Same guy from a previous post from a few months ago.

My Taurus and I have been going back and forth with his hot/cold nature. Recently we took a trip and it was his very first time flying. We had an awesome trip but a slight disagreement on the layover home. I was very irritated with him and I felt he was ungrateful, I set up this whole trip based on him. I feel this escalated when we reached our hometown and I missed a call and text.

He sent a text to stating: “You don’t have to call or text back, that was an accident.”

Mind you the text and call were 20 mins apart.

He has done this in the past, I have a previous detailed post regarding this.

He unfriended me and blocked my number for a time, I think he started to feel insecure. Due to past “trust issues” therefore our week has been hectic. I went into an emotional rant about he didn’t care for me and how it was truly taking a toll on me. However for the first time in a while he told me the truth about his feelings. I will summarize:

• He loves me, if he didn’t have these strong feelings for me, he would have walked away a long time ago.

• He says that he knows he will truly never let me go

• He says that I am a good woman, my air of mystery will surely attract a man who is going to want to marry me.

• He says I am perfect in every way but he knows he cannot give me what I desire (a fully committed relationship) because he doesn’t trust me.

• He wants to continue speaking and hanging out.

• He also unfriended me from fb because he says he doesn’t want to see me happy with the new person….

After this talk we hung out the following days and he told me he loved me again, I ended up telling him, that I love him as well, however if he doesn’t feel like he can provide me with what I desire, then I cannot settle for a FWB situation. I have holding on to reconciliation.

I want to get his trust back and I’m not sure if the phone thing is the true reason or if he is holding on to not wanting to hurt his child’s mother, which was the reason we separated in the first place. It might be both. We work well together and have no other issues..

Also he has unblocked my number it was only blocked for 2 days, yet he still answered when I called from my business line.

****The “trust issue” thing : He and I have been broken up since approx.. August 2016, due to baggage from his past (Child’s mother that is attached to him). We have never broke contact and still continued to see each other 3 to 4 times a week despite what he said. Around Nov. 2016 he told me that he didn’t feel like he loved me and was infatuated and that he wanted me to move on with my life. We didn’t speak for about 2 weeks, I was very hurt by these revelations because I thought we were rebuilding our relationship. So I stopped initiating contact and trying to heal myself. He of course stayed in my life, one night he randomly asks to check my phone? I gave it to him for a little while but I started getting irritated and asked for it back. Even though I wasn’t talking to any other men, he surmised my actions stated that I had indeed met a new person. Since then he claims to not trust me.

Sorry this is long...

Why does he have trust issues with you? It seems like if anything, you should be the one who doesn't trust him? I don't think you did anything wrong. Did he get cheated on or something?


It's funny, I told you before that he has your exact placements

I think he has baggage from a past relationship, that won't allow him to fully trust me. Therefore he is suspicious and insecure at times. Despite my apparent attraction.

Tbh, honest, I have had another Taurus male tell me that he is sure I have a ton of men at my beck and call because I'm so beautiful.... People don't understand that I am introverted and shy, lol.

I have a lot of Virgo and Cap in my chart.

Baggage from his baby momma, trust issues, indecisive. Can't give you a relationship only empty I love you's...Why do you want him again?
Well he isn't a verbal communicator. He is truly an actions speak louder than words person. When we are together he is affectionate and stays very close to me. The BM thing, I feel is a front, she is his safety net to run back to in case it doesn't work out with anyone. Because she never leaves. When he and I got together I could tell that his relationship with her became strained because she was definitely going off the deep end. I have a hard time letting go, we have a good connection.

Oh liking those placements! 😉

That's a bummer that he's so insecure, but that was a totally unrelated relationship so it's unfortunate he feels that way. I feel like he probably still has an attachment with his child's mother. I've been cheated on too, but I try not to let that get in the way of a new relationship y'know? Give the person a fair shot. I'd say you should leave, but it must be tough to as a Leo.

Honestly, I've neeeeeeeever understood that argument that guys/girls make. "You're too beautiful and probably have a lot of dudes/girls who pursue you." Like c'mon man, that is some BS. It's probably true, but like shoot, if that was going on and THAT person was obviously into me and we were an item, I'd be all over it and be super happy and proud of our partnership. That wouldn't be a problem at ALL.

"i'm always numero uno, "

The above statement that you made... That is why the Taurus is here.. To bring you down a peg or two.... It's your attitude. He obviously feels inadequate and can't give you what you want...
I see but I don't come across to him as wanting to be number one priority,I've just had men put me there.. We both have lives, children and other focuses, so I'm looking for reciprocation in an exclusive commitment, like before he withdrew.

That's what I was thinking too, I swear this has been a rollercoaster for almost two years. I think the insecurity is making him indecisive.

That's his issue though y'know? If you've been faithful this whole time and he's STILL insecure, what makes you think he ever will be?

Once a Taurus has a trust issue with you, it will never go off. No matter how hard you tried or he tried.. it will be from trust issue to vain (aka out of love) and only rather to bang you or keeping you to gain something.

Plus, why the fuck would you want him back? Only for the attention?
I like his overall personality and we click really well. He is really the first person I dated after my marriage. I'm working on letting go... Even though I don't feel as if I am the core of this trust issue.

Yea, y'all are right. He will forever be stuck in this place of insecurity with me. I just feel like effort would fix things, but there is literally nothing I can do to fix it, because I haven't done anything. But in his mind I am lying and hiding something.

Dear Leo,

I love your placements there. Virgo with Venus in Leo myself. One of my best friends is a positive Leo.

I suggest you move on instead of clinging to this guy cos you deserve better.

Well, my Taurus had a ex Leo gf for a very long time. They had great chemistry and their temperament/self-orientedness are a reflection of each other such that they can talk nonsense, play around each other and have great fun. He's still in contact with her and is very loyal but he can't stay in a relationship with her despite the chemistry.

The trust issue here can be more than what you thought or what he is willing to let you in on.

Just a hunch, but from your quarrels during the trip and the way things are resolved in the past couple years, I don't feel he has a stable relationship with you.

For those of us with good Taurus relationships, we resolve quarrels immediately or are able to come to a common ground with deeper understanding of each other. But from the reaction of your Taurus and the way he came about on and off, it isn't progressing or should I say not going anywhere.

If I try no contact with my Taurus, he'd be the one who comes after me. Even after quarrels, he'd listen. He might say crazy things when he's worked up but we'd never miscommunicate about the frequency of calls or wonder about each other what each other is thinking. We can exchange places with each other and think about what leads each other to a certain action. Truth be told, I can write a novel on my Taurus and on his every behaviour, even things he has never told me before. I can predict his every action and thinking. We have common ground together.

From your story, I sense a lot of emotion, but not understanding and trust. Very few common actions or ground. You don't seem to understand or relate what is going on in his mind and gives us the correct explanation behind his action. If that's the case, he will have trust issues with you.

That's my feel here.

You could hang on and keep trying, but could just be wasting your time.

I believe you when he says he loves you but he's not saying that he's in love with you there is a very big difference.

My prediction is nothing is going to change with this man because he's not in love with you he's trying to subtly tell you that but you're not getting it.

By this time next year your post are going to be exactly the same chasing after a man who doesn't want you with a little bit of Hope here and there but you will not get a commitment with this man because he's not in love with you.

So this time next year either you will have love yourself to have moved on or you will still be posting the same s*** about the same guy who's not going to give you any more than what he's giving you cuz he's not in love with you so I really am not going to have to read any feedback I'll just watch your post because they're not going to change because he's not in love with you and you're not getting it.

Bulls are a lot of things, but we're never indecisive.

It's not his emotions that are conflicted, it's the possibility of longevity that is delaying his decision to move forward that is conflicted.

This stems from a myriad of issues that has nothing to do with you personally ( ie, baby-mama issues, insecurity, inadequacy, etc).

Honestly,

I do believe that he IS in love with you.

However,

Unfortunately for you, you have a an un-evolved Bull on your hands who hasn't yet figured out a way to combat his insecurities and effectively communicate what his wants and needs are in a relationship.

Because he's a Bull...this transformation period may take some time. He will do it on his own time, with very little consideration for you.

My advice.

If you want him to grow up...

Keep communication lines, sporadic.

Bulls are receptive to consistency..."if it aint broke, don't fix it."

Bulls also fear "uncertainty" and "loss"...."Who wants to lose an investment that has had a permanent fixture in your life?"

Sporadic communication and indifference are the only weapons that will work in your favor.

Thank you. oddly enough He sent me a random message yesterday asking me to not call or text him he loves me, but he knows our situation will never work, I replied to let him know I respect his decision and if he wants space, I will give him that, wish him the best. I didn't send any other communication the rest of the day, and he sent me a meme later that afternoon, that he wants me to find the person who will give me everything I am asking of him.... Eventually he unfriended me on fb again, I'm not sure if he blocked my number because I haven't tried to call. The message caught me off guard because, I hadn't spoken to him since Tuesday evening. I feel like he broods over the thought of us and maybe he knows he cannot unload his current baggage enough to give me what I want.

I feel like he will be back, but I also feel like he will be very upset when he realizes that he closed this door.

His loss.

Be indifferent. Keep communication lines sporadic. Begin the weening process.

He's not there yet.

Let this be his regret.

He will come around.

He's a Bull after all.

A scorned Bull never looks back.

But a regretful Bull

Always comes back.

But don't close your heart off to other opportunities.
