Hello Bulls and Bullettes!

What sustains your interest in an individual long term?

I used the metaphor Bull Market as it applies to characteristics of optimism, investor confidence and expectations that strong results will continue.

How do you determine the individual you're dating is worth the time and investment to secure a long lasting future with this individual?

What are your expectations?

What makes you optimistic about this individual?

What are your expectations?
What makes you optimistic about this individual?



For me, it's more a cosmic connection, a collage of emotions that puts me in a comfort zone, vulnerability, happiness, sadness, self-reflection, and purpose. A conversation that is genuine, natural, real, non-pretentious, a warm, fleeting feeling that crosses my heart where the mere existence of this individual heightens my euphoric state...a beautiful feeling that exists as its own separate entity, not coerced or imposed...but flowing energetically and effortlessly.

My expectations?
A consistent presence in my life accompanied with absolute loyalty, reliability and honesty.

I will promise them "Always and Forever."

Any imperfection this individual possesses will be taken in stride.

Um I don't want to think too hard right now...but at the basic level- I get that lil' spark of optimism if I sense solid values, and if they're consistently consistent.lol

hmm... for me it's better not to have expectations but I always do and get bummed out when they don't meet it. I agree with Rose in the consistency part, and I need a lot of conversation, not just a listener, but also a contributor. I'm going to also echo Taurusbull and say loyalty, reliability, honesty, and for me trust and warmness(the cold silent type can be hot, but doesn't work out in relationships with me). Still until I meet him I won't really know, I have a lot of soul searching and growing to do before I can really think of the qualities and expectations I look for in a life partner.

atearth Said "A bull never travels far from home."

soultalk said "So let's say someone you did like moved away for some reason, would you give up on her?"

Now that is a question. I have a disliking of long distance relationship.

I was once interested in someone who had a visa that was about to expire, they got it renewed, now lives in another part of my country. Very manipulative person so it turns out. worked out best to have not gotten involved.

I'm now in a situation with a capricorn woman and scorpio woman. The capricorn lives a fair few hours away from me and we've talked briefly about having a long distance relationship. The scorpio woman lives only a ten minute drive from me and is entertaining the idea of study her master degree in the USA in the future.

@ soultalk, I don't know the answer to that question.

You can always sense the warmth even when they are standoffish. A Taurus friend of mine would have a blank look on his face whenever I tell him about some of my mistakes...and I look at him and go "Yeah, yeah, I know, there's no way you would've made the same errors, I'm silly like that"

One second goes by and I see this giant smile on his face...I know he's not judging me, just frazzled at how silly I act sometimes.

I read somewhere that a taurean is selfish (in a nutshell) but if you can bring out their selfless+vulnerable side out for you and only you, they are yours for the taking. Is that true?? *just wondering*

i think the selfishness is from the fact that we take care of ourselves first of all and from self preservation earth signs exihibit atleast by people who don't realize their selfishness. Yes, a person who brings that vulnerable side easily does have me for the 'taking' so to speak but they have to 'protect' my vulnerability and treat it with dignity. I expect this in love because i return it equally atleast I really try to.

I want to chime in on this discussion. It takes a long while for me to warm up to someone, they have to literally force themselves onto me for me to acknowledge them because I am usually too busy thinking of myself and my immediate loved ones (this is true for friends and boyfriends.) I am not fond of the courtship period because romance does nothing for me, I am a practical person.

I remember when a Virguy once wrote me a romantic poem, it was very well written (I was going to correct it with a red pen if it wasn't!) and I was sort of charmed by the idea of it, but mostly I felt like rolling my eyes. It didn't feel genuine because how can someone be struck by someone else so early in the getting to know you stage? I think a lot of guys (or maybe just Virguys) have a typical list of things to do when wooing a girl because it always felt hollow and disingenuine to me. I prefer the stage where you become comfortable with each other and each other's routine, when we can both let our hair down and be okay with being bored with each other. Unfortunately its hard to get to that stage without enduring the courtship phase, and it is during that phase that I lose interest in guys. Its a vicious cycle.
