How does friendship between an Aries and Taurus look like?
There's this volunteer girl in my workplace..and she seem to irritate me. She's nice but
I just find her weird..and crazy? I agreed to share room with her (so she doesn't have to pay for her room) but I don't know why I just can't connect with her.
I'm trying my best to be nice but geez..she talks out of this world.

I have a Taurus friend who I get along with.. But I'm not sure if this is because she is an Aries/Taurus cusp..

Most of my female friends are Taurus. It just depends. Sometimes you have to take a step back and look at what is irritating you with them(usually your own qualities or your opposite)

For dead center Taurus they are usually stubborn and rigid initially, or at least until drunk. They are pretty funny and loyal friends if you find one with good qualities.

Some can not hold water. They tell everything to everyone so as long as you don't share your vital soul you are fine. They can be judgmental but are pretty straight forward once comfortable.

They are pranksters. They are as bad as Sags can be when picking on people especially if you do not seem to stand up to them (which is usually not an Arian issue) They have a different aspect of seeing the spiritual and natural world which some people find crazy.

How it looks: like two peas in a pod or a nuclear explosion until common ground is found. We have a tendency to ignore Taurus 'antics' until we blow up or until they do. It is the funniest fight ever when this happens because either way it fixes everything and the friendship is usually just closer.

This Taurus is like this: we go on an island and she picks up tons of stones, drift wood, plants that hang on trees and tells me she got something that's so funny! WTH is funny about a drift wood??!
I'm not sure of she is nervous as she is new but I'm sure that she is not being herself and I hate people who isn't being themselves. When something is not okay, then she can open up and tell me so I can help her..not that I can feel that she's uncomfortable with the people around her (btw, the staff don't like her as she throws bad jokes. Like one guy's thumb got a deep cut because of steel cutter so he had to have 5 stitches on it, and I asked him if he is feeling any better because he feels stupid about the accidental cut on his own body, and the Taurus says something like: I want to break your thumb! And laughs like a looney toon character. WTF is that—) Then she drinks HALF A GLASS of red wine and gets noisy and tells everyone that she's drunk!!! Lol.

I am really trying hard to be nice..like today, just so she feels comfortable, I asked her to go walk with my by the beach over sunset and took a pic of her and I can see she was happy..
It's just most of the time, I'm really trying to control myself not to roll an eye on her (I'm an Aries and I'm known for my extreme impatience!).. I think , she is so overwhelmed by the people she's working with..

My "best" friend is a Taurus. We've known eachother for about 7 years and it's kind of on and off. We won't speak and hang out for months at a time and I think that's mostly my doing. As an Aries I need space and that usually comes in large quanities. When we do start talking and hanging out again it's constant. I do notice that she has a tendency to put me on a back burner when she meets someone new and our relationship has never been very close (which could explain why we've been friends for so long). She is incredibly strange and has the tendency to annoy me. She NEVER tells me anything, which causes me to feel like I'm not really a friend to her. Maybe these are just Taurus aspects and they don't mesh with Arians as well.

my best friend is a taurus also and we've been friends for 9 years and we're on and off too. we both have a tendency to want our own space so we go long periods of not talking but when we do talk it's just as if nothing changed. she is calm,cool,collected and im calm,cool and collected when i want to be. but one amazing fact about taurus is that they're very loyal friends they always have your back.she is not as emotional as i am which can kind of be confusing because you would think she doesn't care about anything but all earth signs believe in keeping composure under all situations they don't like getting emotional. it has taken me the longest time to figure that out funny thing is my closest friends are all earth signs. my bf is a virgo, my other best friend is a virgo the friend i was talking about taurus and my cousin and dad capricorn. so im surrounded by earth signs and their practicality. anyways a friendship with taurus can be great or hell its 50/50 you two will have different perspectives on handling situations which can get annoying and challenging but honestly their loyalty is like a rock wonderful friends when it does work. you would have to decide for yourself 🙂 hope i helped hun.

I enjoy the Taurus demeanor to an extend but she's so calm it's almost to the point of being aloof and when we talk again it is as though nothing changed, but she responds to me in what I would describe as a fearful manner. Like she doesn't want to give her opinions or say anything against me because it would might irritate me. I'm not saying I can't handle differing opinions but I guess maybe she's like that with everyone. That's a bit offputting for me but I suppose it could just me my perception. It is nice to know that being on and off isn't unhealthy though, thank you. 🙂

lol no problem 🙂 and trust me i know exactly what you mean it's irritating i think it's because as aries we are outspoken we say what is on our minds disregarding anyone's feelings. i think the aloofness is taurus way of not saying too much. to other signs aries bluntness may be looked at as a bad thing because we are the children of the zodiac are bluntness is just simple honesty.where aries leaves off is where taurus begins and they're a little bit wiser and try not to step on others toes. aries can't help it we just give it to you straight i always prefer saying too much than to not say anything at all. its funny because me and my taurus friend always disscuss this topic and she says the same thing everytime she just doesn't want to say too much and regret it. i understand now but it's still really irritating.

I have three taurus friends- all female- and we are all on again off again. Two I have known since Kindergarten. I think we get along well because we like bring silly and having fun BUT our biggest disconnect is planning. Those taurus ladies love to have exact schedules that they MUST stick to! That part drives me crazy. Want to make plans? How about 3 weekends from now at 7:30pm? Grrrreat I will Sharpie you in.

Taurus is loyal, straight forward and much more controlled. I like that part about them!

After thinking about this for a while, I have to say any interactions I have with Taurus tend to be rather choppy. I do like them, but I seem to annoy them to no end. I move to fast for their comfort. I do find that they like to lean on me when things are moving fast and they could use some help. Once things are back on a even keel however, they want me to stay the heck away from them.

I am the quiet, reserved one out of me and my Aries friend. He's very charismatic and absolutely hilarious. He charms my friends and everyone is under his spell to an extent. I tend to be a healer of sad and lost souls and he finds this a bit tiresome, I think because he says I can do better. He suffers no fools and I was so worried when we first got to know each other because I thought he would probably hate me because of how everyone else seemed to annoy him. But he tells people I'm awesome and need to stop settling for people and find better company.
I do find him a bit domineering at times as well. He can be a bit unkind to people and I prefer for those I speak to to walk away feeling better for my company. I get nervous with him because he seems so much more sure footed in life than me. But I find him to he uplifting and we are both very loyal to each other. He protects me and I would do anything to help him.
I think it is our common ground (we're both artsy people with the same rare circumstances in terms of upbringing) that keeps us hanging out. He has a lot more patience for me and I am at my best and quickest with him because being with him is sink of swim. If you don't hurl his friendly abuse straight back at him, you run the risk of becoming his butt-monkey.
