My Taurus boyfriend says that he loves me but why do i feel like he's only saying it. Instead of being happy, whenever he says he loves me now, all i feel is pain coz i doubt his words. He takes me for granted. I've told him how much I love him, i showed it to him and made him feel secure in our relationship. I've been honest with him all the way. I let my guard down for him but why do i feel like regretting my choices now. In the beginning, he was so sweet but now that we're together, why do i feel like i always need to beg for his attention and time. I give him space as much as possible but most of the time, I feel like he's not there for me and i'm alone. He doesn't even ask how am i doing for weeks. I tried to understand him most of the time but it's just so painful when i feel like i'm the only one making an effort. I need your insight guys. What should I do to make my taurus man miss me?

awww everyone already used the best lines, guess I'd have to be serious 😢

you know, that's exactly what being compatible should do, especially cap and tau, that's a trine, the more harmonious one, and that bring laziness, just what you're disliking in the relationship, challenges on the other hand, that's the kind of things that makes you value what you get, that's the beauty of the incompatible signs.

communication would be key, take that as your challenge, discuss your feelings and those things that could be difficult in the relationship, that way you both get to grow and appreciate what you can achieve together, more 🙂

I mean if you're feeling taken for granted, you probably are. Sounds like he's content, a bit too much. Focus your energy on other things like hanging out with friends, your hobbies, your passion. Tauruses can get big headed with their ego. When he realizes he's not getting his routinely ego fill up he'll reach out. That's when you throw him a sweet sassy response. "Well hey there stranger! I'd love to see you, but I made plans to hang out with the girls this weekend 😉!" My favorite thing to do is call my bull a stranger when I haven't heard from him in a minute. It reminds him to check up on me because he gets sensitive when it's not the usual pet name 😂.

Cap women are pretty much everything I'm looking for on paper...I think the connection can almost be too smooth though...there has to be some tension for growth IMO....if left unchecked, I do tend towards the negative qualities you mention (less effort, self-centerenedness, taking you for granted, etc.) - very easy to just get caught up in my own world...You have to express your discontent though...even if you flip a little. Don't just stuff it like a typical Cap, or it will manifest later in some passive aggressive behavior that you may not even recognize your self, leaving him totally confused....with a Cap dominant woman right now and this is one of our main issues...

Hell yeah take notes, thats how you handle Taurusses, be assertive and charming instead of bratty and naggy.

Yeah my advice is to make YOURSELF busy too. Do other things without him, if he asks to chill, tell him you've made plans, etc. It'll make him work harder to spend time with you. Also, talk to him about these things as well.
