Never dated a Taurus before....HELP!
How can you know at this point? Just take it one step at a time, and see how it evolves.
I don't think you have anything to worry about! Since you know he's not a texter, then don't use that against him. Find a way of communication that does make you comfortable. Like an evening phone call, or whatever you guys decide on.
Glad you left "the shadows" to talk to us. Good luck to you, Sag! 🙂

Don’t let your insecurity ruin it. That’s all. Sounds like a good match!!
Communication is one of the basics of the relationship. If it is off, it is done. In your case I would check if he is consistent with dates. If he asks you out regularly, it is okay. If no, yeah, he is not that interested. You can also directly say that it is important for you to get to know someone via texting/calls and see what he replies. If it is old lame "I am a bad texter" - welp.
You could always let him know you'd enjoy getting a text from him. Even something short and sweet like gm.
If he likes you and wants to explore something further with you he will make an effort to meet your needs IF you voice them. Men can't read our minds any more then we can read theirs.

...I am so used to being love bombed by guys in the beginning ...
Right. And how has that been working out for you thus far, with respect to building something long term?
Anyway, there is no need to rush something that is meant to last. Having someone "love bomb" you with a million text messages straight out the gate really isn't an indication that a man (or woman) is truly invested in you. The only thing that love bombing and sending text messages proves is the person lacks sincerity and knows how to use a cell phone.
Taking into account that Earth signs (if they lack fire or air) are a bit slower in movement, it is not uncommon to see some gaps of time between meetings and slowing down to get to know each other with Bulls. Simmer down Lady Sag. The Bull will check in every so often if you don't overwhelm him.
What is "normal"? Different folks, different habits.
I just read he's a 57 year old Taurus living with his dad.
Men on dating apps lie. Find out if he actually has a job and he's not living there because he's unemployed.
Men and women are all the same, and the more used to dating apps people are, the more games are played because a person has too much access to other casual hook ups.
Let him make more of an effort by texting you or asking you out and you go out on other dates and don't worry about him so much.
If he enjoys your company he will make effort.

normal. don't sweat the small stuff.
like lady neptune says, if it means that much to you voice that that's what you would like.
but like gobby says too, a text doesn't guarantee that this has longevity.
taurus typically don't do texts. a 57 year old man with 5 kids and a poorly father isn't going to be texting with the frequency of a 12 year old girl. instead i would be focusing on enjoying your time together and getting to know him better. it sounds like very early days so just enjoy the progression and...be patient!

A) he is a retired Deep Sea Welder who had a horrific accident 2 years ago and was never supposed to walk again (I've seen the scars) and he moved here to take care of his Dad who has early onset dementia because he is now retired and can live anywhere...so he is not just a 57 year old man who lives with his Dad..lol...he has a good retirement and doesnt worry about money
B) I know I sounded silly...but I am a classic overthinker...just needed to be told to stop 🙂
C) Thank you Jeane! I have been reading your messages on here to others and you really give great advise. Over the last week, he has called several times a day and shows me he makes time for me, it may not be when I want it, but it always happens, so that has made me feel like I do need to just relax and enjoy our time together.
D) thank you all for the advice to just take a step back, as a fire sign dealing with an earth sign for the first time in her life, this is a new experience and learning to slow it down a little is a bit hard, but now that I can get my overthinking head out of it, its not so bad

Update: He told me he was my boyfriend today. I had a bit of a melt down last weekend when I was triggered by seeing my mom....I felt very alone and told him he wasn't giving me enough. We talked Sunday night....he needed time to think. And Monday I apologized and let him know why I was being so emotional. Since then, he's called at least twice a day and tonight told me he was my boyfriend. I think this is his way of stepping up.

I'd be very embarrassed if he calls himself a boyfriend. Bf/gf status is for teens. Boy - friend. Is he a boy?? He's supposed to be a man by now right??
I wish middle age people would use appropriate terms. Call him your partner, that would be more suitable, if he's one of course.
What was the lie?

I will call him whatever HE wants me to call him. Its nice to have a boyfriend by the way...I kind of like it. I had a partner for 17 years...I'm done with that.
Just an update for my thread....
We are going strong, dating. We see each other most weekends and he has actually surprised me one day during the week. My Bday was last weekend and he invited me to his town and got me a hotel room for 2 nights. I met his Dad and we all went out to breakfast one morning. He and I went hiking in the Redwoods, long walk on the beach to a beached ship (which he went back to, to salvage some cleats the next day for a gift he is going to build me) we collected drifwood and Sand Dollars. We ate out a few times, explored the area since he is fairly new as well. It was just very nice.
I am not overthinking anything....I lie...I am overthinking sometimes, but I am not allowing myself to act on any of the crazy thoughts in my head. I wait. I wait for him to call or text. And you know what? He always does. Everyday. Even today, its 4pm here and I had not heard from him....but he literally just called while I am writing this post. His consistency is building my trust and calming my soul.

And the drive isnt that bad, its very beautiful one lane country road thru Redwoods

For a limited time offer of $29.99 per hour, minimum 3 days, I can get you your Taurus, as a Taurus myself I know how it’s good to be w us. Lmk, I can help, don’t wait.
I more often than not read about how Taurus people might be explorative with sex at first with a new partner, but eventually get into a routine of the vanilla stuff, or just carry on whatever worked well after the explorative stage and don't do any more e
With some lame excuse.
Idk if I should give a verbal lashing and play games or ignore.
I'll probably ignore.
But my Gemini moon is a little bore wants to play games.
So I met this Taurus through a dating app. We met 1.5 month after we matched and had sex on the 2nd date.
After this, when I asked this taurus what were his intentions, his reply was: I want to go with the flow, but I don't want to be in a relationship ri

I hit it off with my Taurus slow early December, and we have been rocking since then. As stubborn, bull headed and slow moving as they are, we recently committed to one another, and began discussing what the future would look like for us before tragedy hi

Called me up 3x on her vacation, sending me selfies and photos of the resort.
Refuses to talk but called on her last night in Cuba tonight. Says the next time she talks to me it will be in person. I asked when and she would not answer.
Our first date was electric. He kept saying its really freaky how much he likes me and only having met me. We literaly had 1 text conversation before he asked me out to lunch the very next day. I felt the same about him. When he finally kissed me it was amazing and he seems to be everything Im looking for. Talkative, outgoing, can build things, is a good dad to his 5 kids. He's funny and sweet and I love his face when he smiles. He's semi retired, and recently moved to our state to help out his Dad thru some medical issues.
He came over the next day as he had business in my town and we got to talk and spend about an hour together. Again, so wonderful!
He even called me on the drive back to his place and confessed to a lie he had told me on the 1st date. Which I appreciated him coming clean and it wasn't a big deal.
He doesn't text though.
This is the only thing that is bothering me so far. I'm afraid it's out of sight, out of mind, and I am so used to being love bombed by guys in the beginning (dating in your late 40's is hell). He does text me back when I text him, not immediately, but I dont mind that. And he does call me back if I've called.
I just need some reasurrance that this is normal and that he isnt going to forget all about me.
BTW....I have been on this site for years...just never posted before, but I've literally read every message in the Sagittarius and Gemini forums 🙂 Thank you all for your comments!
