Revealing feelings/emotions

Is it really true that Taurus guys or any Taurus in general have a hard time saying how they really feel?

Even when everyone else you talk to tells you that he must have feelings for you through certain things he does?

Some things I read say that they cant really say how they feel-its through actions. But then other things say that it should be obvious...?

In my experience. My boyfriend who is Taurus had feelings for me. For two month we hanged together, he knew how I feel and I saw he does have interest for me through subtle gestures and the way he is looking at me. My friends also noticed that. I wondered, why then is he not doing anything. I left it at that. I was patient and I was not bringing it up. I wasn't flirting, though there was great chemistry between us. I simply enjoyed his company and we had fun together until one day he opened. His reason for "slow reaction" was simply: I wanted to know you better cause I really liked you from the start.

Yes. I don't think that it's easy for any human being to say how they really feel, naturally. But Taurus (and fixed signs in general) do have the excessive pride and ego to deal with. And for Taurus in particular, being a safe player by nature doesn't help. Unfortunately, most of us would rather pass up on an amazing opportunity than make the first "big" move. Speaking from a Taurus Sun + Venus POV., with an Aries or a Gemini Venus you might run into something different.

And actions do speak louder than words in the earth sign world.

This is definitely true. My Taurus took forever to tell me how he felt about me, and even when he did it was still pretty indirect. The only time he can really say how he feels is when he's drunk lol. Even when he was trying to make it official he did it indirectly. He has such a hard time saying exactly how he feels because he wants to be seen as a "macho man", but he does show through actions. He's really touchy feely, and he'll do things like fix things for me, or clean my car out etc.

Yes and yes. I think the person's Venus or Moon might make it easier or more diffixult. But in general, its all about the actions. And at the end of the day, that's all that matters... Id rather have someone paying attention to me and supporting me and just being with me, and saying "I love you" just once, than someone who states it profusely but doesn't back it up.

Granted, you do need to say it even just that one time at some point just to make things absolutely clear. 😉

The problem is when it gets in the way of communication with a partner. It's so hard for me to say feelings out loud (I do so much better with written word), that in the midst of a conversation where I literally WANT to say something and I just can't get the words out of my mouth. It's like Ariel in the little mermaid. Or a mime...banging on the invisible box but nobody can see or hear them....

Exactly!

For me,

Expressing myself emotionally is like pulling teeth out of a woolly mammoth.
Good Luck with that one....

If you want to know how I feel about you....

Observe the way I look at you when no one or very few people are paying attention.
If it's subtle, flirtatious, inviting, gracious, humble, know that you're my whole world, and there is nothing in the world I wouldn't do for you.

How am I soothing you? Am I an active listener? Am I looking for solutions? Am I your rock? Do I have your back? Do you feel safe with me? Am I very affectionate with you when doing so?....Know that you have my heart when I'm doing so.

Talk is cheap. My A-game isn't sophisticated or seasoned enough to approach someone (Yes, even with a Venus in Aries), I can't stand a bullshitter, so I try to eliminate superficial conversations altogether. I'm actually rather shy, but I hide it very well. Blame it on the Venusian charm, or just combating nervousness.

No matter how hard I try, I CANNOT express myself verbally. I just can't. It's too awkward for me. I'd rather show someone how I feel. My parents were like this too, even though my mom is an Aries, and my dad is a Gemini - they never expressed any emotions verbally.

My boyfriend is a Taurus as well, and none of us really express how we feel about each other verbally. We SHOW each other we care for one another. We spend almost everyday together, we talk through out the day, he'll buy me food, I make him food (Taurus men LOVE home cooked meals!), he'll fix things for me, open doors for me, and always carries things inside the house for me.

We just take care of each others needs.

Do you lot like hearing the words though?

My taurus seems like he cannot hear enough of how I feel about him (but does have trouble reciprocating at times).

It's actually the same exact thing with my cancer man, which is why I think the 2 are so compatible. And as long as you are patient with each other during those times when one or the other gets upset, but neither can talk about it, you figure it out and it gets easier. But we KNOW we love each other. And when we learn we've done something the other doesn't like or hurts, we immediately take actions to fix it, and show them they matter.

Like, "I hate you, leave me alone..." (Leaves chocolate on the kitchen table as a sorry) lol
