Apparently Taurus is a great match for Virgo, but I'm not so sure. My girlfriend (of three and a half months) is a Taurus and I find things very difficult with her. She's a lovely, sweet and gentle woman, and incredibly sexy with it - she sparkles like a lake of crystal clear water reflecting the moon and the stars in the middle of the night, and I just want to dive in and drown in her, but she is so reticent I just never know where I stand with her.

She doesn't talk about our relationship so I have no idea where she thinks it's going, where she might want it to go, if she thinks I'm just someone to have a bit of fun with or a potential life partner. She has a very busy life which I just have to fit into and I just feel that she isn't all that bothered about me. Meanwhile I feel that I'm falling for her, though I've had to try to cool my emotions recently as it was starting to hurt that she wasn't reciprocating.

Being with her physically feels great, but she is so uncommunicative that I have no idea if what I am doing is right or if she's satisfied. It feels nice but I need verbal confirmation. I think my Virgo shy and reserved side combined with her Taurus reticence leaves me feeling unfulfilled because I wonder if I've done anything good for her. As a person who love nothing more than to bring a woman to a state of ecstasy she leaves me feeling uneasy and like I'd rather not sleep with for fear that she secretly thinks I'm the only one that's getting something out of it.

I actually broke up with her just over a couple of weeks ago because I didn't think she cared, but then she started texting me telling me she does like me and she misses me, so I suggested that we give it another go which she has agreed to.

I know Taurus women like to take things slowly before they "decide" to fall in love with a man, but things are sooooo painfully slow here that it just feels like it will never happen. Am I wasting my time here or will there be a specific moment when it all just suddenly clicks and she opens up to me?

Being a Virgo I am a worrier who finds that the best cure for my anxiety is being kept informed, so I'm surprised that Taurus is regarded as such a good match for Virgo when Taurus is so guarded and secretive. I find it brings out the worst in me... but as I said, I find my gorgeous Taurus girlfriend so painfully irresistible that I can't bear to give up on the relationship, not just yet anyway.

I'd love to get some Taurus women's views

Do you know what both of your moons and venus and mars are?
what are your ages?


I don't know what our moons, venus and mars are. Can you tell me how to find out? Our ages are me: 35 (tomorrow) and her: 38.

.we don't like being vulnerable and hate the thought of rejection no matter how secure we may seem.


The irony in this is that if I reject her it will be because of the very reticence that she is maintaining out of fear of rejection.

Dude, u need to drop the shy act and act like an aries. Take that bull by her sexy horns and LEAD the relationship. She will follow !!!

Taureans are strong women. We need equally strong men. There's no room for indecisiveness. U gotta see what u want and TAKE it.

Fantastic advice. When I first met her I was very much like that. Very confident, just acted myself and didn't worry too much about the consequences, and things went fantastically well. She was as enthusiastic as me and the whole thing just felt wonderful. Then, after about seven weeks, I started to feel like I was falling for her and, fearful of losing her, I started to behave differently because I became conscious of the need not to upset her. Ironically, that when things started to get difficult between us and she retreated and I started to do things wrong all of the time. I need to be like I was in the first place, but manufacturing it is a whole lot more difficult than just being it!

Yeah I've been here completely with numerous Taurus guys to the point that I wanted to pull both my and their hair out. So uncommunicative and I never knew where I stood at all. I'm a Pisces with Virgo rising and Mercury in Aquarius, so I love to talk and get verbal affirmation about feelings. In the end I couldn't stand it anymore, it really affected my self esteem and made me feel very insecure in not just the relationship, but other areas of my life. I have never met anyone as uncommunicative as one of these Taurus guys in particular. Crazy.

This was the exact reason that I gave when I broke up with my Taurus GF just over a couple of weeks ago, that it was starting to affect my self-esteem. To be fair to her though, I didn't discuss my feelings with her as she wasn't showing her feelings to me, so I thought I might scare her off by getting all heavy. Maybe we're are bad as each other... Both holding back because of what we're worried the other might think! Going back to the first seven weeks that we were together, I was just being myself and acting instinctively - I didn't worry about anything, I just did what I felt and everything was amazing between us, so that's how I'm going to be with her now that we're giving it another go.

Yeah maybe I should do that too. I swear Taurus are the most difficult sign to figure out. I just wish they weren't so gorgeously lovely.....

So true. I read somewhere that Taurus woman's eyes "sparkle with wit and curiosity" and that is such a brilliant description. Her eyes really do sparkle and her whole face radiates light. Then there's her irresistible womanly curves and her choice of clothes... mainly simple black outfits but garnished with very glam looking scarves, boas and jewellery. She is truly fabulous and totally irresistible! I'm going to have to persevere with this woman!!

"When I first met her I was very much like that. Very confident, just acted myself and didn't worry too much about the consequences, and things went fantastically well."

I think you answered your question. Oddly, the way you described yourself is the way that a lot of women are once they start falling and/or get intimate with a man. Initially there is a lot of confidence and interplay within the relationship, and then once they start falling for the person the dynamics change and they get overly sensitive to "losing" that person or "doing something wrong." Interestingly, if people would just be themselves like they are at the onset of the relationship, BUT still continue to grow and open up with that person, I think it would make for much happier people.
As Madalena said, I like strong, confident men, because I am a strong women; however, I am still a woman, and I want to feel that sense of protection, etc that men provide to me in a relationship. I, personally, don't like overly sensitive men. With that being said, I, like you, (when I was younger) always wanted to know where the relationship was going, and I would put inordinate amount of time in worrying about that, and NOT being myself. Now that I am older, I am in a different place, so I am not like I was when I was younger. I think Bella may have it right that perhaps age may play a factor, but I don't know your age group, so that is hard to gauge.

My best advice is to be clear about what you want (future state) out of the relationship. In all honesty, you've only been dating for a few months, and for me, I don't fall for someone that easily or quickly. When I was w/my ex-Libra, he fell for me in one month, I fell for him after a year. There is a saying, "The quicker you fall in love; the quicker you fall out of love." I don't know if that's true for everyone, but I've seen this to play out and be true, more times than I care to remember. I've said this before, Taurus women love to love up their men. When they are in to you, there is NO room for you to wonder - you will know! Every aspect of your life will be enriched by her prescence.

I don't understand why you would change like that....



Simple, because I suddenly realised that I didn't want to lose this woman and started to check my every action to make sure nothing I did would upset her. Ironically that's when I started to upset her! The good news is that I met her for an hour and a half today and we have coffee and chatted and afterwards I felt like a cloud had been lifted from me, like the chemistry was back. I think we're getting back on track!

go here to do birth charts to find out moon's and venus and mars.

http://astro.cafeastrology.com/cgi-bin/astro/natal


Okay, I don't know what time either of us were born and all I know of her birth location is that it was in Scotland, so I put Edinburgh just for the purpose of getting a result. I don't know how much that may have compromised the outcome. Here are the results...

Me:
DOB: 20 September 1974
Venus: Virgo
Mars: Libra
Moon: Scorpio

Her:
DOB: 26 April 1971
Venus: Aries
Mars: Capricorn
Moon: Taurus

Aww sweet. She has my birthdate 🙂
Yeah, she's really Taurus then; but she probably has a lot of masculinity (not in a manly way) about herself, because her Venus is in Aries (as is mine). If she is anything like me, she definitely appreciates you being YOU and not pussyfooting around anything. Truthfulness/honesty is like THE thing for Taurus in general - we may be slightly masochistic, because we always want to know whether it's good or bad. She probably likes to be pampered and worshipped, but not in a creepy way, but in a genuine loving way 🙂

That's good to know. Will just relax and be myself then. That's how I was for the first weeks when everything was at its best!

It seems she took it as rejection. Taurus likes consistancy, stability and we are more frazzled by change than most. She could of very well took your actions the wrong way. We are VERY responsive and sensitive to those we care about, we really like to meet our partners needs. Maybe she thought you wanted space? So she backed off. I also see she has a Taurus moon. The Moon rules our emotions, therefore hers are going to very Bull-like - needs security and continuity. And since love and emotions go hand in hand, well. I think you see what I'm getting at 🙂 And you have a Scorpio moon, oh my. Very intense feelings, no? 😛 Your moon signs are opposites. Now, that could go either way. Unfortunately you will never understand each others emotional state, but that doesn't mean there would be no attraction, could be quite the opposite (MUCH attraction), but it may prove to be somewhat difficult at times. Your feelings run deep and hers will be much down-to-earth and practical. She also has Venus in Aries. No matter the Sun sign, this suggests they prefer to take the lead in love (although nothing suggests that this is the case, to my knowledge) - like excitement and need passion in a relationship. That could be why she might of backed off as well, she saw things had changed and was disappointed, or wanted to save herself from possible heartbreak. The reason she is so guarded and protective of herself is for the purpose of protecting her feelings. We are very strong, tough chicks. But inside we're pretty dang soft and gentle, and it's hard for us to talk about our feelings sometimes. Now even with my Aries moon, I am very direct with my feelings and never play false, however, it is still hard for me to really talk about how I feel most of the time. It's kind of sad.. but alot of these posts I see in these forums revolve around getting the Taurus (mostly males) to talk about how they feel, and not be so.. emotionless. I have been guilty of not being entirely talkative about my feelings. If your Taurus girlfriend wanted to get back with you after you two broke up, I would take that as a definite sign she's into you (or still into you) We won't waste anyones time, especially not ours. We are REAL women. So, if you want her, go for her! And give 110% , and I'm sure she will reciprocate your feelings and open up to you once she feels secure again. btw, I really liked your description of your gf, I thought it was really wonderful 🙂

this is never going to be a boring,stable relationship no matter how badly you may want that.you will always have misunderstandings.lace up your boots and just be you is all I can say.
good luck 🙂

Better brace myself then - I'm normally a big fan of "boring" stable relationships. I like peace, harmony and tranquillity, so I guess this is going to be a departure for me! I now what you mean on the "misunderstandings", we've already had some. Just need to find a way of getting her back on side quicker when they happen - she can hold a grudge for a stupidly long time over the tiniest of things! Will definitely just be me. That worked brilliantly when we first met and I had her eating out of my hand. It's my 35th birthday today so I'm treating this as the opportunity for a fresh start to be confident and spontaneous, less questioning and more instinctive.

here's a secret: we forgive pretty easily if there is no cheating or lying involved...but we may let you think we are mad for longer than we really are....because we like you trying to make it up to us 🙂it makes us feel loved.


I thought there was something like that going on, ha ha! She does seem to stop being mad but continues telling me I'm not off the hook! Definitely no lying or cheating, I'm a 100% one-woman man!

Posted by BellaBulleautiful

I'm sure with the way you changed though,to accomodate her,it made her wonder if you are a phony.we DON'T like change,it scares us and we don't trust it.



Yeah, I did it for the right reason, but it was the wrong thing. I can totally see what you mean.

Posted by BellaBulleautiful

I think you said her venus is in Aries as is mine....so I want to mention we are very playful women,with everyone but especially with our man.so you must be able to loosen up and take a joke and act silly and young.if not,we will get bored.that's where we get our variety and keep things fresh rather than man hopping like some other signs.we want to just keep what we have and keep it fun and fresh. 😛



She is playful, as am I when I loosen up, something which I will have to learn to do more! I do take myself too seriously and have trouble taking a joke, especially when the joke is on me, so I guess that's where I need to learn. She does make me feel much more relaxed than anyone else I've ever met and I'm surprised at some of the things that I just brush off which would previously have really irritated me. I like the idea that she's not a man-hopper and wants to keep it fun and fresh by having one man but keeping it young with him. That suits me perfectly.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY VIRGOM20!!
Enjoy your day! It's special JUST FOR YOU! I love that you are on the board trying to figure out ways to please your lady love, but above and beyond everything else; make sure you are pleasing YOU! If you are happy, well adjusted, loving and secure - in turn, your relationship SHOULD be that way too (with some work).

Women, in general, are more complicated than men - BUT, Taurus women (in my VERY biased opinion) are very loving, and caring people. If we love you, you don't have to worry about a bunch of needless games etc. Generally speaking, Taurus women are true to that and would never want to hurt anybody. We tend to be extremely intuitive and are true to the expression, "do unto others as you would have them do unto you."

Bella had it on another board (paraphrasing) "make love to us; feed us; massage us; tuck us in - clean and repeat the process." It's true. Oh, and pretty much in that order 🙂 (well, for me 😉)!

I guess that's my Virgo thoroughness manifesting itself... carrying out research to make sure I do the best job that I can as a BF! Like you say, I should make sure I'm pleasing me. While she is fairly reticent one thing she has said is that I should focus on making my own life happy for me and then I will be the kind of complete, independent individual that she can respect as a whole person.

While I don't know her *that* well yet I would say that, reading between the lines, this is exactly how she is. She has told me to just tell it how it is and ask her if there's anything I want to know. No games, no nonsense, just straight talking and transparent behaviour. Suits me!

I love to look after a woman but also give her the space to remain independent so that I can continue to admire her as a strong individual, so if the above really is the case then she'll be perfect for me!

Then you should be all good; besides the general "relationship" things that sometimes bog us down! I do sincerely wish you the best of luck. There aren't too many men on this board that I've come across who appear to genuinely LOVE women and are looking to make their relationships better and more fulfilling, without a lot of BS. It gives me a small amount of hope for people, and one of these days when I am ready to throw myself back into the "real relationship ring" again (which is highly doubtful - lol, I'm having fun just frolicking) maybe I'll find a gentleman whom I can spoil and he can return the favor!

I have to say I love this woman, but things are going sooooo slowly.

Maybe it's just me being impatient and anxious, but we seem to be in a Catch 22. My GF has a young girl from a previous long-term relationship and understandably she doesn't want to introduce me to her daughter until she feels that the relationship is looking permanent. Because of this we can only see each other once a week, which means it feels like it's going to take an eternity for our relationship to progress to the point where I can meet the daughter. The lack of progress is the cause of the lack of progress, so to speak!

I want the whole package with my GF but waiting is so frustrating. I guess there will come a point when she realizes that I'm a reliable person and will be a good partner for a serious relationship, but in the meantime her "Taurus slowness" and my "Virgo impatience" is making life very difficult for me!

Oops, forgot, you're a Virgo. Worrying IS you.


Exactly! I've done a lot of reading-up on the Virgo+Taurus combination and from what I can gather it seems to be the type of partnership that works brilliantly once it's at the point of a "permanent" relationship having been established, but struggles until that point because Virgo, with his impatience and anxiety, and Taurus, with her slow and steady way of moving, can antagonize one another.

I think what I'm going to have to do is set myself some type of exciting target/goal in another area of my life that I have complete control of, and can dictate the pace of, and focus on that. I'll enjoy the time I get to spend with my girlfriend but make sure I have plenty more in my life. I think right now she is dominating my thoughts too much. The more I am achieving for myself as an individual the less I'll worry about my relationship and the more she'll respect me as a whole and independent individual and then maybe want more of me.

"Maybe she thought you wanted space? So she backed off"

Perhaps so. I'm really not a fan of "space" though. I like relationships to be very full-on. Many years ago I was dumped by a Taurus who thought I was too intense! She seemed evey cool and aloof though. The next GF I has was also a Taurus and she was the opposite - totally full-on. Told me she loved me after two weeks and wanted an engagement ring after five months! I was too young for that back then but now I'd revel in such adoration and be straight off to the jewellers!!


"as a bull, i would say she must have really strong feelings for you and her reticence is her way of protecting herself in case you are not being REAL. you pulling the plu and backing off is WRONG MOVE, hun. i'd say, there is now a QUESTION MARK at the back of her head as far trust and sincerity on your part is concerned. she will still accept you and be nice, sweet and all that but there's definitely doubt on how sincere you are in the relationship."

I do hope she has strong feelings for me as I certainly have them for her, in fact I've stated to get that sick feeling in my stomach over the last week. I am usually such a consistent person, so she has nothing to work about. It'll just take time for me to prove that to her. Ironically my shaky behaviour earlier on had been because I thought she wasn't bothered about me so I backed-off because I could tell that I was falling for her and didn't want to get my heart broken.


"and to BELLA:

feed us, rub us, screw us, tuck us in--- i prefer to have mine in that order 🙂 RINSE AND REPEAT for as long as we both can last LOL!

heck what's with bulls and massages—!"

Tell me more! Any inside info as to how to make her feel great would be welcome. And what's this neck thing I hear about Taureans?

>>> oh yes yes yes... do us in the neck and you'll go places!

dunno about the other taurus gals out there but i get really turned on being kissed on the neck... a gentle massage on that area and down to the shoulders will surely make her knees weak.



Good stuff! I've read in a few places about Taureans having a whole neck thing going on - ie, sensitive to sore throats, etc., but it also being an erogenous zone, so I'll have to pay her extra attention there. Being a Virgo and therefore loving to look after other people more than myself there's nothing I enjoy more than having my woman purring with ecstasy, so I'll definitely try that next time I have chance.

Posted by bluelilac

i'd say why don't you take her out on a spa retreat- she'll love it and love you too bits for coming up with such a date idea.

I'd love to do such a thing though getting away with her is difficult because of her young daughter. She hasn't introduced em to her friends and family yet but at least when she does it will be easy to arrange childcare for any surprise trips away that I might want to arrange for her. In the meantime I'll just have to stick to what attention I can give her at home when I spend a night with her.

Another thing that's been bugging me??_

In nearly four months not only has she not introduced me to her daughter (which is fair enough) but I also haven't met any of her friends or family. This seems slightly strange to me, like she's trying to keep me out of her life and in a totally separate dimension. I feel as though she has labelled me —enemy?? and doesn't want to let me in. I can understand someone wanting to take things slowly so they can get to know someone and minimize the risk of getting hurt, but this seems like overkill to me, and I find this —keeping me at arms length?? somewhat hurtful, like I'm being labelled —guilty?? before I??ve committed any crime.

As I??ve said before in this thread, the very behaviour that she's employing in order to protect herself is the very thing that could cause the fate that she's trying to protect herself from, because I??ll eventually become worn down and easy prey for someone who??s more aggressive and takes a warmer, more open-armed approach. I wouldn't like that to happen but where do you draw the line? How can you distinguish between something that's taking a long time to get somewhere and something that's simply going nowhere?

Okay, whoever said Virgo and Taurus are a "match made in heaven" needs to be shot... or is it just me and her?

Last Saturday I spent a couple of hours with her in the afternoon. Very pleasant. When we said goodbye I asked when I could next see her, and she said Friday evening (tonight), if she could get a babysitter. I said I'd love to see her Friday and asked her to let me know.

Sunday she texted me and said we were on for Friday, so I said great.

Today at lunchtime I e-mailed her to make our specific arrangements for seeing each other, and she said she thought I didn't want to go out because I'd not mentioned it all week. I pointed out that I'd indicated both on Saturday and Sunday that I wanted to see her Friday, but she brushed that off.

She said she'd still see me but that she "wasn't happy", thus indicating that she'd be in another of her sulks and that I, yet again, would be on probation for as long as it would take me to win her over... again!

I told her I'd rather leave it until she was happy, so we're not seeing each other tonight.

Frankly I've had enough. Somewhere in among all of this I have to hang on to my identity and my self respect and I can't seem to have these things when I'm with her because I'm too busy trying to keep myself in check to avoid annoying her. Given that I can't do anything right when I'm trying I will, from now on, just act how I want and if it offends her, then tough. I am one of the most loving, giving, attentive, romantic and passionate guys anyone could ever with for. All I want is to be with a woman who has the capacity to receive all that I have to give and to appreciate it. Is this too much to ask?

I've been reading all of these posts and you seem like an absolutely lovely, sensitive, wonderful guy. A taurus treated me just the same way and I ended up feeling completely worthless. He acted as though he was more important than me and that it was my job to curtail to his requirements. A relationship needs to be about meeting someone half way. None of us know this woman, but before you get in too deep, I would weigh whether you could not find someone else who loves you the way that you want to be loved. You seem absolutely gorgeous and any woman would be lucky to have someone as accommodating as you. Don't change, but don't be a pushover either. X

Oh VirgoM20 I feel your frustration! Usually I glance at some of the replies purely for entertainment purposes but your post have really grabbed my attention, and I must agree with Bella and tiffanyrose, she doesn't seem to be interested. However, the way she has been (as tiffanyrose stated) taking you for granted really bothers me, and quite frankly you need to get this horrible person out of your life ASAP, because it seem like she has some sort of mental illness...I don't now of many taurus women (myself included) who would just change plans or god forbid sulk. If for whatever reason there is drama in my life I don't sulk I meet it head on and try and work out the kinks in the situation (whatever that maybe). Also, just because of this person you mustn't write of all taurus ppl because let me tell you (as a female taurus through and through) every virgo that I have met (male or female) has in one shape or form touch my heart. You really are a fabulous group of people, and in my opinion the world can never have too many virgos. The connection between these two signs is something to behold, and that's from personal experience not some silly book. Mentally, emotionally, physically, spiritually....it's like being hit by an earthquake and that's saying alot coming form a usually stable, quite and composed bullette such as myself. How do I know you ask? because I have been bless to have a virgo of my own (sorry can't help with the possessive bit, but I am a taurus!) and he is phenomenal! and I wouldn't want another, just him is all I need. He is a kind, charming, caring, responsible, and loving soul and the first man to have won over my affections by lecturing me on the benefits of having a veggie juicer. Had anyone else given such unsolicited advice I would have given them a piece of my mind but with my virgo's it's different....and it's one of the facets of a virgos personality I find most endearing...as well as their beautifully bright minds. Also I can say with certainty that even if him and I were to ever "part ways" we will always have this unexplainably deep bond, whereby if I every got word that some witch was treating him ill she would have a raging bull on her hands!!!

Well, my final e-mail to her on Friday told her to let me know when she's in the right frame of mind to have a proper relationship with me.

I got a load more abuse back telling me I don't know how to treat a woman (the flowers, champagne, chocolate, taking her out for meals, paying for everything and driving everywhere to take her out or meet her at her convenience was bad treatment then, I guess) and also telling me to be a man, whatever that means. I haven't heard from her since then so I guess she isn't in the right frame of mind to have a proper relationship.

I want to be convinced on this whole Virgo+Taurus thing, but so far it isn't happening. Prior to her there were, at various times, three other Taurus women in my life. Two were so aloof I simply couldn't deal with them and one has such a bad temper she would go crazy at the slightest of things and then become violet towards me!

Well, I doubt I'm ever going to stop having feelings for someone who I spent 8.5 happy years with, and it makes a pleasant change to be able to reflect positively on an ex when so many people seem to be full of bitterness towards former partners. Nothing wrong with feeling that Leo woman are fabulous, because they are. As far as the Taurus woman is concerned, I was ready to devote myself to her but her behavior has made doing so impossible. Regarding my Scorp colleague... well, I'm single so what the hell is wrong with a bit of harmless flirting and as my Taurus (now ex) GF has made her feelings (or lack thereof) so acutely clear to me, what's wrong with looking at other options?

Okay...

I was probably a bit loose with my words saying that I would get back with my Leo ex in a blink if I could. I hold her in very fond regard but I was probably reminiscing through rose-tinted spectacles with the purpose of illustrating how much I like Leo women. There are three Leo woman at my work and I get on really well with them all and they seem to like me - they all seems to possess that same Leo fabulousness that I loved so much in my ex.

With the Taurus woman, aside from her meanness, it wasn't so much that she said anything as she didn't say or do anything. If she were into me I might have had more of an indication as to how she felt, but the complete absence of any indication suggested to me that there was a complete absence of any feelings on her part and her game playing suggested that, for her, it was more about having a puppet than a partner.

Regarding the Scorp... I was talking about a bit of fun with someone in the office, that's all. She already flirts with me all of the time anyway.

Awww, the bulls lose a virgo. Well that's what she gets for being such an ass..

This is scary because I recently met a taurus chic and she just seemed so.. *makes face* ..cold. COLD.

I don't often run into other bulls but it made me wonder if I ever come across that way ..?! Yikes.
I sure would hope not but I don't doubt it that much being as I tend to be very serious with
strangers.. but with this chic, it was hard to believe that she was any different.. ever. Brrrrrr


As for the Scorpionnn gals.. 8/10 are unashamed liars and incurable cheaters.
And I say 8/10 to be nice. And excuse my EXAGGERATION!
BUT !OMG! can it be DRAMA

How rude I was cut off just as I was about to take that last bit back hahaha
That's personal experience btw.. 2/3 😛

I would also like to point out that one of them borderline sexually harassed me...
she sooooo came on to me. But I have to say that out of the three she was the good one.
Had a big heart which I could appreciate even though no one else seemed to like her.

The other one was super sneaky, incredible liar, and a hugeeee cheat. Oh but that chic
was HILARIOUS! Loads of fun. I miss her. She totally harassed me.

The third one is.... just all bad.

The whole flirting at work deal just sounds bad. They're just sooo horny.

I have noticed this with Taurus women... cold, aloof, distant, reticent, emotionally unavailable, non-committal and took everything sooooo slowly that you feared you would be overtaken by continental drift! I've had relationships with four of them and three came across that way. The other was the opposite. Crazily possessive, wore her heart on her sleeve, was a total drama queen and would always lose her temper.

The last one probably had her moon in Leo (I don't hate moon in Leo, I have that placement too)....

a lil tip though....if we are not interested in you.....we are NOT going to give you the impression we are.sorry..... *smh*


I appreciate that type of honesty from a person, but the woman who is the subject of this thread said to me that if she didn't like me then she wouldn't have continued her relationship with me, but then she didn't act like she was remotely bothered about me. It's as though she told me just enough to keep me hanging on in case she might want me at some point, but wasn't willing to "walk the talk" the rest of the time.

if i were that bull, i'd be super glad i'd given him the cold shoulder, considering dude is running round, half of him still with a leo and the other half with a scorp 😉


That's a tad unfair. I devoted my heart and sole to that Bull and even came on this site to try to work out how best to deal with her to make the relationship a success. As for having feelings for my Leo ex??_ we were together for 8.5 years, I??ll probably always have some feeling for her. What should I do then, stay single for the rest of my life? And running around with others? A bit of harmless flirting in the office as a single person is hardly the crime of the century, is it? It's exactly this type of unreasonableness that's making me question they whole Virgo+Taurus suitability. The bottom line is, if Miss Bull had not made me feel so unwelcome in her life when I was doing everything I could to win her over then I wouldn't be thinking about anyone else. As it is she has made it perfectly clear that she doesn't care, so what should I do other than get on with my life?

we may be pretty, but we aint dumb 🙂

Very pretty, yes... but also so reticent as to appear dumb. 😉

Of course, when arguing with a Bull you have to remember, you??re allowed one opinion??_ THEIRS! So I won't waste any more time trying to reason with people who??s only reason for being in an argument is their love of arguments.

Okay, there's been a small development...

While driving home yesterday —Bullet-Proof?? by La Roux came on the radio. When I got home I decided to pinch a line from the song —This time baby I??ll be bullet-proof?? and use it as my status on Facebook, as a humorous reference to the fact that I won't be getting emotionally involved with the next woman I meet until I know I can trust her??_

Later in the evening, Taurus ex, who I last spoke to on October 2 (but is still in my Facebook friends) commented on my status, saying "you are already bullet proof, as you are that thick skinned lol!!!!!!!!!!"

The irony in this is unbelievable! Firstly, she hates sarcasm but is clearly being sarcastic in making this comment. Secondly, if I were thick-skinned I might have been able to brush off her hurtful behavior and stay with her.

I??d like to respond to the comment but I don't want to say something antagonistic, or rise to her clear desire for a confrontation. I have no hard feelings towards her, just disappointment that it didn't work out and that I couldn't get back to the soft and warm side of her that was so easily accessible for the first few weeks of our relationship, so what I??d like to do is say something really sweet to diffuse her anger and perhaps melt her cold heart a little. Any ideas what?

Dear VirgoM20, first of all I send u a hug because (and I'm smiling while typing this) you've really won my respect and admiration in terms of the extent at how far your trying to "make it work" with this taurus of yours, yet I think you don't really understand her, that being said (and after reading over your post on her planet placements) let me say this:
1. she's a "double taurus" meaning that she'd a taurus with her decan/subruler as taurus, therefore she is twice as intense, passionate, and stong-willed [not stubborn 😉 ], than the other two decans
2. Her moon is in Taurus, and the moon sign is an indication of how we process our emotions, therefore you could say that the qualities you'd see in a taurus woman are manifested in her three times as much! (please tell me this is what you really want and are able to handle, because she will really give you "a run for your money"... in a good way)
Now in conclusion....with all that taurus in her charts she can be extremely vindictive and willfull, if she feels or even thinks her feelings are trifled with! (hence her mean comment), also once you've hurt her (i.e: cut communication with her and then resume) she becomes mistrustful of you, and she will ALWAYS think that way of you..maybe not so if she had other planets other than taurus in her chart but unfortunately (as I stated above) she's got taurus written all over her! so regardless of how many sweet phrases you say to her..she will still be mistrustful of your intentions...I would either ignore her comment or (if you still want her in your life) ask her if she would meet with you because you have something you need to say, at which point (make sure your both comfortably seated) in a calm even but firm tone explain to her how her lack of communication makes you feel ignored, unappreciated and hurt, voice your concerns!...make sure she's listening (because yes we can be that thick skulled) and let her know that if she still cares for you she better get her act together, and proceed from there.... if she still continues to act up, cut your loses and leave!....to lose your heart in a relationship is understandable but DEFINITELY not your self-repect! Also if you don't let her know how her actions hurt you as to cause the drift between both of you, there will be a build up of resentment from both parties..you (because you couldn't take her coldness anymore and her previous actions have left you hurt) and her (because she thinks your emtionally insincere)

Okay, now she's telling me what to write on my Facebook page. I just got this message from, her...

"You obvioulsy want and, are looking for another girlfriend, but before you add them to your fb, I think you should clear the darkness and, some of your recent comments up, as if I saw them on someone's fb, I would think erm and, it would put me off!!!!"

Why does she care enough to start imparting advice as to how I might best succeed with the next girl?

P.S. There's nothing particularly dark on my FB.

From my understanding of the situation with VirgoM20, I wouldnt really call the TaurusLady a girflriend. From my reading (and please correct me if I'm wrong VM20), they went out on a couple of dates, and VirgoM20 was interested in taking it further but TaurusLady started pulling away, becoming distant. So, while this is happening, he glances at an AquaGal and comes on here asking for some insight and advise, the same with ScorpGal, a colleague in the office. From my perspective, isnt this exactly what these boards are all about? Getting to appreciate and understand the workings of one another?

With Taurus, I've also found my girlfriend to a total drama queen when it comes to life. Everything is over the top - life and death - both with work, friends and boys. As much as I love her, she is quite selfish and wants everything her way, when we go away on weekends together, which are supposed to be relaxing and having fun together. But, she has to have the best room, etc., and wont compromise, or share. I find her the same when we go out together to bars. If a man (or men) is/are flirting with her, he/they must pay for all her drinks, she wont buy one, or even offer, and she is all about their bank balance. I will always offer to buy a round when we are out, as I feel it is right to expect a gentleman I've only just met, to buy all my drinks. On a dinner/drinks date, that is different as I'd like feel feminine and womanly, and prefer the man to pay, but on some dates, I've actually slipped money into his pocket, so we could just relax together and not have to worry about the costs for the night. Sorry - I think I went a little off topic then (oops!)

Delisha,

Here's what happened...

We met on a Saturday afternoon at the start of June and had coffees.
I was then very busy so we didn't meet again for a couple of weeks and, ironically, I wasn't that bothered about her at that point.
After our second meet I really warmed to her and we started seeing each other a couple of times a week.
By mid-July I was staying at hers a couple of nights a week and we had become very close.
Then we had a fall-out over something I wrote while we were chatting online which she misunderstood.
Since then I struggled to get back into her good books because, fearful of losing her, I stopped being "me" and started checking everything I said and did.
This change in me was noticeable to her - she preferred the original me, but being "me" was so much harder when I was trying to!
She broke up with me and then changed her mind and we got back together.
Then I broke up with her but we got back together after she kept texting and e-maling saying that she missed me.
Most recently, start of October, I broke-up with her once more and then silence until she wrote on my FB page and messaged me, as per my recent posts.
We have exchanged a number of messages this evening.

The Aqua was a couple of dates but she was too vague for me.
The Scorp is just a female colleague who I'm friendly with. She flirts with me for fun so I thought I'd do it back a bit. She's in a relationship so it's not going to go anywhere - I have no intention of it going anywhere. It's just a bit of fun which, hopefully, will help me to build my confidence with women.

Bella,

She has a Taurus moon. See below...

1. she's a "double taurus" meaning that she'd a taurus with her decan/subruler as taurus, therefore she is twice as intense, passionate, and stong-willed [not stubborn 😉 ], than the other two decans

I think bella was referring to Delisha's "drama queen" friend having their moon in leo, not your ex taurus VirgoM20.....never the less it's nice to know that you read my post 🙂 ...which for some reason I thought you wouldn't because of the length....and as for Delisha I agree with bella...I can never seem to understand where u guys are meeting these taurus women you talk about on this forum. The ones I know (myself) included are nowhere near any of the ones described here....but then again we're all different.
