I just found out today that I am pregnant. The father is a taurus male who is 29 and I am 23. We act as if we are in a relationship but technically there is no label which makes the situation worse. He is out of town this weekend so I am waiting to tell him when he gets back. Other taurus males how would you react to this? And what is the best way to go about telling him?

Not saying all Tauruses are this way, but the one I know got at least 3 girls pregnant. One woman he swore up and down tried to trap him (which happens I guess, though who would do that?) And the other two he kept his distance (I think to figure out stuff?). All I know for sure is that he is good to his kids and seems to be civil with the women, one he is with now.

I would say that's a tough one because if there is no label to begin with to define your relationship, not sure if this will convince him otherwise since you can't make Taurus men do anything if they are not ready. So, I agree with RomacingA that I would definitely be worried because he will become very distant for a long while and you will have to give him that space to work things out in his head especially if you were not already in a committed relationship. Plus, 23 is quite young....

Sorry it has taken so long to update. I told him and while he was also freaked out he didn't shut me out. We decided to have an abortion because neither of us are financially ready and we aren't even together (what's done is done so I'm not interested in everyone's stance on this issue). for the couple weeks up until reaching that decision he was by my side the whole time call/texted every day asking about me, I was over at his place almost every night, and we were constantly together. He went with me to the appointment and paid for everything and even the next day said he would leave work if I needed him.

It's been a little less than a week now though and he kinda seems to have distanced himself. He still calls or texts just about every day but I feel like he never wants to see me in person. It kinda sucks because with everything this is when I want to be with him most.

In general our relationship is still the same...Confusing. I don't really know whether to keep trying with him or what. I already have ups and downs from everything that has happened and I don't know if I can take the uncertainty of our relationship anymore because it's hard to feel like he's having his cake and eating it too even though I don't have solid proof of that it just feels that way.

I'm mad at myself for letting this situation happen and sometimes I wish we would've never met because the taurus ups and downs just feels so crappy. This is my first time having a "relationship" with a taurus male and they just seem so careless and selfish when it comes to others and as a pisces I just don't understand.

Personally, I can feel for the Taurus's confusion right now. Pregnancy is something serious, and will cause the most confusion between two people who aren't committed. It forces you to deal with the permanency of having someone in your life before you're even ready to do so.

I'm thinking when he found out you were pregnant and was deciding on what to do, he was also thinking about what it would be like to have you permanently in his life. It may not have been something he was comfortable with could he choose otherwise. You guys had to deal with a situation before you built the foundation to do so.

I don't think he's being selfish, disrespectful, or devaluing you in anyway. He kept in contact, paid for the entire abortion, was supportive, told you he'd drop things to be by your side if you needed him, etc. I think he just realized he's not ready to be serious with you, and the pregnancy forced him to see that, OR he still needs time to think about how he's gonna proceed with the relationship after something this heavy. ANY man and woman would need a breather after this.

If you want to know where the relationship is going, just ask him...I'm sure he'll be honest, most Taurus men are.

If you become pregnant unexpectedly, looking at all of the options and deciding on what to do can be very overwhelming. Pregnancy is always a happy event even if it is unplanned.

Hope all goes well for you. His decision is the same a Taurus guy of mine made when his previous girlfriend got pregnant so I expected it before you posted it. Financial security is important to a Taurean. He's not being selfish or mean just practical. Just learn from this mistake and don't let it happen again. It's not just Taurus guys, but ANY guys would be unhappy at the prospect of becoming a father when they had not planned to be.
