Evaluating me?

Taurus guy was HOT at first, coiled off, but was steady until POOF! He went off the radar for 5 days.

There was no disagreement, just silence. Then, last night out of the clear he texts me, "Hey beautiful."

I reply when I can and then silence again.

Help me to understand what he's doing.

That sounded mean. It wasn't meant to be. Just saying you're not a priority to him. You're an option.

Unlikely that he's doing little with the motive of keeping her interested. This kind of intentional manipulation is not really in the Taurus playbook and is a bit mean-spirited. We just move more slowly, our focus gets caught up on other things (one track), we require less verbal/written communication, etc.

The better question is what is she doing. Is she sitting around just waiting? She should just live her life. If she feels like contacting him, do it. Accept that he may not have her same standards for communication. 5 days is nothing IMO, unless you are married or dating for a long-time and these kinds of things have been established. Dated my Sag for several years and she wanted to talk every night before bed, etc. To me, going 3 days without talking, even after all that time dating and even after we were seriously committed, was no big issue at all. Has nothing to do with lack of interest.

Didn't sound mean. I prefer brutal honesty to sugar coated BS 🙂

You may have hit the mail on the head. No sooner than I posted, he texted again.

"... there's this beautiful woman from the East side who has captured my attention."

TaurusLovesScorpio, he and I both have crazy schedules. I do my own thing. I'm always accused of being aloof, but I think his interest is genuine.

I don't have to speak daily, just need to know if that's typical taurus behavior and I think you answered that question.

Thank you

Just going off her other threads. Women have a tendency to get stuck on people. It sounds like he's out n about, still seeing what's out there. But it's new and they're in the trying each other on for size phase so that's not a bad thing, per se. Yet anyway. All I'm saying is, while he may have genuine interest, she shouldn't get too fixated.

Your advice is well perceived. I still go out on other dates, just prefer the bull. He's long-term, where as the others are simply a few hours out in the town.

He's going out on other dates like you are. If he isnt scheduling dates and just saying hey after such a bold statement before. Just put two and two together.

Yep, I thought of what you said. Lol

I'm interested, in no rush. He'll be back.
