2. Play Mind Games

When a Taurus man goes quiet, he may be upset with you. He may also just be busy or stressed out or contemplative. Taurus isn’t always outgoing. He trusts you to be able to handle some distance in the relationship.

Yet if you intentionally play with his mind, you’ll take him by surprise. Taurus can be cautious and defensive at first, but once he’s in a relationship with you, he’s counting on you to be honest and direct.

If you play mind games with him after he’s taken the chance to trust you, you’ll hurt him. You may also find that he gives up on any chance of a future relationship because he won’t tolerate this kind of treatment.

3. Make Him Jealous

4. Insult His Appearance

It may seem odd, but as much as Taurus men project an image of being solid and stoic, they are actually quite sensitive to any kind of personal criticism. Taurus men also value their appearance and image.

If you want to hurt a Taurus man, an easy way to do this is to criticize or insult his appearance. Point out that he’s gaining weight or that his clothes are no longer trendy. Taurus men love beauty and this includes their own sense of self-image.

If you drop hints that make him doubt his beauty and attractiveness, you’ll get under his skin. This kind of insult or criticism can be damaging to a Taurus man’s self-esteem and will definitely hurt his feelings.

It could also harm the relationship, so only do this if you are certain you want to drive him away. Taurus men need to feel admired, accepted and secure in a relationship. Using this tactic to hurt him could also mean the end of the relationship.

5. Criticize His Profession

When a Taurus man misses you, he may take a chance and seek connection again, even if you’ve really hurt him in the past. There are a few issues that he won’t be able to overcome, though.

If you hurt a Taurus man by criticizing his profession or professional accomplishments or by criticizing him for being underemployed or unemployed, he’ll disappear. This kind of criticism is devastating for a Taurus man.

Almost as much as he values his appearance, a Taurus man values his work and career. He is ambitious and productive and can feel personally devastated if he loses a job or if things aren’t going well in his career.

If you criticize him for any reason related to his work, especially if he hasn’t been doing well, it can be a significant trigger for a Taurus man. It is one he won’t easily bounce back from and he may block you altogether if you use his career struggles to insult him.
