Is this Normal Taurus Behavior?

When someone reveals that they love you, do you freak out?

I have a Taurus moon and Venus... so I'm wondering if me freaking out is because my Taurus is on full on panic mode.

I'm sure that this phase will pass. When he first said it, I was on the moon. Now... I'm freaking out. Ol' boy could destroy me, if he so desired. I'm sure he wouldn't do such a thing.

I have never been so vulnerable to another before in my life.

Nope...other way around.

Go with your feelings. Sure we all worry about the future, Taurus being fixed and an earth sign definitely makes sense that we stick to what's practical and realistic. When it comes to love, nothing about it is practical and realistic at first. Trust how you feel about him but always assess long run potential as that is usually the goal with Taurus Venus--stability.

oh sweetie, congratulations - I've been there, I know what you mean - I mean it's like "please hold on to the bar" sort of feeling ... remain calm; deep breathing; smile and try to enjoy all the love around you ... you deserve it too !

I think also part of it is that he was on vacation for 2 weeks and when came back we spent the weekend together.

He said that he was surprised about how much he missed me and then was going back and forth to tell me (he was speaking out loud) then said I don't know why this is hitting so hard all at once, I wasn't expecting this so soon... months down the line yes, but... I never expected to miss you so much. Then he got quiet and said fuck it and then said it.

The rest of the weekend he didn't mention it again... kind of glossed over it. I wasn't going to bring it up, since he wasn't mentally prepared to say such a thing. We haven't talked since Sunday, but that is expected. He is doing a lot of stuff and him bring all that up. I understand his absence.

I kind of need to go through my own head space, but I guess I'm paranoid and overwhelmed, hopeful... just a lot.

Thanks everyone fo

I just realized you're female.... I though you're a male (in a way of how you write). 😐

I will freak out for several reasons.

This is how my mind wanders....

1. I love him too, but he caught me off guard. "Should I say it back" I suck at these things. Or just keep my trap shut? Let him get it off his chest, and I can re-address this at another time....but I can't just leave him hanging. May be I can just pretend that I didn't hear it, re-address this at a later time, and write him some poetry instead. I express myself better on paper.

2. I didn't love him or feel the same way. And now I am extremely uncomfortable. I want to disappear. Be invisible. Anywhere but here. He's waiting, and I suck at being pretentious. I suffer from a diarrhea of the mouth. I know something is going to come out, and it will not be pretty. Here is a good response. Say Nothing, and just smile.

3. Too much too soon. OMG! Here we go, this will be written all over my face. No verbal explanations necessary. My face would be a mixture of disgust, WTF, and shock...enough for him to abandon the mission. It's not interest or disinterest...It's "you haven't known me well enough to make that determination...so don't even bother."
