It might seem like Taurus is one of the most chill and easy-breezy earth signs to be around, but most people don’t know this sign’s cold, distant, and temperamental side. Now, I’m not trying to scare you away from your earth boo, but you must know certain things if you’re planning to move in with them. Taurus doesn’t usually hide behind anyone. They are also clear as day when communicating. So, here are some tips for living with a Taurus so you’re never blindsided. All the best!

1. They are practical romantics

You can’t expect a Taurus to switch off their logical instincts under any circumstances. Yes, they are lovey-dovey people and one of the most romantically expressive zodiac signs. But their practicality and emotions could send mixed signals. It might seem like they are hurt, but they get over it quickly. Their reactions to good or bad things don’t last for days on end. Learning that about your Taurus boo will make your life a lot less complicated.

2. They love being surprised now and then

A Taurus would always be up for spoiling you with their love, affection, and fine material things. So, they automatically expect something from you. They don’t want you to match their level, but they do expect you to revert with some loving gesture. No one is saying it’s fair or even makes sense, but you chose to fall in love with this zodiac sign, so you gotta do what you gotta do. Try not to make your surprise obvious, because they get anal about it real quick.

3. Taurus are keen listeners and very observant

A Taurus will never make you feel like they are not paying attention. They are keen listeners and very observant about people, especially their close ones. So, a good tip for living with a Taurus is to try and be clear about your thoughts and emotions. Taureans take pride in being great listeners, so you don’t wanna break their hearts by keeping things from them and thinking you don’t wanna bother them. Spill, babe, spill. They’ll clean up after you.

4. It’s their way or the highway

This zodiac sign is usually quite lowkey and hates drama until you lock horns with them. A Taurus has only one motto — ‘it’s my way or the highway’; they live to fulfil that motto every single day. So, a good tip for living with a Taurus is to remember to get into fewer arguments with them because it’s not gonna be pretty, and you’re not gonna like it. They can be stubborn and sulky, and they will give you the cold shoulder if things don’t go their way.

5. They love their comfort and aren’t the adventurous kind

If you know anything about Taurus, you know they love living their comfortable, luxurious life. That might work for like-minded people because who doesn’t love watching movies at Director’s Cut with a tub of caramel popcorn in hand? But if you expect your boo to go on trekking trips with you and set up a camp in the middle of nowhere, that ain’t happening, honey. So, make up your mind before making the big move because trips and vacations are kind of a big deal in relationships.

6. Taurus isn’t your next door hook up buddy

Let’s make it very clear — being an earth sign, Taurus has a fixed outlook on certain things, relationships being one of them. They aren’t the fling-it-and-wing-it kinda people. Sure, they’re very good at physically making you feel appreciated, but there is a limit to it. A Taurus won’t just approach you for a hook-up situation; they’re above it, at least in their heads. They look for commitment, love, and long-term togetherness in a partner. So, be sure of your intentions before moving in with a Taurus, and always remember, they’re the petty kind.

7. Don’t be stingy or cheap

Now, I’m not saying you gotta be an extra rich bitch to date a Taurus. What I mean is, you gotta be rich in your heart. A Taurus loves a giving partner — be it on the table, the bed, or anywhere else in the house. They love to be spoiled and looked after. So, plan a candlelight dinner with a home-cooked meal and a fine bottle of wine, followed by a sexy session in the bedroom. Some satin sheets and fur handcuffs will be a bonus, wink wink.

8. They can be a tad (a lot) possessive and insecure

See, honey, a Taurus is a loyal and loving being who appreciates feeling the same. When you don’t show them affection or pay attention to them, they can get really insecure. It won’t take them long to create an imaginary person who’s probably ruining your relationship. And don’t even think of flirting around when your Taurus partner is standing next to you unless you wanna have the most uncomfortable and dead-silent ride back home.
