I would appreciate some insight or input on my current situation. So I work with a taurus at my college. I myself am a Virgo. And anyway, summer student employees must do volunteer work for the college as part of their contract. We met through an event and he immediately seem to want to talk to me. One time I was having an off day and another co-worker who is a girl offered to give me a hug and he came over and declared that it should be a group hug so he could hug me as well.
After the four day event was done our little group wanted to go out for drinks together and I didn't want to go but he kept pushing until I agreed.
We talked most of time by ourselves. And he paid for my drinks. We then started having lunch together every day in our group and he asked me to be on his radio show to which I declined because I couldn't get out of my office so he said that it could happen another time. He is always very flirty with me and always sits near me. He is always trying to give me hugs or give fives whenever he can. He makes really interesting comments like one time I said I wasn't sure if I would ever want to get married and he sparked up with "I could change your mind about that". or will make remarks about how he wants to cuddle with me or how we sound like an old married couple.
People that eat lunch with us thinks he likes me and tell me so, so one time I got up the courage and asked him for coffee in the afternoon as a break from work. He agreed and we went and he asked me about my future school plans and such and told me he wouldn't see me the next day as he would be off campus but would be coming to our lunch group when he was back. Then the next day when he was not supposed to be there, he showed up at my office "just to say hi" which I thought was really sweet.

Whenever he flirts with me I always flirt back and I love our energy and the way we communicate with one another. I really do like him and would love to get to know him better but I'm not sure if he really does like me or if he is just being amicable because the day he came back for lunch he invited our friend to the movie while I was sitting right there and no one asked me if I wanted to go. I was kind of upset about this. I also asked him for coffee later that afternoon but he ignored my message then replied after he had gotten home saying that he didn't get good reception in his office to which I joked back "It's okay, if you didn't want to have coffee with me, I understand!" solely because I wanted a little reassurance (Virgo worry) and he read it and didn't reply. He wasn't at work the next day and I haven't heard from him since. I feel like maybe he just isn't that into me and I'm reading things wrong.

I'm trying so hard to be patient but it's hard when he's so funny and sweet hehe. I guess I'll just go back to being friendly and flirty and wait for him to come on his own terms.

Maybe I am just being silly and trying to rush things. I'm not the jealous type, but I am the insecure type. I feel as though I'm just another pretty face to him sometimes. Sorry for unloading. Maybe I should just forget about it lol

I watched my Taurus brother do almost exactly this to my bff when they first met/started dating..

Even the going out with other women thing. Until he was SURE that my bff wanted to be with him, he was still seeing other women. Then one day, he came to me and told me he couldn't stop thinking about her no matter who he was with, what he was doing. "I'm in love," he said. But he wasn't sure about HER feelings and wanted to know my opinion. Considering that I had just watched her cry her eyes out over him 2-3 days prior to that because she thought he was out with another woman..I was sure of her feelings

He dropped the rest of them like bad habits after that conversation we had..

And I have to agree with the others, it sounds like this guy really likes you. I think they (Taurus men) just need time to accept the fact that you really do like them back. Don't be afraid to show it. I think your idea of "going back to friendly and flirty" is a great idea, I'd just suggest being more flirty than "friendly." Otherwise Taurus guy might not think you're interested in more than friendship. All the eagerness he had to get in a group hug, just to be able to touch you, give that back to him!

*edit* I wanted to add, that after the slow, and albeit, a little painful beginning, my bff and brother have been in a relationship for almost 5 years now and have an amazing little boy together who will be 3 at the end of August..
