Attract a Taurus Man

A woman, at some point in time, find herself attracted to a Taurus man—those stubborn, bull-headed men born between April 20th and May 20th. These men are irresistible creatures, and attracting them can be difficult. If you're practical, patient, and feminine, Taurus may be a perfect match for you.

Steps

Nabbing His Attention

  1. Show your femininity. While you need to be strong and confident to gain his respect, he also needs a woman with a definite feminine side. A Taurus man loves to be surrounded by your femininity. He really appreciates beauty, and will expect his woman to be beautiful. If you want to attract him, take the time to look good!
    • And while we're at it, be classy. The Taurean man wants a woman with refined taste -- someone who appreciates good music, good wine, and good art, to name a few. Be sure to dress this way too; you don't want to give it all away too soon!
  2. Get your life in order. A Taurus hates disarray, and won't give in to a messy lifestyle. Show him that this comes naturally to you and he'll be automatically smitten. Taurus are neat, organized, and grounded, they will enjoy if you're likewise.
    • If you invite Taurus to your home, organize it! He'll appreciate your attention to detail in everything—down to your spice racks. He'll notice what lengths you go to to keep your life organized and he'll consider you a kindred soul.
  3. Think practical when it comes to money. These men have an eye for money, and won't accept useless and impractical use of it. If you are sound financially, you can get his attention. He is very practical and knows when his dollar is worth it. And definitely don't be careless with his!
    • That being said, they know when something of quality is worth it. You don't need to cut corners, but do know when certain things are frivolous and unnecessary.
  4. Stay true to yourself. Be truthful to him. He will appreciate your honesty, which is a trait he really wants in a lady. He's not quick to trust, so any lying will not be tolerated in the slightest.
    • Be honest about the image you put forward, too. If you're not clean, you're gonna have to come clean. If you're not super ladylike, don't put up a front. Be you. If he doesn't like it, he doesn't like it. You can't keep up a facade forever; eventually, he will find out. When he does, he won't be happy. So don't act as you are not it in the first place!
  5. Prefer down to earth activities. Taurus men are family men; they prefer to be in the comfort and warmth of their own home, with good food and good company. You will smite his heart if you are a good cook. They are down-to-earth and calm, so avoid making drastic changes or spontaneous plans. Keep it practical.
    • Don't worry about coming off as lame! Have him over for a dinner you made yourself. He'll be impressed by your resourcefulness, your skill, and your femininity. A woman who asks him to dinner who's attractive and competent in the kitchen? That's a win for any man!

Building a Relationship

  1. Make a move. Many mistake the bull for being a bit aloof and cold. It's not that he is unhappy with his surroundings, it's just that he keeps his emotions on the inside and tries to be practical at all times. So he may be interested in you, but you may not know it! You may have to make your move -- or you could be waiting for a while!
    • You don't have to do something super extravagant -- again, inviting him over to dinner would be super impressive to him. And no need to swarm him with your intensity either; a simple cup of coffee will show him you find him intriguing.
  2. Be sensual. A Taurus man loves a cozy, cuddly, inviting atmosphere. He adores staying at home to just be with a woman -- you. Dress subtly alluring in public and more alluring in private. Your Taurus Man will appreciate it, knowing it's just for him.
    • Show him you're physically interested without making too much of a show of it. Graze his shoulders as you pass, lightly massage his arm, keep him aware of your touch until he has no choice but to break out of his cage.
  3. Show some mutual respect. In the end, Taurus wants a relationship where there's mutual respect. The idea is to respect him as a builder -- he'll, in turn, respect you in your own right. Handle conflict with a delicate hand and he'll respond. Taurus are natural leaders and they love to take charge. Guidance and support will work better than confrontation. The Taurean man has enough issues with his own temper, much less anyone else's.
  4. Take your time. A Taurus is slow to change. He likes routine and doesn't like change. If you try to change him, remember, you are angering a BULL! Try to roll with his flow. If you don't understand something, just ask! He'll gladly include you in his routine if you show that you're trying to understand and share in something that matters to him.
    • He likes planning, too. If you're overcome with brilliant ideas, run them by him before you start implementing them. He'll probably be able to bring you back down to Earth and actually get things done!
  5. Be patient. The Taurean man likes to feel out his adventures. He needs to wrap his mind around the factors at play -- and that includes relationships. So with this one, you'll need to put on your patient hat and relax for a bit. Let the relationship grow without pressuring it. If he didn't like you, he wouldn't stick around!
    • This goes for his time, too. Taurus does his routine and he sticks with it. If you interrupt that, he won't be thrilled. If there's something he needs to do, let him do it. Then he'll be all yours when he's finished.

Making It Last

  1. Consider the Taurus's nature. It's important to sit down and be a tad bit realistic. A Taurus is very protective and is often jealous, like his opposite, Scorpio. If your sign happens to be Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, Aquarius, Libra, or Gemini, you may have to forget about getting along with a Taurus, much less attracting him. His overbearing nature will be too stuffy for you. Make sure your sign meshes well with his!
    • If he can handle his bull-headedness, his need for routine, and his need to lead, by all means! This could be a relationship that lasts a very, very long time. But if these are factors that you can't see yourself tolerating long-term, try not to get your heart twisted in a bunch. He can make for a good fling, but little else.
  2. Develop a routine together. Taurus likes his routine and his woman will need to be a part of it. So carve out a space for yourself! Make him part of your routine and vice versa. The deeper ingrained you two become in each other, the harder it'll be to break.
    • This does not, by any stretch of the imagination, mean that you two have to be involved in every aspect of each others' lives. No, no, no. It simply means to have routine hobbies and activities that you two do together that you can depend on. Stir Friday. Bowling league. Saturday morning mimosas. You each still need your own life! But each other has their definite, solid part.
  3. Practice nonviolent communication and work with his ego. Sometimes men can get pretty defensive when it comes to their manhood, and Taurus is no different -- in fact, he may be the cause for this gender stereotype. His pride and ego dominate a large facet of his nature -- if you attack this, he will not be happy. Make sure allow him to lead you on occasion -- he'll love it and love you for it.
    • There are delicate ways to do everything. If you two are fighting, this does not mean backing down and saying, "You're right, honey. I'm sorry." (Unless he is right, of course.) It means saying, "I don't understand what this has to do with that. Can you explain it to me?" With Taurus, a certain amount of tact will get you a long, long way.
  4. Know you may need to draw him out. If you're looking for a man that will shower you with adoration, Taurus isn't it. Sure, he's very capable of being affectionate, but he may take his precious time. If you can muster it, be patient. Show him you're comfortable being caring and demonstrative and he will echo you back.
    • Don't be discouraged if he's not as caring as you'd like him to be. If it's an issue, address it! He'll value your honesty and straightforwardness. Give him a while to come around to the idea. He's worth the wait, you know?
  5. Work on trusting each other. Along with being aloof and slow to make his move, Taurus can be a bit untrusting. He's very much so of the mantra "If you want something done right, you do it yourself." This leaks into his romantic relationships too, where he's used to doing his own thing. However, over time, if you show him you're trustworthy and responsible, he'll see it makes sense to let his guard down. That's when you know you've won Taurus's heart.
    • If you're all these things: honest, practical, diplomatic, and patient—there will be no issue. Trust will just fall into place! Make it clear that your loyalty lies with him and only him; if he trusts you, he'll show it back. That means he's in it to win it!



Tips

  • Have patience. Taurus males are slow movers, and it will take them some time to figure out if you are 'the one' or not.
  • When you know you've done something wrong, apologize; he'll appreciate you more.
  • Taurus men are slow because they are true/loyal lovers. They tend to keep some things in their heart to avoid messing up the moment and losing you. The moment you successfully reach a Taurus man's heart, they will love you eternally.
  • Know about care and attention. Taurus may not be an expressive romantics but they will show you their love with actions rather than promises. When you treat them well, they will notice and appreciate it even when they are quiet about it.
  • Being attractive includes frequent showers, good makeup but not over-done, healthy body, smelling, feeling, looking, and being good.
  • Taurus men are slow and don't like changes; if you were to break-up with a Taurus man, they will still have a soft spot in their heart for you for few good months even if they started dating someone else.
  • Take up art, dance, literature, or theater. Taurus is an artist.

Warnings

  • Try not to play mind games with Taurus men. They will not entertain you. Be honest and direct instead.
  • Communication is very important. Try to communicate with each other to know the best for you and him.
  • Taurus is the most stubborn sign in the zodiac, so don't push or you'll get poked in the behind with his bull horns!
