Why Do Tauruses Prefer Quiet and Relaxed Activities

Tauruses typically enjoy calm, comfortable environments and may prefer relaxing activities over constant excitement. They value stability and leisure, which can seem boring to others but bring them peace. Understanding their need for tranquility helps explain their preference for quiet time rather than constant fun.

"but she likes to sit at home and be bored and says that she enjoys being bored"

OK, I have a hard time believing this, what does she seriously do when she sits there by herself. Does she look happy? What is she doing? Does she want to be herself? Is she a loner?

well you confused me great bull.

..but yeah im dead serious. she would rather stay on the computer than engage in social activities. she even thinks shopping is boring. shes not a loner but she says that she hates talking and she likes lying down all day. well i dont know if its a taurus thing or if shes just weird.

It depends on our mooooo ds.

I don't like talking either actually... to the point where I'm annoyed when ppl talk to me because I'm so deep in thought... most of the time atleast. Even my mom always complains that I don't pay attention to her and that she can't talk to me... I'm just like 'ooooohhhhh man' I just feel like LEAVE ME ALONE! God I love my solitude...

Most people bore ME actually... I'm out to do something, I'm out to do it in the NOW, on impulse, stupidly, wildly and on a grand scale! LOL I don't know what ppl call FUN... but hanging around and chit chatting is NOT my thing... ok unless it's at the beach or something 🙂... I rarely ever answer my friends phone calls unless it's for SOMETHING... a trip? some REALLY juicy gossip? ok... but after so much I ZONE OUT... those libras oh those libras lol

Hmmmm I just say that we choose our activities wisely 😛

I dont like being bored. I just like being... how do you say, comfortable. Im comfortable with what I know, and one of the many things I like to do is relax when I have the chance. I am a home body. I dont like all that partying hooplah. Meeting people and being tuck with strangers can be tedious.

Im more prone to party with a close group of friends and not just go partying for the hell of it.

I dont even like to talk to my friends on the phone much. I ignore calls like the phone isnt even ringing...

You just described me 100%

From what I've seen, sometimes taurus people enjoy just sitting and thinking about a subject and we dread it when others decide to "grace" us with their presence.

Some call it beeing boring, but I dont really give a rats ar $ e what they think.

But let me just clarify that when we're out to parteee mon frere... we go the other extreme! LOL

And btw you leos are gossipy! This one guy I've partied with before comes in today, he knows an old guy who works in the same office (I didn't know this) and they start chit chatting and the leo asks him about his trip to vegas and my co-worker jokes that he took ME to vegas... that I love to party and drink (well he's joking because he thinks it's not true) I just turned around and smiled at him and he just gave me that look of 'yeah I know' and just went back to what I was doing. Today he says that the leo had said 'well you should have taken her cuz she LIKES to party' By the way my co-worker kept repeating that, the curious look in his eyes, I got the impression that damn leo let his mouth go. I was just amused.

lol wow okay i find it interesting that taurus people like to be alone...it is completely boring..like im the exact opposite. a big crowd is a must and i definitely love to talk.but okay i guess i wont criticize the taureans anymore..i didnt know so many people were like her...

bittertaurus, i must agree that leos love to gossip. actually i dont know if its just leos, i think everyone does their share of gossiping.

Do we like to have fun— Heck yeah, have you ever stopped to think your sis IS having fun just sitting there on the pc not being bugged. Maybe shes on DXP 🙂
But seriously, since u asked. I'm very spontanous, and adventurous. I like to try things at least once to fully decided if I like it or not. But what do I love the most, being home. I love to have a clean place. I love cooking, I love dancing and singining in my room, I love my comfy bed to read or navigate online (like right now). Don't get me wrong...if I could afford traveling all the time I'd do that too. The reality is I work 7-5:30 and I am tired. My home is where I relax.

VT an Bt -I must be your triplet (st)...I hate being the phone. I will let it ring and listen to the messages later. My family always gets on me for it too..."what if it were an emergency"...you'd call again and I would raise the probability of picking up to 90% .

It's no such that we like to be alone, but rather that we are fiercely independent. I can take company or leave it. I have no problem going to see a movie by myself. I have no problem going to a nice restaurant by myself. If I have company, great and if not, I'm OK with it.

I think Taurys get a bad rap for being homebodies, but it really boils down to our independence and it can be intimidating to others.

I 2nd that, bitter. I'm the say way in terms of when i become detached. I don't have a sharp tongue, but I can have a sharp detachment when I'm toast with someone. Once it's over with someone, it's over and takes A LOT to get them back in my good graces.

Me too...I call it being 'done'. Once I decided in my head that I'm 'done' with it-it's a done deal. Thats when I'm called a stubborn taurus by some, and cold hearted bitch by others. Thats when I shrug my shoulders and say "its my life" I choose my friends and if i lived 20 some years with out you, I can live another 20 some years with out you.
