You don’t attract what you want. You attract who you are.

You don’t attract what you want. You attract who you are

The moment you’re happy on your own is when the right relationship enters your life (Myke Macapinlac)

Many people complain about not being able to find a partner, or finding the wrong one, or not being able to hold on to the right one.

Some blame everything on past partners, rather than focusing on improving themselves to a level that makes them good partner material.

Is the answer within ourselves? Do we attract what we deserve?

My mother used to say;
Try Smile and the world will begin to smile back !

Very true I have always found in my darker moods.
The dilema being when after time you are happy on your own and then someone comes along, what then???

will it spoil the happiness of being alone, that usually has taken a long time?? I realy can't answer that one yet.grin
Not sure sigh


Reflecting back on the past few centuries laugh and the revolving door of countless menfolk, I've always been happy on my own so maybe I wasn't really looking for a relationship confused


I think I just answered my own question laugh
Redex ~ Very good point, and it hits a nerve here. After a year or so getting over a relationship, being so happy alone, fulfilled, do we really need the pain? the effort? the opening of the heart again?

Then along comes somebody who knocks us off our feet and logic goes out the window and the Rose colour glasses come into their own . laugh cool cool cool
Your questions are always circular Molly laugh
Non, I agree with that saying...positivity attracts positivity thumbs up

Red, that is a slightly different issue. Being happy on one's own is different from being happy in one's own skin

Gol, you agree with the statement so thumbs up

Serene, circular is good cool
Prof, write my response for me so writing

laugh
Molly ~ at the risk of sounding stupid. Genuinely, When you say being happy on ones own, is different from being happy in ones own skin? can you elaborate on that, I don't quite get it.blushing doh
Being happy on one's own means not needing/wanting a partner.

Being happy in one's own skin could be that you are happy in your own company, or you could be equally happy with a partner.
Thanks Molly ! Gotcha. I just couldn't get the antibiotic filled brain around it for a second. Tks.thumbs up
you attract me very much, molly. That don't say much good about you then by you principle roll eyes
Tenner, it means fabulous things for you wink

And the fact that you don't attract me, means fabulous things for me too head banger


grin
Molly, love... stop fighting it. It won't work. It just will not (;

smitten
Holy Molly!wow I am attracted to a troll. does that make me a troll? laugh rolling on the floor laughing doh
Believe me Tenner, it will.
This is really interesting to me as I believe that positive attracts positive too. But I had a really intense relationship and I was smitten by him, but I was the positive, he was the negative, he loved my positivity, I tried to drag the negative out of him....it worked for a while because I kept trying to make things right, but in the end I admitted defeat, he was too hard to handle! But God did I love him, the chemistry was amazing as well doh
so im happy on me own ...the problem is that here .theres about 5 percent who you coud date ...other 95 are stone bonkeres have past problems never dealyt with ..are looking for dreams that will never happen . so just to say that's one in twenty .so chances of finding right person is hard ..how to rid the 95 percent and then sift throughtsort out others the 5 per cent ..this a hard job ..maybe better stay alone and party more .. and we do I suppose attract what we deserve .but takes time to know a person ...
" I tried to drag the negative out of him"

take someone as he is. Do not try to change him else you'd be loving your version of him rather than him! That's what mum told me.

Bull aside, why is negativity consider to be a bad thing? I am an extremely negative and pessimistic person. I imagine the worse and hope for the best. Why's that wrong? I don't get it.

OK typhoid mary. It works. mumbling
I attract what I dont want, what I want I dont attract, I really dont know what I want, I will when I get it,
Typhoblushing I would hate a totally SANE person I love a touch of insanity.
That says alot about me.
Hey neat, I find a bit of negativity attractive, as in they see things differently to me and I like to have a debate or two lol. But when it comes to everyday stuff it got draining. Id be like "hey the sun is shining, I've packed the stuff lets hit the coast" and he would say "it may rain later, the car needs cleaning, it will take us an hour to get there"
Or where I see the good in everyone and always welcome people into my home and life, and if they don't quite work out as I expected then I just be polite and keep back. He wouldn't let anyone in, would tell me not to talk to people or go out so much etc. In the beginning I found the fact he was quite possessive of me as nice, but towards the end I realised it was control....this is the negativity I was trying to drag out of him. I adored him, I wasn't going anywhere but in the end he pushed me into a corner blues blues
Map, maybe you are putting out the wrong signals so? dunno
Im sorry I find you attractive Map kiss
not you goldie sure your in the five percent so far ...think to when being on here codding and joking diminishes your chances ..like woul I go out with anyone that's here all the time and seen what does be said is of the wall cant imagine been with someone who takes this serious for me its just fun .when I has enough im off walking or to shed to work .....do really think its about 1 in twenty that are dateable so that says it all so then we say knock out 95 per cent sift throughthe rest say a hundred of these reduce down to say ten with ages and distance leaves about 2 and I cant find them
Greetings Miss Molly,

In the evenings I love good food and good music and good book.
Fly,nothing wrong with that at all! cheers

Thanks Rough, its mutualhug
I feel the lurrrrrrrrrrrrrrvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee heart wings

Map
What if something you had is what you didn't want because you had it, but now that you haven't got it , it may of been something that you wanted that you couldn't get.
But then you don't know what you want so how do you know you can't get it until you've got it.confused
Good goly Miss Molly you sure know how to blog..
This rounds on me
cheers
User, I hope Map has had 5 coffees to unjumble that laugh
Thanks User, I don't blog very often.
Just when an idea comes into my head cheers
Think it would be best read by a blind man to a deaf one.
User, Its easy, list what I have not got, list what I have got, take the square root and divide by 2, then multiply that by (x) 2-(y)2 The result means very little in terms of anything except magnetic attraction.
You forgot to half the pi.
professor
Share it around
User that sounds like one of the confusing calculations that i get myself in laugh
I think love unconditionally whatever and then none of the other stuff will matter heart wings

Molly I'm feeling it today too heart beating lips
Maths aside, The types of attraction are physical and mental, mental should always take precedence over physical, the best is obviously being attracted to someone both mentally and physically, sadly this is difficult and stops a lot of potentially good and rewarding relationships.professor
