Understanding Taurus Men's Communication Style
Taurus men can be slow to open up and may appear distant or shy initially. Their communication often reflects caution and patience, not necessarily disinterest. If he seems inconsistent, it could be due to his reserved nature rather than anger or a lack of interest. Giving him time and space may improve your connection.
I'm tryna give him the benefit of the doubt but I Dont have a lot of patience for games..
Lmfao...she would've murdered this blog by now...‚‚‚
Haha
Exactly
So just wait patiently one more time, if not just go do your thing, since it seems you guys tried to work out your past problems. And can't or won't or doesn't have the time.
Mabey some ppl are just better off left in out fantasies smh
I for a woman here don't like playing games I am either all in or out. And since I have airy placements as well as fixed. I am not going anywhere till we talk mutually about even if I detach first.

I have to ask for permission from @busyeyes88 first before I comment anything on Taurus men. So, I'm waiting.
I already know what she would say...
"You gave him your number?!!! Taurus menare hunters!!! They want to chase after you, hit you over the head and drag you back to their cave!!!"
only she would probably write it with more exclamation points ‚
Haha

Taurus guy finally found the courage to approach me and give me his number n now he seems like a friggin airhead...
What are the odds, is he shy or a jerk??
The day I got it I had a late night n decided to tx him the next evening and ....nothing...
He just asked who I was n never txd after I told him..I left it at that and decided to try again this evening I told him I didn't see him around my job today n asked him if he was off today just to strike up conversation... He just replied some dumb ass emoji symbol for fire n put back next to it ...
I asked wtf it mean n he didn't reply...Right now I'm pissed..after all this he seems like a fukin idiot
Wtf is he mad I didn't tx him the same day I got his number or what— I'm ready to tell him he's weird and avoid him forever...
So...you liked him..WAITED for HIM to approach YOU..and now you're pissed you don't like him, so you call him an airhead?

Hello!!! ACTUALLY READ the OP post before giving an opinion on the TAURUS board. You are not even a taurus. And to top it you gave no opinion!!
THE OP SAID :
The day I got it I had a late night n decided to tx him the next evening and ...NOTHING..
He just asked who I was n NEVER txd after I told him.."Is this clear enough for you?!!

I didn't know the DXP board was segregated.
Yes, I did read it. Just because I don't agree, doesn't mean I didn't read.
About my opinion: Did it ever occur to you that I might give it afterwards?
From my experience, all the Taurus guys I've ever known have been bad testers. Sometimes their phone is dead for a few days and here I am, waiting for a text back. Sometimes they see it and put off replying and eventually forget. They're kind of lazy apparently (quoting one of them about it here).
They're also pretty slow with romance so he may just be taking his time or might be waiting for you to make another move that spells out romance to him.
Also, they use emojis to express what words will fail to explain and an interpretation of the fire emoji could mean that he got fired, which would make sense if you haven't seen him around work. He may be embarrassed about it and doesn't know how to tell you that.
"They're kind of lazy apparently (quoting one of them about it here)."
He's being lazy. Next time a guy give you his number don't call, instead give him your number and then see if he'll follow up.
Some of these guys are just lazy and want to see if a woman is desperate enough to chase him down and do all of HIS "getting to know you work." and he's invested NOTHING so he doesn't care if you come or go, he can SAVE his energy while she does all the relationship work.
You initiating that text let him know you're interested so don't text him again. If he doesn't follow up with you dump his phone number and forget about him and dump whatever fantasy/idea you had about him because it wasn't an accurate depiction of who he really is.

1) u should never be 'waitiing' you should be getting on with your own life
2) the Tauruses I know including myself DO NOT use emojis to replace words. We use words followed by emojis
3) My Taurus has never ever seen a message of mine and then not replied. And if he has not replied straight away, he may be driving , he responds to tell me that he was driving etc. he NEVER forgets!
So the 'advice' you been getting may not have been from a 'Taurus'!

Okay clearly you're not great at getting the main point of what people are saying but still love trying to put them down.
When I say 'waiting', I don't mean sitting by your phone for a few days and hoping they'll text you back. I mean that you need to have some patience before starting to get pissed off.
Well instead of telling me that Taureans don't use emoji, why don't you give us a LOGICAL AND BELIEVABLE explanation for what that fire emoji was supposed to even mean.
Okay that's your Taurus MAN, I'm basing my advice off of the common traits I've noticed in 5 Taurus men that I've had both great friendships and romantic relationships with.
Also, the way you describe your man, you might as well put him on a leash. It sounds like your Taurus man is scared of you and I can see why, if you go around making accusations like those.

Additionally, what's the thing with tests— Are girls fine with guys testing them? Do girls like that? Why even would a guy test a girl— I just don't get what's up with that? Where is it even coming from - the taureans and their tests—

Haha sorry about that, it's supposed to say text. All hail autocorrect 🙂

Go ahead! I'm sure the Taurus will have fun 'wiping the floor with you'.Also why are you giving advice to this OP when you have a thread of your own with Taurus problems you can't even deal with?! Isn't that a bit like 'the blind leading the blind'?!
Haha i know nothing about your Taurus other than what you've described; you're the one who basically made him sound like your slave. Who here agrees?
People come on here looking for advice but it is the advice-giver's responsibility to put their advice in respectful and helpful terms. There's two types of criticisms: constructive helps while destructive destroys. Its as simple as that.
My issue isn't the same as this user's but her issue is something I've experienced several times firsthand so I can definitely relate to it and share what I learned in that situation. I don't see what my asking for advice on a different issue has to do with my ability to give advice on an unrelated issue.
Sometimes people act on whim, and their feelings are different the next moment. Don't take it to heart.
Yeah don't get treated with disrespect for sure. If a guy is interested he will call 24/7..
I'm not gonna be rude to him or anything Ima just gonna wait and see what he does next and if its nothing then so be it

I remember your story, the guy who would come around your workplace but wouldn't talk, right?
Like I said earlier, interested but shy. Some men are not great at texting!
And did you really say "wtf" to him?? Lol
My taurus guy used to use emojis when he wouldn't know what to say without sounding offensive or doesn't wanna appear too eager or when he couldn't find the right words to pacify me!
All men are not great at texting! I would be wary of someone too good at it 😄
True but I feel like he wants me to jump through 5THOUSAND Hoops now... Like dude just man up n be real omg

No, the fact that he gave you his number, you reach out and he then disappears on you is either game playing on his part or sheer poor social skills. Eitherway, I would leave him alone because it seems like incredible immature behavior. This isnt elementary school, so no one should be playing phone tag.

Amen
OP, I dealt with the same behavior from a guy who happened to be a Taurus. His behavior was immature, inconsistent, and he was being a real jerk. In my experience, I left him alone and haven't looked back.

Just by your username it indicates an overly arrogant attitude which isn't warranted. Surely you cannot be that precious to actually think this is the way the real world works?
I think you'll find there are more than two types of criticism. Allow me to indulge you by offering this link:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varieties_of_criticism
As for it being the advice givers responsibility to put their advice in respectful and helpful terms, I must have missed signing that contract. Perhaps you could contact the DXP legal team and have them forward it to my solicitor.
I think your view of the advice givers role is a subjective one. If you don't like it or it doesn't fit in with you then don't worry about it. Why should people have to conform and change their personality and delivery to suit you? Not everything that is sugar coated is helpful.
I'll have yo let this one go its just been a lot of games from day one and I don't have the energy for it...oh well such is life ‘👎

You have no idea who I am or what my username means. Most usernames aren't as straightforward as you may think, so if you're judging based on usernames, I don't even know what to tell you. I'm perfectly aware of how the real world works and also of its many faults.
Once again, taking my words at face value without even considering the message I'm trying to convey.
I agree that there are more than just two types of criticisms in existence but the only ones that apply here are the two I mentioned. Excuse me if I'm wrong in assuming that architectural criticism is irrelevant here.
When you're on this website, you're taking out time from your (presumably) busy life to advise someone on how to handle a specific situation.

Whe
Yes^^^ the last paragraph, so stop moaning when someone does take time to provide advice irrespective of whether you like it or agree with it.
go and fuck a tree - lmao - mum used to say go fuck a duck ...
to the thread poster - he gives you his number then he blows you off when you text him ... that smells of young and dumb ... I guess he was thinking you would jump at the chance to text him once he threw out his number to you - he is obviously not worth it ... tell him to kiss your ass !

When you talk to or date a lot of people it stops you getting attached to one emotionally. Anyone really.
I think this is true. They say the likes of Tinder etc make people ambivalent about it all as its too easy to keep on swiping.
