Trouble with taurus

I am having some troubles with my taurus boyfriend. We've broken up several times over fighting too much. He's so stubborn, and with the Virgo's sharp tounge, i can push him over the edge. But after our last break up, I can't seem to get back into the swing of things, as I usually do. I'm having a hard time warming up to him and putting all my trust in him as I've done in the past. Our last break up was really harsh, and he said some things that made me think twice about his feelings. Now he repeatedly tells me he loves me, calls me sweet names, and tries to be affectionate as often as possible. Because I've not been able to step "out of my box" with him, I feel like it's causing more problems between us. Has anyone ever had this dilemma? Or am I just abnormal for not being able to be my complete like usual around him?

Sincerely,


are you sure taurus is a trouble? I mean, that's only virgoish achievement! And they can't loose it. Poor taurus can't be trouble as far as I know them!

That's what I call two captains on the same boat, the impossible..!

Tarusians loves to take a lead as much as Virgoan. One of you guys MUST give up for the benefits of the relationship or else not much can be achived.

i just can't imagine being the non-dominant one!

what type of weak-willed, spineless Howler monkey actually LIKES being forced around? Why KISS ASS when YOU can KICK IT?

lol, VE, that was funny...

virgo12, i've never been in a romantic relationship with a taurus, but tauruses were my closest friends growing up. they can really stubborn, chauvanistic and a bit absent-minded sometimes to be honest. but then again, virgos have their faults too.

like you, i prefer to be the dominant one too, but sometimes in order for things to work out in the long run, you need to share the pants. i'm having a falling out with my taurus friend right now, and it isn't easy considering that i've known her since childhood. she so used to being the dominant one because i would always take the back seat to avoid conflict. i can only take so much for so long, and decided to give her some of MY perspectives. she refuses to pay any heed to them, and we've even discussed some of our issues to mutual friends, who for the most part agree with me. but she still refuses to budge when she was clearly in the wrong and basically just talking out of her a $ $ then tried to backpedal. go figure.

sorry, i had to vent a bit there. but anyway, my point is, tauruses aren't always the easiest to get along with (they can be easy-going, as long as they are comfortable), and they're one hell of a stubborn bunch. but i think everyone deserves a second chance (not 3rd, 4th, etc., some people like to be generous when handing out chances) so maybe you should try to patch things up with him. try having a civil conversation about the problems that you two are going through instead of always having a screaming fest. make sure he's really listening though, some just sit there, nod, and "okay" everything when they're really elsewhere in their mind. if no effort is put forth on both sides, or you feel that this is too awkward for you, cut your losses. life is too short to spend it with someone you can't mesh with.

best of luck to you.

virgo12, this seems to be a sign that people face when they are thinking something is finally finished. Every time we can put aside our differences and go in for another round, we're still trying to make it work .. but, when we can't get back to that place where we once "trusted" the person .. then, that would suggest to me that the writing is on the wall. If you can't trust him, then why waste any more time?

Feeling such as you do, if you did try and work things out .. it would seem logical that every and any little thing would become a mountainous obstacle to overcome because the trust isn't there, you know what I mean?

Whatever you decide is best for you, I'm sure it will be .. just don't let yourself fall into thinking that something is wrong with you because your feelings have changed. We all change.

thanks for all the advice, i'm still thinking about what i'm going to do with this whole situation. It's so on and off, but it's incredibly hard to leave things after spending so much time on this one relationship. But I completely agree with you P-Angel, it's probably time..
