Dating a fellow Bull

Have any Bulls on here ever seriously dated another Bull? How'd it go?
My Taurus best friend has been hounding me to set her up with someone. I do know a lot of really great guys (mostly coworkers), but the ones I think she could be potentially good with are three Taurus'. I only have one chance b/c I feel like I can only set her up with one coworker, anymore and things will start getting awkward. My best friend is a libra moon, aries mercury, gemini venus, cancer mars.
Taurus #1 Real charmer, when I first met him I thought he was an arrogant, epic player. Eventually came to see him as very sweet and caring. He's also very eager to help, lead and contribute. Means he's dependable/responsible, right? Sun- Taurus, Moon- Capricorn, Mercury- Aries, Venus- Aries, Mars- Pisces. He's my favorite pick for her. I think his venus might get a real kick out of trying to nail down an indecisive libra moon, and an even more indecisive gemini venus. And I think she'll be attracted to the charming, bad boy arrogance.lol
Taurus #2 Somewhat shy, socially awkward, closed off but always quick to laugh. Knows he's weird and is totally cool with it. Hardworking. Sun- Taurus, Moon- Cancer, Mercury- Gemini, Venus- Cancer, Mars- Cancer. I feel very protective of him. He's a good guy but I think he might be too passive for my friend. She's dated a lot of outgoing types. I think she needs (or more likely wants) more fire. I'll think she'll push him around and I don't want her to hurt him Sad
Taurus #3 Coolest guy I've ever met. Very alpha male, very honest, very tolerant, very "happy". He gets along well with everyone. Does seem to get sparks of irritation, but I think me and my cancer moon are the only ones who pick up on it. Might be different if someone is in a relationship with him. Sun- Taurus, Moon- Aries, Mercury- Taurus, Venus- Taurus, Mars- Taurus. My friend can be a bit argumentative (harmlessly), I feel like that could cause serious annoyances real quickly. Personality wise, he's the guy she'd go for, but she is a wee bit vain and he's um...not her type when it comes to looks.
All four of them are quirky, weird artsy types. The guys all exhibit a distinct masculine energy and calmness.
So two Bulls together...thoughts? And if yes, go for it...which Taurus do you think is best for a Tau sun, lib moon, aries merc, gem venus, cancer mars?
I'm not sure how two Taurus' will act in a relationship together but if I had to choose a mate for your friend, I would choose Taurus #1 based on his birth chart placements in comparison with your friend's placements because they seem more compatable.
If I were to choose based on your personality descriptions, I would definitely pick Taurus #3 because he seem like the one who will most likely bounce back after a bad relationship; he seems like a regular go with the flow kind of guy with a few temper flare ups. I'm not sure how serious your friend is (i don't think she's too serious nor do i think she knows what she wants)but she would be able to have fun w/ Taurus and see where it goes.
i.e. sorry to say this, but your friend sounds a bit shallow. It seems like dating the best looking "cool bad boy" buy is her thing. If those are her requirements then she should continue to date casually.
I like the sound of Bull #2 + #3 smile but I think #1 would probably be better suited for your friend, imo.

I dated a Bull for a while but we don't talk anymore. mmhmm.
We were actually childhood friends, went to school together, rode the bus together everyday, did homework together etc and then moved away/traveled for uni and came back to the same city eventually. We kept in touch every few months during our travels, the usual emails about how school was going, how life was etc fun, friendly email updates, I knew about the people in his life, he knew about mine. I was quite excited to have learnt that he was back in town and we didn't hesitate to meet and catch up properly after so many years. We clicked right away like we hadn't been absent from each other's lives. After a few lunches and dinners, he started treating me a little differently and admitted he had the biggest crush on me in school and how glad he was that we're back in touch again (by this time, we had both broken up with our exes for a year or so).
Things were good, we hung out a lot but then his attitude just became really weird. It surprised me because that wasn't the kind of person he was since I've known him for what seems like forever. He became really ungentlemanly, selfish, arrogant, exhibited a lot of 'I want to be a playa' mannerisms,a lot of headgames, wasn't consistent - he wouldn't call when he said he would-, he treated me in a way that I felt was disrespectful (particularly because we've known each other for so long and he knew me really well). A complete 180 to the person I thought I knew. I definitely let it go on for way too long, in the hopes that he was just going through a weird phase and would return back to the guy I fell for.
Trust I think was the major dealbreaker for me. It was awful being treated that way by someone you have a lot of history with. So once I realised I couldn't trust him with his words and actions, I couldn't trust him with my heart either.
Plus we were both far too stubborn, neither of us would give in.
Harry99: Wish I could see this guy's chart. Do you think you could guess what his moon or venus are? I'm trying to think of what placements would make a Taurus a show-off and I'm coming up blank. Maybe a Leo moon...
VenusStar: I agree with you about #3 and I'm starting to lean more towards him now. My friend is looking to settle down, and she is very relationship oriented, very romantic. Plus they have opposite moons and that's supposed to hold some strong attraction. I think if I emphasize his great character and cool qualities, she'll put away her check list and see the actual man. Personality wise and stability wise, he really is the best guy for her. When I think about it, I shouldn't be setting her up with another bad-boy type. She needs a real man. She is a teeny bit shallow, but I think that comes more from growing up on Disney Princesses and having a Prince Charming complex, than some troubling personality deficiency.
Artichoke: Thanks for sharing your experience. I think I'm getting too far ahead of myself, but I'm wary of the stubbornness. I've personally never had romantic chemistry with a Taurus man. I've always felt an instant kinship and like their little sister. I do like the idea of a Taurus couple, when I first got into astrology I was convinced I would end up with a Taurus.lol I'm surprised I rarely, if ever, see two Taurus' together in real life.
