Great job, you two!
I have been following this post since day one because I was captivated by this sort of 'obsession' with being single, specially given your age, jlo -like Jennifer Lopez, right?-.
|
Oh my God ,now I'm very embarassed that I come across as someone obsessed with being single :( I'm not that obsessed actually lol as I would never settle for anyone .

I would have told you exactly what Cedars said in his last post above, but I refrained and waited for his cards to speak -it is so much more romantic being 'told off' by the cards, at least it is to me -.
I loved it when you could connect to all the points he raised in the reading. It is true that amazing pairs formed for each position -btw, Cedars, I am taking good note of this spread: I really liked using 2 cards for each position instead of one-. It is very unusual to get so many Majors in a reading. I take it to mean that all issues here discussed play a major role in your life right now. Which doesn't mean they will still be so important in 10 years time, say.
|
Yes Cedars gave me an amazing reading which was clear,concise and to the point. It's not exactly what I may want to hear but what I needed to hear ..I guess so many majors mean that I'm going through an important phase of my life where the choices will have many consequences.

And that's the great bit about life: when you reach our age, you will see there are far worse things in life than being single, not the least of which is having an unsuitable other half -once you realize it, it is not always easy to shake him off, you know -.

I know life is the same for everyone . Everyone has lessons to learn whether they are in a relationship or not . Romance is insignificant when one thinks of the many problems in life . I am not seeing it completely now and I hope I do soon.

Anyway, I am sorry you still feel like you have a missing limb. Unfortunately, only understanding can shake a feeling off. It is your own preconceived ideas that are making you unhappy:
|
I couldn't agree with you more but it's very difficult for me to let go of these preconceived ideas.

- 'At my age, I should be with someone' -Should? Where is it written?-. You are very right that you need to free yourself from the Devil of your expectations: those are bringing you down, nothing else. Also, haven't you ever heard that love comes only when you cease looking for it?
|
Heard of that many times.I need to stop looking as perhaps there's no one out there for me. It's too complicated.

- 'I've been let down too many times'. I believe you because so have I. And the reason is, once again, that nobody can be forced to live up to our expectations.
|
Agree with that you can't change anyone's personality etc.

- 'If I find a more fulfilling job'. You are looking for fulfillment outside yourself. It is true that discovering your true calling can be a revelation. |
I think that if I got so busy in a job and achieved so much success with it , I wouldn't even be bothered about love.
| pirbid wrote: |
But you decide how fulfilling any activity you do is by giving it more or less points in your achievement list. Once again, your decision.
- 'If I get more responsibilities and more money at work, that would make up for my absent love life'. Please think this sentence through again, because so would losing yourself in drugs or booze, for example. It would never make up for a love life, just make you forget about it for a while. Work is work, love is love. None can take the place of the other. |
You are right .It could still keep me from feeling sad or sorry for myself. I could become so strong as a person and career orienloted that love would hold no value. Only my career goals would mean everything.

BUT lots of people live without them, even happily. Nobody has yet died for lack of those things.
- 'My life is so boring and dull'. Who decides to live it so? |
Argh you are right , I live it in a way that it's boring.
| pirbid wrote: |
- 'Tired of not finding true happiness'. Are you looking for it in the right places? It's hard to find camels in a bird's nest. You are your own happiness if you wish to be. But being sad is also ok. Just do what you need.
Jlo, sorry, I don't mean to be rough with you. It's just that you keep expecting life to give you what you think you lack: love, happiness, money. Are you asking the right way? Are you seeking in the right places? Are you ready to work for them? It's not worth it being down about those things. I wish I could make you see it and take your pain and listlessness away. |
No it's alright. You have given me great advice .Life is too much of a struggle , that's the problem.You never get anything the easy way .Not sure I'm willing to work for them . The easiet thing for me to do right now seems to focus completely on my career .I could look for a better job with more responsibilities in the near future to keep me very busy .

But I can't. Yet I know you will, someday soon, too.

I don't know if that could happen.

The cards you got for the near and far future are so positive that I have no doubt you will turn out great.

I must see it to believe it :P

You only have to follow the advice: the Emperor is someone who always does what needs to be done, no matter how hard or painful. I know you will, too.

Oh boy , the story of my life to end up doing the right thing even if I hate it .

Cedars gave you great advice, with the advantage that he is so much more careful of people's feelings than I am. That is why he is our champion reader on the board.

Lol , sometimes some bluntness is good
