What Is Love?

Love is something I can't describe physically or even emotionally. It's a mystical essence of passion that drives our very being for a richer life. Love may very well be something in a class of its own. Being held tightly on a dark night, losing all track of time in the heat of the moment, having someone play with your hair while watching TV, and just growing older with someone, all make up just the tip of the iceberg of love. It tests the human spirit and devotion. To fail and deceive only result in ultimate heart break and emptiness.

What I find most attractive are white guys (or an occasional Latino dude) with floppy blonde or dark hair, blue eyes, freckles, average to athletic build; pretty much the "all-American boy." I'm not really into the typical gay "scene" including flashy clubs, drag shows, the snotty attitude that gets shoved around, and most of all, drama! I have my fair share of drama and don't need anyone else's. I'm just a nice all around L.A. kid who's into a little bit of everything, as long as it involves cute white boys!

Loving Your Taurus Man (from the Gay Love Signs Book)

I'm a Taurean, so for all you dudes out there who are into astrology, check this stuff about me out! Some 90% of it is true, the rest I leave to nature. J

If you want to find a Taurus man, look for him wherever there are pleasant social gatherings, especially those involving music. Weather a symphony concert or disco, music definitely has charms to attract him. Since he can be a social climber, the more elegant and refined the setting, the more likely you are to meet a Taurus man. Taureans are usually looking for love, rather than a quick fling. Stable and enduring romance is his biggest turn on.

While he certainly has the capacity for Earthy sex, he is not usually the aggressor when you first meet. He will want to feel that he has accepted your advances rather than submitted to you. The difference may be subtle, but it is important to him to feel that he has control of his life. If you come on too strong, you will drive him away.

Taurus men are honest and forthright fellows who like to live lives of order and comfort. He is a materialist, and his possessions are an important statement of his goals in life. He needs symbols of security and achievement to be happy. He is not susceptible to personal flattery, but if you compliment him on his taste in clothes or praise the way he has decorated his apartment, he will feel that you appreciate him in the way in which he has chosen to seek recognition.

Taureans have a natural sense of humor, especially when they feel secure within their social setting. If you meet him at a small gathering or in the company of friends, you will see him at his charming best. He may be a bit insecure in large and noisy scenes, but if he finds you attractive, he will suggest that you two meet another time so that you can get to know each other better. Take your cue from him and don't try to rush him into bed. He likes to be courted, to feel that you are interested in his personality as well as his other charms.

When you go out together, he will respond beautifully if you go to a good restaurant. Taureans are very susceptible to classic seduction scenes: soft lights, fine wine, soothing music, plump pillows, and seductive conversation. He loves to receive small tokens of affection, but extravagant presents offend his practical nature. Taurus is a generous sign, and he will get much pleasure from giving you little gifts--usually practical ones. Always make a fuss over things he gives you, not for the object but for his kindness and consideration.

Taureans often make living in management fields because of their organizational skills. They are dedicated to their jobs and are rarely irresponsible, even when in love. Don't pester him with calls at the office or try to distract him from his sense of duty where his career is concerned. If he doesn't feel that you respect his need for professional advancement, he will reject you as a friend or lover.

This man needs to keep professional, social and sexual lives separate and in harmony. In love, he is a very private person and will not broadcast the details of his personal life. Though not necessarily in the closet, he may worry that his private life will adversely affect his professional advancement. Money is the tangible proof of his success and the guarantee of his security. Without financial peace of mind he is a very unhappy and pessimistic about his future.

Taureans are protective and possessive. Evenings at home engaged in domestic pursuits may not be your cup of tea. If you want him to be more social, you will have to be subtle in your suggestions. If you make an issue or force a confrontation, he will become stubborn and angry. He is willing to tolerate things about you he doesn't especially like for the sake of your relationship, but don't take advantage of his desire for domestic harmony.

Taureans are men of moral values. He has a strong sense of right and wrong and prides himself on his fairness. He may be set in his ways, but his habits are based upon high ideals. Taureans are gentle, romantic souls in spite of their efficient exteriors. He can easily slip into predictable patterns of behavior and may take his lovers for granted. Most of all, he needs to trust you with his love, but he needs to learn that others need demonstrative affection in order to love.

Whenever you want him to become putty in your hands, give him a massage. Focus on the neck and shoulder muscles and you will feel the tension and worry flowing out of him as he surrenders to your loving touch.

Most of all, he needs to feel appreciated by his lover if he is to be secure in any relationship. If you take him too lightly or are too flippant about the matters he prizes so highly, he will lose his equilibrium. When a Taurus is emotionally confused, his temper is short, he eats too much rich food, and he loses his charming sense of humor. As a potential lover, the man is a blue-chip stock that will provide dividends forever if you let the investment slowly appreciate over the years.

Someday he will achieve his longtime goal of moving to the country. He values the simple pleasures of life that are rich in spirit and untainted by the vanity of superficial gratification. Taurus wants and needs a long and lasting love to make his world complete. If you are willing to commit yourself to his ideals of permanence and perseverance, Taurus can be the pot of golden love at the end of the rainbow.
