Any one a Taurus currently with a Taurus ?

Just want to know your story. Progress. I've been with my taurus guy for over a year now. Its been a rollercoaster. He would break up with me EVERYTIME things got a bit challenging. It was so annoying. He just wasn't and still isn't good with communicating when it comes to things that might be bothering me. Confrontation if you will. He just gets in this defensive way , sarcasm , he can be the biggest ahole. But when we're good we're great. He goes out of his way to make sure I'm happy. He buys me flowers all the time. We talk all the time and see each other all the time. I just hate how things are when they're bad bc they can be horrible and he's much more stubborn than me. He doesn't like to take owenership for things he does wrong. He doesn't like to apologize. Me on the other hand , I'm the opposite. But like I said , when things are good they're great. Sometimes I have to ignore him though when he's being an ahole or turn down going to spend the night bc I just don't need him thinking its ok. He I feel like is an ahole purposely , like he knows what to do to get under my skin and will push all those buttons. Idk why , myself as a Taurus would never.


Hes an April Taurus and I'm a May Taurus. Just want to know some of you guys' experiences if anyone is currently with one. I really care for mine and hope one day to marry. But I can see this being a long wait , he's got kids , a lot of priorities with stability and a baby mother thats a problem causer that he doesn't want me to cross paths with even though one day we will have to bc he feels its not going to be pleasant and he doesn't want to deal with whatever bs she may bring forward from she and I meeting. I guess he's trying to avoid it but I'm like you can't forever.

How direct are you when it come to the confrontation?

Did he get riled up easily even you brought your concern to him?


Gonna be honest, this ain't healthy.
Well I have come to the realization that he is just super sensitive. So I approach it very gently and he STILL reacts the same. Its childish. Idk if its something from his past that makes him like this but I just get anxiety anytime I need to talk to him about certain things. I really want us to talk to a therapist but hes like no , I don't believe in that -_-

It is indeed childish of him. That actually got you have to walking eggshell on him even approach the serious discussion.


The thing is you can't fix or change him, but you can change for yourself. I don't mean to adapt his life style since he's not willing to solve the relationship as his ego need to be protected. The action speaks louder than words.

I'm not ok with feeling like I have to walk on eggshells. I'm not looking to change him either but I would feel hopeful about our relationship doing better in the communication area if he'd at least agree to a couples therapy. I mean he's not listening to me so maybe he'll listen to someone else. He is sooooo stubborn tho. I just know it'll bring some light to things just getting some kind of advice or hearing things from an outside perspective.

I have a lot of things to day about this. I'll start with that I'm always so hopeful for this match to work out (bull and bull) and I'm always rooting for the Taurus male in general. Unfortunately, I always read such cringy and terrible things about them and it is truly disheartening that in fact they can be such aholes. With that being said, I have no idea why mine seems so evolved and how we can get along so seemlessly. Maybe I'm just as much of ahole? Idk.


My relationship with my bull hasn't always been easy and I can tell you why that is. I use to be very "expectant". I expected him to act a certain way, and do things and say things that I thought were completely logical. "Why can't I see you every night?" I "expect" an extravagant over the top love 2 weeks into us getting to know each other (eh, shudder at the immaturity on my behalf). With the help of a lot of people here (most @jeane) I realized the error of my ways. I didn't see him for who "HE" was, and instead my idealized version of him.

Luckily for me, my boyfriend never one time said he wanted to break up. I would panic and say "we should just break up, because I don't treat you the way you deserve yadda yadda yadda". One day about 6 months into our relationship he said " G, you're the one always trying to leave. And I'm still here just trying to make it work".

Basically from there forward I have learned to communicate and work together as a team and as jeane once said your partner is your Ally not your enemy. Or something like that.


I had to do a lot of changing and growing up. With his help. And vise versa. We really do compliment each other and everyday are becoming better versions of ourselves.


Anywho what am I saying? Idk I ramble. But I think maybe you and your partner need to start truly looking at each other for who they are. Have a little grace and understanding, communicate even if he shuts down, communicate in a caring way. I do agree he sounds immature and unevolved but you also sound older than I and my mate (30/28) so it sounds like he won't change easily, if at all. Try not to anger, give yourself time and space if you do anger.

You are a little general in your comment. He is "an asshole, gets under my skin"...but how?


My feelings about this relationship right now aren't great, but I also dont think it's doomed. I think y'all can still work on it and make it work.


Also as a Taurus I know I can push...and with a male bull, it is almost IMPOSSIBLE to move them, unless they want it. I just give playful little remearks now to try and ease my bull into the right direction....

I wish I could give you more advice and tell you a fool proof plan, but like I said, idk why we work.
