I'm afraid to be your friends now. This is the second Taurus I've befriended who has just, for no apparent reason, flipped and disowned me. The first one was my BEST friend, we worked together, hung out all the time, had plans for the next 2 weeks, and one day at work she refused to answer me and then just all together stopped being my friend/responding/talking to me. Never gave me a reason of any sort. The second one I hadn't seen in a month, but because my Virguy got in an argument with him (which I was in no way involved with, wasn't even there) he disowned me as well. And when I tried to get an explanation it was "I'm cutting people out of my life, and you're one of them. It shouldn't matter anyway we weren't that close." (which is weird because I thought he was in my inner circle) He is an emotional basket case and said that I'm too unstable emotionally for him (I barely talked to him about that...? Like one time a year ago) and then finally after some discussion said that I sided with my Virguy on this argument, and that makes me a bad person.. (again, wasn't involved, wasn't there etc).

Are all Taurus going to just suddenly disown me? I truly love my friends and this HURTS!

The person I once called my best friend is too clingy. If you don't give her attention when she wants it, she will delete you from her Facebook and her phone. Try talking to her about something you want to get off your chest, she'll make a joke out of it. She interrupts constantly. When she started dating somebody, she seemingly ran out of things to talk about because he is all she talks about. She even wanted us to go with her to celebrate how she isn't single anymore. I haven't cut her off but am hesitant to answer her texts because her behavior makes me feel exhausted, so I tend to answer once in a blue moon.

Regarding the dude, he probably thinks that since your boyfriend doesn't like his face, the environment would be toxic and we would rather not be involved. He may be wary thinking that because of their issue, your boyfriend will probably start accusing him of things that are not his intention. It couod also be that he might have been interested in something more than a friendship and has decided to remove himself from the equation since he can't have that, which also tends to leave many Tauruses being pissy little bitches to the women they like. Sadly, I am the proverbial voice of experience, but I think I'm improving while trying to abandon this and only fly into a rage when it can be justified.

I am guilty of this but for many different reasons. I had to leave one friend because she was emotionally draining. She was sooo conceited. She talked to me about how everyone was jealous of her quality of work, her looks, her ethnicity and everyone wanted to be her. She was just so self absorbed.

Other friends I may have left because I didn't like the way they treated me or I saw a trait in them that I didn't want around me(e.g. jealousy, envy, gossipers, naysayers or anyone who may fall into a frenemy category.) I also dump an acquaintance because she was still friends with someone crazy that I no longer wanted anything to do with so to cut her completely out of my life I had to cut off mutual friends that were closer to her.

I think you might be able to salvage the relationship with 2nd Taurus friend. Corner him in a public place and start to explain to him how much his friendship means to you. He might not buy it because you're still dating your boyfriend but should you two ever break up he might come around.

They think the whole world as egocentric, but Taureans only think about themselves and how the ''other'' are bad.
Nobody is all the time: controlled, cheerful, happy, smiling, strong.
They say they do not like fake people, it does not seem true.

People (real) feel, change and appreciate when they are understood.
The true is: taurus people like robots.



So what you are saying is that you are a Cancer?

>>>Its hard to relate to this. I consider myself a good judge of character, it takes me a LONG time to really let someone in, and then once I've decided they are trustworthy, I am pretty much there for them for life, in any capacity - emotional support, financially, spending time, etc. If someone's overly needy, pushy, self-centered, annoying, untrustworthy, etc., I can usually sniff that out way before I let them in. So basically, I don't take on risky relationships and thus rarely have ever cut off a friend because of some unexpected behavior. But people do grow and change, people have moved away, grown distant due to other circumstances, etc. I kinda am just ok with it; there always seems to be someone else to fill the void.

Anyway - this may sound arrogant but if someone decides they just don't want to be my friend anymore for some random unclear reason, that might bother me for like a day. I think I'd mostly be disappointed in my own poor judgment of character. I would *definitely* consider it their loss, as I tend to be more of the giver in almost every relationship I have (except for maybe romantic partnerships, lol). So I understand you're feeling hurt, but basically what I'm trying to say is, unless you're the real problem and you're just not self-aware enough at this point to realize it, these don't sound like quality people, so you should be glad to have them out of your life. The male especially sounds really dogmatic, proud, and ignorant.

I am.



Well, you're young yet and its a little early to judge a zodiac sign based on what? One failed relationship with another super young person? A lot of young bulls can treat their girlfriends like crap. We love em but often take them for granted, have a really strong sense of entitlement, and treat them like a possession. My first love was a Cancer (as were the next two) and I did this for sure. My Cancer was overly nurturing to the point of becoming a kind of second mother, and enabling all of my lazy/spoiled tendencies. That's really bad for bulls; we kinda need a strong woman to set good boundaries. After we go through extreme pain from failed relationships, we change.

I've had really bad experiences with Cancer females. I've found them to be unfaithful (unless you are their first love), very clingy, the *most* manipulative people of all my experiences with the signs, very self-centered, and emotionally immature. Worst of all - unforgiving. I maintain a close relationship with my ex-wife who is a Cancer. She's funny, she's emotionally supportive and she's definitely a good person inside, but wow, she is really a whiny baby at heart, and I'm glad we are not together romantically. The whole world revolves around the Cancer's emotions. If they feel hurt by you, which is inevitable, and you don't take full ownership of the craziness they are accusing you of, you must be cruel and indifferent. Everything revolves around their agenda for career, family, etc. If they don't get what they want? Here come the tears. I dunno...I just kinda thought people stopped crying to get their way by age 7 or 8. And I don't meant to take digs at you either. Do your thing. It really seems to work for you guys. I've seen my ex-wife get promotions at work from crying. And she sure as hell got a lot out of me.

I just don't know how a Cancer woman has a successful relationship with a life-long partner (which they all claim to desire). You guys get hurt so deeply, and you just can't seem to forgive. Slowly but surely your emotional bond with that person wanes, and you feel you've fallen out of love, and often will even cheat at that point. Its basically like once you are hurt really bad, a few times, its over.

I don't hold anything against my ex-Cancers though. I love them all. And I think its really like the plight of your sign - to learn to let go and forgive.

I recently dumped a friend that I should've have never been friends with. We were put together by mutual friends. I tried to suppress my true feelings about this person. We just wouldn't be real friends in real life because our outlook on life and values were completely different. The mutual friends soon moved on(another story) and I was stuck with this person who I thought was a narrow minded, weak minded, codependant and hypocrite. She didn't have a perfect life due to poor choices but she was quick to pass judgment on the circumstances of the lives of others. She was also very dishonest. She was crazy, angry and bitter. She had bad romantic relationships. Let's just say like (bitter judgmental f) attracts like (aging man into s&m). I didn't like her or her choices in life.

Taurus is not the best at communication. Sometimes it's easier for us to walk away then confront an issue. Chances are your bulls are hurt by something they think you've done.
If you still want to continue the friendship then push through that wall of silence. Don't give them a chance to freeze you out. Eventually they'll get over it.
If not, then brush it off. It's their problem and you dont need to put up with it. You deserve better than that.

Taurus people are scary, this personality ''warm and simple'' is a pure fake.
They are insensible and liars.



Sounds like you had some issues with taurus's lol. Not all taurus are bad people. Maybe you met some immature ones. But me myself normally cut people off after i feel i they dont make any positive effects on my life. We like to be mentally stimulated and dont like anyone who always has drama in their life. We may try to help but if u dont show any progress we hate to see people repeat the same mistakes. So we do have a heart. Me personally do like to feel drained after having the same conversation over and over. My thing is "what are you gonna do to change your situation" dont talk about be about it.
