I hope they feel comfortable after 23 years of friendship lol ? They open up rarely & it's only a little , very secretive

Balance on that front is a blessing life 🙂 As for the habit of not doing this..it's something that will have been learnt early in life.

Yes definitely feel you lol it's frustrating because I want to express myself, but I just can't. It feels too uncomfortable for me, I hate it

It can be overcome if you attract people in life now who are more emotionally tuned it and caring.

Plz don't feel uncomfortable Taurus lady lol

You just have to guess everything and praying for taurus don't change his/her mind about you, just because you are give some ''time and space''.

I wish I was a little bit taller 😢

sometimes it isn't just about saying how we feel - for me sometimes it's about saying what I feel I need to say and wondering whether or not the other will understand where I'm coming from and be open and accepting

I am not one to tell people what to do or how they should be - I accept them for who/what they are but that doesn't mean I agree with them or want to be like them

the Aries in me is pretty direct so I've had to curb that a lot and not always say what comes to my mouth first even if it is true it is direct and a lot of people get offended by that - so I end up just looking at them and smiling and not saying anything ... sometimes I think, they will figure it out someday, but then again, I have no control over that either

I can't speak for other Taurus, I just know about me and we all have different placements

The part about saying what u need to say & wondering if the other person will understand - my Taurus friends are kinda like this too .. I'm very understanding about what is said during a time they are being a little open, but a lot is left out.. one of the Taurus told me that none of her friends ask about her & her life .. that's not true cuz I do ask these things .. after this was said , I asked how she was a little bit more .. she barely says anything .. that doesn't make much sense to me lol

explaining ourselves is not our forte - it comes out all wrong and I believe it has to do with the fact that even we don't know why we are how we are - we just are - it's like we live in the present - in every moment without wondering why or how - and then when we are asked to explain ourselves it's like a deer in the headlights lol

What I have learned about the Taurus in my life:

Listen, don't talk much. Let them vent when needed. Don't push (don't ask 20 questions.) Answer when they call (be consistent) and they will continue to do so. Do not compare your life to theirs or bring up your life when they are trying to tell you what is bothering them (don't just listen with the intention to reply, listen with the intention to truly hear what they are saying). Do what you say you are going to do. If they can count on you consistently, they will open up to you more. If they want advice, they will ask for it. Otherwise, they are just venting. Don't bring up the past if they don't want to talk about it. Just be understanding and open minded, never judge. (Truth is most I know wouldn't judge you, so they expect that back. Not all, but most).

Just be there, be consistent, and listen.

sometimes - when I was very young yes - I've gotten much better - also different placements impact - when you get old enough like me you just don't GAF - lol - but I remember those days when I was young I was like that - I cared about everybody and everything outside of myself - when it came to talking about me I fell short. I was well aware of it but for a long time couldn't change it - but somehow it did change without me even being aware

one thing is for sure, don't force it - that will shut it down - buzzy flies get swatted - I'm sure your friends are great just the way they are and if you stay friends they will always be there for you and vice versa

I express if I trust you... and that takes a lot of time. But you are right it takes time and it's not that we're hiding it cause we don't like you we're just afraid to annoy people with our problems. We always have in the back of our head to be strong.

Exactly Spunky!

I have to be extremely comfortable to express the emotions that I feel make me come off as weak and I rarely get angry.

Its a combo of genuinely not feeling, not being comfortable with sharing, and not being comfortable with the feelings we feel.

Consistent nonjudgement and understanding helps.

This is exactly my Taurus friends .. I'm not a judgmental person at all , they know this .. I'm coming to the conclusion that they can't deal with their own heavy emotions much less fully express them .. it's just sad cuz 23 years of friendship is a long time ya know

Is this still Taurus we're talking about? I relate to your taurus friends about opening up. I get severe anxiety and try to play it calm.

This.

I express myself through actions, considerate and kind gestures. I give everyone the benefit of the doubt.

But...

I also evaluate what you're capable of doing once you have it.

If it's reciprocated, or appreciated at least, then I begin to feel safer.

If not, I become as quiet as a church mouse.

It will take a lifetime to get me to open up.

Yea this is my Taurus friends .. she's very kind & considerate .. very reliable friend, always there for me.. just wish she would open up more .. I think we just need to spend more time together like we used to , she opens up more in person .. I open up more in person as well BUT if I know I won't be seeing my friends any time soon I'll let them know over the phone , usually through text

They just like playing mysterious.

Short sentences with perfect grammar. Typical Taurus broad.
