Why do Taurus men so bad at communicating?

I'm not sure if it's just me, but I find it very strange and kinda annoying how taurus men are so bad at communicating. I have been dating a taurus guy for over a month now, and at first he seemed to be so easy to text and he would very often. Things are going pretty well with him, and things seem to happen pretty fast as he introduced me to his family on the second date! he also had me meet his friends.

He does seem to text now and again, and its usually him first. I know hes working in the week and is very busy...but when we do text I find it really hard to have a proper conversation as half the time he ignores some of the things I say (like when I ask how his day was etc) and its a very light convo, like hes just checking in asking if im ok. When we are together hes very chatty, and he is on the phone too.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Change the title of your thread to:

Why must I consistently annoy an individual with text conversations when they're busy at work?

Advice: Call him after work. No more texting. I'm sure he would rather hear your voice instead.

OK?

He's Venusian. Just stop by his place and surprise him. Light physical touches will take you a long way.

Then you can ask him how his day went? 😉

As I said, he's usually the one to text first. I'm rarely the one to do so first so I'm not texting him constantly. There are times were we go for a while without talking. I don't bother him as I know how annoying it is when someone wants to talk 24/7, so I'm talking about when he initiates the convo first!

There is no problem, no need to create one.

It doesn't matter. Busy is busy. Communication can be presented in various methods. I find 'texting' to be the weakest method. Too impersonal. Way too many interpretations. Too much confusion. If someone initiates a text, and then doesn't respond when you text, chances are, he's busy at work. He's attempting to do too many things at once. Stop texting.

I wasn't being rude. Forgive me. I'm a straight shooter. You emphasized busy from work, and that everything else was going great. Just take the Venusian advice and let things flow organically.

You analyze too much. What zodiac sign are you?

Yeah your probably right, I do tend to think way too much into things sometimes! I just found it confusing thats all, as I've never dated a taurus before! Plus I'm always worrying about messing things up.

My star sign is Aquarius 🙂

I think some women just dont see their men for who they are and expect them to do stuff according to their script

taurus are very consistent... consistent in ignoring questions.. spell frustrations. Thats not all..wait for the disappearing act that they practice.. Spell disappointment. U got it!

Yeah I agree with the first answer. Forget the texting crap. Try calling him more like when he's not busy or working. Hearing someones voice is wayy better in a relationship.

I don't know. I would peak in and leave it at that. Texting is so impersonal I don't get what the fuss is about? You want my full attention, sit right infront of me, or call me, or just be there, not this texting bs.

You can't lie to me in person, I ca't hold you, I can't tease you, I can't enjoy the warm sensation of a persons presence with a text. Dump that bs, be open, be relaxed, be fun WITH me.

I hate the whole texting thing. It is so bad that even when my scorp is with me, my phone could ring till kingdom come, I couldn't careless. I'll know when its really serious. And she knows it as well. She just about flips every time my phone beeps or rings etc lol I know why it is going of, I know who calls and when it is bound to happen. I also know what is priority in my life and what isn't, and at that time, it is her, over and done. She on the other hand is constantly on the phone and I have made it clear that if you want to do that while I am around, then you might as well leave.

Now, she only answers when it is her parents or it is really serious. She might even warn me before we spend time together that their might be a personal call she has to take. To date, only her parents have called her while we where together. No friends or fb messages or bbm etc. It is rude as hell, and very impersonal.

I social face to face. We arrange a BBQ, or go to dinner or something. I am not stopping her from doing it, I just made it clear that I hate the fact that she is with me and then sits and texts. Like going to you SO to watch TV... You can stay at home and do the same...

I think he might be similar.

This is not Taurus man problem, it's just men in general. Look at the bright side though, he is busy at work and not knocking boots elsewhere. Count your blessing and stop expecting things to always go your way. You'll be a lot happier. Do take up a hobby.

Not that you asked, but if you go getting all insecure, it's gonna breed inconsistent behavior on your part. Stop it. If you start that, he'll mirror that and you don't want that.

He sounds like a good one. Just enjoy the ride. 🙂

Thank you so much for this, I think you're right. I'm acting a bit insecure because I'm scared he will lose interest. I must stop that! It just made me confused as he was really consistant at first with texting and now he isn't as much... whether that was just because he was trying to win me over and now he knows how much I like him hes taking it easy a bit now. I guess thats just how men are!

Thank you for the replies, it does help a lot. I know I'm probably being silly and worrying over nothing. I've never dated a taurus and he really is the most interesting and lovely man I've met in a long time.

Apologies if this makes me look even worse, but it helps talking about it! I'm finding confusing is how taurus men have trouble communicating how they feel too. I'm getting to the point where I feel that I wanna express how much I like him and want to move things a bit further instead of just dating, but worried I'll push him away by doing so. He said he really likes me and wants to take things slow even though he introduced me to his family on the second date which a find ironic.

I've tried to hint my feelings by complimenting him by saying how amazing he is etc, and he just smiles, gave a jokey remark and he does a nervous laugh! I don't think he knows how or takes compliments very well. He hasn't really complimented me much. I've noticed the light touches, hand holding etc. I'm guessing they aren't the expressive type and keep a lot of feelings/thoughts to themselves!

Well, surprise, youre an air sign. You value communication more than anything. He's an Earth sign, he values tangible gestures more than anything, so calm down.

Taurs are a fvking nightmare. They're in their own little world...

We just usually ignore annoying people, so it feels that way for you.

And texting doesn't put you in your little fake world?

That is the real problem right there. Life is for the living! Not the dam mobile zombie apocalypse!!! lol

I will say this much. I know I am prone to holding back, especially when I face extreme emotions. I reaaly don't know how to express them without losing control or even worse losing the person(s) involved.

If I can get past this I am sure that I can live a richer life. Not being able to really put into words what I feel, no matter which side of the extreme, trying to coax me into texting is possibly the worst thing ever!

Imagine how I feel normally then lol

Woah woah woah...

Weren't you the one complaining about us 'just' being about sexy time!?!?!

Ironic isn't it... hahaha
