just an innocent question??

Don’t know if this makes sense to a Taurus or this is just him but I called him yesterday, he didn’t answer. I just sent a msg saying i thought he might be around and I’ll call tomorrow.

He replied about 20 mins later asking what’s up he’s just working

I said nothing was up I just wanted to talk

He then asked What about to which I repeated my previous statement.

And it went round again. This has happened before and I don’t know how to respond to it.

For me if someone can’t talk and they are busy I just leave it for another time but always asking what it’s about unnerves me.

Was I expected just to msg what I would have said on the phone?

Because to me I took it as, if it’s not important I don’t want to talk to you. Since you are so straight forward I’m wondering if I completely took it the wrong way and it was just an innocent question??

you're overthinking.

it's just a male vs female miscommunication.

he mostly likely talks if there is a purpose/intention to it (stereotypical masculine way of communicating). he assumed you did the same. you called just to chew the fat (a more female way to communicate).

stop looking for problems where there are none.




Thanks! I was hoping you would reply. I should have just stated my intention which was to ask about a meeting he had and just update him with my situation. I stupidly chickened out thinking it was a silly reason.

understandable. those early stages are difficult to manage.

neither person is really showing all their cards. there's a fear that somehow it's all going to fall apart so neither tread too heavily.

at some point you both will drop the pretence and let it all hang out. but be confident! easier said than done but he likes you as a person. just feel safe in that knowledge to be yourself.

Feels a bit like a minefield sometimes because he’s so sensitive as well!

you can't spend the next 40 years walking eggshells. at some point you have to say this is me. get onboard now or stop wasting each other's time.

Lmfao it is a male Earth sign thing

Lol like others have said, don't over think it and have fun with it ~

Tease him 😆 x




Good idea! It would help me loosen up I think as well

Lol trust me, Earth signs lahv to laugh and Taurus ESPECIALLY lahvs to laugh, they are just soo00oo kind of, I wouldn't say shy, but usually just reserved in public. They know who they're close with and yah. You usually only rlly see like their authentic ~ moments when they're #intoxicated lmfao!

But yah, if you tease him a bit and just like show him you're cool and normz, he will open up x

But don't be too pushy or weird either, Taurus likes their space

good luck gorl x

I try not to overthink and I’m much better at it but sometimes it gets me! More so if I’m tired. He usually likes my humour so i might as well have fun with it!

I wouldn't overthink it...probably just double-checking to make sure it wasn't anything urgent...if ever I know someone is like waiting to tell me something even semi-important, it drives me insane....like if I get a text that says "need to talk", I will call immediately so I don't have a panic attack....


That had crossed my mind which is why I asked to see if anyone else has dealt with that before. He probably did need to know what it was about before he had an attack too 😂

I just was wondering what the big deal was lol
