Are you settling when it comes to love?
I see so much information on the internet about relationships and connecting with another person, and the fact that a lot of people are not sure if that's what they should be doing or if that's the person you want to be with.
That's when I look at many times, I oftentimes see people settling. Settling for someone who wouldn't be their first choice if they had a different option.
They settle for somebody who doesn't align with their true goals and desires and their true soul path.
For me, that is true intimacy, and it makes a lot of sense to me then that a lot of people are not going to be happy because you are settling. The people don't want to be alone.
And the matter of the fact is, if you are someone who doesn't settle, you may be alone for some time, maybe years, but that's okay because you're with yourself and then you know that you're not settling.
And so when the right partner does come along, you can go with it with your entire being, with a whole body yes.
& then it's useful to look at the wounds and the attachment styles and the traumas because, hey, this person is worth it, so how can you guys heal and develop enough so that you can have a lasting union together.
But I can imagine if this is not somebody who is actually worth it, then you would rather go off and explore things on your own and do your healing on your own.
A lot lot of relationship issues stem simply from the fact that you're settling and you're choosing less than you know that you're worthy of. Or you're choosing, it's not always about less, but you're choosing something or someone that doesn't actually match your soul's frequencies.
