Did that Taurus guy do something to upset you, and now you’re giving him the silent treatment? Or did he start ignoring you, and you don’t know when it will end? Either way, it’s probably going to take a while with him since Taurus is one of the slowest zodiac signs. They like to take their time with things, so I wouldn’t expect the cold shoulder to thaw out too fast.
The Stubborn Nature of The Taurus Man
You’ve probably noticed that Taurus men can be really stubborn. Once they make up their mind about something or someone, it’s hard to change it. So, thinking that giving him the silent treatment will make him miss you and come running back might be wishful thinking.
Taurus guys like things to be stable and predictable. They also really enjoy comfort and familiarity. Once they get used to a routine or relationship, they really don’t like changing it. If you broke up, he’d probably dig in his heels to avoid the discomfort of the unknown, even if the relationship wasn’t that great.
Don’t expect him to change his mind easily. A Taurus man won’t be swayed by emotional pleas or empty promises. He needs to actually see evidence that things will be different going forward. Ignoring him? It won’t work. And if he’s the one giving you the silent treatment, don’t just sit around waiting for your phone to ring. You’ll just end up hurting yourself.
When Is The No Contact Rule Appropriate?
If you’ve had a messy breakup or argument and emotions are running high, going no contact for a bit could actually help.
No Contact Rule From His Side
Taurus men tend to be stubborn and set in their ways. If you’ve hurt his feelings or damaged his trust, he’ll need time to process it. The no contact rule gives you both space to calm down and gain perspective.
In this situation, there isn’t much you can do for the first few weeks or even a month probably. If you try to break the no contact rule, there’s a good chance he’ll just block you because he’ll think you’re being clingy.
If you messed up or broke his trust, let him have his time and respect the no contact. Don’t go smothering him or acting needy. Use this quiet time to work on yourself and show him you’re worth another shot when things settle down.
No Contact Rule From Your Side
If you’ve decided to give the silent treatment, don’t expect him to chase after you or text you. That said, he is the type of guy who needs time to think things over.
If he messed up and you’re doing your no contact thing but still think there’s hope, the best move is not to reach out. Give it a few weeks or a month. Even if he doesn’t text in that time, you could send a casual message to let him know you’re still around if he wants to talk.
How Long Should You Implement The No Contact Rule?
When it comes to the timing of the no contact rule with a Taurus man, patience is key. Taurus men are notoriously slow to change their minds and make decisions. They like stability, so any major shift in a relationship takes time. If you’ve recently broken up with your Taurus ex or had a falling out, implement the no contact rule for at least 3 to 4 weeks.
I know that seems like forever, but it gives him space to start missing you and regretting how things ended between you two. During this time, focus on yourself. Pick up some hobbies, hang with friends, do things that boost your confidence. Also, let him see on social media that you’re living your best life.
After a month of no talking, there’s a good chance he’ll hit you up. But play it cool when he does, keep the conversation light and casual. See if he brings up getting back together or says how much he misses you. If that happens, no contact worked, and you can start slowly letting him back in.
However, if a full month goes by with no word from your Taurus dude, you might have to accept it’s over and work on moving on. I know that’s hard, but continuing to chase someone who’s not interested will just hurt you more in the long run. Use the extra time to heal yourself and focus on improving. If it’s meant to be, staying strong on your own is your best bet to get your Taurus ex interested again when the time is right.
What To Do During The No Contact Rule
During this time when you’re not talking to your Taurus man, focus on yourself and what really matters. Hang out with friends, work on your hobbies, achieve some goals – really dive into your own life. I’m sure he’ll be wondering what you’ve been up to and will be even more into your independent spirit.
If he follows you on social media, don’t be afraid to post about having fun or doing your thing. Let him see that you’re living your best life whether he’s around or not. That’ll show him you’re not needy or clingy at all.
Don’t stalk him on social media. As much as you’ll want to check in on him, resist the urge. Liking his stuff or commenting will just make it seem like you’re hanging on his every word. Just leave his accounts alone for now.
Let him come to you. No matter how much you miss him, don’t you go contacting him. Let him come to you. And if he does message you, just have a casual chat and don’t bring up your relationship status or anything heavy. But after a month of no talking, a little “Hey, how’s it going?” text or like wouldn’t hurt either.
Reinitiating Contact
I know it’s hard not to hit him up, but trust, playing hard to get with that Taurus man of yours is the best move. Let some time pass. After a few weeks, you’ll want to slowly start reinitiating contact to test the waters.
Send A Casual Text
Start with a light, casual text to spark up a conversation, like “Hey, how’s it going?”. See how he responds before suggesting a meeting in person. If he seems open to talking, continue the conversation and look for signs he’s interested in rekindling your connection. However, if he gives short, unenthusiastic replies, he may not be ready to reconnect. Give him more space and try again in a week or two.
Suggest A Low-Key Meetup
If your conversation is going well, you may want to suggest meeting up for some coffee or drinks. Taurus men really like low-key dates where they can unwind and have some good talks. Meeting in person will let you both get a feel for the chemistry and see if you still click. But don’t put pressure on him to commit right off the bat. Just take it slow and keep building that connection between you.
Be Your Charming Self
When you meet up with your Taurus man, turn on the charm! Smile big, look him in the eye, and really pay attention when he’s talking. Taurus men love a fun, flirty lady who makes him feel special. Give him some genuine compliments to boost his confidence. But don’t come on too strong. Especially at first. Let things progress naturally so he wants more of your time and attention. The slow burn will have him hooked!
Is It Worth It?
Only you can decide if it’s worth it for your situation. Just remember that Taurus guys value stability and routine. If he’s already moved on, chasing after him probably isn’t a good idea – it may push him further away. But if you get the sense he still cares about you and just needs a break, giving him some space could work in your favor. Let him have a chance to realize what he’s missing, but don’t hang around if he never comes around.
