If a Taurean has totally the wrong perception of you due to a silly misunderstanding, are they capable of changing their mind when they see the "Real You" or is that it, over and done, dont want anything more to do with you —

It depends on the circumstances. We'll definitely give people the "benefit of the doubt" in most situations; however, it depends on how bad the first impression was. For instance, if I met someone and they were completely drunk at a party and did some crazy stuff, etc, I wouldn't be rude and not give them the benefit of the doubt in the future. I'm not perfect, so I definitely don't expect others to be. BUT, if it's a work situation, and I meet someone, and they come across as rude, arrogant, making snide comments and trying to make others look bad, by trying to make themselves look good, then no, it would be hard for me to have respect for that person, so it would be a long road for them to try to hoe to get me to even want to talk to them, much less even giving them a second chance.
One thing I can say about Taurus folk whether it's men or women - we typically do not pretend. We can be cordial in business situations with people we don't like, but you best believe you'll be able to tell people we don't care for, because we won't say anything necessarily bad about them, but we will avoid them like the plague! If I don't like someone, I make damn sure I am rarely in their realm. I am not one of those people who feels I have to please and be nice to everyone. That's just not my cup o' tea, but in that respect, that may be just me 🙂
Hope this rambling response helped!

No. You cant change OUR mind, only we can. What you can do is take the initiative to present your true self without being too pushy about it. And it should be your true self, not what you think the Taurus wants you to be. Im very level headed that people have good days and bad days and that sometimes people have to be comfortable before they show their true selves or even that they present their "best" selves although they rarely continue to act so with time. Just take a deep breath and be you, if the Taurus reevaluates and finds you to be pleasant they will most likely make it known.
