Sounds awful, doesn’t it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I never cared much for January anyway. After-Christmas bills are piling in, it’s too cold to enjoy most outdoor sports (or the ones I like anyway), and everything looks so bare and dreary. No wonder this is the month for the most breakups.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, other than that, why is it that January beats out the others?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here’s my educated guess. Valentine’s Day is right around the corner.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Something clicks in people’s heads that if they plan on getting out, they better do it now before it’s too late. When Valentine’s Day hits, they surely want to be with someone they love, or they don’t want to break their once-loved one’s heart on the most romantic day of the year so they do it now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another reason why it might be that January brings forth more breakups than any other month could be that the new year signals new beginnings. It is a time when people step back and reflect on the previous year, and if there are changes to be made, this is the time to do it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunate for some, these changes include a reevaluation of their love life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If a relationship isn’t working, and can’t be fixed, a breakup is inevitable. The Dear John or Dear Janet letter goes out, and that’s if they even bother to tell them at all. Believe me, from what I hear, some choose to just vanish from the scene of the crime without any warning, the dirty scumbags that they are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, what happens if you’re the dumpee?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After you’ve mourned the loss of your relationship, turn the other cheek and try to learn what it is you were supposed to learn from the relationship. Every relationship is a learning lesson in humility, courage and stamina. Other lessons will be learned, but those are enough in itself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you keep in mind that every single person who comes into your life from here on out on a soul mate basis does so for a reason, it helps you to see why it is that people are there in the first place. Some are not meant to be long-term. In fact, some just come into your life to help you with a particular situation, and they are gone. More than likely, most of them left in January, according to statistics, but even though they are gone in the flesh, their spirit will linger forever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The reason for this is that when two soul mates meet in the first place, it is one spirit calling to another. The one spirit recognizes the other spirit from a previous life perhaps, but whatever the case, there is instant recognition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That recognition, that spiritual connection, will never go away even if the breakup ends on less than amicable terms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This may or may not be what you want to hear, but from a professional stand-point, this is what happens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, if you happen to be one of the statistics this year, and you become the victim of a breakup, remember that there was a reason for the two of you to come together in the first place. Figure out what it was that you learned from it, and go on from there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Breaking up is certainly hard to do because nothing hurts worse than the pain of the heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even though it seems a callous thing on the part of your boyfriend/girlfriend, think of it as a favor. To extend a bad relationship would be detrimental to your well-being. Things would only escalate, and who knows what might happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a distinct plan for you, and this certain person was only meant to come into your life to teach you something, or you teach him, so find ways to look on this as a learning experience. You’ll come out ahead in the long run and it will only empower you for the next relationship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And just think of how nice the next one will be because you have learned a valuable lesson that will give you more strength and power than you had before.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With each relationship, you grow stronger and more confident in what does and does not make you happy. Before long, you will find the one who is supposed to be with you on a long term basis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile, pick up the pieces, learn what it is you are supposed to learn from this relationship, and move on into a better life and a better world of pure, soul mate love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;© Dorothy Thompson&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Relationship expert Dorothy Thompson is the editor/contributing author of ROMANCING THE SOUL and coaches those seeking answers to their soul mate questions.

We are both currently married. I want to know if we will ever be sexually passionate again and be a couple as we once were? I truly believe he is my twin soul mate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once a soul mate, always a soul mate. It’s very normal to harbor feelings for our first love, so don’t feel guilty about it! As for him being your twin soul, I’d have to know more, but the way it sounds, it looks to me that he might be one of your companion soul mates.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Companion soul mates are just as special as your twin soul, so even if he does not turn out to be your twin soul, he was and still is a very important part of your life. As for as being the couple you once were, that is highly unlikely because the couple you once were has gone through a lot of life lessons and with that, growing pains, and the two of you have become entirely different persons you once were. While the feelings can be stirred and the passions reignited, the road you both are on now is completely different. You both have married, and I’m taking it that if you and he feel that there is a need to reunite, there are problems within both your marriages that must be solved. If they cannot be solved, it’s time to move on. Whether that includes you two becoming one again, it would depend on the factors involved. Because the spirits of the two of you are fighting to be rejoined, the reality of it is that it’s not that simple. The first thing you need to do is decide whether breaking up your marriage is worth it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the marriage has problems that can be resolved, my first instinct is to tell you to at least try to work it out because you don’t want to make a big mistake. I’ve heard of cases where two soul mates who are in marriages meet and decide to leave their spouses for their new soul mate only to find they wish they had at least tried to resolve whatever problems there were in the marriage because, in reality, they still loved them. Thus, they found themselves in the soul mate triangle, and even more problems surfaced because of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the problems cannot be resolved, then there’s your cue. But, unless you want to find yourself in a three-way soul mate relationship which has its own set of problems, I’d try to tie up loose ends by looking inside your marriage and seeing what you think the problem might be. If there is a communication problem, encourage your spouse to talk to you about it. If there are drugs, alcohol, or abuse-related issues, my advice to you would be to pack up your bags because it’s only going to get worse without any outside help.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With that said, there is no harm in communicating with your previous soul mate because there is a strong reason why he has resurfaced, and I’m figuring it is because your spirit is crying out for help concerning whatever it is that is going on in your marriage. He has been called to help you with this. Don’t look at it as an opportunity to escape. Look at it as a golden opportunity to find out in which direction you need to go. Listen to your inner self. Your inner self will tell you what you need to do and where you need to go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope this helps!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Soul Mate Queen&lt;br /&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;br /&gt;To read more advice, or to ask my advice on a soul mate issue, you can visit &lt;a href="http://www.soulmatequeen.homestead.com/FreeRelationshipAdvice.html"&gt;www.soulmatequeen.homestead.com/FreeRelationshipAdvice.html&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/28103390-116892724776695254?l=soulmatequeen.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://soulmatequeen.blogspot.com/feeds/116892724776695254/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=28103390&amp;postID=116892724776695254' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/28103390/posts/default/116892724776695254'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/28103390/posts/default/116892724776695254'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://soulmatequeen.blogspot.com/2007/01/relationship-advice-will-my-first-love.html' title='Relationship Advice:  Will My First Love and I Be a Couple Again?'/><author><name>Dorothy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02130829722787925433</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://dorothythompson.homestead.com/Dorothysm.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28103390.post-116413237291993998</id><published>2006-11-21T13:05:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-11-21T13:06:12.936-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Advice With a Heart</title><content type='html'>You know, one of the worse things in my life as a soul mate relationship coach is having to tell people what they don't want to hear. I want to bring out that magic wand and do whatever it takes to have things happen they way they want it to happen. These people open up their hearts to me. I'm sure sometimes I'm their last resort, and I try to put this aside and answer from a professional point of view.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, unfortunately, I also have a heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I try not to let this hamper my decision, for I know they are looking for expert advice, and I try to give it to them like it is, but I still pick up on their emotions, their anguish, their hopelessness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This makes it really hard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am an empath, and this is one of the ways I am able to help people. As I am reading their letters, I can get inside their emotions, and I use this to help me give advice...with a heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was reading a free newspaper the other day, and on the second page was a relationship column written by a local, and someone I didn't know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, being as she wrote in my field, I read her column, and all the while, trying to figure out how I would approach the same question.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was just simply aghast at her answer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The question was, "I am in love with a married man. Can you tell me what I should do?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The so-called relationship columnist proceeded to berate her for even thinking such a thing. No words of wisdom. No help. Just her opinion on what an awful person she was, and basically grinding her spirit to the ground.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before I read her answer, I knew what my answer would be. I knew that, unfortunately, some of our soul mates come into our lives at the wrong time. There are reasons for it, and either parties should not feel ashamed for what has happened. They should feel ashamed if they acted upon it, but not for the feelings they have for one another.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For, you see, the soul mate relationship is a whole different thing. Yes, it's about relationships, but you have to take a different approach. There are no society standards and no right or wrong moral issues, no matter what anyone says. It's on a different realm, and that realm is of a spiritual nature, and doesn't even enter into today's thinking of what is right and wrong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's often hard for people to perceive this. And this is why I'm here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The soul mate world does not run by society's standards, nor are they governed by some narcissistic know-it-all with the diploma that states they have that right to tell people what they feel is right or wrong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The soul mate world has to be interpreted through a medium that does not involve anything other than that deep understanding, and that spiritual communication that involves insight and intuitiveness. But, more than that, it involves knowing the way the soul mate relationship works. And no diploma will give you that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You either have it, or you don't.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you do have it, it's the most wonderful thing in the world because it gives you the power to look underneath the exterior, and delve into the interior where the true soul mate core lies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I felt I had to get this message out because there are so many so-called "experts" out there that are doing more harm than good. Don't berate a person for something they either don't understand, or can't control. Help them. Show them the way out, so that they can go, "Okay, I understand that. Now, I can do something about it."

I've got a book of true soul mate stories (Romancing the Soul), an ebook or two I sell on my website about soul mates and now I've got a brand new forum with a brand new quiz I'd love all of you to fill out just for fun. Go to&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://soulmateadvice.proboards80.com/"&gt;http://soulmateadvice.proboards80.com/&lt;/a&gt; and you'll see the quiz there. Answer it and I'll post my individual interpretations on the board as they come in. It's been really fun so far. I judge your answers by which category I feel your particular soul mate falls into. That's much the way I did it with Romancing the Soul, only I didn't use letters and numbers; instead I used stories but the quiz operates much the same way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why even bother taking the quiz?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm trying to find new ways to explain to people what this dang soul mate relationship thing is all about. People make it so complicated and it's really not. While I can't tell you if your relationship is going to last and I can't tell your future, I can tell you just which kind of soul mate your soul mate is so that you can use rational decisions regarding your future with him or her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No, not all soul mates are meant to stay physically together and no I don't have a magic ball to make that happen, but I can tell you that no matter what happens, once you come into contact with your soul mate(s), the bond never ever goes away because it's that first initial spiritual attraction that draws you together and once you are in its grips, it never lets go. And that is a really neat thing. I like to think it gives people some kind of leverage within their emotions when one of their soul mates leaves them. Nothing hurts worse than the pain of the heart, but if the person can just stop for a minute and figure out why that person came into their life, what good things they brought into your life and how their lives would have been so different without them, they could heal better. The pain will lessen over time but just knowing that that bond is still there gives them a little bit of hope, I think.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An interesting thing happened to me the other day. I found an article on the web that was interesting and so I emailed the author. Turns out he's one of the professors of a big university who is one of the nation's biggest skeptics on anything out of the ordinary. I didn't read his bio until later which was pretty darn impressive. He's been on Larry King and other shows and in many many publications.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We tossed a few emails back and forth and he was determined to hold onto the idea that my ideas was my opinion and no way could I convince him and anyone else that what I believe is what they should believe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I told him many things, but it wasn't until I told him that all I had to do was ask him a few questions and I could find at least one of his soul mates, if not more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He emailed me back, asking if I wanted to prove it by answering a few questions over the phone during one of his classes where all the students would be able to hear it via speaker phone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Never one to turn down a good challenge, I accepted and the soul mate challenge will happen in either March or April. Here's my chance to see if I have the right stuff, for sure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The article I read to find this guy can be found on &lt;a href="http://www.quackwatch.org/11Ind/browne.html"&gt;http://www.quackwatch.org/11Ind/browne.html&lt;/a&gt;. I had written an article mentioning Sylvia Browne and went to the web to find out if her last name ends with an e or not to make sure I had it right and lo and behold I find this guy's article.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, I'm looking forward to that, unless it's a set-up to land on Quackwatch. Eek.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now for some rather nice news...I emailed my publisher, Liz Burton of Zumaya, to see if she'd can the last mss I sent her and would be interested in my soul mate book "The Soul Mate Triangle - Unlocking the Mysteries of the Soul Mate Relationship." She did and not only that, she's getting it out as soon as possible. Now how many publishers do you know of that is so supportive and gets right back to you within hours?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Amazing. And, without even seeing the mss, she's sending me a contract on Monday. Boggles the mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, take the quiz for me and see how well I stack up your soul mate and have a wonderful week-end!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/28103390-115478198204492170?l=soulmatequeen.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://soulmatequeen.blogspot.com/feeds/115478198204492170/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=28103390&amp;postID=115478198204492170' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/28103390/posts/default/115478198204492170'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/28103390/posts/default/115478198204492170'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://soulmatequeen.blogspot.com/2006/08/soul-mate-quiz.html' title='The Soul Mate Quiz'/><author><name>Dorothy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02130829722787925433</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://dorothythompson.homestead.com/Dorothysm.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28103390.post-115414876550811485</id><published>2006-07-28T23:51:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-07-28T23:52:45.520-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Can You Reverse Soul Mate Energy?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5846/157/1600/QueenTour6.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5846/157/200/QueenTour6.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;Q: I understand that when soulmates meet very often one may pick up on the connection whilst the other dosn't or goes into denial. I've heard that the energy connection can be put into the spiritual reverse so the other mate gets more interactive. How would you encourage this spiritual reverse of the energies?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: The first thing you need to look into is why it is that one soul mate feels the spiritual connection, but the other doesn’t. That is your key. I feel that when the love isn’t reciprocated, the one who is backing off is the one who has not come to terms with him or herself. In other words, there is still some baggage that the other is not letting go of which is preventing them from opening up their heart and feeling this soul mate energy. I feel that they do feel it, but for one reason or another, and because they still have some karma within themselves to work out, they put up a block. In most cases, they are putting up that block because of past hurts, although there are zillions of other reasons such as maybe they need space to find out who they are before they begin another relationship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To reverse the energy connection would be to find a way to knock down that block, of course. I really don’t believe we have that power to do so because we are not that person and we have not gone through the same experiences they have that caused the block. Sure, we can be sympathetic and try all we can to help that person see it our way, but it’s not going to happen until it’s time for it to happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have found that timing plays a huge part in whether soul mates are meant to be together at a particular time in history. I also feel that our life’s paths were already mapped out before we were born, so it wouldn’t be following either one’s life path to MAKE it happen and would, basically, screw up the scheme of things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was an interesting story I read about a man who believed he could turn a woman he had never met into his soul mate. He made the news and everything. Promoted the heck out of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The story goes he found the woman with whom he planned on doing this on an airplane. She balked at first, but then relented. Leaving her family and the life she once knew behind, she joined him and they began their relationship. It bombed eventually and she flew back to her homeland citing the relationship was more like an experiment, which it basically was, and didn’t feel natural.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I found the man’s email address and emailed him, telling him that soul mates cannot be “made,” and instead had to be born into it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He didn’t take kindly to it and I suppose he was embarrassed the whole thing bombed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In essence, I don’t believe that you can reverse the soul mate energies. If the timing isn’t right at this particular time, perhaps it will be right further down the road. You just can’t force the soul mate relationship. Let it happen on its own accord. It stands a better chance at succeeding.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope this helps! ;o)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;********************&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you have a soul mate question and would like my assistance, you are welcome to fill out the online form at my website, The Soul Mate Queen, at &lt;a href="http://www.soulmatequeen.com"&gt;www.soulmatequeen.com&lt;/a&gt;.

How can I tell? &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: This is one of the most common questions that people ask me. I'm in love; but is it the real thing?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First of all, if you are in love with this person, he is your soul mate. Just as there are varying degrees of love, there are varying kinds of soul mates. Sounds to me like the companion soul mate relationship since you mention lust, too. All companion soul mates, unless they choose not to for various reasons, involve intimacy and/or love-making. This sounds to me like something beautiful you share with someone and I commend you on that!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Second, as with all companion soul mates, he has come into your life for a reason. Is it marriage? Is it to produce offspring? Who knows, but one thing is for sure, he is meant to be a part of your life. No two soul mates come together without a purpose. That would be silly, wouldn't it? That's how you can differentiate acquaintances from people with whom you share a soul mate bond.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's common sense, though. If you are in love, you are in love. You feel it, it makes you happy and fulfilled and you want to spend the rest of your life with this person. A natural thing to happen to two people who are soul mates.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now if, for example, for some ungodly reason, you two should part because of differences further down the road and then you come back to me and say, "Dorothy! How could you tell me a year ago (or so) that he was my soul mate when I never want to see his face again???"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let's hope that does not happen to you, but it does happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you know what I would tell you? I would say, "When two people come together as soul mates, there is a purpose for them to do so, but when that purpose has been realized, the two may part but that is not because they weren't meant to become a part of each other's lives, but it's because their mission together has been accomplished. When this happens, the two begin to feel like they are drifting apart and they don't know what's going on. Well, what is going on is that their inner self is trying to tell them that there are other soul mates out there that they need in their life in order to be complete.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's sad, really, but this is the nature of things especially if you are just starting out in life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You need to go through necessary steps in order to be complete and it may take one, it may take several, soul mates to help you with this, but every last one of them that come into your life are important, and necessary.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My advice to you is to: Live, Love, Learn. Live to your highest expectations, love like there was no tomorrow and learn what each soul mate that enters into your life is meant to teach you about life, about yourself, and about why the two of you were brought together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once we do this, we are that much closer to finding Higher Self.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope this helps!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love and Light, Dorothy&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~*~*~&lt;br /&gt;Dorothy Thompson&lt;br /&gt;Author, Syndicated Relationship Columnist, Soul Mate Relationship Coach&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.dorothythompson.net"&gt;www.dorothythompson.net&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.soulmatequeen.com"&gt;www.soulmatequeen.com&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you have a question you would like answered about the soul mate relationship?&lt;br /&gt;Fill out the online form &lt;a href="http://www.soulmatequeen.homestead.com/FreeRelationshipAdvice.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/28103390-115245528096543274?l=soulmatequeen.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://soulmatequeen.blogspot.com/feeds/115245528096543274/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=28103390&amp;postID=115245528096543274' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/28103390/posts/default/115245528096543274'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/28103390/posts/default/115245528096543274'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://soulmatequeen.blogspot.com/2006/07/is-he-my-soul-mate.html' title='Is He My Soul Mate?'/><author><name>Dorothy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02130829722787925433</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://dorothythompson.homestead.com/Dorothysm.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28103390.post-115197603784022989</id><published>2006-07-03T20:11:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-07-03T20:20:37.853-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Can We Love From Afar?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5846/157/1600/tree.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 163px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 156px" height="156" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5846/157/320/tree.jpg" width="214" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;Q: I have a question regarding a person in my life I believe is my true soul mate. We met nearly 2 years ago and our connection was more complete than either of us had experienced before. I have never been married, am the mother of a 14 year old son. When we met he was going thru a very nasty divorce. We were together and then for reasons due to his employment, he is a consultant, we have been apart. He is in Hyderabad since 10/04. We have kept in touch via email and have seen each other twice since he left. We both feel as if we are soul mates and openly share these emotions but I desire so much for him to be back in my life in a physical presence. I guess I am wondering how does one sustain loving so much from so far away and why did it happen to begin with? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;A: Thank you so much for your question!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Actually, your question is quite common. How do you sustain a relationship from afar and why did it happen in the first place?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe that this person who came into your life did so for a very important reason. The vibes are there...everything seems to be in synch, so why is it that he cannot be in my life physically and how do I get through this without losing my everloving mind?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, the secret is this. You and this man have touched on a spiritual level. You've already made physical contact, and that's a good start because the instant you meet is when you feel the spiritual connection. If it's not there at the beginning, it's not the true soul mate bond.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, let's just say that the spiritual connection is in place. What do you do now?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The best advice I can give you is not to obsess.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Get involved in things you like to do or you're going to get yourself into a state that is not compatible with the soul mate experience. In other words, be happy within your present life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By not obsessing over this, you'll accomplish two things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One, you'll be doing something productive and this can only be positive towards your self-fulfillment, happiness and self-growth (no matter how old you are, you're still growing mentally).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And two, the soul mate in question will look to you in better light. Sure, he probably knows that he's missed, as you and he are on that same spiritual realm, but he will see a strong woman; a woman who can withstand being apart from him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What will happen is that his psyche is going to do two things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He's going to see you as someone who can withstand the pressures of life and can hold up her own end when faced with a challenge.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And, two, he's going to try even harder to find a way to be with you because he's not the subject of ALL your interests as you have become a productive, busy and happy woman.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See how that works?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, in time, if it's meant to be, it will happen. If everything is in place, both your and his psyches are in the right frame of mind and both of you are leading productive and happy lives on each of your ends, only positive results can occur.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, if it does not happen, you have to look at why it is that caused the block. Is it out of your hands? Can he not come home because he is employed so far away and it's not possible?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or, does the spiritual connection exist over time and space and bring two lovers who are meant to be in each other's lives together?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'd love for you to keep in contact with me as I'd love to see what happens over time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope this helps and if you have anymore questions, please feel free to ask. ;o)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love and Light, Dorothy&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~*~*~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dorothy ThompsonAuthor, Syndicated Relationship Columnist, Soul Mate Relationship Coach&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.dorothythompson.net"&gt;http://www.dorothythompson.net&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.soulmatequeen.com"&gt;http://www.soulmatequeen.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you have a question about the soul mate relationship?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fill out the online form &lt;a href="http://www.soulmatequeen.homestead.com/FreeRelationshipAdvice.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/28103390-115197603784022989?l=soulmatequeen.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://soulmatequeen.blogspot.com/feeds/115197603784022989/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=28103390&amp;postID=115197603784022989' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/28103390/posts/default/115197603784022989'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/28103390/posts/default/115197603784022989'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://soulmatequeen.blogspot.com/2006/07/can-we-love-from-afar.html' title='Can We Love From Afar?'/><author><name>Dorothy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02130829722787925433</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://dorothythompson.homestead.com/Dorothysm.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28103390.post-115151244038919760</id><published>2006-06-28T10:28:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-06-28T11:34:00.440-05:00</updated><title type='text'>How I Became a Soul Mate Expert</title><content type='html'>A while back, I had someone question my abilities as a soul mate expert. According&lt;a href="http://thewriterslife.homestead.com/soulmatequeentshirt.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 161px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 159px" height="166" alt="" src="http://thewriterslife.homestead.com/soulmatequeentshirt.jpg" width="270" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; to my website, she stated, there was nothing proving my abilities to be an expert, only my self-professed claim to be one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At first, I couldn't understand why she was questioning my abilities until it dawned on me that she was right. I do not have a diploma stating that I graduated from so-and-so university, so why would people actually believe what I had to say had any merit?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know why and I'll explain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are some people out there - many actually - who are born with a gift. It might be the ability to see things that aren't there or even the ability to perceive things they have no way of knowing. It was about two years ago or so when I had the privilege of talking to well-known psychic, &lt;a href="http://www.robert-egby.com/"&gt;Robert Egby&lt;/a&gt;, who actually teaches those who seek to learn how to become a psychic by trade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In one of our online conversations, I happen to ask him if he were wearing brown shoes. He answered, "yes." I also asked him if there was a gold framed picture on the wall near him and, again, he said, "yes." He asked me why I asked.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I told him because in talking to him, I could "see" these things and wanted to know if perhaps they were definitely there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He then told me that I had the gift of spacial clairsentience. I asked him what it meant and he said "to see afar things that aren't in front of you."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I thought that was interesting as I had found one of my gifts that my creator had bestowed upon me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was after this conversation when I wondered just how many people out there had gifts and didn't even know it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My ability to know about the soul mate theory is correlated to this gift.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ever since Mr. Egby and I spoke, I delved into my innerself - with meditations and private soul talks within myself. After my twin soul died, I tended to do this quite often and chose a corner of my little heaven on earth - underneath the pines overlooking the gigantic corn field - and while I was sitting there, listening to the sea gulls flap and cry overhead, I knew that this was what I was intended to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was then that I understood why I had experienced good relationships, bad relationships and in between - and after fifty years of doing this, I found the wisdom to try to help people with their own relationships, but it went deeper than that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before my twin soul died, I wasn't what you would call a spiritual sort of person. I was a fly by the seat of my pants type of girl and figured everything that was happening to me - bad and good - was just a part of life. However, after he died, I questioned my spirituality. How could my creator bring someone in my life and take him away just like that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I happened to be in a bookstore on vacation and I picked up a book called &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0876044151/dorothythomps-20.html"&gt;EDGAR CAYCE ON SOUL MATES&lt;/a&gt; by Kevin J. Todesh and I read it. That book helped open my eyes to the reason why my twin soul came into my life, and then so abruptly left it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;He was my twin soul.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, I thought, what about the others in my life who at the time I just knew they were the ones for me? Didn't they start out with high hopes and a bright future? Didn't I love them just as much?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That was when I started reading everything I could get my hands on to explain what this soul mate thing was all about - and that was the beginning of becoming an expert in my field.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't believe that everything you find out in life can be found in text books and a lot is learned through life experiences and tuning into your innerself. I also don't believe you need a college education to know that this can't be learned through intuition and an incredible foresight. Experience plays a major role in becoming good at what you do. They say practice makes perfect and I believe if you believe in yourself, you will find the answers to what you are looking for. The key is to find out how to unlock that door.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've talked to people who are looking for their soul mate and they tell me that after all their searching, they still can't find theirs and this makes me sad because I know there are soul mates out there for them. If you have a question on soul mates, please write to me at soulmateexpert(at)yahoo.com and I will help you find the answers you are looking for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you would like more in-depth reading on how to recognize your soul mate, my eBook, &lt;a href="http://www.dorothythompson.net/Find_and_Keep_Your_Soul_Mate.html"&gt;HOW TO FIND AND KEEP YOUR SOUL MATE&lt;/a&gt;, will help you do that. If you would like to read a collection of true soul mate stories from around the world, my book, &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/155410095X/dorothythomps-20.html"&gt;ROMANCING THE SOUL&lt;/a&gt;, would be perfect for that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No matter which way you do it, finding out the real reasons why certain people come into your life is the key to your own happiness and well-being. Once you understand the powerful impact these people have on your life, you won't need an expert to tell you how to run your relationships.

Although I still post relationship advice on my other blog, &lt;a href="http://www.soulmateadvice.blogspot.com"&gt;Are You My Soul Mate&lt;/a&gt;, I thought I'd try something a little different with this blog.  You'll not only find relationship advice and my latest columns, but this is where I'll also have interviews with top names in the relationship field.  I'm really excited about it.  If you'd like to sign up to receive notification when these interviews are posted, there's a handy dandy form to your right.  Your email addresses will not be spammed, so please sign up so you'll not miss out!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are an expert in the relationship field and would like to be interviewed, send me an email at soulmateexpert (at) yahoo.com.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you have a question about the soul mate relationship or anything dealing with relationships and would like some unbiased help, send me an email at the same address above.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;May all your soul mate dreams come true and we'll see you next time!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/28103390-114764825734078750?l=soulmatequeen.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://soulmatequeen.blogspot.com/feeds/114764825734078750/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=28103390&amp;postID=114764825734078750' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/28103390/posts/default/114764825734078750'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/28103390/posts/default/114764825734078750'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://soulmatequeen.blogspot.com/2006/05/welcome-to-magical-world-of-soul-mates.html' title='Welcome to the Magical World of Soul Mates'/><author><name>Dorothy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02130829722787925433</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://dorothythompson.homestead.com/Dorothysm.jpg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry></feed>
