Getting through to the Taurus Man....Slow and steady wins the race...But how?

Posted by countrygirl88
I am a cancer female dating a taurus male. we've known of each other for almost a decade, were interested in each other back in the day, but never dated, due to both of us being in relationships. recently we have back come in contact and realized we still liked each other. He has told me that he can see himself being with me, but when I asked if there was anyone else in the picture, he told me that he was considering someone else as well. He downplayed her and said they were not having sex, and made it seem like nothing was really there, just a casual re-connection, but he also is not the best with communicating with me. I sometimes feel as though i have to reach out to him in order to hear from him. If I go a while w/o talking to him, he will reach out but sometimes it takes a day or so to notice that im gone....when we are around each other, he is always touching me, trying to tickle me, and i caught a couple of gazes from him...but then he will leave, text me a few hours later, and then i won't hear anything from him the next day, unless i reach out...i know he wants to take it slow, and i have no issues being patient, knowing i have a reason to...how can i communicate that i am interested in him, and ask how he feels without adding too much pressure?

More details to follow, pending response....

Very valid point...he brought her up bc i asked if there was any other person in the picture....he responded yes, and did say that he once thought he could see himself with her, but that doesn't mean that they are going to be together....he then said that they aren't having sex, "or anything", like there was nothing really going on with her....i didn't pry bc i honestly don't care in the sense of being insecure, but the reason why it crossed my mind is bc i don't compete with females for male attention...just not that desperate....but i do like him and don't wanna throw things away based upon an assumption....

Hi Jean, im more of a talk everyday type...when i am interested in someone i don't like days to go by without hearing from that person...im not saying that i need to be on the phone 24/7...just a call here, a text there...bc you make time for what you want, imo

Posted by countrygirl88
Thank you Jean, that is actually what I was hoping you would say...i work full time and and in school full time, along with family obligations and friends...I wouldn't say i am too busy to date, but i will say that my own independance can sometimes allow for me to be used, or can easily send a message that i am not interested to those i date...im a military vet, so i am not used to dating civilians, but was told that if you don't hear something daily from the person you like, it means he is not interested...

Not to disagree with these guys here ^^^ but my Taurus is one step away from being clingy! It's me, the water sign, who needs my space regularly.

He texts me EVERY day and has done for the last year. Fuck me, it's been a year!!

He's not one for talking endlessly on the phone but text/voice texts are an everyday occurrence. I've had to ask him to reduce down the texts during the day as I'm working and need to focus on that. It's not horrendous, it's just become more the last few weeks. I also had to ask him to ease up on the evening texts as I often work late so when I go home I want to get shit done or switch off... not be sitting texting shit to him.

He wants to see me more often than I want to see him. I like my physical space so I can miss him but he's want me with him everyday. If we don't see each other midweek then he suffers but I don't.

It's not a nasty clingy behaviour. I think he just needs to do some more shit instead of making me his entire world. Then again, at least he's bothered about me!

PS. Think about it OP. The Taurus has know. You 10 years and now that he has a chance to be with you, he is letting you compete with someone else for his affections??? After 10 years! He cent be that serious about you you.... Think hard. Perhaps you are both meant to be just friends and nothing more...

I was thinking of letting him know that i am interested over dinner....I read that the taurus is slow to move and i may have to make the first move...through cooking dinner and inviting him over....im thinking of trying this move and letting him know that i am interested in him, and that i don't want to rush this or add undue pressure to him or myself, but i thought it fair that he knows so that he can tell me if the feeling will be reciprocated or not....thoughts???

Posted by countrygirl88

my question was simply: how can i communicate that i am interested in him, and ask how he feels without adding too much pressure?

Funny how no one has actually answered it as of yet...

Posted by countrygirl88
Thank you Jean....It's refreshing that some people still have an appreciation for forthright personalities...I said undue pressure bc some men are not the best at conversations relating to the heart or affections and feel as though they are being pressured, thus using this to hide from this type of talk...

Thank you for your advice.

I looooooooove when people cook for me.

I know that's just me and maybe not him, but I say go for it.

He probably has other members of his harem cooking for him as well... He is probably "judging" them all on their dishes before making his final decision! Smh....

Thank you for your response, but clearly you are taking simple words from my initial statement and creating your own conclusions....no worries, I am here to provide answers to your "questions" lol....We met 10 years ago, IN THE MILITARY...i was only 18, and was in a relationship....so was he...the attraction was there but i didn't make a move, and neither did he because we were loyal to our current partners of the time...back in 2011 he tried to reach out, but I was still in a relationship, so I couldn't and would not entertain him...If you would've actually read my post, instead of looking for ways to criticize, you would've noticed that I said "we've known OF each other for almost a decade",...i never said we've known each other for years and been in each other's life..kinda hard to do that when im in a relationship while spending 6 years making great money in afghanistan..but i understand how you would come to your quick conclusion...yes, then your point would make sense...just because you are not a person who talks to your SO everyday does not make me clingy for wanting a simple text message....it is funny that you mention not talking to someone everyday but you put all eggs in one basket within 1 month of connecting to someone and Im clingy for exploring my options and living my life while wanting at least a text within a 24 hour period??....I am very appreciative of any advice that I get, when it will actually make sense to my situation and is what i was actually asking for....it is very judgemental and ignorant to assume one is a part of a harem just bc and attractive guy has a chick that may be trying to also get into his world...no one wants a bum, so its not a bad thing that ppl want him, just as much as me not having a harem of my own bc there are guys that wanna be with me as well....my question really was in regards to interest and how I should go about asking him, that was pretty much it..and now, you should probably re-read my initial post...ALL OF IT lol

my question was simply: how can i communicate that i am interested in him, and ask how he feels without adding too much pressure?

Funny how no one has actually answered it as of yet...

Not every day!!! Do not expect communication every day.. if you do, Taurus is not for you.

If Taurus wants you there will be "no other competition"

If Taurus wants you he will make it as clear as your nose as he is highly persistent ....

Never chase. If he wants you he knows how to get you. "Cooking us dinner" will not be that simple to get on our "Exclusive Club" list...

U are on his harem list.

Need I go on...

Taurus sun, mars and nn..

I keep seeing this and not saying anything. No more haha.

I've never been in a relationship where I didn't keep in touch with my girlfriend every day. I don't think people need to be inseparable; that would be annoying, but calling or texting every day is not a burden. If I'm in a relationship with you, there's a 99% chance I enjoy talking to you.

I never heard before this thread that Tauruses don't like to keep in touch daily. I didn't know that was supposed to be our thing. And I have Mercury in Taurus, too. I still talk to my girlfriends daily.

What about when you are dating around? Would you still contact all the women you are seeing everyday?

Maybe it's me... But I have always liked my space and lead a hectic life style so like to keep as independent as possible and have always been attracted to men that are very independent also.

Not to disagree with these guys here ^^^ but my Taurus is one step away from being clingy! It's me, the water sign, who needs my space regularly.

He texts me EVERY day and has done for the last year. Fuck me, it's been a year!!

He's not one for talking endlessly on the phone but text/voice texts are an everyday occurrence. I've had to ask him to reduce down the texts during the day as I'm working and need to focus on that. It's not horrendous, it's just become more the last few weeks. I also had to ask him to ease up on the evening texts as I often work late so when I go home I want to get shit done or switch off... not be sitting texting shit to him.

He wants to see me more often than I want to see him. I like my physical space so I can miss him but he's want me with him everyday. If we don't see each other midweek then he suffers but I don't.

It's not a nasty clingy behaviour. I think he just needs to do some more shit instead of making me his entire world. Then again, at least he's bothered about me!

Very valid point...he brought her up bc i asked if there was any other person in the picture....he responded yes, and did say that he once thought he could see himself with her, but that doesn't mean that they are going to be together....he then said that they aren't having sex, "or anything", like there was nothing really going on with her....i didn't pry bc i honestly don't care in the sense of being insecure, but the reason why it crossed my mind is bc i don't compete with females for male attention...just not that desperate....but i do like him and don't wanna throw things away based upon an assumption....

Hi Jean, im more of a talk everyday type...when i am interested in someone i don't like days to go by without hearing from that person...im not saying that i need to be on the phone 24/7...just a call here, a text there...bc you make time for what you want, imo

A typical Taurus may not be for you then. They will become occupied with other things. They are fairly independent and I think from my experience, they expect you to be the same.

I speak to my partner fairly regularly but not everyday. There will be the odd days where he will get on with whatever he needs to deal with. Sometimes I will text and he might not respond for a few hours if he is busy. Its not personal. He's just busy.

Especially while you are only dating and not in a exclusive relationship you might need to change your expectations.

I am always admiring your wits BUT here I must chime in!

There no such thing too busy to text or call!

If he cares, loves you and all - there is no such busy mode!

I once said - I don't want to hear this nonsense! You go to the bathroom? Text me HI I am ok how are you busy will call later...or tomorrow...

And he does!!! Because he cares!!!

Otherwise I would doubt his feelings.

And you know I am talking about Scorpio! Who's mind can be changed...never! Lol

I speak to my partner fairly regularly but not everyday. There will be the odd days where he will get on with whatever he needs to deal with. Sometimes I will text and he might not respond for a few hours if he is busy. Its not personal. He's just busy.

Especially while you are only dating and not in a exclusive relationship you might need to change your expectations.

I am always admiring your wits BUT here I must chime in!

There no such thing too busy to text or call!

If he cares, loves you and all - there is no such busy mode!

I once said - I don't want to hear this nonsense! You go to the bathroom? Text me HI I am ok how are you busy will call later...or tomorrow...

And he does!!! Because he cares!!!

Otherwise I would doubt his feelings.

And you know I am talking about Scorpio! Who's mind can be changed...never! Lol

So are you saying that my partner doesn't love me?

For me that would be a huge problem!

Because when I love someone that person is on my mind all the time.

I am never too busy to forget his existence! I can hardly imagine what would I have to be doing to be too busy to not to want to hear his voice and have a few laughs together. 5 min conversation does wonders! WHO doesn't have 5 minutes?

And I am talking about crazy Scorp who makes himself busy if he can relax. Being relaxed is not natural for him. However there is always driving or being at the store or just finishing something and taking a break before starting something new to tell me what happened and what's is going to happen...

Seems just natural!

Very valid point...he brought her up bc i asked if there was any other person in the picture....he responded yes, and did say that he once thought he could see himself with her, but that doesn't mean that they are going to be together....he then said that they aren't having sex, "or anything", like there was nothing really going on with her....i didn't pry bc i honestly don't care in the sense of being insecure, but the reason why it crossed my mind is bc i don't compete with females for male attention...just not that desperate....but i do like him and don't wanna throw things away based upon an assumption....

Hmm, maybe I should break up with him then...

I totally get that we subscribe to the idea that effort equals interest but that is not the end all be all for every person. Some of male friends are in constant contact with girls that they only like sleeping with. Others are in long committed relationships and don't speak every single day.
