My boyfriend and I have been together for a year and two months, but lately we've run into a lot of problems. We've been fighting a lot and both of us are feeling scared of settling down with each other (especially me, this is my first serious relationship). We are both pretty young (he is 21 and i'm 19), and we're thinking that we should start seeing other people. By being inclusive we're hoping to get other "prospects" out of our system before we settle down and get married. The problem is, we're both Tauruses, and I'm especially scared as to what being inclusive is going to involve. What should I expect? Are there any "rules" or tips that I could keep in mind?

The most important thing is that you each set out your boundaries and agreement with each other ahead of time. Sit down together and ask and answer questions like
1. Are we allowed to have sex with other people? (It is very hard to date other people without falling into bed with them in any case.)
2. Are we supposed to tell each other about the other people we date? (It might be that you are required to tell, required not to tell, or that it's up to each person to decide. Or there might be other conditions.)
3. What kind of precautions are we taking to make sure we don't get diseases and pass them to each other? Or to prevent a paternity question?
...and be sure to discuss your concerns openly, whatever they are.
Handling this type of relationship is pretty hard for most people and may very well lead to a break-up. But that might be the best thing if you're having a lot of fights and trouble between you.
Whenever the issue of personality differences between people of different astrological signs have been studied, they haven't been found to exist. So I don't think the fact that you are Tauruses will impact this at all.
Good luck with your experimentation.

well, i would definitely agree with him with the "seeing other people" thing. it's not like you two would never get back together, you would just be taking a break, which is good because you said this is your first serious relationship. so you would need to see other people to know if being with him felt right.

You should expect to get to know other people and see if you are more compatible with them or with your current boyfriend. That's it.
