Their word

Are Taurus usually good on their word?

I've run across a few Taurus that talk a good game but lack follow through.

What's y'all opinion?

My ex bro-in-law is a classic Taurus, talked a good game for shutting you up but he'd go back on his word more often than not. I don't trust them.

you can trust me to act in my own self interest all the time

We all do that

No lol

The Taurus I know has consistently followed through or will at least find a workaround. For instance, if we had a meetup to see a movie, but an important obligation came up that would cause him not to make the movie time he will push the time to later rather than a reschedule if both are possible in the same day. However, if he has to reschedule he picks out a specific date and time and place versus a vague open time frame. So if the movie was for at 2:00pm then he would arrive at 1:30pm. And he has never committed to anything he knows he can’t.

In fact, I thought our last encounter he’d flake out because he was undergoing some personal problems even though he was the one who asked me to go, but he never had a hint of flight. I believe if you are of importance to them they’ll rearrange their schedule/priorities for you.

unless they're a registered organ donor

I'm good with that - I won't agree to something I don't want to see through.

So, you'll agree to do something and just back out? Just like that?

I'd like to think I keep my word and if I don't I'd prefer you bring it up to me. Though that hasn't happened yet so I guess I've been a good sport?

Thank you for this.

no, I said I won't agree to something if I don't want to do in the first place

and/or

I will only agree to something I want to do and then will do it

I swear we've been through this before - you must be having trouble with a Taurus doing this still - give us examples ...

sounds like someone who just talks a lot of shit but doesn't really want to get involved

That's exactly me. If i consider you important or a good friend I'll never cancel and always find a way to work it out. I mean even if i gotta find someone and pay them to do what I said I would and can't do, it's getting done. But if I'm at all skeptical about you, then I'll change my mind at any time and just try to be polite about it.

Just making observations and asking questions is all.

I should be like hollyhock and just ask a question and deek out.

Nah, she just asks a question and reads the comments. She very rarely replies.

That's coz she's a Libra. When they don't have anything nice to say, they just keep quiet. It seems people on here with Leo energy thinks she's... not generous. But heck, the girl thinks the sky's about to fall. She got no time for niceties bruh.

Valid point.

Taureans will move heaven and earth to keep their word, if someone or something is important to them, though it may take them a while for them to get to that stage. A Taurus takes his/her promises seriously. That's my experience anyway.

Real Bulls

The follow through is lacking. Whether they mean it when they first say it or not. Could be. But it's action that counts.

Whether you want to chalk that up as lying, is up to you. I've found that it isn't usually meant to be a lie at the time it's said, but time will decide against it eventually.

The Taurus man I know is true to his word and to hell with everyone else. Feelings are non existent but I am sure they brood somewhere underneath all that arrogance.
