Leos can sometimes get easily swept off our feet, and it's possible that this kicked in her Virgo Moon to pull back and make sure her head wasn't in the clouds. Virgo Moon can be very practical and conservative compared to her Leo Sun, and needs to feel secure with possible friends or partners. Also her Cancer Venus gives extra depth to her emotions and any possibility of feeling 'unsafe' will have her in her shell.
Maybe you scared her off, but it's likely she also scared HERSELF off. With those Cancer Venus emotions adding to her Leo passion... there could've been a LOT more feelings going on that her Virgo Moon was holding in check. But given where she's at right NOW, the best thing you can do is... exactly what you've been doing, really.
Be consistent and be yourself.
You've apologized, she accepted, you don't need to say more on it unless she brings it up. It -seems- like she just needs time to watch you and see that yes, you ARE genuine, yes it WAS just a misunderstanding and no she wasn't wrong about you. Keep in contact, even if you're just poking her here and there. If you go NC for SIX weeks it might give the impression that it -wasn't- a misunderstanding after all(you were only there for sex), or that you weren't really that interested (in friendship or anything else).

Jesus she sounds like hard work, are you sure you're up to that Mr bull 🙂. I'm with a taurus man and he really has to do not a lot. and as has been pointed out we don't physically collect admirers, they exist but they are beyond our control.
No contact for a few weeks may work in the short term, if you want long term start the hard work now, she will remember, even if it's years down the road, the time you nc'd her.


e hard way that being hard to get is a Bull's catnip 😆 But she's not ready to be Bull-rushed anytime soon, that much is clear after all you've shared.
I don't think you misread it, unfortunately I was (and still am) in the exact same boat of 'Too good to be true'. Maybe that's my Virgo Venus & Cancer Mars talking but it's a shock to the system to find someone who seems to fit you like a glove; it's hard to wrap your brain around.

Am I a fool for the thought that I like her TOO MUCH to be just friends? The thought of her with another whilst I'm in the friend zone would be too much for me.
You're not a fool. The heart wants what it wants and I know that if things don't work out with my Bull I could never be 'just friends'. The bond and the chemistry are too strong and too deep and I going through that emotional cheese grater and always having a fool's hope :/

So... do I get back in touch? I feel I'll be doing so in the hope that friendship turns into something more. I feel that I need to tell her how I feel and let her deal with it.click to expand
Okay, time for some bluntness; after seeing your responses, everyone else's and the texts you posted... I think you're right and you should let this one go :/
If your instincts are telling you to speak your truth and leave her be, then do just that. She's either not ready or as others suggested, not worthy of your patience and understanding. If she's going cold over a misunderstanding that you clearly tried to correct, it doesn't look good for the future. You deserve better than someone who'll play games with you, even if you understand where it's coming from.
As the girl who's pulled a runner on my Bull more than once (embarrassingly), I had to accept the fact that while I might -want- the same thing as him, I was nowhere near ready for it. And it was unfair to stay, so I left.
In my case the Bull came back after 9 months. Maybe that'll be the case for you, maybe it won't. It's a risk you take when you let go and it's what makes letting go so hard but you have to take care of yourself first, just like she is.

No, you are right I won't send the poem.
The card I'm sending is basically saying "I'm not going anywhere" and the sentiment is I'm here whenever you need me. I won't ignore her and I'll stay in her life but I do have to tell her she doesn't need another friend.
I have the rest of my life to wait for her, if she chose another well thats when I'll have to give up.

We spent most of Christmas Day talking until (again) 5am the next day. We went to sleep together in each others arms and spent the next day together too...I was falling hard for this lady and I believe the feeling was mutual.
The inimacy got deeper and deeper until I spoke inappropriately and she took offence. I bought her flowers and sincerely apologised (words mean much to me) which she loved, and I thought I was believed if not forgiven.
However she very quickly distanced herself from me. I thought that given a little space and time she'd eventually forgive me, but after about a week of mixed signals she said she didn't want to see me anymore.
I think given the tone of the message that there was a lot of regret that outside influences (family stuff) didn't give her time to forgive and she said she 'wants to keep in touch and stay friends'.
I'm aware that some(?) Leo's like to collect 'admirers' and I have no desire to be one of her pride. I've also read elsewhere that Leo's don't want a wimpy partner. This in some ways is new territory for me after being in a very long term marriage and my normal approach would be to wail and whine (and probably beg if I'm honest), however I know this won't be a good approach for her or me, so I'm going NC for a while to figure out how to break down the walls the's raised.
I plan on getting back in touch in about six weeks from now but I also plan to make it clear WHY I'm back in touch. If things work out then great, and if she's not interested, then I can walk away knowing I gave it a shot.
I wouldn't be posting on here if I didn't think that this was the start of something really special, and having read other Leo/Taurus threads it's made me think that I wasn't just imagining things. I'm normally very good at reading people but that gift is lacking when it comes to women I'm interested in.
Soooo, can anyone please help me (I so want to ask you to help me tame my lioness lol) understand what makes her tick, and how it would be possible
