Has my Taurus bestfriend caught feelings? How do I give him time and space that he asked for?

I am a capricorn

We became friends back in March but didn’t become close friends until late march, my friend that he was talking to at the time had me message him for her and he and I hit it off.

He was a virgin and I took his virginity as well as he took mine.

Before all of that happened we agreed to be a fwb situation and then he later messaged me and told me he was waiting for marriage and I told him I was still in love with my ex as well and he got snappy, a few minutes later he told my friend that there was someone else, and he didn’t know he felt that way until a few days ago (when we started getting close.) We became friends and then later he found out I was over my ex and said he missed the sexy snaps and dirty talk and we started again and then eventually he came over and we had sex and it wasn’t planned but I told him I was okay with whatever happened.

There was no emotion or anything involved and the following week we hooked up again and everything was so different, he texted his mom from my phone, and was going through my phone anytime it would buzz. It got to the point he even had me come stand in the shower with him while he washed up, and I touched his back and he looked back at me and smiled at me and pulled my face to his and kissed me and pulled away smiling.

When we were cuddling watching Tv, he couldn’t stop touching me, either he would be rubbing his leg against mine, holding my hand and etc.

I mentioned something my friend said that he told her hes seen the new girl since they started talking and he just sighed and pulled me closer into a cuddle and grabbed and held my hand.

He is leaving out of the country in August and will be gone for 6 months and he has said he doesn’t know how he feels about dating or relationships right now and told me out of nowhere right now he is only looking to fuck around with me and I said I know (this was before the second time we hooked up). Even though he replied to something in my snapchat story about hitting me up when you want something real, he slid up and said “hey”

The day he left my house after the second time he was not the same person, and I think it is because we were kissing and I pulled away and told him something about when he gets back and he pulled away and looked down at the ground and it was 30 minutes before he left, so I am not sure if he has caught feelings and is realizing leaving is going to be a bitch or what.

That was 2 weeks ago, and now 3 days ago I told him I don’t want to be a bother to him because I know that he is going through “personal issues” according to him, and he told me that I normally don’t bother him but he is really struggling with something at the moment and that he just needs time, and we haven’t spoke since, I wished him a happy birthday and he said thank you and I said youre welcome and he left me on read and I haven’t said anything since.

How do I give him space and time, and will he come back and message me again or is this a lost cause?

I'm confused..do you like him?

Sounds like he has feelings, but it could also just be lust since you took each theta virginity.

Are you guys young?

He does sound like an immature Taurus (going through your phone etc...)

Ultimately what are you looking for? Also Taurus always come back around if they care...keep in touch, don't be overbearing, when he sorts things out he will be back. But you also have to decide what you want from him.

agreed, and don't get pregnant - you are both young so take your time and stay friends no matter what - you never know what will happen 5 - 10 years from now

He just turned 19, & I’m 18. I’m on birth control and we got condoms but don’t use them because he pulls out.

Yea I do have some feelings for him. I didn’t have any feelings until we were in the shower & he looked at me and just started smiling.

He also gets this look in his eyes and it intensifies when we have sex. The first time no eye contact was made but the second time eye contact was held most of the time.

Do I just not contact him again until he contacts me or how should I do this?

you have to figure out what you want from him.

there's a lot of threads on here about taurus and caps if you get to digging.

a lot of mistakes are made, so you might need to pull back and get some kind of clarity on what you want.

----

i was just coming on the ask about cap and taurus bestfriends.

i know the girl is a cap, but i just found out a few minutes ago her bestfriend, who have many pics of them together on instagram, is a taurus.

he posted a pic yesterday of the two of them together, and they looked so good i had to comment.

i didn't even know his sign at the time.

she has a boyfriend though smh.

im wondering if this taurus is waiting in the cut because when they are together they look like a couple.

I do know we fit like puzzle pieces and are pretty great friends, we like almost everything that’s the same.

I don’t know abt ur Taurus but I know mine found out I was hooked on my ex still & he went back to my friend and she turned him down, then he attempted w another friend of mine and he recently blocked her and we were fine then he told me he needed time & I know I want a relationship with him, and something that would hopefully lead to marriage but I don’t want to ruin our friendship because we both agree that we value our friendship over everything, and I don’t think anything is going to happen before he leaves for out of the country, I think it’d be when he gets back

try not to make the mistake of putting too much pressure on this.

he is just 19 and started having sex. i bet he looks at you with bedroom eyes, he's popped his cherry and now you've unleashed a new part of him! but he is going away and no doubt is going to try and stick it in everything with a pulse.

young bulls are players and six months is a long time in a teenager's life. so much can happen. don't get caught up thinking about marriage. it's natural to think that way because this guy is your first sexual experience but it can lead you down a path of a great deal of heartache when things don't turn out like you imagined.

and please start using the condoms. you have more to worry about than just falling pregnant.

Is there any chance we can stay friends? And how do I go about the situation of him needing time? Do I just not text him until I hear from him or do I message him once every week or so or what? I have an event coming up I’d really like to invite him to come with me as just friends so we can hang out and talk, he probably won’t cone or meet me there but it’s the thought that counts.

Is there any chance that I might get a chance with him?

i'm sure there is a big chance you can remain friends. the way you be friends with someone is to be friendly.

do you worry how often you are texting your friends? do you schedule it to once a week or wait for them to text you first? you don't. you text when you want. you don't keep score as to the number of times they have text you. so just be yourself and don't overthink things. you already know you get on and have lots of things in common. the hard part is over.

if you want to invite him, invite him. but are you sure you can handle just being friends? if he starts talking to another woman at the event and takes her number, would you be ok with that?

It seems like cap women and Taurus men just can’t seem to sustain a long term relationship. It’s almost always a post about the sexual chemistry, but there’s always romantic confusion from both sides. I’m still experiencing this with my ex. I’m starting to think Taurus men are better made for Virgo women. They seem to be more sure of their feelings for them and they wine and dine them. I think their femininity is a sure attraction. Caps have a bit of masculinity and a whole lot of boundaries and pride to keep from getting hurt and I think it puts Taurus men off. Sorry I don’t have any great advice, but if I could give me advice about Taurus men it would be to remain strictly platonic friends. If u have to spend so much time trying to figure out his feelings, it will become annoying and draining eventually. Either ask him directly if he wants anything more so u know for sure or just be friends.
He was talking to a Virgo woman and it didn’t work between them at all. I asked him before we had sex if he wanted anything more and he said right now he only wants sex, and since then and since my suspicions of him catching feelings caught on he has withdrawn from sex, and told me that we’re fine he just needs time. We agree I have a lot to figure out, & I don’t have a problem being upfront with him but I don’t wanna ruin our friendship before he leaves for 6 months for school, we’ve made all these plans for when he gets back and my thing is trying to wait until he comes back. I’m just unsure if it seems he’s caught feelings and how do I still talk to him when he told me he needs time and space and has left me on read?

That masculinity makes it seem like we are dominant, and they kind of seem to follow our lead because of it, but we are not leaders. At the same time, if they do take charge, I can't say we go with that easily either. Idk.

It definitely is best to remain friends.

Things is, OP, you say the two of you became friends in March. Is that March of this year?

The struggle is so real. It’s like I want to pretend to control the circumstances until I’m sure he can lead. I’ll follow him to the end of the earth once I’m sure but that uncertainty is killer. Crazy thing is no other sign has the power to get me in line like a Taurus. click to expand

Taurus and Capricorn are actually very very compatible from what I’ve read, and see I’m not really a dominant Capricorn when in a relationship, I only take charge when it comes to career and school and things of that nature but I’m very laid back and that’s one reason me and my Taurus get along because he’s a dominant and I’m not, the uncertainty and not knowing really is a killer and draining. I would be upfront w my Taurus but we agreed I have things to figure out and I don’t want to ruin our friendship even tho I know I won’t, he knows I have feelings and has said he doesn’t wanna date right now. I think it’s because he’s leaving, and I want to wait until he gets back to make a move because I think it will be so different if I wait until he comes back
