What is Taurus Really like to Get to Know?

To find out what Taureans are like to get to know, read on:

First impression when you are introduced to a Taurus: Here's a person who isn't going to give a lot of themselves away very quickly. They might give the impression they're being hesitant about their reactions and careful about what they say. As you walk away from them after your first meeting, you might feel you have told Taurus a lot about yourself but you have discovered little about them. This, you will find, is the way of Taurus. Slow but sure.

It may take a few meetings before Taurus will open up to you and you are privileged to be shown their more fun-loving and affectionate side. You will start to realise that essentially they are serious and practical but every once in a while they can be a really good laugh to be with too. Work and other responsibilities will always come first to the Taurus. There will never be any doubt about that. Then after work it is time to play and your Taurean friends and colleagues can be amazingly good fun when they do let their hair down.

How to recognise a Taurus: Ruled by Venus, Taureans enjoy their food and the good things in life; they have a tendency therefore to put on weight. Solid and robust describes those born under this sign. Taurus rules the neck and throat area of the body and Taureans often have quite thick necks or double chins.

Getting to know Taurus: Taureans won't rush at anything and that includes building relationships. They put a lot of thought and planning in what they do and yet there is one thing they tend to rely on a lot and that is their first impressions. This is the contradictory side of their nature. If they decide they don't like someone it will take a very long time for them to change their mind.

Taureans are hugely stubborn and if you think they don't really understand you and this is a relationship worth working on, you will need to have oodles of patience to get Taurus to shatter the idea they have in their mind of you to develop a more realistic impression.

Generally however Taurus is slow to form opinions. They take their time and weigh everything up before making their mind and that's why they're so reliable.

What kind of friend is a Taurus? Taurus is a loyal and trustworthy friend. If they make a promise, they will keep it. Taureans love to touch as everything must feel real to them. That's why you might expect the occasional hug from a Taurus colleague who is suddenly overwhelmed by happiness or success. Their affectionate side often takes people by surprise.

Tips about friendships with Taureans: Security is high on the list of the Taurean's priorities. They're looking for long-term friendships. In romance and friendship, relationships with a Taurus get better with age, like fine wine.
