I am taking Unknown Diva's advice

So thank you to everyone who commented on yesterday's post... but I am riding with Unknown. Her comment intrigued me so much that I looked to a compatibility test to see what it says about the Taurus dating a Taurus. Here is what it said:


Taurus and Taurus

When two Taureans come together in a love affair, it's a very sensuous and stable relationship -- which pleases both of them to no end. Those are two of the things a Taurus prizes most in a relationship (along with fidelity, sharing good food and other creature comforts ...) When two people both of this Sign get together, it can be the love connection of a lifetime. They will spoil one another to both their hearts' content: Taurus can respect their sweetheart's desire for life's little luxuries, because they have that need themselves. Both partners are charming, graceful and dignified. They can be quite stubborn and opinionated, not to mention jealous and possessive. All Tauruses have to learn to agree to disagree, and especially two Tauruses together; they need to recognize that their relationship is too good to jeopardize with minor arguments.

Taureans are blessed with strong willpower and commitment. They love the wooing process of courting, so the beginning, building stages of their relationship may stretch out deliciously. Taureans rarely rush into a relationship, but once they're committed, it's solid -- maybe even for life. When two Taureans get together, both provide and expect total devotion. Because of this devotion, a Taurus-Taurus pair may be more possessive of each other than most. Nothing upsets these lovers more than infidelity, but -- luckily -- because both partners are so dedicated to each other and the relationship and because Taureans tend to be very reliable, cheating is rare.

Taurus is ruled by the Planet Venus. When two people with Venus energy come together, it can be love at first sight. Both partners are highly romantic and loving, and they never tire of physical contact and touching. They are the great stamina Signs of the Zodiac; they love to go all day and all night and all the next day … They are highly sensual and both enjoy pampering. Emotional security is very important to them, but when this is guaranteed these partners can be as decadent and indulgent as they please. They can tend to be lazy, becoming overly relaxed in the moment, but generally they work very hard to maintain the lifestyle of luxury that they prefer.

The second paragraph is what convinced me not to give up so soon. So we'll see!

I just feel like if I initiate something and he still doesn't bite that I will never have to wonder. But if I don't initiate and be done with it, then I will end up chilling with idiots that have 10 times more issues about them. This is really the only issue that I have with Semipro, so if I do end up dipping out, I know I wont wonder if I was wrong for cutting him off so soon. I mean ya'll saw Why did I get married... even though this ain't even close to being anything about marriage, the same 80/20 rule applies when dating. Why would I give up so easy on someone that has 80 of what I want and end up dating a whole bunch of fools that only have 20.

So yesterday made me sit back and assess my other options for a date. Even though I don't like these dudes, just being out and about with them may help me get my swagger back if Semipro decides not to act right. (yeah I admit that messing with him has altered my tough girl swagger a bit, no JOKES... I can see Opinionated Diva's comment in my head already...lol)

1. JS - Has been on me heavy all week. Even invited me to have lunch with him next week. I wasn't feeling it. First of all he has locs, and I don't do locs. Granted their not long and nasty all down his back, they are about shoulder length and always neat but I just don't know. Then on top of that... he tried to holla at one of my home girls a couple months ago but she lied and told him she had a BF. I called him on it since I knew from the first day I met him that he had already tried to holla at her. He tried to play it off like he met her before seeing me and if he met us at the same time it might have been a different story. WTF ever. Try to spit that game on somebody that don't already know it... But I think I might just take him up on that lunch. He is a cool dude, just not physically attracted to him. Another one that has a kid though.... ugh!

2. Thirtyfive - That's his name because that's his age... I have a 5 year rule and he doesn't make that. Not attracted to him at all but he's been trying to chill for the last 2 weekends, but I have been cook-out hopping. He has this funky facial hair that he needs to do something with. I saw pics of him clean shaven and he's not too shabby but with that mess I just can't deal.

3. Then there's EX-PRO - lives in Atlanta, and wants me to be his GF for real. (@12kyle - not the dude your thinking because I wouldn't nickname him EX-PRO) But I only look at him like a friend so I don't want to lead him on. We talk a couple times a week and he keeps pressing me to come back down to ATL to visit. He's a sweetie, but way too nice, I know I could have him wrapped around my little finger if I wanted, and that is so unsexy. Plus I just feel like he needs to be worrying more about his next career move then being in a relationship and may not even want a relationship just want the comfort that it has since he is extremely disappointed in his career failure.

I also want to say thank you to April from AroundHarlem for making me realize that I do favor him more than the others. I really answer the phone only if I feel like it or am bored with the others, but always make time for Semipro via call or text. So operation making myself unavailable to him all the time has already begun.

He text me last night. He was out with the boys at a strip club to tell me he was at a strip club. So lame I know. So I wait 30 min and then text back "Have fun." He texts back..."Its whack, might come see you." I text back... "nah, i'm good."

So the games begin!!! I hate this ish...
