What's the best way to talk to a Taurus woman? Do they like lots of compliments?

I love to compliment a woman, tell her she's gorgeous, irresistible, good enough to eat, etc.

The reason I ask is because I'm seeing my Taurus friend tomorrow... the one I was in a relationship for four months. Things got very difficult between us but we've been e-mailing a lot and established the cause of the problems that caused things to go wrong. When we first met I was very confident and took control, and she liked this and responded very well, but when I realized that I was falling for her I withdrew and changed my behavior for fear of upsetting her and losing her. She identified this change of behavior as the point where she didn't know where she was with me anymore and she then withdrew because my behavior had become vague and unreliable. If I'd just carried on being myself we'd have been fine. Anyway, I'm going to meet her tomorrow and I'm just going to go back to being myself, being confident and cocky like I was at the beginning. I always loved to tell her she was gorgeous, irresistible, etc. and was wondering if this is something that Taurus women actually love. She is very quiet and doesn't let on much, but she never complained about me being quite verbal.

She has said she likes a man who takes the lead and takes control, so I will, which means lavishing her with praise, but at the same time I'd be interested to know if this is what Taurus women actually like.

Also, if your compliments aren't genuine, then they will fall on deaf ears because a lot of us have a B.S. 'meter that can smell B.S. a mile away. I don't like people giving me insincere compliments, and while I am a woman and like to be complimented on physical appearance, etc, we also love to be complimented on our mind and the accomplishments that we've made.

Anything I say will be 100% genuine. I only say what I am inspired to say, so comments that aren't genuine will never be born in my mind in order to come out of my mouth. She has some very magical qualities which are really nothing to do with looks (though she is gorgeous), but more to do with the aura of irresistible sensuality that I can feel when I'm close to her. The messages that we have exchanged over the last four days have been very revealing and have cleared-up a lot of the problems that I discussed in my "Taurus Girlfriend" thread. I am ready for her now 🙂

*big sigh of relief* for the change of events VirgoM! I don't think I need to add anything that hasn't been said by my fellow taurus ladies.. except for my own "best of luck in your new relationship" wishes! 😄

VirgoM20, if you were any other sign other than Virgo I'd be concerned about all this praise
you plan on throwing that bulls way...

too much flattery makes us raise an eyebrow.. hmmm

But since you're a Virgo, you can't go wrong. There's something so innately genuine about
everything the Virgin does and says that we find so very attractive.

It will all be genuine. I love to express to a woman how I feel about her... but only if those feelings are genuine. This "Bullette" is one incredibly sexy woman, so I can't help but have feelings of intense desire and admiration for her, and I do want to show it.

wouldn't a female bull be a cow? haha, i know brits like to toss this word around when women are being bitches so i thought it'd be funny. ok, maybe it was only funny to me but i digress...

i think u should talk to her like a human being. that's how i liked to be talked to anyway.

(1) She is very affectionate.

She isn't keen on showing her affections in public but in private she is amazingly passionate. It's up to me to make the first move but once I do I get so much back from her I can't believe it! When I spend an evening at hers and then it's time to go home I kiss her goodnight and she then refuses to let me go for another half an hour purely because she can't seem to stop kissing me! I'm not complaining!!

(2) She wants to cook for you.

She does, and she love to eat out with me too.

(3) She laughs at your jokes.

I don't tell jokes because I'm useless at it, but she laughs at just about everything I say to her. Sometimes we'll just gaze into each other's eyes for a few seconds and then both burst out laughing. One time I stayed at hers we woke up in the morning, looked at each other and then both started laughing uncontrollably for no reason.

(4) She makes certain 'gestures' of generosity.

Yes, she comes across as generous and quite a caring and giving person.

(5) She seems very nurturing.

Again, yes. She has a way of doing little things that make me feel really "looked after".

It will be a LONG time before she tells you how she feels about you.

Any idea when this might be? When will I hear her say the "L" word? I realized over this weekend that I am in love with her, but I don't want to scare her off by saying it or end up feeling rejected if I say it to her and she doesn't say it back, but I want to be honest about how I feel.

But most of all, be BOLD and HONEST! Don't be pretentious. Show us your true self. Even if it's awkward, we would respect the genuine honesty. If we suspect that you're putting up a 'false front,' then we will be more guarded, indifferent in your presence, or simply distance ourselves from you.

Very true. We went through a difficult phase during which I lost touch with myself a bit because I was tiptoeing around for fear of offending her, and we got out of it by me following her advice to just be honest, be myself and stop thinking so much. Since I stopped worrying and became more bold and brave she has responded amazingly.

one of the most accurate descriptions I've heard.😉

Based on my experience of being with this woman, and some "off the record" advice that she kindly gave me when she realized just how clueless I was, I have to agree. This really does describe her perfectly and since taking the approach detailed above I have enjoyed unprecedented success with her and a complete transformation (for the better) of our relationship. We really seem to have gelled with each other now. 🙂
