As I have explained in some post before, I am kind of falling for a Taurus guy who works with me. I didn't want this to happen...but it is happening The problem for me is that he has a gf, but according to him, things aren't ok between them. I cannot understand why I have feelings for him, as he has gf. I mean, I have always run away from situations like this  I feel confused because I think I am getting mixed signals from him. Probably, it is because of his personal situation. He behaves like a perfect gentleman, he makes me feel special, even when we are just workmates (becoming friends, we have things in common, etc)...but I cannot figure out his behaviour. My question is, how do Taurus men show affection? What kind of "hints" do they give to show someone they like/love that person? I know this sounds very childish, but it is important for me, as I don't know how to manage the situation. I can be kinda shy and I don't want to be fooled... He has his sun in Taurus, asc in leo (I believe), his moon in Virgo, his venus in gemini, his mercury in Taurus and Mars in Leo. Thank you very much for any feedback! Take care!

I have a friend that is a Taurus male with Venus in Gemini and Asc in Gemini. He is the perfect gentlemen to all the ladies. He fools a lot of women into thinking they are "the one" but he literally has a girlfriend for every day of the week. I must admit he is a charmer. I know venus in gemini likes variety in the other sex and that usually means dating more than one women/man at a time.IP: Logged |

My honey has Mars,Asc/Leo, & his love style is all about fun, he loves his ego stroked, *scratch his fur watch him purr* big pussycat *rrreow* humour & *games* turn him ON.Hmmm, Taurus Sun males I don't know much about, I'd think (being a Tau/Sun Female) he'd be faithful & charming, however it seems this is not always true. I'd keep well away from a man who has a gf, you're setting yourself up for a fall, I mean if he can have an *interest* in you, yet have a gf, doesn't that mean he could do the same to you, if you guys hook up? Good luck anyways! IP: Logged |

Hmmmm...Taurus men. Love 'em, and hate 'em. I had a long term relationship with a Taurus that also started at work, although he was single at the time that I met him. Taurean men seem to be one of the signs that I attract most often. I was mad about this guy, but fidelity was never his strong suit. He loved the pursuit. I can tell you that if this guy you're talking about is with someone else right now, he probably wouldn't take a relationship with you very seriously either. You would be setting yourself up for heartache. The Taurus I dated cheated on every girlfriend he ever had, including myself, the one before me, and the one after me. Also, I've steered clear of relationships in the workplace since then. It adds a lot of unnecessary stress to a relationship. If you're fighting it can make work extremely difficult. I work with another Taurus right now, and last year about this time there was a small but distinct window where we could have started dating. We were flirting a lot every day, and I knew that all I had to do was make a move. I decided not to go down that path again, and I shut off the flirtations immediately. He's been seeing someone for about six months now and seems very happy. I know I made the right decision. The choice is yours, but my opinion would be to try and take the high road here. You don't want to set yourself up for heartache. -CC IP: Logged |

I say run, like you have never run before!  Ahhh, such charmers, so "woman-oriented..." I too, fell for a Bull with a Venus in Gemini and gf "problems." But finally stopped the friendship because of the disrespectful nature of his treatment of his gf and our friendship. Re-member, they are fixed and changes take a long, and I mean a VERY long time to occur with Bulls, but you need not be waiting around to see what happens with the gf situation while his fixity is working itself through.... I embrace the ancient astrology of elements and symbolism and ponder upon the Bull for a moment....They ARE herd animals, comfortable being in the company of cows, horses, goats, geeezzzz... even birds sit upon them....... I think mine was just trying to keep his herd together........ Terri IP: Logged |

I can't stand this one Taurus guy I know. I hope I don't end up punching him one day or something. His attitude sucks big time. I don't know his birth time, but his chart is nothing but a whole bunch of T-Squares.This all coming from I'm a female Taurus... lol IP: Logged |

My first real "relationship" was with a married Taurus male that "was unhappy in marriage"It was one of the most intense of my life. THE hardest to get over. When they finally divorced, he found ANOTHER woman to marry (NOT ME). And still called me wanting some love over the phone!!!!! I drew the line and finally felt bad for him. Mr. Married: taurus: sun leo: moon taurus: mercury taurus: venus taurus: mars leo: jupiter aries: saturn Otherwise, I am a virgo with a taurus moon that finds taurus men extremely sexy. I have found that they are very comfortable with their "female" side, but still extremely masculine in their ways. Good luck to you, but be wary until he is broken up, otherwise it is too complicated. IP: Logged |

I agree with Hippichick about the fixity love that word, of his nature, he will take forever to let go of his current gf, unless she's been unfaithful (then he'd probably drop her like a hot stone) if the males are anything like this Tau fem anyway. I can't abide dishonesty in any form.Plus really do you want a "stone" for a lover? lol, a stone that only knows three words, hmmmph, grrrump & Food? not sure if the first two are actual words, lol, but I use them sometimes Even with my Merc/Gem  To me it's a perfectly good answer, which doesn't go over well with my Aqua man. I'd ditch that dude and find someone else to play with, someone who is NOT in a relationship, someone who is free to love you, have some self-respect and realise you are worth worshipping.

Heeheehee, that's cute. I'm imagining a bird sitting on top of my dad's head. Well, one might as well sit on me, too. (Anyway, back to Dreamybecca's post. ) IP: Logged |

TeologistReally!!! I grew up on a farm. Have you ever observed cows??? Gosh, the symbolism of astrology really floores me!!! I have images from the dairy farm in Ohio of the cows laxidazically meandering their way through their green comfy fields, at their own pace---where I grew up. Now in South Texas there are these birds, seem of costal nature to me, that actually sit on the cows here. And how cow-like is that??? "Don't mind if you sit on me.... I will just move, (slowly) or try to swat you away with my wiry tale when I AM READY....." Posted another analogy to this earlier, will try to find. Would not be so into astrological symbolism if it were not SO easy to see myself as the Fish swimming hither and yonder in warm waters-------(Pisces sun me be!!!) Terri IP: Logged |

Damn, from all the Taurus men I've seen in my lifetime (and really, it's not that long, but it's enough), they have all turned out to be pretty much unfaithful to their wives. I mean, I've seen them stay with them for years, but all of them have moldered and lead to divorce because the Taurus man has been a cheater. It's funny because they're all kind of major corporate types and business oriented, social butterflies, and have the aura of a charmer. It's like they turn 40 and have a mid-life crisis, then decide to become sugar daddies! They would appear to be pretty successful in their career, financially, socially, and even with their family - at first - until they ruin it! I could never get my hands on their exact birthdates to analyze their charts but they're all Sun in Taurus men, and that's for certain. IP: Logged |

I'm one of those airy birds that likes to hang out in the cool, green pasture atop a bull's head. Maybe they are unfaithful because they marry the first female that catches them... which is pretty easy since they move so slow. Then they are too faithful to dump her, she has to dump them. I'm unsure because I've never chased one in an effort to catch him. I just fly low and sometimes sit on their backs. It's very peaceful. Maybe one will catch me someday.

Hi Becca. I'm going to give my 2 cents regarding the questions you asked, but before I do that I'm going to give some unsolicited advice and say that you should firmly plant this man in the "Friend Zone" in your brain. I know he told you that he and his gf are having problems, but "having problems" does not mean the relationship is over. In fact, it could go on and on (and considering this is a taurus you're dealing with, the relationship will probably go on and on and on and...you get the picture). There's no sense in falling for him before he's available because that just has heartbreak for you written all over it.However, just b/c this particular taurus of yours is bad news at the moment, that doesn't mean that he always will be or that you won't come across some other taurus you like, so on to your question... "How do Taurus men show affection?" Well, before my taurus and I got together we were friends/co-workers for about a year and a half and he was the kind of friend who I knew would always have my back. Like, he would specifically look for ways to help me out and make my life easier for me. Also, we talked and joked around a lot. And he used to buy me little things, nothing major, just little joke gifts or he'd surprise me with my favorite gum or candy on my desk (this sounds so elementary school! ). We also used to draw each other funny pictures, tell dirty jokes, play jokes on each other. He wasn't touch feely with me at all, and thank god because his touch is electric and I would've jumped into the relationship way too soon if he had given me a taste before the timing was right! But the few times we did have physical contact--hugs on birthdays, at office parties--he always gave really good hugs but I never took that personally, he's just naturally a good hugger. I would guess that every sign of the zodiac has a similar percentage of male players. But I consider my guy a gentleman (...in the living room, and a bobcat in the bedroom ).

I'm glad I found this site, I've been reading the posts here for a couple weeks, waiting to feel compelled to post. I have questions about a taurus male that I've liked since I was 17 (I'm now 42) and I'm a virgo. I've been a Linda Goodman reader since I was 14 & first read Sun Signs. The only thing I can surmise about Taurus men is that they are extremely stubborn, getting them to change is rather like trying to move the Rock of Gibraltar. I keep tryin'.------------------ "it was so naughty of him not to wipe" Taurus man-Virgo Woman IP: Logged |

Dreamgirl - You sound a bit like me. The Taurus I mentioned earlier is still in and out of my life. I made the decision to contact him again after a little over a year - don't know yet if that was good or bad. He hasn't changed. He won't change - ever. It's been almost 7 years and he's the same guy at (almost) 30, that he was at 23. He's a self-professed selfish ba$tard and an egomaniac, but I love the man and always have...even though he cheated as well as the others mentioned here. I'm trying to subscribe to the idea that I'd rather have him as a friend than nothing at all.Funny thing I wanted to share with you all, are some excerpts from a couple of my recent email exchanges with him. He demonstrates BEYOND doubt, the quintessential Taurus male. He's got sun, moon, and merc in Taurus. Venus conj. Mars in Aries - talk about extremities!!! I apologize for his profanity, but he IS a New Yorker...through and through. Quotes from a Taurus Male: "Been following the same routines for so long at this point that change seems almost impossible - like I wouldn`t know WTF to do with myself if I weren`t just following certain patterns I`ve become accumstomed to, know what I mean?" "I`m a selfish ba$tard and an egomaniac...there`s no doubt about that. But overall I`m pretty comfortable with my relative goodness as a person, especially when I see the self-serving co*ksuckers all around us on a daily basis that screw over everybody and their mother to get ahead in the world." "I`ve reached the point where I`m pretty sure I`m never going to love what I do...so I might as well try my best to get some financial security while I`m taking it in the a*s for the blue who*e, or whichever other who*e I end up working for." I was so tempted to respond to those with, "God, you're such a Taurus!" LOL... He can be the biggest horse's a$s in the entire world, but he also probably knows me better than anyone, and has remained my friend through a whole lotta crap. Usually it was his fault, but I love drama. My Cap side is trying to see him with $$$ signs in my eyes, as I may have a use for him in the not-so-distant future for a business venture that I'm trying to pursue. The chemistry between the two of us when we're together is not only magnetic, but it's actually entertaining to other people...so I may be able to use him. He knows I love him, but a relationship with him is impossible. True Taurus though - all the way. IP: Logged |

I left my psychotic, bi-polar, abusive Taurus ex-fiance and never EVER looked back. Player didn't even begin to describe him because he had some unnatural addiction to sex and manipulation. He had several HARSH aspects that made him prone to being one messed up man. It wasn't easy getting rid of him because he tried for almost a year to get in contact with me, even so much as to try and ask me to marry him again and tell his family we were back together.Then he found out that I had moved on and married a sexy Leo (who also out ranks him in the Army and basically said if the moron keeps trying to contact me against my wishes he'll be out of the Army before he could say K9 cop). LMAO..... I can't say that all Taurus men are like that because I have met very different types from the very driven and gentleman type to the greedy, possessive player type. I will say this though... THEY ALL TAKE FOREVER to MAKE UP THEIR MINDS... Even Taurus risings are like that LOL... Nope.. this Sag, if single, would stay very far away from a Bull-boy again. IN fact, when I was single I was at a local pub where my Scorp friend and I met a few guys. The one noticed my Archer charm on my necklace and asked "Oh no, are you really one of those Sagittarian ladies" I said "why are you going to tell me you're a Taurus?" We just laughed and agreed to end our conversation, but not before he informed me that he never got over the Sagittarian woman that broke his heart in a million pieces... like FIVE years ago. Hee hee.....

I would REALLY like to hear some positive things about Taurus guys....So maybe then I will know I was not all that off mark!  From what I have heard, they are alot like my ex "friend" <sigh> However, I do know of one here, though, that is a good one, skilled, knowledgeable, thoughtful and very smart!!! HD  T IP: Logged |

Hey this is a pretty cool board I think-! Glad I found it. Linda Goodman has always been so mysterious to me, and so little seems to be known about her, so great to know others have an interest in her. I think Taurus people do have good qualities, the women are "rocks" in a good way, to the Cap. girl-who replied to me-I am a little like a cappy-born sept. 12th in the virgo-cap decan & the taurus male May 12, and all our major planets are trined, it explains my thing for him I guess? But there's something cozy about this old taurus guy and I'll always wonder about him. But he's got some Aries in him, makes him a conquerer -seemingly more interested in climbing Mt. everest than domestic bliss, but I'm a virgo female, and I can't be conquered. ------------------ "it was so naughty of him not to wipe" Taurus man-Virgo Woman IP: Logged |

Hippiechick - "Earthy masculinity" and sensuality are definitely a BIG part of it. And for some reason, though I hate to admit it, I happen to LOVE their traditional views of women and chauvenistic tendencies...is that insane???IP: Logged | |
