MonroeVonOh Posted February 28, 2009 Posted February 28, 2009 Do you ever get these gut feelings? Either it's about someone , or something ? When you meet someone new , you may get a gut feeling not to trust them or that something is "up" with them in some way? Or maybe suspect that your partner is cheating and you ended up being right? Or on a more positive note, thinking about someone you really miss and then all of a sudden getting this sensation in your heart that they are thinking of you at the same time or you run into them at random , or receive a phone call / e-mail ? I am going through something like this right now and it's driving me nuts ! Someone very close to me and I him , for personal reasons, went our different ways. We always knew that we had a special connection together that we have never shared with someone else , which makes this even more convincing for me. Sometimes when I think about him , I get this sensation in my chest and sometimes my ear even rings ( you know that saying , your ears ring when someone is thinking about you) and I feel very happy in that moment thinking about him , and I get this " gut feeling" that he is thinking of me too , and it's the same with the sad moments as well. It even goes so far as when I go out , I will hear and see things that remind me of that person. Not just a song on the radio but other little things. It can really get me down as I miss this person a lot and will for a very long time , and other times of course I am alright with it. Has anyone ever had a strong feeling that you will see a person again ? Or that you two aren't "done"? That some day, at some time, you two will meet up again ? And if so , did it happen? Or was it just wishful thinking maybe ? Does anyone have any stories of the connection being so strong with someone/ something that maybe they made things happen ? Or have had anything happen at all ? I am not crazy nor am I obsessing, I am just curious really and find it a bit odd with all the little things on a daily basis that I see and hear that remind me of this person and give me the feeling that we will meet again. It's a pretty strong feeling sometimes too. We are on no contact and I know we are both stubborn and will wait till the other contacts first I suppose ( if that is even what is going to happen really) It's been quite a while but the connection is still very much there , I just feel it , it's a gut feeling. Anyone ever feel anything like this at all ? Or know what I am talking about? I would love to see what every one has to say !
pandagirl Posted February 28, 2009 Posted February 28, 2009 Yes, I definitely have these moments, to where I feel like I am psychic (haha), though I know I am not. But hey -- there are things in this world that are unexplainable. The only person this happens with on a consistent basis is my best friend, who I have known for 22 years. Often times, she will call me AS I am calling her. We are pretty tapped into each other. About a month ago, I got a VERY strong feeling that I was going to see an ex of mine. As I was getting ready to go out, I absentmindedly put on a perfume that I hadn't worn in months and months -- the one he liked. Then I felt this overwhelming feeling that I was going to see him that night. What do you know? Walking home at 1am, I bumped into him on the street. It may be coincidence, but things like this do happen!
Yamaha Posted February 28, 2009 Posted February 28, 2009 Many times the first thoughts that come to you are pretty accruate and then you start analyzing them to death. Go with your gut.
OpenBook Posted February 28, 2009 Posted February 28, 2009 My gut instinct has always been right. Unfortunately, it's not very good at pinpointing exactly WHAT is triggering it. I can sense something's wrong, but I don't know what it is. My guesses have been 50/50 on the mark.
slimjim Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 i agree to go with your gut. i believe there is some sense that we arent fully aware off, some natural thing that we have phased out due to reason and thought. we get this "feeling" and then think it away, or think we are being paranoid and trying to trust someone....and then you eventually realize your gut feeling was right the entire time. i just went thru this with an EX i suspected of being unfaithful, went with instinct and found out i was right. it might not be right all the time, but with your self interest at stake and you get this feeling, it might pay more times than not to go ahead and check it out if you can.
sunshinegirl Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 My "warning signs" gut reactions are usually spot-on. However, my "happy feeling / they're thinking of me / 'we're not done' " intuitions are almost always wishful thinking.
Trialbyfire Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 My "warning signs" gut reactions are usually spot-on. However, my "happy feeling / they're thinking of me / 'we're not done' " intuitions are almost always wishful thinking. Yes, same here. Gut reaction is your subconscious mind taking inventory and reacting accordingly. Sometimes it's just low-level discomfort, in that something doesn't quite feel right.
LovieDove24 Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 My gut is usually right but I can never discern WHAT is sending off the warning signals. Therefore, I tend to spend more time with that person to get to the bottom of things. And whattya know, something ALWAYS presents itself. Its just a very strange phenomenon though. How can you, upon only knowing someone for days, hours or minutes, FEEL that something is not right about this person? How can you get a feeling that they are not good for you? I dunno but I am sticking to my gut from now on. No if's, and's or but's.
Isolde Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 I once had a crush, and was convinced we were going to get together at some point. I remember one day I drank a lot of strong coffee and walked out into the sunshine and had a burst of euphoria because I KNEW we were going to end up together. :lmao: He and I do have a fair bit in common, but in retrospect I don't know why I was so hopeful.
