Understanding Taurus Men's Communication and Commitment

Taurus men often prioritize stability and may withdraw when overwhelmed or stressed, especially if they are dealing with family or work issues. Their silence does not necessarily mean a lack of love but can reflect their need for space. Consistent communication and patience are key to understanding their emotional nature and building trust.

My Taurus bf of three years is telling his coworkers to tell me he's unavailable. busy with his business, I know this. He changed his server and cell phone to the server to a new one and now I can't reach him. called him at work and he told coworker that he will call me later. What does this mean? Haven't talked to him since jan.11, 2015.

By the way, This Taurus man, is the love of my life. He is divorced but has to take care of his mentally ill exwife because her family does not want her and he's the only one that will take care of her. He has two children by the ex-wife's marriage to him he takes care of too. he has repeatedly over and over told me that if something is wrong with my relationship with him he will tell me. so, why does he not try to contact me and let me know he's there? He tells me when I'm with him that he does love me and I am his girlfriend. If so, why no contact for months? It hurts me, but I'm not supposed to feel hurt by it to him. please help me to know this man. He has his own business, his own home, and everything. I lost my car a year ago due to it was a lemon. and he knows this, why does he not try to help me so that I can help him.

Im an aquarius woman, 02/14/70.

well, no its just that he is soo very busy with his business, that he forgets about me, or it seems this way. why would he take care of his exwife though? I don't take care of my ex-husband, he has a male roommate in his own apartment.

Unless your man is some super secret operative in an undercover mission, the only reason he wouldn't contact you is because he doesn't prioritize you over...well pretty much anything. He's got time for all that but can't even shoot you a text? I'd move on, there are plenty of men out there who would give you a reason to love them.

Oh damn how many kids involved and now you're pregnant. Two kids plus one with you, two different baby mom's. You and the other. The other woman is his ex.. will stay emotionally and mentally attached to her.. I had met a Taurus male and he told me he was attached to his ex. I said I need the emotions and mental connection and supposedly he stopped all conversations with her..

even if we didn't work out between us. He shouldn't be attached because a nother person can like you and get along with you but you're heart is with someone else. I let him go.. because he lied.. and is controlling.. and have had great connection with good people but weren't financially stable. Another red flag.. so many red flags in your case. Let it go

let him go and do what you have to if you are pregnant.Take ccare of your self and your bun in the oven...only be Independent. Because Taurus people are...an

When did she say she was pregnant?
OP this is going to sound blunt, I don't mean to hurt your feelings but it's been over 5 months since he changed his # on you & failed to give it to you & failed to contact you. That was a dirt bag shitty move on his part but any woman with even a small bit of self respect would have chalked it up to him being too much of a coward to end things properly & moved on by now.

You said you want to understand Taurus so here you go..... You are coming across as being very dependent & clingy which Taurus doesn't like so if you were this way in your relationship that may be why he decided to jump ship. Taurus are very loyal people to those they care about & just because he's divorced from his wife (if he even is) doesn't mean that he still doesn't care about her if she's ill & the mother of his children so he may feel obligated to care for her in some way, if for no other reason than for the sake of his children because Taurus also take the job of parenting very seriously. And lastly it is not his job to buy you a new car so if you were harping on him about him helping you or expecting material things, that would be a good reason why I would end things. I like to help people & give gifts & share my wealth when I have it but NOT when it's asked for or expected.

The behaviour of this 'man' is not related to astrology.

He has you as number 163 on his list of priorities.

That's in between doing his laundry and taking the garbage out.

His words - him saying he loves you and you're his girlfriend - do not match his actions - not calling you in the last four months (that's a third of a year btw, NOBODY on this earth is THAT busy) and changing his number etc.

This Taurus man is NOT the love of your life. You just think he is. He is not offering you anything, jeez, he's not even offering you tid bit scraps of nothingness. He's just binned you as best he can which hasn't been in the best way.

There's a high chance here that he isn't divorced. He might be separated and be living elsewhere temporarily. He was probably just a bit bored and liked you to fill in some gaps. Now your purpose has been served he wants to go back to how his life was. There's also a high chance his wife isn't mentally ill and is perfectly fine but he's using it as an excuse to carry on his sham and to get rid of you. It's a valid excuse he can use and you'll think he's amazing for stepping up to look after the 'ex wife' and his kids. Let's face it, mental illness could continue whereas if he picked another illness she might either 'get better' or 'die' so his excuse would be short lived.

Apologies if the above sounds a bit sick or rude but I've heard so much crap over the years either from my personal life or professionally in my job. Seriously, one dude told his mistress/gf he was hiding out from the Israelis and even grew his hair, beard, and dieted to play this fantasist idea he had... The things people say and do is appalling.

OP, ask yourself, is this really the man you want? You're surely old enough to know far better.

It's not going to get any better I'm afraid.

My goodness!! If he has not communicated with you since January, surely your relationship is over?!

Very true. The longest I've ever gone radio silent was like three months, BUT I did keep in touch via Gifts and notes (Pen) keeping it old school, let her know I was still thinking of her etc. When I get in the "Zone" it takes a lot to pull me back and when I do come back it's usually cause I've burnt out.

Doesn't surprise me that she is an Aqua....They are generally pretty open-minded about other peoples' unconventional ties and connections, and they are so independent themselves, I can see an Aqua giving someone this much space and time. But yeah...whole thing is crazy. Sounds just like something a "good guy" Taurus would do though...sorry...lol.

Are you still there? Don't worry, we don't know each other. I read it in your numbers. I guess you can't give his? It makes it easier.

He wasn't lying to you, but you know why he hasn't called. He really is busy and doesn't have time for a relationship or added stress. At this point, you should not come on strong, it will make you look like a psycho.

In about 3 months, an occasion will pop up, seems like an event of some sort. You'll have your chance then, as long as you don't push it in between. Time for him passes quickly, he's got too much on his plate. Just don't make yourself a burden. You might be able to save it.

Can you relate with that?

I would never expect this naivety from an aquarius woman, ya'll are usually smart rational thinkers. How you could OP possibly not see she's getting played and that the relationship has BEEN over—

I called his office and his coworker told me he was unavailable. He did this same very thing two yrs ago and finally contacted me. I told his coworker that I have no other way of contacting him and he said my Brandon will call me later. When is later to a Taurus?

Couple weeks minimum, although I've been known to take a few months, well 10 months. LOL

Sonjaconey44,

The taurus ex i knew never had the balls to say to me its over. He just went silent for 1 week and i confronted him because he was being immature. They have no integrity when they do this and say to your face, its over and i don't want to be with you.

As hard as it may be for you, move on. When you smell something fishy like this, you have that gut instinct for a reason and my gut instinct never failed me
