Leo/Taurus pairing

Hello

I dated a Taurus years ago and she was a bit borderline crazy lol. I'm not going to let one relationship form my judgement, so have any bulls dated Leos and what was your experience of the relationship?

Astrologically its not the best pairing, both being fixed stubborn signs. Also the fire/earth element apparently is not meant to be good.
Bulls move too slow for me. Love em to death but it's hard to just move that slow
My first real relationship was with a Leo. Obviously we aren't together now, but we are best friends for life. Been friends for 16 years. When we were in a relationship, it was fun, but I was incredibly inexperienced and stubborn beyond belief. I was 14 at the time so clearly had zero knowledge on how to be a girlfriend. We lasted a few months and somehow couldn't seem to get over each other. We messed around on & off for most of our high school years. Eventually we both felt it was best to stop and just stay friends. Best decision ever. I wasn't "crazy" but I will admit I was sprung on him, because he was my first real bf and letting go was tough. I will admit that he was the first guy to bring out my "aggressive" side which I guess paid off in my future relationships Winking lol
I think fire-earth combos are underrated generally. I am generally drawn to Leo women, they have this magnetism over me. I've only been with 2, one started off great but got sour fast over something pretty petty, and the other one was good but she had to move out of the city unfortunately.

There's currently a Leo girl that's been hanging around with me a lot but I can't seem to figure out if there's attraction from her end.

Why don't you ask her?

I probably will the next time I see her. I'm usually very open and don't have issues opening up to people, but with Leo girls, I cannot express myself the way I'd like to. I freeze around them and I don't get why?
I dated a Leo - once ... I won't label cause it was only one and he was a hot mess - I had to stop drop and roll ...

years and I means years later he contacted me but couldn't really remember that we didn't gel - see I have an excellent memory for the most part - and he was so into himself that I played with his head for a bit before I let go - I like payback - especially when they can't even freaking remember who you are ...

Nice... I love pay back too... Got my vengeance on a sag. Tracked him down two continents....

I also have to slowly do a "Taurus fade out" on a ten year friendship with a Leo female... She ruined a holiday in my eyes a few years back and when I returned I slowly made sure I had less contact with her until it eventually died out... Her ego eventually got the better of her asking me "don't you want friends?!!!!!" in dramatic Leo fashion...

Well my mother was ill and she made a comment regarding a post I had made on my own fb wall and then things came to a dramatic end when I had tell her to "look at your ego it's damn ugly.. No wonder your other friends dropped you"... Don't miss her one ounce...

But it seems there must be a lot of people I don't like as I ended a 9 year Pisces friendship 10yesrs ago, a 9 year cancer friendship 2 years ago and a 6 month Pisces friendship 3 months ago...

I can't stand water energy other than scorp energy although I can't stand scorp moons or a VIS. But that might have more to do with the sun signs. The Scorp moon was a gem sun and VIS was a sag sun with a Taurus moon...


Well you are getting better/quicker at deciding who stays/goes lol - as people grow, they take different paths in life and that's ok. The more you understand yourself, the more you look at what is around you and decide whether it is a positive in your life right now or not ...

I had a 40 year friendship that went sour at the same time that I was getting divorced from the Pisces of 10 years - and they were partially to blame as well - I always thought it was good and yes, I sure did have all my eggs in one basket but it turns out it wasn't good at all and had to end. I think it was overdue. I've grown considerably since then because of that. I have great and crazy memories that I will always carry with me.

Ironically my son is a very strong Leo - 4 major placements S, AC, Venus, Merc - an Aqua Moon and Gemini Mars - he is not egotistical at all and is so very chilled but firm/dignified ...


I like Leo's but it hasn't worked out romantically for me. But I do know a Leo guy, Taurus gal, married 43 years - any combo can work, we are so much more than our sun signs.
Interesting feedback. Thank you.

Well so far maturity and common interest wise we both seem to be on similar pages.

It does take time for a bull to open up, but saying that this girl has enough of my interest to see where things go for now.

The Bulls and Lions are 2 very strong, fixed, and stubborn signs.

However saying that any relationship is about communicating, understanding and compromising.

Once these 3 things are there, life does become more bearable lol.
My Leo friend is in a relationship with a Taurus woman. It's not entirely impossible, but more than likely the Leo will need to take more of a backseat when making decisions.

Leos and Tauruses both want to have a comfortable life style , but Leo likes to live large and that may rub Taurus the wrong way. Tauruses tend to like to do things their way and can be harder to convince otherwise. This will irritate the Leo who sees multiple possibilities.

So basically for this to work, the Leo will need to follow the Tauruses lead. This can be very hard because Leos are creative types who need freedom to express. Compromise is definitely possible, but there needs to be a lot of communication for this to work.
I'm curious how this pairing works for a female Leo and a male Taurus.

sounds very boring

Yeah from the outside looking in, it defnitely looks boring. I've only been attracted to one Taurus woman really. She was pretty spunky, so that may have been more exciting.
From my previous experience with dating a Taurus (albeit a long time ago where we were both immature) she was just very stubborn and would budge on things that I considered she needed to budge on. So as Chuckem pointed out yes I am aware of some of the issues a Leo Taurus pairing has.

My Taurus ex and I had nothing in common. I had a busy life style and lots of extra curricular activities, and was spending time with her, my family and my friends. She on other hand did not have a busy life style so outside of work she was bored. Also very possessive.

With the new bull we seem to have lots in common so this initially makes for someone who is prepared to have a good time and is someone that you can have a good time with.

Time will tell, but I guess in any relationship a compromise is required. Its comes to the 2 individuals at the time and how they wish to compromise, that's the true test of stubbornness and understanding lol.
Leos and Tauruses both have strong personality but I believe that we make a great couple, as long as we keep communicating and know that we are on the same team, can be a great relationship.

I dated a leo guy for 3 years and we had way more good times than bad one.

Unfortunately we're not together anymore because we live in different countries but we still talk and I think we would still be together if it wasn't for the distance.

Neither do I get it! In many ways (fancy life style , stubborn, deep and committed to both work and people) you Taureans seem like us Leos. But when it comes to expressing your liking, uff! If you don't openly say that, we get confused, and that can cause us to distance ourselves from you even if you're serious. Just sharing my opinion.

I mean I openly say it but it takes some time to get there. I've expressed myself to the Leo that I was interested in but she aint interested as I found out she's just coming out of a break up.

Oh! ok. I may sound like I'm made up of stone and ice, but I don't let a breakup hold me for long. It was a maximum of one month of low moods and down days. I'm back to being myself.

And I honestly (no kidding or bragging) don't know how to deal with the "it takes time to get there"...

I mean, patience is something I don't possess at all. But I can understand your perspective. To me, being made to wait would sound like "I'm checking out others/I'm not sure if you're good enough" and that'd make me burn with anger. Sound like a child, eh? smile

This leo was up and down with this aquarius for a long time. I knew her back then when she first got involved with him, and he played her really badly through the years by cheating and such. I personally don't think she's interested anyway, so I've back off.

The whole "it takes time to get there" for me is that I need to get to know a person first before investing my time and commitment to them. I can't blindly go into relationships or date. I need to get to know you first. I'm not out there pursuing others while I do this. It's just observing you and your actions and seeing what kind of person you are before jumping the gun. I could see how that could bug people, but it's a calculated move from us Taurus's to not get hurt or invest into something that could possibly be bad. You're right when you say, "you may not be good enough" (obviously I don't mean you personally) because honestly, there is a possibility that you may not be, but if you are, you for sure will know it because we bulls will pursue the hell out of you if so. We are simple and honest folks.

Haha, the similarities and the differences! Yeah, I get your point.
The most successful Leo and Taurus combo, I seen is bill and giuliana rancic. They been together for 10 years. He is the Taurus and she is the Leo. And the other is a Taurus comedian who was married to a Leo woman for 30 plus years, basically until her death. I can't remember the comedian name. In my personal life, I seen this combination once; and it did not worked. He was too controlling, etc. But they had a child together. And the child is a Taurus too. And the relationship between the Leo mom and Taurus daughter is not good either. For some it works, and for others it does not. I guess for the ones where the relationship is successful, the marriage/partnership can last a lifetime. But there has to be a lot of compromise for both signs.
