Taurus man how do you feel about Male Competition?
This topic was created in the Taurus forum by Parkourler on Monday, February 3, 2020 and has 9 replies.
Hi,
How do you handle Competition when you made up your mind about a Woman? Every Taurus man is different, some suddenly turn into Aries beast mode, other dgaf,
what about you? Some are really emotionally invested when they are interested in one, and they can resent and hate the Competitors , what about you?
what about perceived male competition if you are already in a relationship?
If I’m just getting to know someone, its to be expected that I’ll be compared to others. If we’ve been talking for a while, I really like the person, and I let them in/open up to them, its because I feel we have something unique – some form of special chemistry, connection, etc. I usually just assume it’s a mutual thing based on my read of the person, their continued desire to hang/talk, etc. If I find out there’s someone else in the picture at that point, I would just suppose she isn’t as into me, as I am into her (or as I am into me lol), and just drop it,....then probably just keep them as a friend. I’d put zero effort into competing or winning someone over. If you show someone what you’re all about, and there’s still ambivalence there, its probably just not strong enough chemistry to be worth pursuing IMO.
Posted by MareInfameI ignore or I get quickwitted. I am shy so there is not much I can do. My Stoneface and awkward silence when I bump into the guy shortens every conversation, which is a blessing in disguise if there is tension . I try to ignore the competition and do more cool stuff with the girl.Posted by Parkourler

You are right,we taurus like beauty, how can everybody back off if you are trying to get the hot women? Cause they have always have tons of admirerers so that is inevitable.
Posted by tizianii get that. but to be frank, that would still annoy me at my now undisclosed age because her focus is on appearances and not wanting to be seen as different.Posted by MareInfamePosted by tizianiPosted by MaddestofHattersPosted by tizianiPosted by MaddestofHatters
The thing about competition is it can become only about winning..... auctions are full of people spending too much money for shit they never really wanted, just because of competition.. people do that with people, also.
That's why I have always stayed away from that type of energy.
The things the Amber Heards will do to try to maintain their "perceived value" on the market when a relationship is over has never been to my taste.
I'm guilty of just wanting the win. Then after you've won you realize the real thrill came from her looks and the competition. Wasnt any deeper than that.
Personally, when I find myself wanting to improve in areas and retard in others in order to mesh, that's when I know i actually like someone.
I hear you there. My issue is I'm stubborn to social conventions. The challenge for me when I like someone is to mellow out.
Why? Do you get hyper?
I get hurt, I take it personally when I really don't need to.
I remember when I was with an Aries, my first long term relationship. Summer is coming and she's wanting to book a summer holiday together. She picks out this feature in some magazine... Elle or Cosmo, one of those. And says we should go to the Grand Canaries.
But she said "because everyone else is talking about taking a trip with their boyfriend"
Had she just not said that, I probably would have booked it then and there lol But as soon as she said it, the stubborn side kicked him. I'm asking her 'why? but why do YOU personally want to go?" and I'm thinking why the hell are we going to do something just because everyone else is doing it?
That was the early twenties me. But me today would just say, hey it's a holiday, great weather, company you enjoy, it's a win. Just book it.click to expand
then again, i assume she was in her early twenties too and that's the sort of shit you worry about at that age.

Competition is so weird.
I dont want to be AWARE that I am competing.
Does that make sense?
I'm aware that people have options, I just want to be kept in the dark about it. I dont want it to be in my face and I won't put my dating life in your face.
Dating is competition sport.
Competition gets ugly when it's in your face and you're made aware of it. Then insecurity sets in and you wanna either win or be the decision maker. Dont nobody wanna be the loser.

I do not care for competition.
I "hope" (Sorta like passive aggression) she is impressed with me but try to pretend I'm not in competition with anyone.
If another male presents themselves and she is okay with that then I just step aside and fade back. I always pretend that if a person is interested in me that I shouldn't have to actively compete. If you like me you do. If you don't like me you don't regardless of my efforts.

Ok, giving this another shot! Hopefully it makes sense. This is the MOST confusing Taurus I have ever met. She speaks in Riddles, and often wants me to believe what she says vs what something looks like, because she doesnt see it as I do....

Have you ever had a friendship who you've witnessed treating others w disrespect? Did that change your perception of him/her? Would you feel like it's your place to address it? Is disrespect towards OTHERS, a deal breaker for your friendship?
