I know this site is known for smirky but I’m looking for solid responses.

Been seeing a Taurus man for 5 months. He has kids (one at home all the time, other 2 gone). We live less than 90 min away and usually just spend a day together on the weekend. Its the getting to know phase. The past 2 weekends he had to deal with kids back to school. Then had to cancel the third weekend due to health issue. But he’s hard to get to know, always keeping me at a distance. Ive asked him about it twice. He just won’t give any solid answers. Other than to say, he believes in action not words. I feel compartmentalizations. A part of his life but not really. I’ve been very vocal that we need to be more open with each other. He just won’t. Saying its hard for him

Is the Taurus pattern: keep people at a distance. Call and text but at very specific times. talk about their friends and family but never get an invite. Not good at speaking about emotions or feelings. Being very superficial and not showing anything deep.

I’m a Virgo that has mostly dated Leo’s. This is my first Taurus and everyone on other sites

this could go either one of two ways really.

in my experience, taurus at the start can be very hard to get to know and yes, being held at arms length is exactly the phrase i used at the time too.

how you described him is incredibly similar to how it was with my partner too.

after a significant period of time, i finally got to the bottom of it. he didn't want to let anyone in. he didn't want to be vulnerable. he didn't want to get hurt. he didn't want to open himself up so he held himself in reserve.

so it could be that.

or he could be keeping you in the dark for some nefarious reason.
