if you don't believe me go to the relationships board and say "guys, will accepting fwb eventually get me a relationship?" and see how the men respond to that. ijs.

How funny... It sounds like something a Leo guy would do.
Another fixed/proud/stubborn sign. It could be that he has Leo placements and that brought them together in the first place. Or maybe its my 3 Leo placements speaking...lol. I am just putting it out there, tapping into some of the ways I would've behaved when I was younger and more insecure.click to expand

Umm what?? That was a complete oxymoron lol. How is it getting serious if we were both dating other people? I took that as his pride not letting him admit that he couldn't handle/didn't like me dating other guys. I told him all the best but then rekindled things a few weeks later. So I think what he's saying now is pretty similar to what he said months ago except the fwb thing which threw me for a loop.

I could see it being your Leo placements. lol

@jebrooks1988. If there was anything you were not sure about you should have askeD. Besides, the Leos I know seem to love having their ego stroked and prefer short flings not serious relationship and taurus ultimately prefers a serious relationship. I suggest you take your flirtations to another fire sign like a sag or Aries and leave him be.
I'm actually very into relationships... I just got out of a 4 year one back in October. Do I flirt? Sure but I'm very committed to my partner ONCE I know where he stands. This honestly scares the sugar honey iced tea out of me lol because he's so guarded which makes me guarded.click to expand

a taurus expects to be the only one. we want to be the center of your universe. we don't like to share. what you did was literally the worst possible thing you could have done. the only thing worse would be blowing some guy in front of him.
we are extremely possessive. like lunatic possessive. and if you try to make us jealous we will just cut you off and not think of you as relationship material ever again.
if you had done to me what you did to him i would never speak to you again. and i am someone who always tries to be friends.

No I agree, there's always exceptions but I don't think I can set myself up for that. It's tempting but extremely risky.click to expand

That's the real issue isn't it? With a Taurus, you will question that stance often, but they are exceedingly loyal. Yes, he's guarded, because he wants to know he can trust you with all of his secrets. They are the slowest moving sign, but they are honestly the sexiest because of it (Taurean ladies, why can't I stop falling for you!? 😛). The best course with him is to not flirt, even if it's in your nature. Also, as much as it pains me to say this, because I'm in relationship limbo with a Taurus, he may not be the one for you.
I'm not saying you're not without fault, but I understand your position a little better now. You won't be able to force affections back into it, because either he still likes you or he doesn't. Either way, you just have to prove that you're trustworthy to him, and if it is supposed to work out, it will.click to expand

Well he told me on the phone when he said he didn't want to hurt me, fwb, etc "I mean I like you...." Plus it was only a week before when he wanted to knock the guy out lolclick to expand

oh. he's a dragon. they're insufferable drama queens. that changes a lot.
Posted by scorchedearth
dealing with a dragon in a relationship is you + him + his ego = your relationship.

Yep. She did.
I've played games before too. Usually on Leo or Pisces guys that start it first. I'm usually fully aware that they are going on, automatically friend-zone them in my heart & soul and then play along just for kicks.
None of those ended up being serious relationships. 😐click to expand

Of course, you are a proud Scorp...hahaha. This one is more dignified, but it may have less chance of success. First one I gave is best chance of success IMO. With this one, you are almost giving an ultimatum and the stubbornness and anger may still be way too strong for him to accept it. With time, openness/better communication, and physical proximity and touch, deep wounds can be healed. The way to the bulls heart is slow and sensual...lol. She can just be like "I want to see you" and make that work. She doesn't have to sign an FWB contract. She can just leverage his statement to that effect, to get in his presence.
Not so much for my own dignity but for that of our relationship. I take games for being just that - games. Relationships I take seriously.
Maybe I will dismiss some games (not hurtful) if we have a well established friendship. I soften up with friends. But some random guy that wants to start a relationship with me? No way. I don't care to lose him. Don't care that much.
Lol on him being born May 14th out of all days... Hahahahahaha
Sorry... Just realized you were talking about aftermath of what to do. I wouldn't have flirted with another man to begin with. So... Can't relate there. I'm social, I talk to everyone... But I won't disrespect.
But this Taurus seems to be all over the place. Why say "let's both do our own thing" and start off the whole thing as a big game. Immature if you ask me. He brought it upon himself to be upset and stubborn...
I thought Taurus like to be in peace... Not drama.

I'd still be straight up with him... Even with all the new information.
However, TLS probably had the approach that will end up working. Lol
My bull is Cancer dominant with an Aries moon. A lot of difference since yours is a double Taurus and has a lot of air going on in his chart.
+1 wow... And his has a lot of land and air in his chart 😐
OP - you can't let go either, can you?click to expand

once a Taurus has made his/her mind, that's it. Game
Well he kind of changed his mind months ago. In the beginning, after finding out/me telling him I was talking/dating to multiple guys he said
"I just don't want to lead you on I don't see this going anywhere if we're both dating other people, I was cool with just hanging out I didn't want things to get serious"
