Do you ever wonder what exactly controls who we are attracted to? I'm wondering. I mean, you can make a short....or long....list of all the qualities that you believe will lead to a happy relationship but does that really guarantee anything? Or is it all a big crapshoot?
I know people who set out with their list in hand...found someone who met all the prerequisites...got married........and are now divorced. I also know people who met someone by chance...married after a brief, whirlwind courtship........and are still married. Some of my friends say it's important to marry your best friend. Some say that you shouldn't share everything with your partner. If you could create an "ideal" partner for your lifetime, would you create the person who you're currently with?
I've been pondering these questions because lately it seems to me that my own attractions seem to have absolutely no rhyme or reason. I've met smart, funny men who I'm pretty sure that I should be quite happy and honored to spend time with....but I'm not. And then I've met odd, quirky men who most would say that I should run screaming from (okay, maybe not literally screaming) but whose company I enjoy and look forward to having. Am I THAT messed up? Am I intentionally sabotaging myself?? Or is it something out of my control?
Why do we connect with some people and not with others?
I read an article discussing reincarnation which suggested that perhaps we go through each lifetime meeting the same group of souls who will help guide us through our travels. The notion was that we will always feel a kinship with these people as they enter our lives in their various incarnations....hence forming relationships with some as opposed to others....you might seemingly be the completely WRONG person for me, but I feel this undeniable connection to you. If this whole run into the same souls thing is true, I REALLY wish this lifetime would send me a smart, kind, funny, hot, generous guy with oodles of money........meh, who am I kidding...I'll settle for just one of the above....
