WHEW!! I made it without being totally bias since my EH is one. Needless to say, I won't ever date one again. Aries and Taurus are just oil and water!!!
Poetic by frugal do you mean CHEAP????? I'm semi seeing a Taurus right now and when I say semi he doesn't know it yet but he is on his way out the door. We are having communication issues and a deal breaker for me is when a person says they are going to do something I expect it to be done and if you can't then just say so....don't come too me with half *** excuses or trying the Jedi mind trick like it was never spoken about....
Girl you making me itch bringing back bad memories
Yeah unfortunately this was him....pretty much all of the time. It also drove me crazy because I would quote our previous conversation, and he would just say "what you mean... and then repeat exactly what I said!!" I think Blkbeauty referred to them as sloowwwww. Yes they are, some times because they are intelligent, they lack in the common sense dept.
And by frugal, I do mean cheap and tight with their money. Don't get me wrong, they will spend on you. But don't get used to it.
Disclaimer: this is the one and only Taurus man I ever date so I'm really, really trying not to be bias. My mom is a Taurus, so they are good people. I think some traits waiver, I guess. My mom's b'day is in May, his is April.

OMGoodness! I'm dating a Taurus now. Communication is a huge problem. He internalizes everything and "doesn't see the point in talking about it". It's kinda scary bc I know once you push a Taurus there it can be hell, so I don't need him building all this stuff up. On the flip side, he's very ambitious, family oriented, loves to cuddle, and loves kids.He can be really sweet, sent me my favorite flowers the third day I knew him... Besides I'm a cancer and our signs match perfectly. So, I'm still working on it...
Ah, the joys of being with a bull.
My husband is a Taurus. I am a Cancer. My nickname for him is Hitler. He and my husband share a birthday. (Yep, Hitler was a Taurus, not an Aries. Which just goes to show you how crazy they can get when they take their ideals too far.)
This is the most stable, yet most volatile relationship I have had. On the pro side, my DH is loyal. When I say I'm not worried about him cheating, I mean that. I really don't think he has a philandering bone in his body. He has more to worry about from me, to be honest with you. He's affectionate. He's not afraid to show me he loves me. He's dependable, and an all around nice guy. He has goals, and I know my future with him is set.
They are secret freaks. Always on, always ready for sex. Don't expect like...super duper passion. Tauruses are practical, fixed. But they will do anything to please you and are very sensual. They also catch on quick. I done looked at my DH many a time and been like "Where you learned that from? You cheating on me? " And he's just like ""
Now the cons. You know that 80% he is nice, sweet, and affectionate? Well, the other 20% I'm being verbally abused. I've been called every name in the book when he gets riled up. Every time we argue, divorce discussion soon follows because it's that bad.
Thing is, I know what sets him off. He doesn't like to be pushed. He won't discuss something until he is ready. I can't function until the cards are on the table so I pick at him to discuss our issues until he explodes. I think that trait of his is BS. If we have a problem, I'm not waiting until 2 weeks from now for a half-azzed apology.
He's like Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde with his temper. He turns into the coldest, most evil, mean jerk in the world when he loses his temper. I really threatened to leave him if he kept it up. We've been to counseling and all that. Things are much, much better.
He is cheap. Not frugal, cheap. This is another issue. If I bought a $5 polyester shirt from Rainbow, I am given the screwface and asked where I got that from, how much was it, and don't I have 3 more in the closet just like it. He has been cussed out many a time over this, especially since I work for a living and don't depend on his money for anything. We now have a rule in place where he's not allowed to ask me how much anything costs. If he slips up, he knows not to expect an answer. I'm not two, and he's not giving me an allowance. *********.
Remember when I said I know my future is set? It's the present that is an issue. He has goals, but is slow and lazy and expect to wait forever for him to do anything. Dress, wake up, eat, figure out what they want to do in life, don't expect a proposal any time soon...it's not that they don't want to marry you. They just don't see the point in doing it right now. They are pepetually waiting for a better time to do everything.
So cheap, sporadic anger problems, and they will not be pushed, prodded or rushed into anything. Otherwise, you have a good man on your hands. I've been told numerous times that I'm good because they would never tolerate some stuff I put up with. Honestly, you won't get anyone perfect in a relationship and I have my faults too. I accept his faults because behind them all he really is a good husband and he tries to make me happy.
I love my DH very much, despite him driving me up the wall a lot of the time.

They are DETAILED oriented people. They pay TOO much attention to the details in life and not the big picture.

Bingo! we are very passive aggressive. We believe in making you pay once we feel as tho' you have crossed the line. We'll go from 0 to 180 quick and snap-crackle pop on your a**. We're mean by nature but our personalities come across as being authentic and sweet when we're really bullheaded.
This is because they are detailed oriented people. They live within and since they are so detailed, it takes time for them to comprehend a normal conversation.
This is so true. We hear it at all and while the conversation has moved on we're sitting there processing it all. :scratchch Wondering how it all fits or make sense. We can be totally offended but you'll never know.

Dang girl...you got us down to a science. Super Freak all day. Ready to jump your bones on spot
I'll admit my temper is bad. Once you push me there I don't care if I'm going to jail or hell there is no calming us down. I believe we have clear folx style of anger, well at least that is what SO tells me. I get mad and yell stuff like I hate u, or go away.

I read this to a certain Taurus man (Irrelevant ex ) I know and he said to tell you ladies this: "IM NOT CHEAPPP!!!"
He really is not cheap well not with me and still not ( We are friends now with the you are mine thing going on on his part)
Honestly Starian you are so on point. We use to fight a lot and the name calling ie I was eternally dubbed the flipping (really the other f word) Ice Queen. Then I layed him to the side because I believe in respect. Now he is Mr. " Love is respect". But lawd getting him to apologize is like watching paint dry. He of course will be the first to demand one.
They are honest and faithful. Lawd can we say freak. I could handle it Im scorpio. Just as brooding. They say we are the perfect match Scorpio and Taurus. Many days I wondered.
I can agree here. My Taurus "friend" can cook everything from scratch. He is very responsible and financially stable. Loves family and communicates very well. We've been friends for 9 years and I have brushed him off romantically several times. After many blunders in my love life, he and I still talk and I am wondering the possibilities. That is why I came to read this thread. I am a Sagittarius so we'll see.erplexedI am Aries and I have problems with Taurus Men This is all I attract. My EX/FH of 4 years is a Taurus. With me they are the most dependable men, also they can cook keep a clean house always making money. I will marry a Taurus man. They know what they want. They do not let go.
Pretty accurate. I have 2 brothers, 2 friends, and an ex-best friend who are all tauruses.Stubborn (some Taureans aren't as much as others), over think somethings too much, set in their ways, frugal. Generally get along with people.
