Taurus individuals value independence and may resist being pursued, preferring to pursue others themselves. Their attraction to unavailable men often stems from a desire for challenge and emotional security. This behavior can be influenced by Taurus traits, but also by personal charts and past experiences. Understanding these patterns can help Taurus friends develop healthier relationships.
I noticed this in myself as well, just recently! I realized that every guy ( I can count them on one hand, not that many hehe) that I've ever truly been interested has been a guy that I pursued. I never paid any mind to guys who pursued me. For me, the rush of chasing a guy is pretty intoxicating. Though I've never used recreational drugs, the emotional turbulence that the quest for a guy's heart creates in me is something that I would liken to a high. I don't know if this is a Taurus trait, though. I've never discussed this with other Tauruses before. :O
I'm like that as well, I'm libra though, I guess it's the Venus that plays this role.

I like to chase and be chased, i'm not a Taurus sun but have a heavy influence.
I can understand this tendency in men.

I definitely understand a Libra woman in this predicament. Libra is a cardinal a masculine sign ruled by a feminine planet. Lol
I am the same way. I have tried it with guys who pursued me and it sucked worse than with the guys I pursued. It still seems self defeating though.
I'm a Virgo and I found this to be true for me. The men who pursue me come off as too strong and intense in my opinion and that causes me to distance myself a lot or disappear. However, when I chase (with more subtlety) I feel like i have more control of the pace of the chase, inadvertently, increasing my attraction for that person. It's especially intriguing noticing their reactions because the ones I've pursued are normally the shy, reserved ones and they've told me I'm too good looking for them. What they don't realize is its their humor, wit, and intelligence that caught my eye.

I agree, I get a kick out of it because it's out of my comfort zone. My personality is more reserved.

I won't lie, I don't think this has been successful for me. I love pursuing guys, but it has never worked out :/

Yeah 😢 Like I said before, I can count on one hand the number of guys I've actually had an interest in and pursued. Two of them flat out rejected me; it was disappointing but, I recovered. The others...things just fell through after a couple of weeks. However, I don't think my track record will deter me from the chase haha

yes, I thought that is where my chase thing came from - my Venus in Aries - so who knows but yes, I do like the chase but also want them to turn around and be dominate as well ... I guess it's sort of like the best of both worlds - if a guy pursues me he best have some good game for me to play along ...
I love the chase too but hate being chased. Am also a Taurus with a venus in Aries.

I've met other taureans like you! A college friend of mine really liked to chase and would always go after guys who (I thought) were out of her league. She got rejected plenty of times in our 4 years but whenever she did snag a guy, it was always someone impressive. She never took the rejection personally. It's the opposite for me. I have to be chased and I've learned I'm terrified of rejection and avoid it at all costs. The problem with that is you wind up with who goes after you not necessarily who you want lol so keep chasing!
Lol I also have Venus in Aries
do woman with venus in aries make their interest known and then like withdraw if its not reciprocated in their time of chasing?lets say a week of giving signal and then the person didnt reciprocated her advances with being touchy feely do you withdraw and never chase that person again?
I will withdrawal but it isn't always permanent. It takes a lot for me to want someone so when I want them, I WANT them!
You have no strings attached when you get involved with a type of guy that is unacceptable and I do believe it can be a thrill to chase on how fall can this go.
But eventually it will stop because someone else will show interest way more and you get to move on from the other person who wasn't or isn't your own. There's no arguings, no feelings, but memories of good times. And really can have a good time with someone ideal candidate for your needs ANYHOW. It is a adrenaline rush. Then soon fades.

The Venusian beauty rarely gets the opportunity to chase men since most guys fall all over her. She leaves a string of men disappointed because they want her and she doesn't like to be pursued. However, if the guy lets her pursue I noticed she will fall head- over- heels in love the guy. Is this a Taurus thing, or a human nature thing, or other things in her chart?
