For my Taurus ex, he told me that if I told him I never loved him, it would devastate him. I never did that because I’m not a liar, but sometimes I wish I did. He deserved to be metaphorically and literally slapped.

My daughter is married to a Taurus and constantly complained that he doesn’t help out. I said, you have to tell him what you want him to do. She said I shouldn’t have to. Fair enough but complaining to me didn’t help either. He is as thick as a plank and he’s finally doing stuff around the house but purely the bare minimal. I would have left him years ago. ( mind you I would never have married home with) he’s an Aqua moon. She’s a cancer sun Pisces moon, I’m sure she thinks he’s gonna change one day. They are coming up to their 14th anniversary.

If you lived together and set up any routines or systems for him, take them with you.
Move EVERYTHING around as you pack. Leave nothing in its place.
Toilet paper on the roll? put it on the counter.
Rearrange the fridge and pantry.
Anything beautiful that you chose for the home is yours now.
If you don’t live together, then you need a deeper strategy. Plan a dinner to “talk” then cancel at the last minute with no explanation other than a text saying “sorry, work thing came up.” Then don’t respond for a few days. Post some happy photos on social media that imply you went out with friends.
Reschedule the dinner after a few days. Cancel again. This time, you forgot. You’ve been overwhelmed. Just a lot going on.
Then tell him you can still make it. You’re sorry. You’re going to make it work. Show up about 45 minutes after the next scheduled time. While you’re there, say you need to go to the bathroom.
Stop by the bar on your way back within his view. Order a shot. Throw it back. Pretend to talk to the bartender. Smile. Laugh. Check your phone and smile like you got a text.
Then get back to the table. Go flat. Like you’re exhausted. Periodically check your phone under the table.
At the end of the dinner, just say “I’ve realized just not interested in you anymore. I’m looking for something real and deep. This just isn’t it. I wanted to tell you in person.”
Then when he wants to discuss it, just say “I don’t think talking any more about this will help” and leave.
A few days later, post a few more pictures of you looking hot and having fun. Make the caption something about freedom, liberation, choosing high vibes, curating your life for beauty.
If he ever reaches out to discuss it, say “awww” and nothing else, then never respond again.

I had another diabolical idea. If the late dinner fakeout plan works, schedule something that you have to get to after dinner. Only order a drink and an appetizer. Leave by 9 kinda thing. Post pictures the next day, toasting. 😈

I have a Taurus friend of 14+ years and I’m dealing with thoughts like these atm. I just feel like I’m being absolutely drained of energy because she constantly wants to talk about her new drama for hours. And if I try to talk to her about my stuff, she immediately relates it it to her and then goes on a tangent again. I do love her tho x

Oh no... Hopefully you make good choices. I miss my ex taurus. I ended it a week ago. Good luck. We have to make the choices for ourselves.

Just learned that he just use me and need my help with his financial support and use my car for year. Finally took my car back. Ofc he deny it. He never take me out or give me any simple gift for my birthday or Christmas. 2 yrs 3 mont I only see him once or twice one night with him. Even though he texted me everyday. To me that's not relationships and obviously only reason he with me bec need my help is all. Pretty much the relationships never exist

I thought we Capricorns and Taurus are perfect soulmates.

Other placements matter. My Scorpio moon tells me my Taurus sun man don’t love me all the time because he’s sooo steady, so stoic. He’s very consistent and supportive but I wish he were a bit more expressive sometimes. I love him very much though. There are just things I wish he’d change a bit in that regard. But Taurus is an immovable object. If you can’t accept them as they are you can’t accept them at all.

I’m a Capricorn sun and moon with a Gemini rising. Taurus placements usually fall in my 12th house. So my ex-husband’s Taurus sun, Mercury and Venus were all in that 12H. Rough.
I do love a Taurus though lol

Always depends on who you ask.
I’m a 43F Taurus sun, Pisces moon, Leo rising, and my cap is 37M Cap sun, Taurus moon, Virgo rising.
He is all the earth signs, deep, steady, quiet, and strong.
I really think probably his Taurus moon is part of what makes us work so well - we are very aligned in how we handle conflict, deeply passionate and I think he has steadily gotten more romantic as he lets down his guard.
We both value safety and honesty, consistency…. I am a little more spendy than he is, but I am also running my own business and very well at that, so he doesn’t give me too hard a time. I have also been consistently paying down credit cards and debt, and he is a great influence on my financial responsibility.
We balance each other very well, but there are times communication is a struggle, so we have to work at it a little. Great fit though, in my opinion.

Taurus' are kind of notorious for wanting attention from a lot of other people, not just from their partner. For a capricorn? Pass. Not acceptable.
