too much. at the same time, he also had another girl. he said he likes her etc. he told me this because we were still best friends. but then we had a little misunderstanding. he had to go to Europe to pursue hi career. we haven't talked for almost a month, until one day he emailed me. our conversation was okay, it is actually too okay up to the point that it is like nothing happened, like we didn't had an argument. i still have feelings for him though, and i am quite sure that he knew. or at least i think he does. what should i do? i'll be glad to have him back.

Will my Taurus man come back to me??
by: Loving Leo Girl

Well, this is a long story but I'm going to make it short, I am in a long distance relationship with my Taurus BF, he lives overseas, shortly after we met, he persued me endlessly, said that he felt like he was falling in love with me, said he had my whole life planned out, he was so persistant, so kind and loving, we saw each other recently for about 5 days, it was amazing, but I have had a bad experience before with a long distance relationship and I guess I have not healed from it yet and didn't realize how hard it would be for me to deal with all of this again.

I feel like I need some space in order to have a healhy relationship with him or anyone to sort some things out. Ive tried to talk to him about this and he tends not to listen to anything he doesnt want to hear sometimes. I had plans to go see him in September, but we have been having disagreements lately, its been really hard for us to be apart and sometimes he forgets to communicate with me at times because he is so busy with work and it makes me feel kind of bad, anyway, we were both frustrated, and I kept telling him I needed to talk and he kept blowing me off about calling me, I didnt want to bother him because I knew he was busy with work, but finally I was waiting at home for 4 hours for him to call me and I just lost it, I felt like he was avaoiding me, I became very upset, we got into an argument, he called me and saw that I was crying and he hung up on me. I sent him a message saing that he didnt deserve me if this is how he is going to act and basically ended it. I wrote him a letter (he loves it when I write to him), and I explained that I just need some time for myself and the reasons why I need to figure things out, while taking responsibility and apoplizing for everything and making sure he was aware of how much I love him and that I hope he loves me enough to wait for me to have this much needed space, he hasn't called or messaged me, I just sent him the letter today and nothing. It has been almost 3 days and we have never gone a day without contacting each other somehow in the past 6 months. What should I do?? Will he come back to me? He said that he is in love with me and wanted me to fly over to visit him and meet his friends/family. I love him so much and I dont know what to do, do you think he just needs time to cool down? Do you think he will call me if I back off? Im heartbroken, he is my soul mate..I cant lose him...please give me some advice...thank you.

I wanted to make a correction, when I was telling him that I needed to talk and he was blowing me off, I was at work and he was having dinner with his father, hence the time difference, he was still saying that he was at dinner when it was 1:00 in the morning (his time) I felt he was toying with me when he knew I was a bit hurt and needed to talk to him, and I couldn't understand why he was acting this way, I told him, I really need to get this out or I feel like I am going to explode, I have never said anything like this before and he said, look, dont push me or I'm going to explode and you are going to regret it. And thats when he called, saw that I was crying and hung up on me. I was totally shocked he did that..

sag female married in love with a single taurus man
by: Anonymous

First off before the hate. Been married since 20 yrs old. Never cheated, this took me by total surprise. Started out as friends...little flirtation..physically wasn't my type, but he was always with me at the bar...my husband was there...my husband said my smile changed when he walked in. The look in my eyes...bottom line I fell in love with him I didn't realize I was living content, not happy.. We Hung out one night. Gave him a ride home in May. Asked me in, said sure...next thing you know he kissed me, electrified is all I can say. I apologized next day I saw him. Never did anything like that. Not a cheat or floor although it would appear that way. We stayed friends just hanging out (husband always there but playing golden tee). His friend tells me he had a dream about me with the other man.. alot of mixed signals. See Taurus alone again in end of august. Just like before no more than kissing, replay. Husband finds out and threatens everyone. Now Taurus man wont talk to me even though I have told him I love him. I am willing to leave the marriage. heartbroken, he made me very happy.

I read your entire post(s)...all three. Please forgive my blatant honesty but if you do not stop what you're doing, you will lose him forever!

Two things a Taurus individual hates:
1) Being pushed...
2) Drama & Confrontation

He TOLD you how he felt about you. He SHOWED you how he felt about you. He's including you in his inner circle (family and friends). Working his @ss off to provide a future with you someday. You already indicated that he's made future plans with you. What is your problem? Please don't create a dilemma when there is none. Keep it up, and he will cut you off.

Why did he hang up on you when you were crying? Simple! He's a stubborn alpha male. No emotional meltdowns will sway his decision. If you continue to be confrontational and make threats, trust me, it will not be pretty. You will feel that wrath of the almighty Bull, and he will chaaaaarrrrge at you. Despite the calm demeanor, Tauruses have horrible tempers! Consider yourself warned.

Stop being melodramatic and find more constructive ways to utilize your time. He will love you more for it!

It's hard to win back someone that you never had in the 1st place. Your dliemma is tricky. There are way too many loopholes. I will need some more info....

1) Did you ever tell your Taurus that you were looking for a relationship?
2) When the two of you were fooling around, did the topic ever come up?
3) Is he still seeing the girl that he liked?
4) How old are the both of you?
5) Why didn't the two of you ever decide to become permanent?

He was toying with you, smitten with you, but had no intentions of being with you long-term.

Due to the fact, Taurus men hate drama and confrontation...

He simply just removed himself from the situation!

by: Loving Leo Girl

Thank you for your input, I understand where you are coming from, but please make no mistake that I did not mean to push him. If someone you love tells you that they need to talk, then you should respect them and give them a listening ear, not ignore it for weeks at a time and act like their request does not exist. Thats rude, disrespectful and thoughtless towards your partner. And what it does is forces your partner to supress their emotions until you push them too far. Communication is key in a relationship. I understand that Taurus men are very stubborn, as well as us leo lady's, but there is a difference between being inconsiderate and making yoruself busy..I also know that he likes to do things on his own terms, but sometimes you have to compromise to show your support to one and other. The problem here was that there were things that I needed to express, without being overly dramatic, but it becomes dramatic when your needs are not met, you have emotions bottled up inside and its sort of like a snowball affect after that. I'm not a needy person, I have always respected his space and never demanded anything from him. I dont think it should be too much for someone to give enough time to the person they love so they can hear that person out.

We still have not talked and as much as I love him, I know I cant be with someone who cant handle the truth of the situation and chooses to live with only their own stubborn ideas. From the beginning, this has always been all about what he wanted-he wanted me, he persued me and he has made it clear that he will have me and he has our whole life planned out. But not once did he ask me if that was ok, if it was what I wanted or what I wanted in my life for that matter. He just stuck with his own ideas and ran with it, after 5 months of dealing with this, I'm very sorry that I needed to talk...I must be a bad person for having my own individual ideas of whats important to me also.

He has still has not tried to contact me and its been 4 days, I didnt do anything to deserve this treatment, I know he is still mad and upset, but to completely shut me out like that, I just dont get it, I dont know if I should send him a message or just leave it alone.

No relationship is perfect, I have been a great person to him and if he loved me so much and is such a loyal and devoted person as they say with taurus, then this is something we should learn from, and know how to act/react when I need to talk and how much space I should give him until he is ready to listen. This is the first time we have had a bit of an argument, if he cant handle this then there are a ton of other things that will come up in life that he may not be able to handle either...I dont want to be with someone who reacts when the going gets tough, he gets going.

I really just wish I knew what to do at this point...because I am totally lost as to how I should act at this point..

Continued
by: Loving Leo Girl

Also, please understand that he lives in Europe and I live in the US, we have only spent those 5 days together on a vacation a month ago in the past 5 months, he doesnt communicate very often verbally about things and when he does, its only on his terms, so I never really ask to much, but Im going to need a little bit more reassurance than that to maintain a long distance relationship with someone...its just a really difficult situation to be in sometimes.

Continued
by: Loving Leo Girl

Also, I never made any kind of threats towards him once so ever or nagged him or pushed him at all, I was telling him that we needed to talk for about 2 weeks (just casually like, hey can you call me later when you are not busy or when is a good time for me to call you) and he kept avoiding it, making excuses and such, its not that the talk was going to be something bad or he didnt want to hear, I just wanted to tell him how I was feeling about everything, I should be able to tell my best friend how I feel, but hey after a few weeks of dealing with that, yes, I became emotional...its not so easy to have a relationship with someone just through text messaging..I'm sure you can understand that too...

I am deeply in love with a Taurus.
He's so...manly. He takes control. I love the way he walks, the way he talks. His hand movements. His facial expressions, how we can stare at eachother forever and have a conversation. The way he kisses <3, the way he touches.
His very patient. And confident that I need him (which i do), so he used to go weeks ignoring me, and then late at night we'd get together and talk under the stars. And it'd be worth it.
He's blunt. Never has lied to me. If he doesnt want to tell me something, he wont. I dont persist, as I think it annoys him . We want the same things in life. We bicker, playfully. When I get angry, his sarcasm, and attitude drives me crazy. I want him sexually all the time. He's so easy to love. He makes me so calm, and makes me feel like screaming at the same time. I'd never ever ever leave him. He's too perfect. I can't find a fault with him. I love how slowly, but surely, he starts spilling little secrets to me. It makes me feel trusted, and like i could trust him. <3 Taurus Men score a perfect 10 ^__^

Just a little more to the story since I wrote in first, he STILL has not contacted me, its driving me INSANE, sometimes in the middle of the day I just burst into tears, I have messaged him because I am impatient by nature (I know something I must work on), and at this point I have gone through all of the emotions and reacted towards them, I have gotten angry, mad, sad..felt like I wanted to get on a plane and either curse him out for shutting me out like this and then turn around and get right back on the plane, and at other times, I just wish I could look at him and tell him how much I love him. I dont know what to do. I have sent messages, saying now at this point to at least give me closure, to please talk to me and not shut me out like this, I see that he has checked the message, but he will not respond. He wont give me closure to move on, he wont tell me lets have some space or whatever...I cannot stand it that he is just shutting me out like this. I feel like a pshyco right now honestly. I dont know how to act, how to feel. He is showing his stubborness thats for sure, but its ripping my heart out. Yes, we have talked about me moving there and thats why I got freaked out. I had a really really bad experience relocating for a fiance before, I traveled overseas, lost my job, lost everything for someone..I never thought I would be in a long distance relationship again and when I met him I thought I was healed from my past, but all these fears started to come up within me and I started to act strange, couldnt really understand myself..so I figured out what it was, I was honest with him (my Taurus) I wrote him a letter and asked for a few months to figure things out but assured him that I just needed some time to work out these issues with myself and that I loved him very much and that this needed to happen for us to truly be together. He hasnt responded about the letter, nothing. Uphh, its been a mess. Now I am heartbroken and feel that I may have lost my soulmate...I have tried everything, but he will not speak to me at all and it has almost 2 weeks. Seems like 5 years.

Im just totally lost, I know I have to stop messaging him and just let it go for now, but its hard, and I'm not messaging him like crazy, just every couple days I will say something. I dont know what to think, how to act or what to do at this point.

Why is he ignoring me? Is he done? If so, why cant he tell me why or give me closure? I know he loves me, but have I ruined this? I really just dont know. Will he try to contact me after having some space? Should I just stop messaging him and move on? I was raging with anger and hurt the other day and I took off all of our pictures on fb and messaged him and said that it occured to me that he didnt love me anymore and I just want my life to go back to the way it was before we met. I know it was terrible, but this silence is making me go crazy and I am acting in ways that I normally wouldnt, my fear of loss is intensified by 10X because he is in another country and I just have no clue what to think... please, any advice would be wonderful, I am totally desperate right now.

hi after reading lots of post about other signs and taurus men, i feel quite funny because as a taurus woman i can totally understand what those [ran away] [hot&cold][Disappeared] Taurus men were up to.. i have the same problem.

When the lover suddenly showed too much determinations or too much affection i just backed off, did not know what to say back.
It takes almost ALL day to send a TXT message for me. Not just that, i get very frustrated when the answers are what i did not expected (so rather not to answer back).

i always loved beautiful people, hypnotized by their beauty, accidiently go and talk to them (it does not mean that i'm "in love". Beauty is Beauty, Enjoyable full stop).

Personally, i met a taurus man before for a month, he told me we had great time and i thought too.
it is quite true, both taurus man and woman never comfortable to talk about each other's relationship. And even with our own emotions it is never in our heads (emotional but can't find the reasons to talk about our emotions.)

when we were together, we walked around ran around eat drink touch chase played hold hands like children. Even the txt we shared were very much simple.
For us, txt and communication were not that important, b'cos we saw it as just a words game and we did not like spending energy on just playing games. Instead, we met up once in a while, get crazy about what we planned to do for a day, move around and do a lot of different things. This was ideal for us, b'cos we loved our job and still wanted to have fun sometimes.

Sometimes we dressed up differently whenever we meet, set an individual dress code and let the other one guess when we meet. Just small little fun , again like children :)

we shared Pictures or videos of what we like, saw and felt. Not much words. it is a great stimulation and spiritual connecting experience rather than boring dates. Although I overed a month ago, it was fun.

I am a leo women in love with a taurus male
by: Sarah

I have known this man for 9 months now and met him over the internet. We have only every seen eachother about 4 times, as he lives long distance. We used to talk on all the time, over the intertent but it kind of died a little. I have never stopped the contact, sending him messages every now and again. He to flakes alot. I do find it very difficult to cope with. He will go weeks with no contact and I mean 8 weeks or more and then I will get a message asking if he can come see me or if I am alright. When we first met I instantly knew we had a major connection because the way we are together. We have never actually had sex but we have had sexual encounters which we both struggle to resist. He has said he does struggle. He has a daughter who drops everything to be there for her. I respect him highly for this and I always let him know how proud I am of him for it. He is hard worker and works demanding shift patterns which leaves him with no time for himself and the bike racing he does at weekends, plus having his daughter. I am very paitent with him but I always try to let him know I am there,if he needs me. I try to give him space to, so I don't message him every week, even though I want to do that. He doesn't show his feelings but when I do have contact with him he does say how happy he is that I am keeping myself busy and doing well, he seems to like the fact that I am their with support when he needs it. When he comes to see me, he very rarely talks other than, how relaxed and comfortable he feels around me and one he always lets me know how warm and relaxing my house is, which makes me laugh. I am very confused with what he wants from me if anything. The only thing really that makes me think he does want me is the way he looks at me and touches me. Its like I can see that affection and love through his eyes. The last time I saw him, he opend up for the first time, this was only because again we struggled to resist eachother again but he stopped half way through saying it didn't feel right and that he didn't see me as a piece of meat or a one night stand. His words were I was very special. He actually said he had picked up women before, had sex with them but never seen them again, as for me he didn't want to do that because he said he liked me. Then said he was too busy for a relationship. I understood because under his circumstances he hasn't got time for himself let alone anything else. It confuses me. He left that night very happy and gave me a kiss. (I have added a second post below because I can't fit it all on one post)

by: Sarah

I asked will I see you soon and he said for sure. It has been 12 weeks now sinse I last saw him but in that time he had a bad accident while racing on his bike which left him with a broken leg in two places. The only contact I have had is through me messaging him but again he didn't respond until 3 weeks ago asking how I am and telling me about the progress of his leg. I asked him out right when he gets better will I see him again and he said for sure he will come see me when all is better and he will have a cuppa and a chat to see how I am doing. Well it has been four weeks and he has been told he could need an operation on his leg, because it hasn't healed.
My feelings for him have significantly developed. I told him I was in love with him and that I had been holding back for too long and I needed to tell him,it was destroying me. I told him by message because again its the only contact I have and I didn't know when I would see him again. I also said I didn't expect him to respond to this message knowing full well he wouldn't anyway, because of the way he is and that know doubt he would think I was a crazy woman and probably wouldn't want to speak to me again. I did say like I always say, I would always be there for him. Well I was right I so wanted him to respond but I knew he wouldn't and now I feel terrible because I am so worried by telling him I won't see him anymore or that I have freigtend him away. I don't know what to do if anything, because I don't want to push him, but I certainly don't want to be ignored either. Can someone please help and tell me what the hell is going on with this guy and if all I said was genuine on his part. What will he be doing with the message if anything and have I blown it, because I can't stop my feelings towards him I feel like an obsessd, crazed woman but I just want to spend the rest of my life with him. I am so lost with this now.

sorry to say, you pushed him away. He doesn't have the same depth of feeling for you, and now he will feel guilty that your feelings for him are so strong. In addition, you told him you didn't expect him to reply --- so he doesnt have to. You are about to experience the slow fade....although if he can go 8 weeks without contact, I'm not sure you really had much going. Just sayin'

Taurus Mess
by: Honey Bear

I could really use some advice. I will give you the short version. My taurus (40) and I (37) have been doing the back and forth thing for almost a year. By the way he is divorced twice .We dated for 3 months, then out of no-where I got an email where he told me that he couldn't give me the 110% I deserve blah blah. We kept in contact and didn't see each other any part of that time. I would drop off cookies at his desk and be friendly. He kept in contact with me. After almost 4 months, he texted me and invited me out to dinner. We had a nice time, just as no time had passed. Before I know it, we just picked up where we left off. Then he got a job transfer and moved to Florida. We spent all the time we could before he left. And he made certain to ask me, you will come see me. We work in the travel industry, so traveling to see each other is no big thing. Anyway, about two weeks after he leaves to Florida we are still chatty and everything seems to be good. Then a co-worker decides to meddle in our business. She sent him a text asking how serious were we in our relationship. Needless to say he freaked out. I got another email and I responded and told him how I really enjoy spending time with him and that I was in no hurry. He was good with that answer. I had a business trip in Florida and we spent some time together and it was a little weird. He would sit by me and watch my purse, then text me when he got home. But we hadn't seen each other in 6 weeks and no real physical contact. Just a kiss and a pat on the butt. He didn't ask me the next day what I was doing, had an emergercy at work and I had to leave. Didn't say goodbye, he tracked me down and texted me. Once I explained what happened with work he was fine. Since all of that... He has't been as communicative with me. No initiciating contact. If I text him or call him he will respond very quick. So I have no idea where to go from him. I think I need a Taurus translating guide. Can anyone make sense out of any of this...??????

I just don't understand the Taurus Man...
by: Passionate Scorpio

Hi There!! Okay, so I have known this man for about 1.5 years. For the first year we never saw each other because we worked together via phone. I always thought he was a very down to earth person with great morales and a good heart. After about several months of not speaking I met him at a social event. So we are finally seeing each other for the first and it was lovely. We talked and hung out all night as if know one else was there with us. After that we texted for about two weeks. He was always a hit and miss. There was on time when he didn't answer my text at all. So, one day I called him instead of texting him and we talked. We ended up getting together and had a very lovely evening. We were intimate but did not have actual intercourse. Skip to 2 months later. I have not seen him at all! I am so confused by this. He text me from time to time to check in on me and the last time he text me, he said that he would love to hook up when gets back in town and I have not heard from all...that was a month ago. So, I text him....no response. I called him...no response.

Question:

Why does he text me at all if he is not interested. And if he is interested why does he disappear and reapper by text and has not followed through on us getting together. Why not just not text? Please let me know your thoughts...Thanks

In Love with a Taurus Man
by: Leo Love

I will try to keep this as short as possible. I met this Taurus man in June 2010 very briefly at a hospital we were visiting a family member. He had just came home from Iraq. Anyway, i did acknowledge how cute he was and even commented but i never seen him again until April of this year. See my daughter's boyfriend is his brother and i went with my daughter to there house and that's when i saw him again. We began talking, had a few glasses of wine. All was very good. I found him to be very interesting and he seemed to be lonely and sad. The next day the parents invited me for a BBQ, i went he was there, we talked a lil more but i could just tell by the way he looked at me that he was interested. So, that was it, i went home and i have not been able to get him out of my head ever since. So i thought about it and convinced myself that i needed to reach out to him and let him know i was interested. I asked his brother to give him my number and to give me his. He did. and of course i contacted him a few days after with a text saying that i was very happy to have met him again and i would like to get to know him. We texted a few times and agreed that we would hang out and do something when i got back from my travels. Actually i went to NYC and i had learned he loved pizza with a special topping i brought him 2 slices. i contacted him the next day after i arrived and he came to my house and we had the pizza and wine! it was fun! We then went to the movies that weekend. We became intimate like 2 weeks after. At this point, I learned then that his B'day was coming up and that he was going to be in the army during his b'day. it so happens i had planned on going on a cruise the week he was returning.. so i surprised him and booked him to join me on the cruise (of course i asked him without giving up the surprise if he didnt mind going away with me) We went on the cruise and had a great time it was truly magical. I can just feel the connection when i'm with him and when he looks deep into my eyes i could feel that he wants me.

In Love with a Taurus Man
by: Leo Love

continued...
Anyway, we went away a few weekend after that. but at some point he became distant. We planned on going to MIA for 4th of july weekend and 2 weeks prior to that he stopped calling, he didnt respond to any of my text to a point that i didnt even know if he was still going. Then like 3 days before he texted me that he was sorry and was trying to get his pms under control!! haha!! i thought.. i remained calm and we went and had a wonderful weekend. i waited for a good opportunity that wknd to tell him how i felt about his lack of communication and that it would make me happy if he would just respond and tell me straight out that he's busy or just cant talk and that i would understand. Anyway, after that wknd.. he did it again.. this time i didnt hear from him for 3 weeks. Once again i was goint to be traveling and i had asked him to take me to airport. so i went to his house and texted him to please come outside and he did. I asked how he was and that i was sorry that i was there unexpectedly but that i hadn't heard from him in 3 weeks and i needed to know if i needed to find another way to get to the airport. He said that he would, he also said he missed me. of course, he didnt give any explanation as to why he hadnt called or texted and i wasnt going to push for one. I left it like that. I was leaving on sunday morning and he called me on friday to confirm and came and stayed with me at my house on Sat. which was the first time he ever stayed which surprised me. took me to airport and picked me up a week later and stood with me again the night i came back from my travels. I've always invited him to my house to eat or just to hang out and he says he doesnt feel comfortable (because of my kids) i had a BBQ that sat and invited him and i couldnt believe he agreed to pass by and he did. We had a great time and actually opened up to me a lil.

In Love with a Taurus Man
by: Leo Love

Continued...

let me tell you few things about him.

He currently lives at home with parents and siblings. since he's been back from the army he's been living with them. He's not working but is going to school. He hasn't had a girlfriend in over 5 years. He says he's very private and doesnt like to bring girlfriends to his house. (btw, i havent been to his house since we started dating) he likes to think as this as his escape. In one of our conversations, he mentions that he's not ready for a relationship and that we are not compatable at this point because of where he's at. Doesnt have his own place nor does he have a job. He's got some issues with his dad. He's sometimes has mentioned finding a job in another state, looking for his own place he also has said that he believes he was meant to be alone. That he doesnt mind it at all, no offense to me... and that he will not make promises that he cant keep.

a little about me:
i'm older than he is (by 10yrs) i have adult kids, i own my own home, car, have a good job and doing well for myself.

The past week he finally talked to me about his ex and told me everything that happened and how badly he was hurt. I can understand know why he hasnt been in a relationship since.

So my question is... do you think he's into me as much as im into him? i think he can tell how much i like him.. but i'm not sure if im just a FWB for him or something a more. He's a very nice guy, humble and calm and has potential and i know that i can help him be successful but i get the feeling that he doesnt want my help.

your response is very much appreciated!!!

insight please ...taurus are confusing.
by: leochels

im right there with you in the confusion. I have been talking to this guy for about three months now. He had my complete attention...meaning I was super in to him. Now im just confused and thats making me lose intereST out of frustration. At first we hung ou t and text or called each other as often as we could. He even made a cute nickname for me. Well we ended up having a pregnancy scare and he disappeared for a week. We ended up running into each other and he approached me to talk about the situation. He told me if i was that he didnt want me to keep it and he was sorry for everything and that he would like to continue getting to know each other. I swear he kissed me so passionately he pretty much had me at that point. Well i tried letting him know what the results were but wasnt able to get ahold of him. I ended up running into him two weeks later and we talked.he told me that he hoped we could still be friends. Well last time we hung out he started rubbing my back for me without being asked and held my hand and asked if he could kiss me. I told him no since we were supposed to be friends. Honestly i wanted to but i felt like it may be games at this point. Im still really drawn to him but not sure about his behavior. Im a leo if that matters. Any insight?

To Leo Love (poster above)
by: Aphrodite Bull

You're way to domineering, intense, and impatient. Three traits that Taurus individuals abhor! Keep this up and he will run for the hills! We prefer to move at our own pace. Patience is the key when dealing with a Taurus. Let him get to know you, and court you gradually. These men are very old-fashioned.... Don't be fooled by his age. They're 'old souls', and mature way beyond their years. But I'm sure you already figured this out due to his humble, calm, & gentle demeanor. They prefer to aquire their finances through their OWN means. Attempt to take over, and you will emasulate him....and then lose him forever. Remember the Taurus motto : 'I have." This is represented by possessions and aquisition. MY money, MY house, MY car, MY woman. Possessions complete him. This is why he is hesitant in pursuing a relationship. He hasn't acquired any of these things. When he's complete, then he procceds with a slow courtship. This man hates to be rushed!

To Leo Love (poster above)
by: Aphrodite Bull

Your Taurus is not playing games. As for physical contact and intimacy, it's in a Taurus' nature. Tauruses are very physical signs. What may be brought on by physical attraction does not automatically indicate longevity. Taurus is an earth sign. These are stability signs. Time will tell. But this will be left up to you. You may want to re-evaluate your movements. If you want longevity with this man, there are some things that you may want to reconsider.

1) Do you want to have more children in the future? Taurus individuals have a particular fondness for children. VERY NURTURING.

2)Are you willing to be EXTREMELY patient with this guy? Tauruses HATE to be rushed into anything. He will not budge!

3) Will you allow him to lead in the relationship? (not dominate the entire relationship, but lead). There is a difference. He's respectful. He will not try to dominate you, but he will need to know that he's respected in the relationship. In the beginning, he will be inflexible, and somewhat stubborn, but this will ease up after he's let you in gradually. He will adapt to your habits, and love you in spite of all your flaws. Yes, that's the true loyalty of a Taurus.

He may be contemplating these things...He will continue to be distant, hesitant, until he feels complete.

To:Aphrodite bull
by: Leo love

Thanks for your response. I didn't realize until know that i was being domineering and that's the last thing I want to be. I so understand the need to be complete and I want those things for him and I also know he will get there. I have a lot of respect for a man who can be honest enough to tell a woman that he can not be in a relationship until he's complete and in his own words he has said that to me. I guess I really wasn't listening. I don't want him to run for the hills, I want to give him the space and time he needs. I want to be patient, and I'm willing to wait So, what do I do? Do I take a few step back and stop texting him? Stop calling? Leave him alone? I just want him to know that I'm here for him if he needs me. You said he's not playing games? Are you referring to playing games with me or relationship?

To Aphrodite bull
by: Leo Love

I agree time will tell and i know that i must consider a few things if i really want this. The three points you made in your comments are very real and I have thought about them in depth. Because of the feelings I have right know I can honestly say that I would consider having another child in the future but time is a big factor due of my age. I can definitely be patient, at the end the reward of his love will
be worth it! I want him to lead the relationship, I need that balance. I guess it all make sense to me now, I can understand why the distance and why he's hesitant but what and how do I let him know that I understand and see his perspective on things? Know that I've considered all these things, I guess I need to sit back and wait.

Thanks again for your great insight and advice! Much appreciated.

To Leo Love
by: Aphrodite Bull

You can continue to be in his life. He may not admit it, but he wants you there. We love individuals who are willing to fight for us. Taurus individuals have very subtle, introverted personalities. You have to observe our movements.
And ALWAYS pay attention to the eyes. Even when he thinks you're not looking. Be supportive, but not overwhelming. He's a Bull. He will accomplish his goals. Bulls are determined and persistent. He wants to secure a financial future for his Lady love, he would rather die than have it the other way around, lol.

If you're conflicted because he's uncertain about a relationship, but yet he's very affectionate with you, don't be alarmed. Don't be taken aback by the disappearing acts either. This is the assessment period. Because we're stability signs, an evaluation period always takes place with a Bull. It's just not brought to the forefront, so a person is usually left feeling confused. This throws a lot people off. He's not playing games with you.

To Leo Love
by: Aphrodite Bull

The best way to assist a Bull w/o being overwhelming...

Bulls are usually too proud to ask for help, but being an active listener will help a great deal. Play it by ear. ASK him if he needs you to research some info. But never use the term HELP.
It sounds bananas. But it's the truth. Remember he needs you to be supportive, not take over. Tauruses like to reap the rewards for their hard work. We enjoy completion, and a satisfied end product. So Tauruses don't mind putting 100% into a project. Taurus is an earth sign as well as a financial sign.

Most Tauruses prefer to be self-employed.

My advice, be patient. The wait is worth it, trust me on this!

Aphrodite Bull
by: Leo Love

Thanks again for the wonderful insight. I will take all of your advice. Your absolutely right about the EYES!! since the day i met him i told him that his eyes speak volume and it's true. I sometimes think he knows what im thinking before i even say anything. He makes me feels like he understands me without even saying a word just by the look in his eyes i can feel it. It's a crazy feeling but i love it!! I will continue to pay attention even when he thinks im not looking.

Also very happy to hear that he's not playing games with me and wants me in his life because i really want to be there too. I will continue to be supportive and extremely patient as he reaches his goals.

When he's distant, do i just let him be until he resurfaces?

Thanks again!!

Aries women Taurus man
by: Anonymous

Hi! So i have known this guy for quite some time. He got stationed hours away in the army so we kept in touch through email and such. after 4 years of not hanging out we decide to go out and catch up. we had an amazing time. by the end of the night, yes we had a couple of drinks and he did tell me that I had all the power and he was hooked. So the kiss happened. After that, forget it.. its like we were both completely different poeple. In a GREAT way. Hung out for another 2 days and he has done all the sweet things previous poeple have posted. But can hanging out for only 3 days and hardly knowing each other really be a real connection between the two of us? He is constantly calling me adorable and cute, goergous.. even with no makeup on! Hes said that we probably cant progress because he is stationed so far away. Not sure a Long distance relationship would work. Anyway, he is gone to see family this week.. and I havent heard from him in 2 days. Although, I understand because of long distance and roaming charges from being in a different country. I dont want to seem needy to push him away, but i really want to facebook him or something. I told him I would miss his cuddles before he left. Am I going about this in the right way? Please help a girl out! I am an Aries but I love to be cherished.. I need SOME independence but I am not like the regular Aries' that are described. I am actualy on a Aries/Pieces cusp. Thank you all :)

He seems immature for a 41 year old, but honestly I also detect some immaturity on your part as well (no offense). The two of you have been playing this cat and mouse game for 3 years?

In his eyes, you appear aloof, and emotionally detached. He's playing games because he needs reassurance. You're not returning his calls, ignoring him, and yet you flip out when you see his ex. Which in my opinion, he did deliberately to get a rise out of you. He will not budge, or give in to you, he's a stubborn Bull. LOL. Set in his ways and very inflexible. He will watch you deteriorate emotionally...before he does. He will turn you into an emotional wreck until you give in. Not a very mature way to deal with this...but you're dealing with an unevolved Taurus. He will verbalize NOTHING, and when he feels threatened at the possibility of losing you, he will give you EVERYTHING! ( thus, explaining the hot and cold moments)

I will let you in on a secret about Tauruses. We secretly want to possess you...but also want to be possessed by YOU!

GRAB THE BULL BY THE HORNS!

Mark your territory, and claim him.

Tauruses differ from other earth signs. Virgos adapt, Capricorns initiate, BUT Tauruses are more 'fixed.' This means, at times, they would prefer for people to move around them, instead.
We won't budge.

Simply tell him this:
Look. It's been three years. No more BS. It's you and me, and me and you. No one else. If this is not enough, lets just cut ties. It's all or nothing.

He will commit to you. He needs reassurance.

He needs to know that you're a woman who is consistent, firm, and knows what she wants.

No more head games...

So what exactly do I do to get him to understand that im really in love with him and willing to do whatever it takes to be with him? I do demand respect..then I wanna know how do I show him that im not aloof and emotionally detached? I just want to be with him and give him my all and be in a healthy respextful relationship. How I do I handle seeing him with another woman or keeping my cool? How could he still think im not in love with him after that lol.. I was floored! Bit seriously he tells me love me all the time but some of his actions make me second guess things, im working on maturity..i know hes a real and a good man I wanna b the best for him..help me out chica!!!;)

i dont think he is ready to commit to me. I gradually say little things to initiate the conversation but he doesnt reply I think hes still in love with his ex and has to many women to commit to only me. I dont want to give up on him but what else do I need to do? How do I know if he is still in love with me and will ever want to be in a real relationship with me and hes so not verbal and we dont spend time like we use to its crazy cas ne makes me feel like if I try to talk to him then he blows me off or dont respond but at the sametime he gets mad when I dont jump to his freaky calls or text and he threatens to sleep with other peoplelike he probly is already doing. I feel obligated to him and I feel like he knows that im really in love with him but he feels like he can sleep with me whenever he wants but he dont have to commit, whew! Its frustrating because im a very attractive woman and he knows im very capable of having a good man commit to me but im so stuck on him that I will try to talk to other men and nust keep them on standby until they eventuallydisappear. I feel like im wasting my time waiting for him but its still a inch in me thats telling me to follow my heart..whats a giel to do..HEKNOWS IM IN LOVE WITH HIM and bes still ignoring the commitment part????? Help me again please

Okay, I think my Taurus guy is withdrawing again. This past week we've txt back n forth a few times which is rare. I asked him during the week that if he want too busy this weekend if he would like to hang out. He said he would see as a few things came up on his car that needed to get done I told him that was okay I know the car is priority but that if he wasn't extremely tired from working on the car that we could just chill at home we didn't have to go out and do anything. He said he would let me know. Anyway friday came around I didn't hear from him which was okay. ,my daughter ask me to drive her to babysit the cousins kids( remember my daughters boyfriend is his brother) so I took her I had only met the cousinh once same place and time I meet my Taurus man. She was very nice and welcoming. Okay, sat comes and I have to go get my nails done I take my daughter when my daughter tells me the mother wants to come get her nails done with us. Ok no biggie I go pick her up, I notice that my Taurus guy is not there which was fine as I don't like to go into the house when's he's there bcuz of how ackward it feels for both of us and he's told me how he's never brought a girlfriend home and doesn't like for family to know his business.

I understand and respect his privacy. Anyway my car needed an oil change and the father insisted that I take the car to garage so he can do it for me. I said ok but it would be later in the day after we got our nails done and I ran my errands. Okay later in the day the father calls and tells me to bring the car that it would only take maybe 30 min. I asked if my Taurus guy was there but was told thAt he wasnt so that was good anyway the oil change took longer that 30 min and I'm in the back room with parents just talking when he walks in, I wanted to die! The last thing I want him to think is that I'm invading or intruding in his world. He surprisingly said hello but didn't even give me a kiss on the cheek, he acted like I was a stranger and I was devastated and embarrassed because even though I don't go to his house and we are not publicly announcing that we r dating they know we are. So of course I was dying to leave and when the car was ready he came and gave me the keys, I said thank you and that was it!! He didn't say good bye, I did notice at one point as I was walking out of garage that he looked at me from the corner of his eye but it was quick. His mother and I left together and I took her home. That was it! I texted him later in the night and I got no response. I texted him this morning and still nothing.. So I called him and he doesn't pick up! I left him a message just saying that I was sorry for making both of us feel uncomfortable and that I take responsibility for it because I put myself in that situation but it doesn't take away how bad the situation made me feel and I was hurt. and that I want him to know that he's special to me and that my heart is open To him and I will be patiently waiting for him to come and make his and that I will always be here for him.

So... Do you think he may be upset bcuz I was at garage? And he didn't expect me there? Becuz I Went to the nail salon with his mom. It's not the first time I do something with his mom she's very sweet and she likes me.

Should I worry about this? You think the message I left him was too much?

What should I do? Any advice is appreciated!

Hi! So i have known this guy for quite some time. He got stationed hours away in the army so we kept in touch through email and such. after 4 years of not hanging out we decide to go out and catch up. we had an amazing time. by the end of the night, yes we had a couple of drinks and he did tell me that I had all the power and he was hooked. So the kiss happened. After that, forget it.. its like we were both completely different poeple. In a GREAT way. Hung out for another 2 days and he has done all the sweet things previous poeple have posted. But can hanging out for only 3 days and hardly knowing each other really be a real connection between the two of us? He is constantly calling me adorable and cute, goergous.. even with no makeup on! He said he would love to see me before he goes back. we didnt make concrete plans but insinuated that we would get together the next day. Next day came, no text.. and then he said he was sorry he was sleeping all day. ( had a 12 hour drive from seeing family) so I said " glad you had a relaxing day :) im going to bed.. totally pooped out.. night" he said again that he was sorry that we didnt get to see each other that day.. and so I didnt respond. He said its hard to find a women who is not a dormat.. but also not a bitch. that fine line in between. ive shown him my vulnerable side. My independent side.. and now hopefully the side that says " not showing up is not cool" .. Am I going about this in the right way? Please help a girl out! I am an Aries but I love to be cherished.. I need SOME independence but I am not like the regular Aries' that are described. I am actualy on a Aries/Pieces cusp. Thank you all :)

Gradually saying little things to initiate the conversation or throwing subtle hints will not serve you justice. Remember he wants to POSSESS YOU AND BE BE POSSESSED BY YOU!.

Three years is too long....Now, he's simply complacent ( a weak Taurus trait).

You will have to GRAB THE BULL BY THE HORNS, or you will be one stomped, defeated Bullfighter.

Be direct, firm, & persistent.
No subtle hints.

Tell him this:
"I love you. I want to be with you. But this game-playing is getting old. Look, it's me and you. You and me, all or nothing. Be with me, or simply don't waste my time."

Cowards don't win over Bulls.
Direct, firm and persistent Bullfighters do.

by: Aphrodite Bull

The messages you left him was 'overkill.' One should have been enough. LOL.

LeoLove-
It sounds like your reactions were stemmed from your fear of losing him. You're not going to lose him. Relax. Fall back a little. LOL. He hasn't responded to you because he was also embarassed and felt awkward. (which explained the quick glance). As I stated earlier, ALWAYS WATCH THE EYES!

He will withdraw temporarily. But don't panic. This will not last long. You were in his inner circle. (around his family members, his safe haven). His reaction towards you is normal. He is assessing right now. Which means he's analyzing the two of you. Give him space and allow him to do so. When he does contact you, just make pleasant conversation. And please...no more apologies!

You're doing just fine. A 3-day connection is just a physical connection. Tauruses are naturally affectionate people. It's in our nature. It does not indicate longevity. Only time will tell. In order to determine longevity, a Bull needs to feel safe and secure.

Feeling safe and secure encompasses these three things....
1) Reliability
2) Consistency
3) Honesty ( no head games, no manipualtion, no BS...be straightforward and direct at ALL times).

Without theses three factors.

He will keep his guards up.

...But so far, you're doing fine..
Aries can be impatient. But you will need to exercise extreme patience when dealing with a Bull!

Good Luck

by: thejazzy1

@aprodite I just want to thank you so much and I want to tell you that I have been following everything you all have said and MY HAVE THINGS CHANGED FOR THE BETTER!!! I asked him to commit and he said he would, I talked him about sending me mean text messages he stopped< i been consistent about keeping in contact with him and showing sincerity and he been accepting it! Everytime he starts his disappearing acts and i ask him did i do anything wrong he simply replies no baby i love you! I have observed that he that is observing me because i started talking about COMMITMENT! Now I feel secure with him not calling me or texting me everyday because I know I can get in touch with him WHENEVER I want! I offered to take him out to eat on a date to see how things go. I am so in love with this man! My last question to you all is when does the romantic nice taurus man kick in> Meaning when will he ask me to dinner dates and surprise me with gifts and treat me like im his woman? I am willing to wait and take it slow but I am a princess and i need to be treated like 1!!

Congrats!

He will begin to spoil you.
Give it a few weeks/ months.

You will be his #1 priority.
Pleasing you will be his #1 priority.
He won't be happy, unless you're happy...
Expect lots of PDA
Unexpected kisses in the most bizarre areas...
Supermarkets, drugstores, libraries
Oh...
And the possessive side...
Trust me
Every man in the room will know that you belong to him!
Expect generous gifts.
A very nurturing man.
A strong stable man...
A man who will endure all the hardships so that you won't have to.

Always remember to be
reliable
honest
...and consistent at all times

....Enjoy the ride....

Congrats to you Jazzy. I'm so happy that things are working for you!! The way im going i would not be surprised if he moved to the other side of the world!! LOL!!

Well he called me!! which shocked the heck out of me!! he said he recieved my text but that he was doing some community service for a ticket he received and was to embarassed to share that with me. Anyway, we hung out that day and we talked about how i was feeling. I told him about feeling bad that he didnt acknowledge me at the garage but that i understood why. so i asked him if he thought of me as just FWB and he said yes!! yeah... i asked for that one! so i told him that i didnt want to be just a FWB and he asked me what i wanted because the last time we talked about it we both didnt know. I told him that even though i wasnt ready for a committed relationship right now i did know that i eventually wanted one with him and asked him what he thought about that. He told me that he saw me as this great adventure and experience and that because love really never last he doesnt know and doesnt want to lead me on or hurt me. i asked him if he had any feelings for me and he said that i wasnt just a piece of ***. (not sure what to take from that)

Aphrodite Bull
by: Leo Love

Continued....
I then told him that my feelings for him were growing and that i didnt want to get hurt and that this whole incident at the garage made me think about all this. He said that he didnt want me to accept something that i normally would not accept. That the way he sees it is that when he's with me, hes with me and when he's not, he's not simple as that. So if im with his parents he's not going to pull me away from them so i can be with him. i told him that in a relationship there can be compromise and i wondered if he was willing to compromise with me on this. I understand and respect how he feels so i would avoid those kinds of situation but sometimes things are beyond our control and if he just acknowledges me by just a kiss on the check that i would be okay with that. He agreed!! which was a bit ironic because when i started talking i thought to myself shut up!!! he's never going to give in to anything!! Anyway, i told him that i didnt want to lose what we had and that i would be patient about us and that i wasnt going to give up! He said things like...maybe if he lets me go now i would get over him sooner, maybe if he was bad to me i would not be so interested. That he didnt want me to change who i am for him and if this really bothers me that i shouldnt tolerate it. (thats when i began talking about compromising) I asked him what he wanted to do know and he said lets just take it one day at a time, get to know eachother and enjoy eachothers company...

So... only time will tell if i just ruined everything or by being honest with him on how i feel will bring us closer..

i wish i would have seen your comments before i opened my big MOUTH.. but too late to take anything back...your thoughts?

@leo love
by: thejazzy1

Personally leo love taurus men are crazy! But its crazy how when u be honest they act funny with u... It seems to me like when I was a mystery to him he,loved me the most.. Ur taurus sounds like hes all over tbe place.. Like most taurus men it seems like they know when a wiman really loves them but it seems like tbey never let their guard dwn cas when everything is going good tnen they disappear. How do they want everyone to be honest with them and in my case my taurus is never honest with me about were we stand with eachother. I just say since you being verbal to him isnt working maybe fall back with verbal love and just be there for him at all times no matter what.. Dont tell him ur gonna be there no matter what just do it.. Thats what I decided to do because my taurus man disappeared on me and he not responding to me my calls or text for what..i dont know so I fall back and he will be back because he love me but im so in love with him I cant keep allowing my heart to keep being hurt everytime he wants to pull his disappearing acts or do something to hurt me. I changed everything that could be for the better for us and still he be on b.s but it dont change my feelings for him its making me stronger..hopefully he will come around just be there for him without being overbearing.. And verbal. Let me know what you think about this and ine last thing I believe if one way isnt working try simething else for the better of course!

so it's been 10 days since I've seen or spoken to him but it's weird because im not freakin out about it. I really think reading these posts and learning about his character and the way he works has helped me be more relaxed. My daughter told me this past weekend that he mentioned to her that he was trying to text me but that it wasnt going through. He also told her i was beautiful and i had my stuff together and he admired that. I found that to be really shocking as he's not the type to make comments or to talk about me at all and to my daughter at that!! but it did put a smile on my face :) . She also told me that his phone was disconnected and that he noticed when he was trying to text me. Anyway, I've been doing some thinking and i've decided to just sit back, fall back and just watch it all unfold. I just hope it doesnt take years!!! LOL!! i also found out theres some new financial issues that have come up with him so, im taking your advise and just let him be until he's ready to talk to me, or he misses me!!

Yep! Just be really really patient, if he really loves u he wont be able to stay away long.. I havent talked to my tairus man on almost 3 days and im not freaked out either!

thanks for that! at least you know he loves you, im not even close to that but i hope that it will develop in time. I know i really like him and i might as well enjoy whatever time i have with him instead of worrying about whether he loves me or likes me enough.

The Leo in me wants to just take over and make everything perfect for him so he can focus on me!! LOL!! but i understand that i can't do that.

confused about my taurus (boyfriend?)
by: scorpio89

do taurus men think that its all right to not see your girl friend for a full week or two? My boy friend would not come see me even though he say that he misses me and loves me and stuff. He lives 10 minutes away from my place. He says that he wont cheat on me and its been only a few weeks that we have started to exclusively date. Its amazing and magical when we are together and I know that he enjoys it too. He even told me that I should start spending nights at his place but then he never came to pick me up for some reason or the other. He had valid reasons every time for not coming but since we just started to date I feel like we should be seeing each other more often. In fact he ignores me more and gets angry when I start to text him too much. He asks me if i am cheating on him when i ignore him. Its so annoying. It feels like as if he is playing games. He texted me in morning that he wants to see me and when i asked him in evening about it, he just never replied to it.

Im gunna go insane plz help lol
by: Cancergirl

Aphrodite bull ......

You give awesome advice and i would love to hear your opinion of this .....Ok my taurus guy and i have been doing w.e it is we are doing for 6 yrs now. We were friends at first and he confessed he liked me and we both felt the same. We started hooking up but i never took it serious. We both had gf n bfs come and go but still held on to eachother and played our partners. It wasnt a every day thing but it happened a pretty good amount of times. He told me he would only cheat w me n he neva knew why but anyways. Randomly 3 yrs into this he asked me to be his gf. I said yes but later that day told him i wasnt ready for a relationship bc i just got out one. I know he was hurt bc he told me but i never saw him wanting to be with me coming, it was the most random experiance ever. A few months after i realized i was ready for the long haul w him n he rejected me obv bc of what i did to him. So i just let it go found a new bf n ended up w a baby. He was devasted but still refused to go anywhere and told me i better keep the baby. He ended up going away to the army for a year had a new gf but still spill his love out to me n hooked up w me on his break. I got rid of my sons father... he was a jerk n my taurus came home from the,armyy got rid of his gf bc he was "unhappy" n we have been back at it. He loves my kid. Hes just perfect. Now my dilema , i tried asking him what we were gunna,do its been 6yrs of this and he tells me he doesnt kno what he wants right now he just brokeup w his gf hes been away he needs to enjoy life blahhh obv i understand this hes only been home for 2 mnths but wen,i tell him i love him he doesnt say nuttin. he sees me like once a week

continued
by: Cancergirl

but still texts me everyday. im like going insane because he was so emotional to me before and now its like im getting the cold shoulder. and then when we are together its like nothing is more perfect. LOL i just cant figure out if hes leading me on or if he is going to be with me eventually and i should just wait for him to be ready. what do you think honestly? ive met his family and hang with his friends and all that stuff so i know im not a nobody to him but i cant figure this guy out and im a cancer and need TLC and commitment or else i gotta go lol thank youuu =]

To CancerGirl
by: Aphrodite Bull

He's in love with you but he's building emotional wedges between the both of you. A defense mechanism for self-preservation. Although his feelings for you are strong, he no longer sees you as a long term investment. Remember with Taurus individuals, we're cautious investors. The two of you were at this cat and mouse game for six years...and yet, no return was made on his investment.

CancerGirl-
Imagine this...
You're depositing money every week into your savings account. This is hard-earned cash. But you know that it will be worth it in the end. How would you feel if you walked right into that same bank, and the teller told you there was NO money left to withdraw?

You would feel cheated!

A Taurus takes this approach to relationships. We're earth signs. Stability signs. We take relationships very seriously!

Cancer Girl, Continued....
by: Aphrodite Bull

In order to begin building emotional bridges with this man, emotional unpredictability will not work in your favor! Say what you mean and know what you want. Cancers have a tendency to communicate and move sideways which will not work in your favor either. You want him, Be a DIRECT bullfighter and stand your grounds! Why?

This shows....
1. Consistency
2. Reliabilty
3. Certainty

This is how a Bullfighter tames a Bull!

Also Cancers tend to 'mirror' their partners actions. Newsflash, hon. Bulls do it, too! LOL. So if he's projecting unpredictability, it's because you have done so in the past...and continuing to do so. You thought a Cancer was cautious. Match that with the caution of a Bull 10X!

There is a great possibility for success here. You're already in his inner circle. He's not bringing anyone around his family members, so treading lightly will not be necessary. Good Luck!

@ aphrodite bull
by: Cancergirl

thank you so much hun! its good to hear that i have a chance lol i told him atleast 3 times now that im ready for more and i basically get the run around. i have shown unpredictability in the past but ive been trying so hard to show him ive changed by texting/calling everyday, trying to see him as much as possible ( without looking desperate) and i feel like im getting no where. i get the "i have feelings for you but im confused and i need to live my life right now" now i dont know if i should just back off because im starting to feel hurt by it. He still checks up on me daily by going on my facebook but i feel like hes hesitant to talk to me since he only calls or texts like a few times a week and i see him once out of the week. i know he loves me but hes so stand offish and hes never been like this. i feel stupid for telling him my feelings now. i honestly wanna go into my shell and cry LOL and its just sad knowing he isnt going anywhere, reguardless... i know even if i dont talk to him as much he will still reappear in my life. im staring to wonder if his minds still on his ex? i wanna hit him with the ultimatum - its either we are gunna be together or im gunna be all set with this and be ur legit friend but it might be to soon considering he just got back from war 2 months ago, right??? i really appreciate this.

To CancerGirl
by: Aphrodite Bull

Whatever you do...Please do NOT shell up, and isolate yourself from him through frustration. It will only worsen the situation. He's a Bull, remember, which simply means he will dig his hooves in the mud...and not budge! Honestly, out of all the zodiac signs (not being biased), Scorpios and Virgos have a great way of dealing with us.

Scorpios will claim their territory, stand their grounds, and provide a Bull with stability and loyalty. To a Bull, that screams marriage! The scorpions are NOT afraid of us. They will fight! They will sting a Bull before they get stomped over...but will never leave our side.

Virgos will observe our movements, adapt, and politely grab the bulls by the horns without being confrontational...Virgins have a subtle way of taming Bulls....How? Virgos are EXTREMELY patient....and they will not leave our side.

To CancerGirl (Cont'd)
by: Aphrodite Bull

My advice to you.

Be a DIRECT BULLFIGHTER and stand up to him. Fight for him! 'Shelling' up shows cowardness. And judging by the instability of your relationship with this Taurus for the last 6 years...this will come across as another act of 'flakiness' and 'inconsistency.' Thus, allowing him to become even more stubborn, while digging his hooves in the mud.

He's not in love with his ex. If he were, you would have NO contact with his family. Trust me. I'm willing to bet that his ex didn't have contact w/them. He's not checking up on you on FB...he's stalking you on FB. LOL. I'm a Taurus, trust me. Even if we're still assessing you, we're stalking you from a distance, but will still play hard to get.

'Shell up' and he will place more emotional wedges between the two of you...which would accomplish NOTHING!...

Take advice from the 'Scorpio' and 'Virgo' references. Remember, you're still in his inner circle. Work it to your advantage. Good Luck!

Im a taurus woman, 25 years and i think im in love with a taurus man his 27. Plus his a cop. We have knowing each other for 3 months and only gone out once.

To Aphradite Bull
by: Leo Love

I'm so confused!! I dont know what to think about anything when it comes to my taurus man. After not hearing from him for two weeks he finally texted me this past weekend. I left a post card on his car windshield last week, just saying hello and letting him know that i was thinking aobut him. He texted me and asked if I could pick him up. So of course, I did. We went away to the beach for the weekend and had a very nice time. It was fun and i was very happy and he seemed very happy as well. So, in conversation he asked me if i could do something for him. He wanted to surprise his parents by getting them a hotel for the weekend and asked if i could suggest a place and/or make a reservation for him. I did. I also had some add'l ideas for him to add to the room stay, etc. Anyway, i took care of it for him and it felt kind of nice that he asked me to do something. I dont want to read to much into this but could this be a break through? Anyway, that Monday when we got back from the beach he said he promised his cousin he was going to hang out with her but he never asked me if i wanted to go with him... He also mentioned that he needed to go to Miami this weekend to pick up a friend he hasnt seen in 3 yrs. and wasnt sure how he was going to do this since his car will not make it... i told him we can switch cars with me and he can take mine. I then asked if he wanted me to go with him and he said no becuase it was just him, his friend and the friends cousin (all guys). So, im not sure how to take all this..
Any thoughts?

Taurus Lover in Seattle

I dealt with a Taurus for four months who told me he didn't want commitment but that he loved me. I met the family and friends and he had me doing "wifey" like things but I was confused about what he truly felt. I made the mistake of talking to another male who happened to know him about my confusion and he found out and distanced himself from me. Never gave me a chance to defend myself. I apologized and he accepted it but I have only seen him one time, since the split, and it was purely platonic. I usually initiate contact to which he usually replies but then he sent me a text with a pretty random question recently. I answered him and some say he used that as an excuse to contact me and wanted me to initiate more but I did not for fear of rejection. I still love and miss him so much. Do I let him know or just let him be?

He's retreating and i dont get why
by: What do i do

Im a Scorp (24) and he's a Taurus (28) neither been married and no kids. So no drama there. We met on an online dating site abt 6 weeks ago and have been talking, texting and emailing everyday since then. After the 1st wk, we decide to meet. On that day, he cancelled because he ended up working late. We were both busy for the nxt few days so we make plans for the following wknd. We first go to dinner, had a few drinks then went for a romantic stroll by a nearby park. We kissed at it was amazing! No sex just passionate kissing. The next day we both confirmed that the chemistry was incredible. The correspondence continues but now even more intense. Hoping to see each other the following wknd, i was disappointed to hear that he had a last min trip overseas. I reassure him that I understood and we would try for the following wknd. While he's in Tokyo, he continues to call and text therefore getting even more intense. He finally comes back into town Wed nite, texting me to let m know he was home and he missed me. I forgot to mention that wknds work best for us as I work nights for the next few weeks and he works days. Now we're looking forward to this wknd right? Well a family member lands in the hosp and he flies out to CA. When he told me that I was so disappointed but understood that this was abt family. I txt him back telling him thats its ok and to just let me know when he got back and when he was avail. After that, it was as if I had said something wrong because he never called or text me again. Over the past few weeks I've tried calling and even txting him but no response...except for one a few days ago which made no sense to me. Seems like he was txting his brother and sent it to me by mistake. I quickly wrote him bak but again no response. It was almost as he just wanted to remind me he was there or to see if I would still talk to him maybe? Im so confused because although our time was limited, the connection we shared was amazing. Sounds crazy but I can actually see myself falling in love with one day. Now my question is, could this behavior be a normal taurus trait or was he no longer interested? Please help me.

He's retreating and i dont get why

I hope it's not too late, but whatever you do, don't lend him you car for the weekend! If your Taurus man does not ask you for a favor, DIRECTLY! Don't do it! He mentioned it in a subtle way, without asking because he knew you were going to offer. Leolove, with Tauruses, you will have to learn to show interest without appearing too eager. Stop trying to take over.

You offered to switch cars but he didn't want you to go with him. This other 'friend' that he has known for three years is probably a female, or a male friend or relative of a female he's interested in. Trust me, I'm a Taurus, I know how the game is played. Think about this LeoLove, there are three guys involved, and yet, no one has a reliable car to drive to Miami?

This is what you tell him instead. "I went home and had time to think about it. And you know what? I think you're playing me! I may be interested in you, but I'm not pressed to be with you. You seemed like a real, genuine nice guy. I'm starting to lose respect for you". Although we like to sometimes lead, we are turned off by 'doormats.' Stand up to him, and he will respect you.

To Leo Love (Cont'd)
by: Aphrodite Bull

He will be shocked when you call him out. But he will get over it, and will not pull that stunt 'again.' With Tauruses, one humiliation is enough. LOL. He will call you, but when he does, ignore his phone calls for a little while. When you do decide to respond, keep it brief.

He will do the pursuing from now on....
The push/pull will now be in your favor...

Appearing too eager with a Taurus is never a good sign. We will either do two things...

1. Dig our feet in deeper, and will not budge, or will look for the quickest, most convenienet way to escape.
OR
2. Use it to their advantage, and deal with you when it's convenient for them and them only.

Remember, patience with a Bull is very important.
I met a lot of men in my twenties that were too eager to please. Although I was attracted to them in the beginning, I saw their 'eagernes' as a sign of insecurity...or as a sign of a 'hidden agenda.' With Bulls, it has to be a slow, traditional courtship. Relax. Your actions sometimes is 'overkill.' LOL!

To: Retreating Scorp (24)
by: Aphrodite Bull

Relax. He hasn't cut you off, he will call you. LOL. This is normal Taurus behavior. Many of us are self-proclaimed workaholics, it's ridiculous.
Because we are also obsessive-compulsive planners, it will take him some time to 'key' you in his schedule. This will have to be a gradual process.

As for his family member, the situation may have been real serious. Because Tauruses are deep introverted thinkers, he will not convey this to you right away. Keep in mind, we're also emotionally strong people, so don't be alarmed if he is taking and 'bottling' everything in right now.

You're on his mind. Trust me. It's just bad timing. Once he gets over this 'hump,'...he will contact you.

Is he making money @ this club?

Looks like you're going to have to give your Taurus a good Bullfight! Your Taurus didn't commit in a selfish way. We are capable of selfishness without the committment. He would have figured out another way to keep you around. Trust me. If he agreed to a committment, it's because he wanted to commit to you. We're Bulls rememeber. The most stubborn signs in the zodiac. No one can make a final decision, but us! We're not easy to win over.

He still guarded for some reason. Your Taurus man (as most of us do) have trust issues. He clearly loves you, and wants to be committed to you, but for some reason, he doesn't trust you.

Jazzy, do you have any skeletons in your closet that you think he doesn't know about? We can be Master Detectives. You will never know what we're thinking...or what we already know!

You may have to drag it out of him...

It's too late that was a few weekends ago and i did lend him the car. His friend moved from NJ to Miami and he was going to see him. I really didnt think of another woman but you probably no more than i do. I havent heard from him in over a week. He spent last weekend with me and we've had no contact since. I found out his friend from Miami came to visit him this weekend and i figured that was why he had not communicated with me. 2 weeks ago i asked him to dinner and he responded with he was going to bday party with army buddies. I got upset because he didnt even think of inviting me and i told him that. After a week of non communication he called and said he was sorry, etc... anyway at this point I don't know how to react now that the thought of another woman is a possibility. Should i confront him on this anyway? what should i say? please help !!

Ok this is the thing.. Old friends have told him I was a hoe they told his friend I was a prostitute and his friend always say stuff about me and he has to take up for me the rumors are bad but I dnt know if he believes them or not also he told me I slept with one of his friends and I asked him who cas I know its a lie but he said what if I didnt know they were friends.

He's retreating and i dont get why
by: What do i do

Thank you so much Aphrodite Bull for you reply. Here's a quick update. I found out through a 3rd party that the medical problem with his family member has been under control for almost a week. I've reached out to him 3 times for the past 3 day (one day each) but still no response. I keep reading that one has to reassure a Taurus which is what I think I'm trying to do but I'm afraid of over doing it. I miss him so much and want to see and talk to him. Again, I keep hearing about the patience thing with a Taurus. So do I just sit back and wait for him to contact me and stop contacting him? I'm afraid that if he waits too long my natural reaction will then be to not trust to stick around for the long run. I'm sooooo confused.

So I saw one of the old friends of my mines but I didn't get a chance to talk to her about the negative things she has been saying to my mans friend so I tell my man I saw her buy I wasn't able to talk to her... iasked him should I b expecting any bad things from herethat he has said...he told methat he told his friend who the girl tells all the lies to which is also his friend that it could b true..my heart dropped in my stomacher I feel like he been playing me all along and that's y he doesn't bring me around his group or treat my special and treats me with bare minimum everything..I told him how hurt and disappointed in him I was and how I always had his back and its over..I contact believe he has been pulling me along with no intention of really being with me I'm so hurt and boggled I'm in tears I thought he really loved me. I tryed showing himthat those rumors were lies and he didn't give me the time of day to prove myself and wheni asked hint he didn't just ask me ifhe believed it and he saidcas he didn't but then he clicked over and never clicked back over or calledba k he has a women from outta town there I'm starting to think he neverloved me and it was a game and he laughs with his boy about it..he really hurt me

He's retreating and i dont get why
by: What do i do

Another thing is that most of my close friends are telling me that if I continue to let this go on, I'm only allowing myself to eventually become his doormat. Could this also be true? I can't take him hurting me like that.

This is what you tell him instead. "I went home and had time to think about it. And you know what? I think you're playing me! I may be interested in you, but I'm not pressed to be with you. You seemed like a real, genuine nice guy. I'm starting to lose respect for you".

Do not mention (and I repeat)...Do not mention the possibility of a female. There is no proof.

Tauruses hate it when their integrity is questioned.

After you tell him this, if he attempts to call you afterwards, send him straight to voicemail.

Wait it out a few weeks, he will continue to call you. When you DO pick up. Make casual conversation, but keep the phone calls real brief. Tauruses hate uncertainty!

He will start moving...and quit plodding in his domain. Trust me.

To: Retreating Scorp (24)
by: Aphrodite Bull

Tauruses DO need reassurance, but not in the way that Water Signs do. Rememeber, Tauruses love hard, but we love very DIFFERENTLY from water signs. We may not spend all day telling you we love you, but we will spend a lifetime showing you we love you (without all the emotional meltdowns, tears, and emotional awkwardness).

Reassurance from a Taurus requires a specific type of support. Loyalty. Being an active listener. Understanding us. Offering practical and helpful advice. This lets us know that you're in it for the long haul. You're in our corner. Crying and emotional meltdowns doesn't. We're practical, and very emotionally strong people.

Contact him once a week. Just to see how he's doing. He may be slow to respond (as we all are). The keyword with a Taurus is 'patience.' He will have to warm up to the idea of having you in his life. He will call you. Be patient. But continue to call him once a week. Keep it to once a week. 3x a week is overkill!

To: Jazzy1
by: Aphrodite Bull

I knew there was something! There had to be! His actions were very synonymous with a 'Guarded Taurus.' I don't think there is another woman ( if there is one, it may have been a one-time thing). He BELIEVES the rumors about you. He really loves you, I can tell you this much, but he is still guarded. Spending more time at the club (Tauruses are natural homebodies) is his way of preventing himself from getting hurt. So he's not approaching this relationship...Full Throttle.
He is building emotional wedges, just in case. If you did decide to cheat or walk away, he will be emotionally prepared to move on without losing himself in the process. We're emotionally strong people, remember.

I will be honest with you Jazzy, Tauruses, knowing how we are, it will take him some time to trust you. Right now, he's testing your loyalty.
Love me? Then prove it!

In terms of what to do. Well, this will be left up to you. You can either be patient until the trial period is over, or you can walk way...

Aphrodite Bull
by: Leo Love

Your awesome Aphrodite Bull.. I will do exactly as you say. I will send him a text and tell him exactly what you said and i will send him directly to voice mail if he decides to call me ever again. I'm not sure if he's really into me at all anyway so this will definitely be a deal breaker for me at least.

i've already made plans to keep myself busy for the rest of this month... i just hope he does reach out.

You didn't do anything wrong. You didn't know where the two of you stood, so you opted to exercise your options. Your Taurus does want a commitment..but unfortunately, most of us have trust issues. Your Taurus man understood your need to exercise your options. We're practical, remember. But I will be honest, he's still slightly hurt. He is not going to reject you. I highly doubt it. He is still responding to your texts.

OK so I do love him and I dnt and won't. Ever cheat on him how do I get him to see this and to reconsider being I changed my main line number on him..he still has a number to contact me on but I'm about to change that number whenever I remember the passcode..how do I make this into a positive prosperous situation and get him to trust me without him running me over and treating me like his ladywith respect I remember him telling me that he measures his lovefor me by asking himself if he never could never talif he doesn't give me a chance..should I b honest about everything like help!!! He has been clubbing every weekend since 08 he seems like he just not ready and he talked negative about me to his immediate circle no wonder he doesn't bring me around them..its crazy but we both love eachother hands down.. he hasn't called or texted and neither will I..please help

by: thejazzy1

I was trying to say that he told me he measured his love for me by asking himself..if he couldn't talk to me anymore would he b hurt? He said he would. I am so in love with this man I just need his attention to let me show him. How do I get his attention again and make him want me again we are suppose to be in a relationship but he doesn't want to talk about anything and if he does its brief and distance I know I love him because this is the most I have ever put into a man and as much as we have been through with any other man I would have BEEN gone. I just need him to open the door to let me show him and to put some effort into us..

Straying or Thinking?
by: Anonymous

I thought I read on here before that if after a Taurus male gets close to you, distancing himself or even dating others while he dates you helps him keep his perspective? Can someone speak to that a little more? I thought that my Taurus man and I were getting closer for good. He still seems to run and hide after getting close to me again. Yes, he eventually resurfaces, but not until after I've banged my head into a wall for days...sometimes a week or two. If I was not a stronger person, he would have killed me the first few months.

To Aphrodite Bull
by: Taurus Lover in Seattle

Thanks Aphrodite Bull. I will maybe send him a nice, practical gift or something. Besides that one thing, we never had a problem and he'd always comment on how nice things were with me. Oh well, wish me luck.

To:Jazzy1
by: Aphrodite Bull

Your predicament is tricky. As I stated earlier, we never fully commit to someone unless we're 100% certain that we want to be with this person long term. We're capable of 'selfishness' without the committment. LOL.

You can choose to walk away, but chances are, he's not going to let you. This is probably the best advice, I can give you. Cut ties with him. Cold turkey! Before you do, make sure you have a logical discussion about why you're breaking up with him. Don't hold back when you do. We respect honesty and vulnerability. It melts the heart.
Cut ties with him, which means no FB, texting, calling, or emailing. My advice, avoid dating for a couple of months. As I stated previously, we're Master Investigators. Chances are, he will look for alternative ways to keep tabs on you. Rememeber, you still need him to trust you.

When he does contact you, he will be a bit softer, gentler, more calm. He will know that you're not the one to mess with.

See, with Tauruses. We rend to treat a situation according to the way it presents itself. Because we're 'fixed' signs, it becomes extremely difficult for us to change our initial perception of you. But once we're convinced that you're not out to sabotage our 'hearts' and not put up with our BS! Trust me, we will become much softer, more vulnerable.

We will eventually come around....Something tells me that he will. He committed to you. He obviously loves you.

by: thejazzy1

OK so me and him ARE together he's showing improvement we he's much nicer but he has been testing me having me take him and his family places he has been opening up to ALOT but its just going to take time he has been really affectionate in public kissing me all time and just smiling at me saying he love me. He had to check his boy a few times for messing with me but for the most part he's communication is improving and I'm just taking it slow with him I treat him really nice I buy him things when I buy me things I look out for him meaning I ask if he eats if he needs anything and I also tested him last night.. we were suppose to see each other but he had to many drinks and fell asleep I played mad/silent role to see if he would yell or be really mean like he's bullying me to get his point across ....he was soft understanding and explaining and basically saying he love me and he didn't do anything wrong I was moved now what do you think? The rumors are still here but he knows they are not true.. I think he knows I'm his now.. I don't think the coast is clear but I'm seeing ALOT of progres were do you think his mind is now? Do you think the rumors are as relevant as before? Also he's been playing broke and I been holding us up..do you think he would use me being the rumors he heard? Do you think he's playing broke because he's spending on some one else?

To Jazzy1
by: Aphrodite Bull

He may still believe the rumors, but he's fighing against it. Thus, the main reason why he committed to you. He's not financially using you. Despite what they say about Tauruses in the zodiac, we're not gold-diggers at all. We're very proud people actually. This may be another reason for his insecurities as well. The fear of you leaving him for someone who is better off financially. He may be embarrassed. Lol.

Tauruses normally wait until they're financially secure to pursue a relationship. This may have explained the procrastination period as well. He may have had a big fear of losing you to someone else, so he committed to you. Remember, we NEVER COMMIT to someone unless we're certain! This is why Bulls are notorious for being slow. When we commit. We commit!

If he wasn't serious about you, he wouldn't have cared about the rumors or committed to you. He would have figured out another way to keep you around. Bulls are very good at that! Correction, very skilled in that dept. LOL!

Once a Bull does a background check on you, keep subtle tabs on you, exhibit jealous behaviors, & commit to you. He's in love! It's that simple.
There are no gray areas with us. We're WITH you or we're NOT WITH you. You showed him 'humility', therefore he showed you 'loyalty!'

AB - I want to thank you for responding to us with your knowledgeable advise. Your always right on and it really helps when your looking for answers. So thanks again for what you do for us on this blog!!

So..It's been 15 days since i've seen or heard from him. it's been 8 days since my last text. He hasn't even attempted to reach out to me. Do you think he will eventually? I refuse to contact him at this point. I've taken this time to really think about it all and it hurts to think i was being played. And although i may have ruined any chance i had with him i dont regret sending that text.

But do you think he will eventually reach out to me? how long do you think it will take before he does? it kills me to think that i wont even have the opportunity to send him to voice mail if he does attempt to call. It will probably be way over a month before he calls should i still ignore him then? I'm guessing if he doesnt reach out in a month it probably means hes not into me at all... your thoughts..

Hey ab... u were so right! Me and him is doing good he's showing major improvement and he's wanting to spend more time with me...I can't get him out the club but I'm more secure atleast for the moment.I'm not going to ask him to stay out club case he loves it so much lol do you think he would accept me wanting to help him financially until he can get back on his feet? Also do you think his circle of friends will make him feel uncomfortable? I know I make him happy thanks to you..(wink wink) lol fresh Taurus are REALLY. DIFFICULT LOL so now all I have to do is get him sexually addicted..I say this because he goes 2 weeks without having sex?! Ima Aquarius and we are borderline nympho lol but he don't seem like the type to b experimental he's more traditional so ima have to see how to make him comfortable idle but let me know what u think and ill keep you posted girl!!!! Thank you spoon much!!!

by: AlexandriaScorpio

O gosh, there is this Taurus guy that's edges me. I'm a scorpion cusp I'm shy old fashioned (in love expectations),well a brainy. He has these beautiful green eyes And evertime I catch him glancing at me, when are pupils meet it just so lust. I'm the first to break eye contact. On Friday, we where talking in a group I said something and he shut the other gal's lips just to listen on what my topic was about. And that girl was pretty, evertime I talk to him he makes eye contact and is always so interested in what I'm saying. When I talk to my friends in that classroom he's ready to just opinion in my conversation, and when I smile about something that he says he smiles to. He has this practical and political voice and green-green eyes and is a life guard c'mon who isn't going to fall for him. And he's dating a girl that is clueless,obnoxious,annoying,scandalous,RUDE, and doesn't know how to chew gum with her mouth close, last and certainly not least a harnet. Everytime she see's him talking to me she gets this anger temperment and fills her head with blood and leaves screaming. I kind of like it though :D I need help defining if he likes me or not!!!!!

Ok so i officially hate my taurus guy lol i took your previous advice but this guy is STUBBORN! He began speaking to me as if i was a sex object which really pissed me off. We got into a huge confrontation about it which turned into me telling him hes hurting me by not making me his gf and treating me like a piece of ass. I saw him once a month cuz hes always oh so busy. Then had the nerve to tell me i should wait for him to be ready for a gf cuz i will never find a guy like him. Who does this guy think he is? I dont think he appreciated my response of no i waited long enough because he told me ITS over, im just thinking what did we have to be over lol our once a month sex boohoo. So i assumed he wasnt going to talk to me anymore and he text me again last night, i just ignored him cuz idk what to do with him anymore. What do you think? Lost cause ?

I told him its that and several other things and that he's just not the 1 for me... he got quiet then he said.."OK" in a pleasant voice like he was relieved then we both hung up..I texted him all the reasons why it was over he told me how hurt he was going to be and how hurt his. F3elings was.. he said it in an accepting tone. He never once said how he was willing to change or anything. He loves me but he's not in love with me.. I just want a regular relationship and he's not giving me that he's giving me 30%. Where do I go from here?? Cold turkey? Also immune text I told him that I hope he finds a woman up to his friends standards and I wished him lick and best wishes. He responded don't sell yourself short I think your 1 hell of a woman... this is the first time he spoke on how he felt about me..I was impressed the only catch is his actions show me differently he doesn't treat me special I feel like its just over. I don't want it yo b but it is.. he pinky seared he would never leave me and I know if I want to go back I can but he's not going to treat me special ill get the bare minimum I want closure to why he treated me so rough and cold but I don't want yo bother dhim even though he stay at home most of the day he seems so busy like he doesn't have time and if we for spend time.

Aphrodite Bull,

okay i think i've lost him forever!! talk about overkill.. wait to you hear what i've done!!

okay so on the 21st day of no communication and after 14 days since i sent that text he never responded or even tried to reach out to me. I've been missing him so much that i was even dreaming about him.. i had a dream that he whispered that he loved me in my ear! i was missing him like crazy so i decided to text him and tell him that i missed him.. and i did.. well he never replied by the time i left work i had all these emotions and feeling really messing with my head. i went and texted his brother to see if he was home and asked him to please tell him to meet me outside his house. Well when i got there his brother told me that he said he wasnt coming out. My heart dropped and it felt like a knife went through it i was devestated as i never thought he would have done that to me. I left thinking okay i got what i came for and i guess this is it for us. 2 minutes later i get a text from him saying " sorry to drunk right now dont want you to see me this way" i was beside myself and i flipped out - i could not believe that after 21 days of no communication i try to see him he rejects me and now he wants to text me!!! OMG! i was pissed!! i cursed him out via text i tried calling but of course he didnt pick up nor did he ever reply back!! i texted him the following day again pretty pissed off. i asked him to talk to me that all i wanted was closure and i would leave it alone. i told him that his actions spoke volumes and that i took that to mean that whatever we had was over and that if he didnt want my love i was sure that someone else would. That was the last of my texting saga!! lol!

i dont understand any of it... how do you go from spending a beautiful 3 day weekend to no communication at all and then rejecting me like that. i feel so sad and hurt and dissappointed and i dont know what to do. My feelings for him are very strong and i dont want to let go.
I was told that his male friend (daughter confirmed it is a MAN) from NJ who moved to Miami has now moved in with him & his family this past weekend. It seems like his focus and priority is on his friend and i will probably never see him again..

I feel bad about the way i reacted to his rejection and cursing at him and saying some ugly things to him. He probably thinks im crazy and never wants to see me again.

what do you think? is it over? what should i do?

please help!

I am back. You seem to have a real understanding of your sign so can you provide me with more insight? I posted before about my experience with a Taurus and you answered. Most recently I was traveling but before I left I texted him that I miss and love him always and he replied back a day later saying that my message was strong and asked when and if I'd be returning. Almost two weeks later, I sent another message on our anniversary just saying how he has affected me in a positive way and how I still look up to him and how he motivates me. I didn't anticipate a reply so I am not hurt that he hasn't. I need closure with him though so how should I proceed? Do I just figure out how to have it without an in depth discussion with him? Tauruses seem to not like emotional displays and I know if I sit down with him to rehash what happened, I will surely cry and he may shut down. What should I do? I love this man like I have loved no other. Thanks in advance for your help.

Taurus Guy

Im a Pisces girl(18)and I've been seeing a Taurus guy(21) for about a month. When we met we really hit it off and it seemed like we clicked. After we met, we didnt see or speak for about a week.

We met up once, but he seemed really distracted. I was upset by how he acted and didnt want to talk to him anymore.. a couple weeks later he texted me out of no where. It bothers me how he changes from day to day. We hung out the next day and he was soo sweet.
We sat and talked forever and it just flowed so well. We ended the night with the sweetest kiss. That night he called me and we spoke for a few more hours. It seemed like he wanted to speak to me forever. It was great! This was a friday, well he texted me saturday, we made plans for sunday then he bailed. I didnt seem him for the rest of the week, and he shot down any attempt I made to talk to him. I asked him if something was wrong and all he said was that we needed to talk.. I was sure that we had no hope and that he wanted to tell me whatever it was we had was over. But he didnt, he called, and when i missed his call he texted me twice saying he was sorry for the past week.
I was so happy he acknowledged me that I couldn't be upset. But now he is doing it again. He is so distant and it seems like he has his own agenda. I feel like I'm not important enough for him to make time.
I think we have potential, and i dont want to give up on him. But should i text him? or let him be? Will he find me annoying if I bugg him too much? I never know with him and its so confusing! Help!!!

So Ive been seeing this Taurean man for almost a year and I cant lie to you I do love him deeply. Our relationship to me has been a big lie and deceit. He was seeing other girls when we first started talking and he even seen some when we actually got together but because i cared for him I stuck around. Now Im pregnant from him, a child that he intentionally gave me ( dont understand that one). Now he "claims" that he is not seeing other woman and its all about me and him now bt I cant trust him, so I resent him and find myself arguing more than I want or need to. Im still very unsure about him because he does and say things that i absolutely hate that im dealing with. Now Im all out of things to do to make our relationship work or to get him to act right. So my qusetion is what should I do to get him to see that I am one foot out the door if he doesnt straighten up?

Aphrodite please help....again
by: He's retreating and I don't get why

Ok so since my last entry you were 100% correct in that he did reach out to me. Three weeks later but he did as if nothing had happened. I let it go and didn't question his "absence" because I really missed him and didn't want to push him away. He told me how much he missed me and couldn't wait to see me. Gullible that I am I make plans with him only to have him cancel on me the day of our date. I again reassured him that it was fine and he told me that he promised that he would make it up to me. Well 3 days go by and I don't hear from him. I sent him a message asking if he was interested in making plans again and when a day goes by and I don't hear from him, my impulsive Scorpio side came out and wrote him saying that he was obviously no longer interested and basically ended it. Now of course I'm kicking myself because I do miss him but I'm not sure where to go from here. Pleeeeeaaaaaase help...how do I get him back without seeming super desperate?

I'm not an expert in Tuarus men but I've learned a great deal about them since dating one for the last few months.

I've never had my Taurus guy bail on me on a date but he's certainly dissappeared for weeks at a time. They go MIA but they do resurface. Let him miss you! fall back a little and give him space and time he will come around if he's really interested and when he does just keep it light and friendly and BE EXTREMELY PATIENT!!

Being Patient is key here with Taurus men... they dont like change but they do adjust gradually...

They hate drama, confrontation, or unpleasantness of any kind. ALL Tauruses, male or female will tell you that.

They hate to be rushed. H-A-T-E to be rushed. ALL Tauruses, male or female will tell you that.

"They give you their hearts, and ask for very little in return.

They only ask for patience.

Give them time to get there. Don't make threats. Back us into a corner. Make situations difficult for us. Bulls crave peace and harmony, and we hate confrontation. "

Bulls are real slow, slow, slow to initiate!

Attempt to rush us, and we will run, run, run!

Those are some tips that were givin to me and it so true...

good luck! and be patient if you really are interested in this man.

"Then he had the nerve to tell me I should wait for him to be ready." (Posted by Cancer Update)

He was being serious. No kidding. Real talk! When he texted you, you should have responded. Now he's going to question your sincerity. Why are Cancers so impatient? LOL. Cancers demand, don't get results right away...and then POOF! Shell up and disappear.

Bulls are very practical. Curse us out, yes we retaliate (we're bulls afterall) but we get over it after it's sunk in. When he contacts you again. Pick up the phone. Tell him that you sincerely want to be with him, but not under those terms. He has to come to a compromise. You're wiling to wait patiently. He's busy. Bulls are compulsive planners. We're rarely impulsive. He just needs the time to fit you in his schedule.

Take advice from LeoLove
She cursed him out, stood her ground, but didn't disappear. We ALWAYS resurface. Trust me. We can get stuck in ruts, but sometimes need a good old fashioned kick in the hiny! You just need to be assertive and patient enough until we come around.
You did a good thing by letting him have it! Where you went wrong? Shelling up and being incognito!

We don't like emotional displays or meltdowns. We see that as emotional instability. But we DO crave emotional vulnerability. There is a difference.

Emotional vulnerabilty lets us know that you're in control of your emotions, but that these emotions are still very much visible, alive and present. We don't want an icebox. But we don't want an unstable person who is going to create drama for us either.

Emotional Instability lets us know that at any given moment, you can fly off the handle! This creates anxiety within us, fear, guilt, confusion, and uncertainty.

You showed him emotional vulnerability. So, no, you did NOTHING wrong! LOL. You can relax. Just give him time to allow your words to sink in. Remember, we're slow, very slow to initiate.

To Jazzy1
by: Aphrodite Bull

He didn't let you in the club that night because he's insecure. You were looking hot. Pardon the expression, LOL, and he still has a certain level of distrust for you when it comes to having you surrounded by other men. The 'I love you, but I'm not in love with you' is B%llsh*t. As I stated previously, we never commit to people unless we're 100% certain. It's all or nothing with us. Which probably explains why he was upset and hurt when you broke up with him, but pretended to be relieved. Yeah right. It's a cover up!

When we're in love. We can be some very jealous, insecure people! Just the thought of you looking at someone else (even if it's innocent) can send our insecurity meters running. What you see is not always what you get with a Taurus. Especially when it comes to the matters of the heart. But yet, we're blunt and sarcastic about everything else! Go figure!

I would let this one sit for awhile. He still has those insecurties in his head. He loves you though, I can guarantee you that.

He will resurface.

To: Faith (Confused Aquarian)
by: Aphrodite Bull

Have you ever heard of the saying for Taurus individuals...?

Our mantra: "I have"

If he intentionally got you pregnant, it was obviously so that he could keep you for the long haul. He clearly sees a future w/you. We're possessive by nature.

As for the playing around, every unevolved Bull goes through this stage. Heck. I did. LOL. Remember most Bulls are fairly attractive people, nurturing, and have mastered the art of seduction. Seducing you into submission. But it's all a confidence booster, considering at times, a majority of us at a young age, can be quite insecure, jaded, and bitter from past experiences. When we're young, we're often too naive, too trusting, so when we get older, we're often guarded. Allowing just a few individuals into our inner circle. While keeping other individuals at bay, protecting our hearts, and experiencing what it's like to be the heartbreakers instead. This is why Bulls are often perceived as heartbreakers.

He may be telling you the truth. Only time will tell. But my gut instinct tells me that you should give it a shot.

Avoid coming on too strong (as Scorpios tend to do).

He will resurface.

Bulls are practical.

When he does.

Let him in.

Don't avoid him

Patience is required with these signs

To: Alexandria Scorpio
by: Aphrodite Bull

He's shy and reserved, probably a little insecure. He will not approach you. But he's defintely smitten with you. He's a textbook Taurus, 'defenders of the underdogs.'

So of course, more than likely his girlfriend will not be in the picture for long. Although she's attractive, she represents everything that a Bull despises. Why would he be with her then? Simple, she'a an attractive woman who strokes his ego. But this will soon dissolve once his confidence level is up.

If I were you, I would approach him in a friendly, non-threatening way. Always watch the eyes with a Taurus when you're communcating. His demeanor will be slightly evasive, preferably sticking to topics like politics, history, and etc, while keeping his feelings to himself.

But trust me, his eyes will give him away every time!

To: Pisces Girl (18)
by: Aphrodite Bull

You have nothing to worry about. He just has to incorporate you into his schedule. As LeoLove indicated, Taurus' respond to gradual changes. We hate sudden changes. This may take him some time, provided that you be patient.

But he's defintely smitten w/you....

He's retreating and I don't know what to do
by: Scorpio 24

Thank you so much Pisces girl for your insight. I haven't heard from him at all though. Do I just sit tight or give up? I know I shouldn't of over reacted but unfortunately I did and now I'm stuck wanting him back but I'm so afraid that I've pushed him away forever. If I reach out to him I'm afraid I'll seem desperate right?

Welcome back Aphrodite Bull!!

I've certainly miss you!! Well i have much to tell..

So after 25 days and me cursing him out Finally LOL!! Part 1 -Oct 21st..

He text me and asked me if i wanted him and if i can go pick him up... i waited a while to respond but i did... it was ackward at first, i asked him why he was doing this and he said he didnt know. We talked for a bit. He said a few things that lead me to believe that he does care about me. and i could see it in his eyes.... i think he's scared and very guarded. I asked him if he just wanted me for sex and he said no but that right know he couldnt give me anything else because of his situation. he began to tell me how i could do so much better than him and that he didnt deserve me. that i was beautiful and kind and sweet and had it going on for myself and he didn't know why he acts like that with me. That he was stupid for not knowing what he wanted. i assured him he wasnt stupid but that i understood he needed to get his stuff together. I told him i couldn't be his sex buddy as i was already emotionally involved in us and i did not want to get hurt. He understood. I told him that we could be friends without benefits and that i just want him to be happy and that i will always be there for him. that i just want to love him only if he would let me and that i would wait until he was ready. I told him that if he continued to reject me and push me away that eventually it will happen and if he didn't want to be with me to just let me go. Although he didn't say it to me his actions proved he didn't want to lose me. He also said that every moment we spend together he's always had a great time and that we have great memories. I asked him if he would be willing to compromise and he asked what was i thinking. i told him that i wanted to spend more time with him that once a month was not enough for me, i told him i understand we both have lives outside of our relationship but that i needed more time with him and what would he say about seeing each other every other week, to my surprise.. he said yes that he could do that.. that even though things come up unexpectedly he would make the time for me. then he asked me if there were any rules.. and i said no... i dont like rules! haha! then i asked him if he had anything or any rules or things he wanted me to stop doing or start doing and he said no all he wanted was me!! and i told him he already had me.... So... We spent the night together and it was absolutely amazing as always! So only time will tell.. I think we've taken a small step in the right direction

am i ahead of myself thinking this guy may really like me and he's just too afraid and not ready because of his situation?

Part 2 - Halloween weekend!

so.. i went away this weekend to NYC. The last time i was with my Taurus man (September) i had asked my Taurus Man if he wanted to go to NYC for the Halloween weekend with me and he said that he couldn't go because he had family that was coming from out of town. I said okay and made arrangements accordingly. Anyway, since a month past without communication i never had the chance to tell him i was going to NYC. And when he finally reached out i forgot to mention it. Anyway, my daughter was at his house and was talking about my trip this weekend so he knows now... Since we've been seeing eachother, when i travel I've asked him if he can take me and pick me up at the airport so that i dont have to spend all that money on parking and he can watch my car for me. Anyway, i texted him this morning knowing it was a last minute request and he said he couldn't do it but he wished me luck on my trip and asked were is this place thats lucky 2 have me... i thought that was so sweet however, i know for a fact he knew where i was going. I suggested leaving my car parked at work and if he could pick it up from there and he said yes that he could do that.

do you think he was upset that i didn't mention my travels earlier? i wonder did he ask me where i was going because he wanted to see if i would tell him?

by: Leo Love

Part 3 - 10/31 -
So I went on my trip and had a nice time however, i really did wish he would have joined me. Since he did the favor of looking after my car for the weekend and saved me some $$ I went and bought him a gift (cologne) which he seemed to like. He picked me up from the airport and we hung out for a few hours at home. Of course, we had the best **** as always!! but he didn't want to stay the night.. which was a little disappointed but he said he had to go home. I'm starting to think he just wants me for sex. The last time we were together we had made a compromise that we would see each other every other week which would fall on this coming weekend. I'm worried that because he saw me this weekend he's going to consider that the weekend. should i say something? or should i wait to see if he reaches out to me? i wanted to plan something for us but i don't want to be disappointed...

Aphrodite Bull
by: Leo Love

Part 4 - 11/4

He owned up to his end of the compromise. He called me early in the afternoon and we talked aobut what we were going to do the weekend. I didn't hear from him until late in the evening. he texted me from his brothers phone saying he lost his phone and if i can go pick him up. so i did.

I had a wonderful weekend with my Taurus man. He stayed all weekend and we had such a great time. We went for massages which was amazing.. went to dinner, drinks and a movie.. it was very nice to spend some quality time with him and actually do stuff together. So he left and of course i hate to see him leave because i dont know when i will see him again. haha! Anyway, i went online that night and was on facebook. he doesnt have FB but his father does. I was on there looking at pics when i came across a very interesting picture. Looks like it was taken in xmas of 2008. It was a picture of him and a girl at his cousins house at a dinner table. The other pic was in front of a xmas tree and his parents and siblings and cousin and this girl was in the picture as well. I know this was 3 years ago but because i know how much of a big deal it is to him to bring a girlfriend around his home that it made me think wow.. this girl must have been pretty special to him. So know i'm confused. As far as he has told me.. his last relationship was 6 years ago and he was hurt very badly... this picture was in 2008 only 3 yrs ago.. maybe this is just a friend and i should not think anything of it... i want to ask him about her but im not sure if i should? with the holidays coming up i wondered will he ever invite me to a family dinner? should i expect to spend the holidays without him..

Aphrodite Bull
by: Leo Love

Part 5 - 2 days ago....

I've decided not to bother asking or inquiring about her. This was obviously in the past and I am going to leave it there..I thought about it really well and i think that if she was or is so important to him he will eventually tell me about her on his own. I'm not going to give it that much importance as I don't feel threatened by her and wondering and worrying about this person will only take away from being confident in who and what i am as a woman. I dont want to waste my time and energy on things of the past. does that make sense to you? i want to enjoy my time with him and allow our relationship to grow naturally without worries or insecurities, etc...

This weekend he opened up a little more to me.. he told me about school and what he would like to do when he's done and where he would like to work. He actually asked me if i can assit him with creating his resume. He talked about having his own business and i was so happy and excited for him because he was happy and excited.. it was great to see him feel good about himself and of course i told him i would support him all the way and if he ever needed me that i would be there for him. Whether it is to type up the resume for him or do some research i could do those things for him.

He mentioned first round of interviews that are coming up for him and i suggested we go buy him an interview outfit and he just loved the idea!!

I think he can clearly see how much i like him... and i can only hope and pray that he's feeling me too..

But let me ask you..

The fact that he stayed with me all weekend and i didnt even ask him to...is that a sign that he's gradually adjusting to me? I mean i did ask him to come over on Friday night but i didnt think he was going to stay until Sunday!! hahaha!! not that im complaining at all!! lol

my daughter also told me that when he got home on Sunday he walked in so happy and was talking about what we did this weekend... the spa.. dinner and the movies... i was surprised at that as i thought he would never mention us and the things we do to his family and friend. Can this mean anything? or is it just me wishing it means something?

Aphrodite Bull
by: Leo Love

Sorry Aphrodite Bull.. you've been gone for a while and i'm pulling this stuff from my journal!! HAHA!! :) hope you dont mind being bombarded.. but i know you will give me good and honest advise and i sooooo appreciate it!!

soooooo... this is what i am confused about:

Since he's not a chaser and if i need to be persistent and do the chasing, then i must be going down the right path since that's exactly what i've been doing. But then we are told we're not suppose to chase a man... very confusing...

I'm always available for him but isn't that a bad thing... i should not be available to him all the time..

this is a scenario i was given...

"Female: I really want to be with you.
Taurus Man: I'm not too sure right now. I'm in transition. I can't be in a relationship right now.
What he's really thinking...
"Be patient. Wait for me. Fight for me. I don't know how to answer you at this moment. But I don't want you to give up on me."

That is so US.. it's crazy!! LOL!! he has actually made comments to me about him loving the fact that i dont give up and to be patient!! LOL!! the last time we were together (2 weeks ago after the month long disappearance) that's exactly what i felt like, he didnt want me to give up on him. He said " he didnt know what he wanted and could not understand why he was being that way with me" then i came up with a compromise and he agreed to it... so isn't that an indication of me not giving up on him?

I can see the insecurities at times and it is very difficult for him to express himself to me but your right when he's touching me and looking at me and making me laugh and making me feel like an incredible woman..... i see it all in his eyes!! and it melts my heart away!! just like that!!

Sometimes i think am i crazy for thinking he likes me just because his eyes are so intense and deep and they make me feel that way... however, his actions may say something else... his dissappearing acts, not responding to my calls or text those actions make me think he's not into me or not interested in a long term relationship.

And he is secretive and VERY PRIVATE!! but he does open up to me just a little at a time.. and that's okay because when he does that i give him a little more of me...

I've thought about telling him that i'm in love with him... because i am but i am not sure its the right time to do so...should i hold that back?

thanks again your advice and guidance is appreciated big time! i don't know what i would do with you AB!! :) thank you!

Thanks again Aphrodite Bull! You're the best! I missed u :) I really do hope he does resurface bc I miss him a lot. And we do come on strong :( even if we do have the best of intentions. I'm just afraid that I may have pushed him away completely with my last e-mail to him. I keep hearing how stubborn they can be and it makes me crazy thinking this was the last I'd hear of him. I'm hesitant to reach out to him as that may seem I'm desperate. Am I wrong?

He was never upset.

He already KNEW. LOL. He just wanted to see if you were going to be honest with him and that he could trust you. Bulls. We do this all the time. We have the proof in our hands. But will 'innocently' mention something as if we have absolutely no idea. We're master investigators, and skilled at being evasive. Ha ha! There is a lot of things that the zodiac doesn't divulge about Bulls. We're very cautious, guarded and non-trusting individuals. Yes, even if we're smitten with you.

We do backgrounds and fact check everything you tell us. Seriously. If we find even the slightest lie, we will pull away. I dated this guy one time, very strong physical chemistry. But his stories didn't add up. The lies weren't big, detrimental lies, but still, small little white lies here and there. The lies may have been harmless. But to a guarded Bull, it screams nightmare! See, if you're hiding behind lies, we can't see the REAL you. We don't mind imperfections. We will love you in spite of it. And will certainly let our OWN guards down. We're not as finicky as the other earth signs {ie, Caps, Virgos). We just hate lies and pretenses. That will totally put us off!

You told him the truth. That's all he wanted to hear. He needs to know that he can trust you.

To: Leo Love (Parts III-V)
by: Aphrodite Bull

Don't worry about him being reluctant to spend the nights in the beginning. He will adjust. Bulls, we're obsessed with routine. Sleeping in our own beds, going to sleep at a certain time, getting up in the morning and jumping in the shower. We like to have our toiletries readily available. Toothbrush, lotion, deodorant, and etc. We're boring and predictable like that. LOL! Bulls like for everything to be in it's natural place. We're funny like that. This obsession we have with 'order of things.' Any sudden change, or anything out of place will send us into a panic attack. Literally. LOL!

My advice to you. LeoLove, have a spare toothbrush ready. Have his favorite lotion or deodorant waiting in the bathroom. Mention it casually. Crack a joke or two. (Tauruses loooove a good laugh) Tell him he has a spare toothbrush and lotion because you don't want to smell his breath in the morning. He will laugh, slowly adjust, and begin to feel more at home. He will no longer feel like a stranger in your house.

My best friends will tell you. I am the most predictable person you will ever meet!

This is 100% spot on/accurate!

You were also 100% accurate about Bulls being private and secretive also. We will open up a little at a time.

We're very private people. We're never hiding anything malicious, it has more to do with self-preservation. We let just a few people in. This stems from a fear of being judged. Remember, we want to be seen as perfect in your eyes. Any imperfections we see in ourselves will drive us to isolation. But we also need to know that once we give ourselves to you completely, you will not sabotage our hearts. Trust me, it's happened to us before. We may forgive, but we never forget, or regress! This takes us some time. But we only ask that the individual trust us enough to be patient.

Yes. We will investigate. We're gatekeepers of our inner circle. We're protective of our domain.
Very few individuals will be given the opportunity to meet our family members or members of our circle. Bulls operate on an organizational plane. Finances, 1st, Relationships 2nd, Marriage and Family 3rd. If we don't give you an answer right away, don't panic like most do. LOL! We're trying to sort things out for ourselves. Trying to see if we can trust you, where we see ourselves financially, and figuring out ways to incorporate you into our lives.

It's just never done in the pace that people want it! Eventually, they just give up on us, which contrary to our aloof disappearing acts 'exterior' can tear us to pieces. This is why we frown when we contact people and they're either not available or not answering our calls. Panic sets in, and we assume that they're looking elsewhere. We never assume that they're just put off by our 'aloofness.'

To Retreating Scorp (24)

I would send him an email, apologizing for your actions. But also explaining why you did it.

Do this, and he will contact you.

He will probably be ecstatic that he didn't have to make the 1st move (since we're stubborn by nature, lol :)

We're pratical

Send him the email.

And he will come around.

And, no, you wiill not look desperate.

OMG!! I laughed so hard yesterday after i sent my 6 part story!! and i actually went back to read it ALL!! LOL!! I couldnt believe it myself!! I'm so sorry for the BOOK! I thought AB will never ask me how are things going for me again!! lmao!! and that you have taken the time to respond is so awesome of you!! :)

So true... he is very predictable!! and i love it...

i actually did go and pick up a toothbrush for him a few weeks ago, and i also picked up his favorite moisturising lotion that he uses for his face. Although he brought his stuff with him this past weekend, he did think it was a great idea that i did that. that is too funny.. becuase he is very feminine in that sense and i just love it! he does like to have his things readily available... i'm thinking i will get a bag with all his favorite stuff in it so that he can feel little more comfortable next time!!

Thanks again AB!
