Taurus man = slow—

I've met a Taurus man and he either has a GF (although he has said that he's single), just isn't that interested in me, or moves really slow. I can't figure it out. I've never experienced something like this in my life lol

Are Taurus men really this slow?

I think regardless of zodiac sign, people do what they want to do. And if he was interested whether he was slow moving, passive, or aggressive, you would know. Sounds like he's just not interested

Yeah I think he's just not that interested but I have heard Taurus men are slow to come to the game.

they won't make any fast movements but there are other ways to tell if they are interested or not.

Hummmm...... I would probably be OK with that but we also have some physical distance between us. So his normal MO / routine probably wont work for us. Bummer.... he seemed like a cool guy.

Taurus at slow at everything, when I go to the convinient store I will usually take 30 minutes deciding what kind of munchies i want. I just want to make 100% sure I really want them. And I have to see all my options of snacks in the store.

Read my thread : Taurus : subtle seducers. That may help. Distance is nothing for a Taurus if they are truly interested. But they are way slow! They are not even good at keeping with friendships !!!

that's interesting busy about the distance. it is contrary to what i have heard taurus men say.

I'm so inpatient! lol

Maybe it's just me!! I'm beginning to seem more like my 1966 fire horse instead of a taurus. My relationships work far better for.me when it is LDR!!! Lol lol my leo moon fucks it all up!! At LDR my venus in pisces can make it all rosy in my head!! Smh 😢

it's certainly not for me to say what taurus feel. i just know you guys are a physical bunch. my understanding was that you need to touch and see in the flesh in order to maintain any kind of decent connection. i'm happy to be wrong though 🙂

Agree +10000000

My guy that I have feelings for is like we can't work right now because I go to a college an hour away and I'm like okay so? It's only an hour big deal.. I can still drive there. Haha I'm way too optimistic.

hummm..... makes me wonder even more now. We had a chance to be physical and he passed it up but after that moment we had dinner, drinks, and a night out on the town. And then he called me a couple of days later after we go back. He must have a GF.
I am a Cancer woman.

cc711.. why so desperate for having relationship?

Not desperate. I just thought he was a cool dude and we made a connection, which I don't make often with men. He must feel the same way because he started texting and calling me when we got back - just not as often as I would like lol.

I'm beginning to get the impression that Taurus makes are extremely lazy hence 'slow'!! Slow perhaps is not the correct word 'lazy' is a better word!! Emotionally and physically lazy in terms of romance . A woman has to keep in contact with them or chase them first?!!

My taurus make friend was hot on my heels at the beginning but when he found out that the cookies were staying in the jar till I sussed out his intentions he became disinterested and sarcastic with his comments / responses to my calls or my texts so I have left him to it.. Told him he would always mean a lot to me but I would never contact him again and if he does not want contact to just say so. He then tried to redeem himself by sending me a picture of a live band playing at his daughters birthday party.. I ignored it.. And not responded since. Taurus v taurus = checkmate

haha lazy! I thought that too!

I will admit, I am lazy.

You should just straight up ask if he has a girlfriend. Or, if you two have any mutual friends, ask your friends if he has a girlfriend if you are too shy to ask yourself *Its okay, I would be too*.

I mean you're a Cancer a woman, He's a Taurus.... you two already have great compatibility. All my sextile friendships or fwbs were always very easy going and I really enjoy their presence and company. Some one my longest and strongest friendships have been sextile. So you have a chance with any Taurus.

I asked him when we met and he said he did not have a GF. His communication style is just not what I'm used to. So perhaps he's slow, lazy, wasn't being truthful, or just isn't that interested in me. We spent a day together and had a really good time. Good chemistry. I thought we had a good connection.

what do you expect from him in terms of communication? and if you didn't get it would it be a problem? how long have you known each other?

The Taurus I was talking to was very much as described by busy. We live 1 hr apart. I would drive to him because he lived in a city so he didn't need/have a car since he used public trans. I didn't mind. I like driving anyways. In response to busy's second post...w my Taurus things "died" when I did not give equal chase. My motive was to not seem clingy because we both had 2 jobs and he did music as well, and I had school. So I tried to not be a clinger...and it backfired. He became cold/distant and sarcastic. The moment I knew it died was when he finally did text me (which I was waiting for) he said "I can tell you really miss me lol" which I DID but this was the breaking point. Even though I explained myself it was too late. I tried to hold on to what we had..(one of my great weaknesses in any relationship) but it was gone.

We had great chemistry. I think the signs are if they do the little things without expecting much in return that is a huge sign. EX: I went to my Taurus house and I really don't get how this happened but all of a sudden I became painfully hungry. No idea, but he made me waffles and a smoothie! I lit up like Christmas. They do the little things. Before I blew it, we would have 2-3 hour phone convos (his Venus is Gemini so he loved the convos because we never ran out of things to say and found deep interest in each other). We had the same religious views, we both didn't use microwaves (lol), we stopped eating fast food, we both made music and liked the same music. In one convo we had at his house, he made a pause as he searched for the word he was looking for, and we ended up choosing the same word and said it at the same time because I tried to finish his sentence/help him think of a word that described the actor he was trying to describe LOL. It was "He has such a great...'presence'" was the word.

The moral of my rambling is this: the signs may be subtle but they are there. Depending on their moon & Venus placements, the signs may be different but the little things were the signs my Taurus gave me.

We had a fun weekend in NYC where we met. I just thought we would keep the momentum going because before we left he asked if I wanted to keep in touch which I said yes to. We have known each other for 2 weeks. As an example, I texted him on Wednesday after not hearing from him since Friday and he said he would call Wednesday night. He did but I couldn't talk at that moment and called him back. He hasn't called or texted since Wednesday. I'm just used to having guys call or text every other day or 2. I get everyone is busy but I just thought we would keep the connection going.

Additionally even though they don't expect things in return, I would still try to do little things back in return. He told me how even though he didn't eat fast food anymore he could never cut off taco bell because he loved supreme steak wraps, so as a surprise I brought him one when I went to visit about a week later.


Now once the deal is done, I would say let it be done (once you determine if he is single or not). As I said, I tried to reciprocate texting first, communicating first AFTER his decision, and he put me in what would be known as the Taurus "harlem" (as I have seen busy call it in posts- hopefully I am speaking right). Well I refused this, and I was very broken and sad...and overall blew up (Mars in Sag took over). I am a bit of a softie and apologized later but said my decision stood. He flirts to see what my responses will be and I ignore/blow the advances off, because I know HIS decision stands and so should MINE. We are still managing to be friends though, probably not the best idea but I am bad at completely severing ties...especially in this situation because I feel like I could have done more or I am the guilty one. Granted I blamed him at first and was angry, but it is apparent that thing started to fall apart when he initially commented "you must really miss me" so it started with me.

Be careful and good luck!

i think you're moving too fast for taurus. 2 weeks is hardly any time and calling or texting every other day at this point is a mighty big ask. you might just need to be patient and don't place too many demands on something that has barely begun yet.

@DI.
You only become part of the harem if you have sex with him before establishing a solid friendship / relationship and not knowing what your status is. This taurus friend did not like the fact that I did not have sex with him whilst establishing a friendships and basically told me in a certain way that unless I slept with him he would not hang out with me (he said: every time is see you I see sex and I dont want to suffer like that). So being a platonic friend has proved difficult as he gets on his high horse probably due to the fact that I did not have sex with him. So a week ago today he pissed me off by treating my texts message with suspicion just because his ex girlfriend did that (he also has a VIG) and i basically said

"i'm not your ex or your girlfriend. I don't give a shit about what you do as long as you are happy and are ok. You will mean something to me so I will never cut off contact with you first. But if you find you don't want me to be on contact with you just say. Because when you treat my words with suspicion and all I did was show genuine concerns it just upsets Me and makes me.wonder why I bothered in the first place.. It's not fair. Bye"

He tried to redeem himself by sending me pics of live band playing at his daughters birthday. I read it and did not respond and have not text him since. When I am done I am done.

oh god..well I totally misinterpreted the entire situation...lol...well I tried my best to interpret and use myself as an example. oops. well hopefully some of what I said was relevant regarding Taurus men and i didn't sound like a complete ditz. I need to learn to be done and stay done...a life lesson that will hopefully come to me soon.

We are not lazy. We work hard, hardly have any friends because I have so much on my mind and plate making sure I'm stable. And we are picky has hell. Not just going to settle. . Because my mind is fixed earth and fixed air so I already planned my entire list of expectations and what I need..

. So you get alittle emotions from me..if I like you though I'll give you all the attention in the world, call you alot. Sometime I wait to see if you call first. I'll open up within a few months.. if it's a connection.

@@PV&Jellay- How long do you wait before getting involved with someone?
I tend to be fast and slow at the same time. IT gets exhausting mentally....but the older I get I slowed
down...because I have nothing but time to get to know you. Actually 1-2 years of getting to know you if there is a Connection..

You would think because I am a Taurus and all. So I would know how to handle a Taurus moon. And I think is if I stay patient and loyal enough I get some excitement out of it and then I think oh I just need to cook a great meal and have some great conversations. Lucky I have air moon but damn it's harder than it looks.

To a Taurus moon it's not about sex right away either..to a Taurus sun it's not about sex right away. So where is there the balance between this?

The longer I slow my roll the more red flags. The faster I go, keep up because it means you possibly met your match. I need someone to keep up. But not like Sagittarius or Gemini.. right in the middle. Must be logical and balance.

If I am not comfortable I slow my roll and sit back and watch your actions..see irl it's different I am used to online 21 questions before I meet up in person. Now I only met one person irl that I have sat back and watched. It was cool untill I really started liking that person. Then I still ask 21 questions about stability and your past relationship status and stuff..lol.. then I can spot the red flags quicker than online..it's weird. I still get lied to both places.. It is really if you want to lower standards and go with the flow..and since I don't call you out on your bullshit instead I distance myself alot and shut down.

Yeah I am fixed venus too. Yeah I am older and that guideline maybe a comprehensive list. But maybe I'm getting all sentimental now.

So I guess for now I can say he's interested and just moves very slow! He called tonight and we had a nice conversation. Just slow lol

I guess my main question of if he was interested has been answered because he called me last night. He just moves way slow. Not sure how much I should initiate or wait on him for. I'm a little out of my element with this one. Usually I know just what to say but not so much here.

@ busy- yeah as I am older now and I'm single with no kids. I guess the 3-6 months is fine. I am fast forward but I don't want to marry or have kids with just anyone..Lol. I suppose since I attract fast moving sun signs Ishould buck up. But iI wwon't settle for less..
