Betray them and its game over.I have a lot of Taurus friends. Some how we get soooooo well alone, they get a kick of my hyper active mind but never say anything negative about it. I would get them moving and they would ground me when I get too annoying lol...!

I know right.. Well he has 2 sides, one is a child the other is a wise man. He confuses me with what he wants IP: Logged |

The younger ones, well, you'd have to determine what their values are and not step on those. Their values could either be based on real principles or could be the whim of their emotions. Taurus gets a bad rap for not really being a feeling sign but Taurus is the moat likely Earth sign to react based on feelings.
Took the words out of my mouth! I dated a Taurus Sun a few years ago and honesty was big to him. Everything needed to be done properly and with care. and stability is important as well. Taureans love security and when you threaten them in some way, then that is where they will get a little upset. Respect though would be more of lying, deceit, stealing, and things of that nature.

Well met!! I have Pisces moon too so no need to explain to me

He never had any respect for you at all so there was no respect for him to lose. But maybe now he does...though he'll lose it again if you ever take him back.

^ Hun, you don't find him asking you for nudes repeatedly after telling him no disrespectful?Then just tossing you aside when you didn't give in? To me that sounds like a man who doesn't give a damn about you at all & is iust trying to use you to self-serve himself. He sounds like a jack-ass you'd do better without. IP: Logged |

See I hate when people say "you don't know the whole story".. Well duh of course not! You're only presenting a fraction of the situation, so that's all we have to go on. You sound like you're just making excuses for him & that's fine. Like I said I'm sure he'll be back & you readily accept him with open arms, until he acts like an ass again & then just reapeat the cycle again & again for the next 700 hundred days. Well I wish you good luck with that.. IP: Logged |

We've never been together.. For me nothing to take him back, he never was mine I chased him for 10 months, he's finally giving in, he wrote me 'i love you' on valentines.. Now he acts like this IP: Logged |

Have you been flirting in a sexual manner? He might think you are leading him on as we are straightforward and that would explain perhaps the blocking as if you've done something wrong. And in that case it's not as much treating you as a sex object as not finding congruency in what's said and done that might explain the reaction. But like others have said taurus men aren't averse to seeing what you're about and treating you as a toy IF they think that's how you see the situation. Otoh you might be as well waiting for him to unblock you as taurus does respect self-belief and he might understand later better the situation as we do brood on things and can be slow to get it.

Well he SAYS he blocks my email.. I have no way to check this... This happened 2 weeks ago also: He says: im going to block your phone and your email I email him back 2 times He replies: im going to block you now Then i email him back and he still replies... No blocking whatsoever.. Very childish. I have not been flirting in sexual manner with him. Ever IP: Logged |

He just sounds like an immature jerk, what does the rest of his chart look like?

Gabby your response was spot on. Totally right. They can be very possessive. I was with a Taurus for many years and always felt he respected me. He seemed to get a kick out of other man liking me but at the same time he got a bit cross. The only time I think he may have lost respect is when I quit a course I was doing. Taurus do not quit. They plod on! So I don't think he really approved of that!IP: Logged |

His behavior. He only wants one thing from you, nudies and/or sexual favors. When he realized that his "game" wasn't going to get that from you then he had no further use for you. Even now he's gaming you by not blocking you to see if you'll finally break. Call his bluff enough times and he probably will block you since he'll give up in manipulating you to get what he wants (which is nothing to do with you as a person but as a resource that he won't play straight with), though I'm surprised you're still having anything at all to do with him. You can't fix him by supporting him until he sees how much you care, that only works in fiction. IP: Logged |

But why after 2 years he wants that? Why not in the beginning? IP: Logged |

^^Maybe he only now thought he had a shot, could only now do so without risking his job or whatever else made him hesitate before, and/or maybe now his other sources have run dry and he's desperately searching for a new source. Let me see what the 2 years are about first with relevant context before he showed you his real intentions. There's a reason porn is the huge industry it is: male audiences like to see fresh faces (among other things). Grooming a person for sexual favors can be done in a matter of hours to years. It depends on many things. In any case, his actions are essentially "**** or GTFO." (GTFO = Get The **** Out, and the expression is said to be often used by adolescent boys, and older ones who never grew up mentally, online with any female they interact with there, assuming they don't fear real life consequences for doing so.) How can you seriously entertain the notion that he respects you? IP: Logged |

Holy crap, I think I know why! Fifty Shades of Grey. Especially if you said it was hot. In that case it makes perfect sense to me that he'd speak to you that way starting recently and in a matter of speaking he'd be respectful doing so because he reasonably believes that's what you like! (But even if you never mentioned it he could do what a lot of men do and assume all women are the same, and if so many women find Christian's behavior attractive then you would as well and so is imitating him because he thinks that's what you want and he wants to be your fantasy. Maybe he's even one of those "nice guys" who was only nice to you hoping you'd see him as boyfriend material and since that didn't work he's trying the Christian approach instead.) Even without looking for them I read a couple of stories of rapists claiming to be inspired by the movie (a convenient excuse, though he may have actually believed it in the case I'm about to share given that she stripped down to her undies for him before saying no, one reason I dislike how popular the book and movie has gotten with so many saying they like their men that way as it may put others in danger), like this one that I was able to find again: http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/mor ning-mix/wp/2015/02/23/college-student-accused-of-rape-claims-he-was-reenacting-50-shades-of-grey/ Obviously only the most extreme versions are going to be worth the print. I expect cases like yours will be much more common. IP: Logged |

Who is christian? What do you mean with shades of grey? The thing is, i honestly think he's testing to see if im such girl to give him, cause he dislikes these girls.. He's very humble, shy, poetic, artistic, he rather stay at home than to go out party..
Oh wait you're refering to a book, i have not read it or seen a movie with that name, can you enlighten?

The book is a best seller and the movie was huge with a lot of media coverage so no I won't enlighten as you can find out what it's about easy enough and unless he avoids the news (including radio and TV) then I'm sure he's well aware of it. Even if you're right that he doesn't like women like that (and I'm not sure that's the case as plenty of men say that but lie, just as many women do) the book/movie and its popularity may have inspired him to "test" you.But **** him. Even if you're reading him right, who the hell is he to test you after he's known you for two years? How dare he? Respect yourself and block him. IP: Logged |

I generally don't find them very respectful towards women, not 'modern' women anyway. And the Taureans with personal planets in Aries can be prrrretty rude.
