Taurus has me confused!

I recently set up an online dating account and within 2 days, I seem to have caught the interest of a Taurus male.

The conversation was interesting and flowed really well, we exchanged numbers (I offered mine as an alternative to using the website) and we were texting regularly - usually by his initiation.

After just over a week, he asked if we could meet so we arranged a day and time to suit us both and planned a casual meet up as opposed to a date.

We went on a lovely walk in nice weather, he was very interested in what made me tick and what my general story was and also offered tidbits about himself. He was funny, charming and I could sense that he was quite shy with eye contact at times.

We were out for a couple of hours in the end and we parted with a hug as I thanked him for a nice night and the drinks he bought me.

He text an hour after to ask if I'd got home safe, so I replied and thanked him again as I'd enjoyed his company and now...nothing.

No texts or response the next day when I asked how his day went as usual.

Can anyone let me in on this Taurus secret. I'm wondering what I should be doing. He's very attractive to me and we're very matched when it comes to a simple life and being stable.

Thanks in advance, not sure what other details to give.

Too soon to tell.

What is your zodiac sign?

That is just online affair. Aarrgggh

1st, Taurus are gentle kind of a guy.

2nd, He was trying to know you by asking questions.

3rd. He might realized he doesnt have attraction after meeting you in person.

I'm Gemini, though often don't find that I feel like one.

I was wondering if it might be the attraction thing, but it's not the feeling I got when with him. He lingered when he hugged me and the eyes said a lot.

Is this ghost effect the way he would show this though? It's a very cold and confusing way to let me down.

(I am aware he's had quite the impression on me, so my judgement may be off).

When a taurus man likes you. You dont feel confusion and dont even let you wondering.

When I met this bull of mine. He sent bunch of a msgs everyday and it was annoying because I had work to take care of..and I replied him after 2-3 hrs.

Excuse me for catching you on a bad day?

I asked how his day was, that was it. I have been busy, getting on with my work and errands as usual.

I wasn't expecting 'an immediate response' about the date, I was carrying on how we had been the previous week or more.

Also, I am not 'chasing men', please take your presumptions elsewhere!

I'd give it a couple of days. If he doesn't respond to you within the week or reach out to you, then assume he's not interested. Like an above poster had said, it's possible that after meeting you he may have lost interest potentially... But that's why I'm saying to give it a week. Maybe something came up on his end, maybe not, but if he doesn't get back to you by then, it's likely he's moved on.

I say this as a Taurus male who has tried online dating. You can chat up a storm prior to meeting but meeting and chatting are such different experiences. You can't feel body language and seeing how the chemistry is in person can really change things up. If I meet someone for the first time and I lose interest, I tend to either let them know then and there or I just move on and don't really reach out as much. You tend to know when a Taurus wants you. We're persistent as hell.

True... I think what confuses people is they think persistent = clingy.

You may persistently go after someone, but on your own time table.... seems that bulls takes ages to get to a point, but you are moving consistently (in your mind)... to others who are not a bull or have a bull aspect you haven't moved one bit.

I think that is where things get confusing.

I will say as a Taurus moon and venus, I can feel a connection/attraction with someone without around them, but when we are physically around each other... there is none. Me being a pisces... I just disconnect rather than blurt out.. yeah... not feeling ya. Sorry.

@OP will say, no offense, after a week and a half... that is how I'm reading your time table. There is no way to know if you are truly compatible. Keep your head... you're getting caught up.

Taurus' are usually not rude or mean spirited...unless you pissed them off. They are blessed with Vensus' light so, they are truly attractive, beautiful people (inside and out), and pleasant.

I would give him is space...if he wants to talk, let him initiate. Go about your business and enjoy being single. I know it is tough to do with Taurus men...oh god trust me I know. I have no idea why they can do that voodoo they do so well, but they do wield that magic power.

Keep dating, searching. Don't stop just because you had ONE great date and SOME lovely conversations. It's nice and all, but don't box yourself in... if you do... you will obsess (like you are starting to, no offense) about him not texting you the next day after a date that lasted for hours.

Taurus like to, how do I put this... process things... that can take a while. You have to be able to handle long periods of silence especially in the beginning and have the patience of a saint. If this doesn't sound good to you... bail now while no feelings are really involved.

Yeah, you're right, totally on our own time table. However, depending on that time table, that's kinda how you can tell how much we want you, y'know? Like if we take say, a week to a couple of weeks to a month, to get back to you, we "sorta" like you. If we take less than a week to get back to you, we "really" like you. If we take months, we're "not as" into you but still hold out some hope. And if we don't get back to you at all, we're not into you at all.

I need to meet someone first to see if there's a connection. For one, I like to feel a person out both emotionally and physically. Is she comfortable with my touch? Am I able to be myself around her? Sometimes I go on dates and I'm so uncomfortably guarded that I tend to know that if someone makes me feel this way, it's most likely not going to work out. It's those rare instances where I'll meet someone, and I can be totally naked around them (not physically naked) and be me, I know that's a good match because they could bring the best me out of me.

Thanks all. Patience is something I have in bundles, obviously that hasn't come across as I popped in here to ponder.

I would rather have been inquisitive here, than to him.

I've not been talking to others, hence why I may come across focused. I'm not ready to put all my eggs in his basket - in any way and I'm still looking forward, whether that's a date with someone else or just trundling along happily as I have been.

Again, thank you for all the advice. It's a curious streak of mine, I'm not a pest like I seem to have made out 😛

lol... don't worry about being inquisitive... I'm known for asking many questions... poor Taurus on here and in my personal life. The Taurus I've been seeing is extremely patient and informative with my questions. He never looked at me sideways for all the random and off the wall questions that pop in my mind.

Anywho...feel free to ask... you may have to deal with some bullbutter here and there, but if you just keep reminding us, hey ya'll this is just me being curious then we will lay off. I don't know if you posted a lot, but welcome regardless. 🙂

OH MY! This... this... this! lol

You just nailed my actions/feelings.

Thanks Tbird, glad I'm not alone in my inquisitiveness!

It's my first post 🙂 I've had a good nosey on this site for a while but thought I'd come out of the shadows and post for a change ha

Best description.

I can't stress this enough.

I often ask people...

"How are you coming across?"

"Why is this Bull so guarded around you...after 5 months...10 months...two years?"

"Why hasn't there been any progress?"

We do tend to "organically" connect with people who show us who they really are...and what is it they really want.

A Bull with certainty, is a Bull at ease.

The horns come down.

The hoof prints now has the flexibility to graze around, and isn't stuck in the mud.

And the Venusian energy shines!
