How to Apologize to a Taurus Man

The key to apologizing to a Taurus is to give him the time and space he needs to calm down. He’s not going to forgive you no matter how much you apologize if he’s still angry.

You also need to be honest and genuine with your apology. “I’m sorry” by itself means nothing, and it means less than nothing if you don’t mean it.

You may need to change your behavior following the apology as well. Moreover, if you want to avoid the same mistake in the future, you need to do better.

Figure Out How Mad He Is

How long does a Taurus man stay mad? It depends on the reason.

If you two had a minor argument, he’s probably not seething with anger. Instead, he may just be irritated and need some time to cool off.

When a Taurus man goes quiet after an argument, that doesn’t mean he’s calm. Instead, he might be holding back anger or hiding a deep hurt. So don’t assume that it’s fine to continue the discussion just because he’s not yelling.

He is probably furious if you did something to betray his trust (like cheating on him). Taurus men can seem calm and laid back most of the time, but they have a mean temper when provoked.

How angry he is matters. He won’t listen to you at all if he’s enraged. He’ll need more time and space than if he was simply irritated.

You’ll really need to work on your apology if you’ve done something serious to make him angry. A few words and some affection might work after a small argument, but that won’t be enough for more intense matters.

Give Him Time and Space

Taurus needs time to calm down. You probably do as well.

There is no sense in apologizing if either party is still angry. He won’t listen to you. If you try to talk to him while he’s still upset, it might result in another argument.

Go to separate locations if you can. For example, if you live together, you might want to go take a walk or stay at a friend’s place for a few hours (or overnight, depending on how bad the situation is).

If a Taurus man doesn’t initiate contact for a while, don’t bother him. He needs time to process what has happened. He needs to be able to calm down. Let him know you’re ready to talk when he is and wait for him to respond.

When a Taurus man disappears following a massive betrayal on your part, that might be it for you two.

Unfortunately, Taurus is exceptionally stubborn, and if he decides he can’t get over whatever it is you’ve done, he probably won’t.

Make Sure He’s Calm

Taurus has an explosive temper. It can be scary when he’s angry, especially since he’s typically so laid back!

Again, you can’t have a conversation with him, let alone correctly apologize, if he’s still angry.

Wait until he calms down enough to talk to you. He might approach you first, or you might have to just check in and see how he’s doing.

Once he’s had some time to think and be by himself, those intense feelings of anger will likely dissipate. But, if they don’t, a simple apology is probably not going to fix anything.

“Calm” doesn’t mean he’s already forgiven you, and everything is perfectly fine. You still need to apologize. He is likely still upset and waiting for that apology.

Being calm just means that he’s got his anger under control and that he’s willing to hear you out.

If it was something small, he might actually be over it before you apologize. It’s still a good idea to give him an apology, though.

Be Honest with Him

Honesty is the best way to handle a Taurus man when he’s hurt or angry.

If he’s angry, he’s not going to put up with crap from anyone, least of all the person who angered him in the first place. So don’t make things worse by being dishonest.

If he senses that your apology isn’t genuine, he’ll just get angry again. Even if he’s calmed down enough to have a conversation, he’ll go straight back to be frustrated with you.

If you did something wrong, explain to him what happened. For example, if you said something to hurt his feelings, tell him why you said it.

Explaining why you did something doesn’t mean making excuses.

It can be helpful to know that somebody you love didn’t hurt you for absolutely no reason. Having some sort of explanation, along with an apology, can help fix the hurt you caused.

Don’t Say “I’m Sorry”

Knowing how to apologize to a Taurus can be difficult because “sorry” is the last word he wants to hear during an apology.

“I’m sorry,” by itself sounds empty. Why are you sorry? What are you sorry for? “I’m sorry,” does nothing to show whether or not you feel remorse.

How do you know what to say to a Taurus man if you can’t just say, “I’m sorry”? Your apology needs to come from the heart, and it needs to be specific to the circumstance.

Genuine remorse means acknowledging what you did wrong and taking steps to not only make amends but to avoid the same behavior in the future.

If you don’t actually feel sorry, your apology is going to be pointless.

You might feel like he’s the one who needs to apologize. On the other hand, you might also think no apology is required. Talk to him about how you feel instead of just giving him empty words.

You need to show him that you’re genuinely sorry as well, not just tell him.

Cook for Him

If you want to know how to comfort a Taurus man after an argument, just make his favorite meal.

This by itself won’t fix everything, of course. Instead, it’s simply a nice cherry on top in combination with a heartfelt apology.

Taurus loves to indulge. When he’s upset, he may find comfort in his favorite meal. This is especially true if it’s cooked fresh by somebody he loves.

Again, don’t expect food to solve all your problems. You can’t just cook him dinner every time you upset him and assume that’s going to make everything okay. This is just an excellent way to show that you care about him.

If you can’t cook, showing up with his favorite dessert or something else you can buy will also do the trick. But, again, you want to show him that you care enough to remember what he likes.

Bring Him a Gift

Taurus loves material things. He will hardly ever turn down a gift.

Gifts are the same as food, though: a great addition to an apology but not an apology all by themselves.

You don’t need to give him something extravagant. Just find something simple that will help cheer him up and provide some extra comfort after you apologize.

Gifts don’t fix everything either. If you really messed up, not even the most expensive of gifts will solve the problem. If you keep messing up, gifts aren’t going to make him feel better.

This is just another way to show that you know him and that you care. Gifts are something extra. You need to apologize first.

Be Willing to Change

Will a Taurus man come back after you’ve hurt him? Of course, he might, but only if you show him that you won’t make the same mistake twice.

You’re not perfect. Nobody is. You’re going to make mistakes now and then. He’s going to as well. Every relationship has disagreements.

If he’s upset because you constantly insult him or talk down to him, make an effort to change how you speak to him. Tell him what you like about him, not what you don’t.

If you haven’t been paying attention to him or you’re never around, try to make more time in your schedule for him.

When you apologize, ask what you can do to make things right. Listen to him. You don’t have to change your entire personality. Just be willing to change any negative behaviors that are causing you to hurt the people around you.

Don’t Do it Again

There’s no point learning how to apologize to a Taurus man if you’re just going to turn around and do the exact same thing again. And, of course, he won’t put up with it.

If he forgives you after something serious like cheating, he absolutely will not forgive you a second time.

If you continue to make the same mistake over and over again, it’s not truly a mistake. It’s repeated behavior.

In the same way, hurting him multiple times by doing something you know upsets him just shows that you aren’t sorry. It tells him that you don’t care about him or his feelings.
