The Taurus man in a relationship
A Taurus man tends to be more self-conscious and reserved around people he is unfamiliar with. This makes difficult for him to meet and socialize with new people. However if he finds a partner who is as loyal as he is, the Taurus man will give everything to strengthen their relationship. Though he is more of an introvert and remains quite, he can sometimes come off to be extremely possessive and jealous in order to protect what he thinks is his own. Apart from this he is very affectionate, romantic and sensual. He likes courting his better half and also expects reciprocation. He is not a daring person but loves the pleasure that lies in the warmth when two bodies come in contact. He’s not much adventurous but definitely not boring as well. Things can become very interesting with the right partner and he is also an athletic lover. He loves to be pampered and has a tendency to become more like his partner’s spoiled son than a lover. He is also very loyal and will do everything in order to keep his partner happy. A Taurus man loves to spend time with family and can be unbelievably good father too. These make him a husband every woman would want to have.
- Taurus and Virgo- Two Earth signs together can be a very boring couple but it is not the case when it comes to Taurus and Virgo. They portray an adorable old fashioned couple who respect each other and value each other’s hard work. Together they are extremely romantic and sweet.
- Taurus and Pisces- They form an amazing pair because they give each other exactly what they need. While Taurus comes up with reasoning and common sense which Pisces can hold onto in the difficult times, Pisces adds imagination and beauty to Taurus’s life.
- Taurus and Capricorn- This is another combination of two Earth signs but it’s a win-win combination as Capricorn works on taking the relationship forward. Their wavelengths match to a great deal and the sensuality also keeps on increasing day by day.
