How to Tell if a Taurus Man Is Shy or Not Interested
A shy Taurus man may show limited communication and takes time to open up, while a disinterested one avoids effort and lacks engagement. Observe his body language, responsiveness, and consistency in interaction. Genuine interest is usually reflected in his willingness to connect over time, even if he's naturally reserved.
Thing is I have no idea if someone is interested or flirt8ng either. So you have to communicate and see where things are going.
If your friends brother said he's shy, then that's probably the truth. To tell if he's interested in you, you need to tell us more about his behavior. What are some things you notice? I.e does he stare at you then look away once you look at him. Does he avoid small talk when you initate it?

Taurus men initiate if they REALLY TRULY want something, even the ones who are shy or have water moons etc have no trouble at all being "forward"!!!So all this crap about men being "too shy" to initiate is just that... "crap"!!
If the Taurus is not doing anything to initiate or pursue then he is NOT INTERESTED!!!
This is not your first thread on this same Taurus either!! Walk away!!
If you have to chase a man, at least chase someone who is interested!!
When i saw a notification, I so knew that it's gonna be you
Anyway i did post about him months back...but that was when just started talking...and he was a bit aloof!
But now we are like friends, we talk every other day...he initiates...asks stuff...But he doesn't really flirt 😢
I don't flirt either...What if i try to flirt and he goes "hey why are you flirting?"

We met first time alone...he talked a lot
We met again...but this tym my bro was there, my bestie was there and all
This time he kept on staring at me...not creepy way...i was standing at one corner of the room, and he was sitting in the other corner, his eyes were fixated on me! He didn't look away for once...
My bestie told me later that he was staring at me the whole time(i noticed too)
Small talk...he didn't come up to me to talk...i went and sat beside him and he started talking and sharing things about his life! We talked for like an hour
We stay in different cities...so meeting is not possible...so everything happens via TEXT...arghhhh

How cute are you?
That question and then the face on the avatar seen together is ....lol made my day.
Newlove it is always scary to put yourself out there you could try to give him subtle invitations you know playful little jokes, subtle Bodylanguage etc. And then see how he reacts. The part who has to make the first move
always risks rejection. Unfortunately you need to muster up your courage and take a risk anyway. And I am not even saying that you should hit on him directly.

Above average hot!!!Heard something like this for the first time
Yeah, this made me cold as soon as I read it.
I have heard Hot, super hot, Friggin Hot, average looking, above average lookin
Above average hot! I actually wanna know what it means...like she is 50% hot & 50% above average!
Lol
8-8.5/10 coz passing at my school used to be 7.5 and 9 is to high to have the word average attached to it
Wait..what? 8.5/10 is above average hot?
Did you mean it or i misinterpreted? o_O
You got it lol

I know a guy (Taurus)...I'm interested in him...But i don't know whether he's interested!My cousin bro knows him...He's told me that this guy is not really a go getter in case of girls...That he never had a gf, is busy with his career, adventures...will not really show feelings(if he has any)...Very shy, talks less, shows less emotions, has limited friends...
I can make efforts for him but I'm more concerned about -What if he's not shy? What if he is Not Interested?
So i wanna know how do you people differentiate between a guy who is SHY or a guy who is NOT INTERESTED—
Your basing all of your assumptions of him off of a second-hand retelling. Why don't you strike up a conversation with him to gauge his presumed interest in you?
Or are you in middle school and start and end relationships through a third party?

@OP. ASackOfMeatDecayingAndOnBorrowedTime has been reported and so has your thread.
Hey Redoctober, i quoted sackof meat to say that you will be bothered after seeing that pic...i didn't encourage him
And i have hidden my quote too, cant do anything about his!
But since you've reported me and my thread, what can i say!

No, i've not based my assumptions on third party or stuff
I talk with him regularly, and he is everything what my bro explained!
Since we live apart, we can't meet regularly...Texting is the worst form of communication, coz you can't see their bodylanguage!
Thats why i'm confused about his feelings

Why not call him! Hmmmm good question...Maybe I lack confidence! Tbh i fear rejection...i've faced it once and its not really a good feeling
If you fear rejection, try flirting.
It has always worked for me.
I am talkative (Gemini Moon) opinionated (Taurus Sun) and confident in every aspect of my personality other than potential relationships. I am innately shy, awkward, and sometimes unsure of myself or how I am perceived in situations. This is magnified with someone I am really interested in.
If he flirts then it puts me at ease. I let my guards down and begin reciprocate. I will also make subtle gestures to draw him in.
Figure out how you're going to draw him in without asking him out.
Once he sees this green light, if he's interested, he will move forward with pursuing you.

What do you mean 'rejection'? It's only a phone call and conversation. It's not like your offering him your hand in marriage...

This. Works for me too.
