How to Attract a Taurus Guy

  1. Taurus is ruled by Venus, which affects how much a Taurus man appreciates beauty. If you want to attract him, display your femininity by learning how to dress well . Dressing classy celebrates your feminine side while showing him that you’re someone with elegance and style. Specific ways to let him see your softer side follow: [1]
    • Wear classic, quality-made clothing that compliments you.
    • Add sophisticated touches to your overall look, like a flower in your hair, a scarf, or a delicate pair of earrings.
    • Avoid looking unkempt or sloppy, even when you’re not in the mood to dress up.
    • Steer clear of flashy, overly trendy, or loud clothing that shows too much skin. A Taurus man prefers to keep that side of things in the bedroom.
  2. Let him know that you’re interested by appealing to his senses like sight, smell, and touch. A Taurus man becomes attracted to people by looking at and listening to them, as well as noticing their scent. He might also come to associate you with his favorite foods or a gentle touch you offer him. [2]
    • Try your best to be seen by him—this may mean going to a place where you know he hangs out, or walking in full view of him wherever he is if you’re trying to attract a Taurus man sexually.
    • Wear an alluring perfume to engage his sense of smell. A feminine scent with herbaceous, earthy, and floral notes that isn’t too strong or bold can make him want to get closer to you.
    • Grazing his shoulder as you pass by or lightly massaging his arm keeps him aware of your touch until he feels ready to approach you; hugging him is also a subtle way to strengthen your bond with him, one touch at a time.

  3. A Taurus male is the perfect example of the saying, “The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.” He prefers to be in the comfort and warmth of home, with good food and good company. If you’re a good cook and find out what he loves to eat the most, you’ll appeal to his down-to-earth and calm nature. [3]
    • Plan a romantic dinner at home. 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, is a win for anyone.
    • If you can’t cook, bring him his favorite food or snack as a gift. You can say, “I was just at this new taco place, and I know how much you love birria tacos, so I grabbed an extra one for you to try.”
  4. 4
    Show him you’re confident by making the first move. Flirt with a Taurus man in a way that doesn’t leave him guessing about how you feel. Many mistake a Taurus man for being aloof and cold when he might simply be shy. A Taurus male often keeps his emotions on the inside to remain practical at all times. He may be interested in you, but you may not know it. Being confident lets him know you’re into him too. [4]
    • For example, walk right up to him and say, “I just took a class in French pastry. Would you like to try some of my newest creations? I won’t lie; they’re pretty amazing.”
    • Avoid slouching or fidgeting with yourself too much when talking to him. Look him straight in the eye and smile, so he can see your self-confidence in action.
    • If you’re nervous, use deep breathing or a short meditation by yourself before you speak to him, so he sees you at your best.
  5. He’ll appreciate your authenticity, which is a trait a Taurus man looks for in a woman. This doesn’t mean trying to become the woman you think he wants; it means being completely yourself and acting sincerely toward him. It can apply to how you present yourself, how you dress, and the way you have conversations. Be proud of who you are and he’ll be sure to notice. [5]
  6. It’s important to say the right things at the right time to a Taurus man. Your compliments work best when they’re genuine, sweet, and thoughtful. Ideas on how to compliment a Taurus guy are ahead: [6]
    • “You look really handsome today—I love what you’re wearing.”
    • “Has anyone ever told you that you’ve got a gorgeous speaking voice?”
    • “Wow, you have amazing taste in cologne. Can I spend the day sitting next to you?”
    • “You have such a supportive nature. I bet your friends truly appreciate you.”
  7. A Taurus likes being in control of things (and can be stubborn enough to prove it). If you show him that you understand and appreciate who he is by balancing being strong and capable with deferring to him when needed, he’ll respond positively! Avoid being pushy, as it might make him feel like you’re not interested in knowing more about him. [7]
    • If he asks you out, let him choose the location or activity for the date. He’ll enjoy sharing what he considers meaningful experiences with you.
  8. One thing a Taurus isn’t attracted to is a person who is playing games and being dramatic. If he associates you with a sense of calm and stability, he’s more likely to find you attractive. If and when you need to express any emotional concerns, do it with a logical and mature attitude, so he doesn’t feel like you’re upsetting his sense of harmony. [8]
    • Extend being practical to matters of money. If he sees you overspending or being careless about your finances, he may get turned off. If you show him how fiscally responsible you are, he’s more likely to show interest in you.
  9. The Taurus man may only show his feelings when he’s sure of them—he hates to feel rushed. A Taurus guy needs to wrap his mind around the factors at play, especially in connection with relationships. Try to relax and show patience with him as he gets to know you better. Look for cues that he’s interested, like a flirty smile, a gentle touch, or a compliment, to know if a Taurus man wants to chase you . [9]
    • Being patient with a Taurus man extends to things like having conversations. If he pauses when speaking, give him a few extra seconds to make sure he’s finished. Don’t interrupt him just to hear yourself speak; instead, communicate slowly and earnestly so he feels seen and heard by you.
    • Reader Poll: We asked 1578 wikiHow readers who've dated Taurus men, and 56% of them agreed that the best way to approach them is by giving them space and waiting for them to reach out. [Take Poll]

Dating a Taurus Man

  1. 1
    Cook him a romantic dinner at home. A Taurus male loves food and especially loves a home-cooked meal. Create an experience for him around a delicious dinner that is also focused on a romantic aesthetic. Play some soothing music, light candles, and be sure your home is super inviting to him. [10]
  2. 2
    Plan a date in nature. A Taurus man feels at home in the outdoors, whether taking part in a sport, outdoor activity, or something as simple as a nature walk. He’ll love getting to know you during a bike ride, a short hike, or a game of mini golf. Even a musical performance or food festival that takes place on a waterfront or in a park will stand out from other, less memorable events you might choose for a date with your Taurus man. [12]
    • Astrologer Julia Topaz suggests that a “Taurus man is very into aesthetics, so planning a date somewhere with a beautiful view—like a picnic in a scenic location—can be appealing to him.” [13]
  3. 3
    Participate in a sensual activity with him. Appeal to the fact that a Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty and pleasure. This may involve a trip to an art museum, a fashion show, or a luxurious dinner cruise. When it comes to possible intimacy, a Taurus man isn’t shy about getting physical, either, as long as you don’t rush into it. [14]
    • If you’re working on building a deeper connection with a Taurus man, psychic astrologer Stina Garbis believes you can “make a fast track to his heart by breaking out the massage oil and giving him a sensual rub down.” [15]
  4. 4
    Surprise him with quality gifts. If you’re dating a Taurus man , it’s no secret that he can be thought of as materialistic at times. A Taurus man appreciates the finer things in life, but this doesn’t mean you have to break the bank. Buy him a quality candle instead of a cheap one; surprise him with a luxurious massage or weekend getaway he’ll appreciate (especially if it involves a good meal). Even something as simple as a silk necktie will catch his eye and show him you appreciate his good taste. [16]

Love & Communication with a Taurus Man

PDF download Download Article
  1. Taurus is known for his pride and ego, which dominate a large part of his personality—if he feels you’re attacking his ego, he may close up even more. Try to give him space to open up and express love or at least how he’s feeling (or how your actions make him feel). [17]
    • During an argument, this doesn’t 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.
  2. You may need to draw him out by showing him you're comfortable being caring and demonstrative about how you feel toward him. Once he feels comfortable himself, he’ll learn to act thoughtfully towards you as well. [18]
    • 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. Just give him some time and space as he finds his way towards compromise.
    • Astrologer Aliza Kelly notes that “the Taurus man is very egocentric. Once he establishes a pattern, he likes to maintain it, along with comfort zones that could be difficult to break. It's important for open dialogue and conversation around why the patterns may not be working and potentially proposing some other options to sort of break these habits.” [19]
  3. 3
    Flirt with a Taurus man through text. Sending him short, flirty texts keeps you on his mind. Keep your texts lighthearted and sensual without being overbearing or obsessive. You can do this by texting him a song you know he’ll love to listen to while thinking of you. Leaving him a voice note so he can remember (and playback) your voice whenever he wants to is also a cute way to communicate with a Taurus guy. Some possible flirty texts you can send to a Taurus man are ahead:
    • "I trust your taste in sushi. Does this one look yummy?😉Know any good sushi places we can go to?”
    • “Every time I hear this song, I think of you. Why is that?😏”
    • “I hope you appreciate that my phone is dying, but I still wanted to text you!”
    • “Do you like my new haircut? I hope it looks as good through text as it does in person😉.”
  4. 4
    Be a good listener to him. You can start by asking him questions about himself. This shows him that you’re genuinely interested in him. Continue to be a good listener when he shares anything about himself with you by practicing active listening . Focus on what he’s saying vs. what you want to say in return. Make eye contact with him and touch his hand if he’s telling you something personal about himself. [20]
  5. Along with being aloof and slow to make his move, Taurus can be a bit untrusting. He’s a believer in the mantra, "If you want something done right, you do it yourself." This can affect his romantic relationships, too, where he's used to doing his own thing. However, if you show him you're trustworthy and responsible, he'll learn that it makes sense to let his guard down—that's when you know you've won Taurus's heart. [21]
    • Be consistent by following through with your promises; if you say you’re going to make him dinner, don’t tell him you’re tired and can’t do it.
    • Try not to leave him hanging—be reliable. If you’re supposed to pick him up at work, be there on time (or text/call him to let him know you’re running late if unavoidable).
    • Be honest at all times and avoid playing games. If something bothers you, tell him what it is and how you both can fix it together.
    • Avoid trying to make him jealous. He’ll see this as a violation of the trust you’ve built together.

What should I know about dating a Taurus man?
WikiEagleDiver755

Hey everyone! I’m curious what the pros and cons of dating a Taurus man are. I’ve heard that they’re stubborn and like nice things, but that’s kind of about it and frankly that’s not a whole lot of info to go on. So, what would I be in for if I said “yes” to a date with a Taurus? How might I attract a Taurus, and how will he act if he's interested in me?
Stina Garbis
Psychic Astrologer
Taurus is a “fixed” sign, and is embodied by the stubborn bull. It is hard to get a fixed bull to move unless it really wants to move. Taurus is also kind of a lazy sign, so you can’t play hard to get with them because they don’t want to run. They don’t want to jump through hoops or chase, they just want to be held and told they’re hot stuff.

I’d recommend that you try to make it easy for a Taurus to be with you. Find reasons to bring them gifts, or be helpful to them in some way to where they will need you again. Taureans also like eye candy, so playing up the sexy outfits and high-end jewelry is always a great way to go.

Also, try to engage in a lot of warm hugs and offer plenty of massages. Beyond that, Taurus tends to keep their social circle small, to family and a few friends, and it is hard to break in. If a Taurus is going out of their way to spend any time with you at all it’s a big sign they’re into you!
Julia Topaz
Astrologer
So Taurus men really like everything to be natural with someone they date. For example, it would be pretty rare for a Taurus man to be into flashy or provocative clothing, a lot of makeup, or anything like that. So, if you want to attract him, being really natural will help. They're also obsessed with food–cooking them something will go a long way in seducing them and maintaining their interest. They also tend to be really into nice aesthetics. For example, when you're choosing places to go together, keep in mind that they like beautiful, nice places. If you go for a picnic, you should look for a place that has a nice view–they're really sensitive to those things. Finally, be really patient with them, because they're very slow-moving!

    Taurus men love money and food, so it's best to approach them through their stomach. They're also very sensual (not so much sexual) and touchy-feely types of people.

    A Scorpio, definitely! Taurus is all about money, while Scorpio is about passion. Scorpios need to be with somebody like a Taurus, while Taurus needs to be with someone who can keep things moving.
