Have you already met your soulmate? Or are you aching with emptiness, hoping to meet them?

There’s nothing quite like the rush of feelings that comes from meeting a soulmate. The feelings go way beyond the typical “butterflies in the tummy.” In fact, meeting your soulmate can be overwhelming in wonderful ways. But sometimes, it can be overwhelming in frustrating ways.

You’ve most likely already met at least one soulmate in your lifetime. And it’s possible you didn’t even know it! Soulmates come in many different forms. Sometimes the experience of finding them can be a challenge. But the type of soulmate we all wish for is the one that fills us with joy and delight.

Once we look at soulmates from the proper perspective, we can understand what they truly are and why they are sometimes challenging.

Following are seven tips that can help us:

1. Soulmates are not always love But soulmates that are love mates can be some of our most difficult relationships.
2. Soulmates can be any gender, including your own.
3. A soulmate can be your best friend, your professor, your boss, or even one of your parents.
4. Soulmates exist due to our connection with them from past lives. They have a specific path with us.
5. Soulmates can be here to teach us or to learn from us. But, until we learn or teach those lessons, our soulmates will remain in our paths, both in this lifetime and in future lifetimes.
6. A soulmate can frustrate us, challenge us, or even anger us.
7. All soulmates are important.

The rush of meeting a soulmate that is a lovemate can cause a flurry of strong emotions. We feel we know them more deeply or even have “memories” of them that couldn’t have happened in this lifetime. That feeling is your soul’s connection to the other person’s soul from an experience of a past life.

Weeding through challenging soulmate connections in search of a lovemate can be tiring. Yet, we may not appreciate that these types of soulmates are preparing us for that one true lovemate we hope for.

For some, the experience of finding a lovemate takes longer than for others. That’s not because you’re doing anything wrong; there must be a synergy between the two of you. As you go through your changes and learn your necessary lessons, so is your soulmate. In time, the synergy builds up to a perfect unison.

Be patient. You and your love mate will find each other when the time is right.

Best Personal Love Psychic Readers

If you’re struggling in your relationship, chances are… you’ll blame yourself but take it easy as it may not be your fault. Yes, you can blame modern technology, which benefits your life in many ways but could be hurting your romantic life.

Here are seven modern romantic pitfalls and how to avoid them:

1. Dramatic Advertisements
   You know those really insane ads that use high drama to sell you something? Whether it’s a cup of coffee or a watch, these ads go to extremes to prove that your life could be better. And you’re so used to seeing it that you start to believe your life has to be just as dramatic and extreme. The truth is that the best relationships have their mundane and even boring periods, and that’s okay. It’s the price you pay for security and stability.
2. Instant Gratification
   We rarely have to wait long for anything these days. We can get a pizza delivered in under 30 minutes, so giving a relationship time to improve seems unreasonable. However, perfect love takes time to achieve and constantly evolves. Therefore, great relationships are void of instant gratification.
3. Social Media Blasting
   Do you turn to social media when you’re fighting with your partner? Perhaps you do it to gain support or just feel like publically shaming them for wronging you. It’s a mistake. Instead, keep your tiffs private and give your partner the opportunity to make things right before putting them on blast. Once you put something on the Internet, it stays there forever.
4. Texting, Not Talking
   Love is an all-sense experience. It needs to be heard, seen, tasted, touched, and smelled. However, a good portion of couples prefer to communicate via text. The problem is that the meaning and sentiment of their words get lost. Texting is an impersonal way to communicate, even if you use emojis. If you have something important to say, it’s better to call them. Even better than a call is a face-to-face meeting.
5. Multitasking
   You may think you’re listening intently to your partner vent about their day while you’re checking social media or texting on your phone, but you’re not. Not only are you not giving your partner the attention they deserve, but you’re also not paying close enough attention to whatever you’re doing on your phone. Our modern society prizes multitasking, but some things deserve your full attention—especially your relationship. Put the phone down. Better yet, have a technology curfew every night so you can focus on other important things.
6. Sex First, Love Later
   Some dating apps normalize casual sex to the point where many people have sex first before falling in love. That’s fine if a hookup is all you’re looking for. But some people actually want to have a relationship and are investing emotions into strangers. Sex is easy; love is not. So if you always lead with sex, you may not find the love you want.
7. Fear of Dependence
   Some people worry that falling in love will cause them to lose their independence. As a result, when in a relationship, they don’t spend nearly enough time with their partner as a team. If you feel your relationship hinders your personal growth, you must look at love differently. Healthy relationships are between two people who navigate their individual journeys together.

Take the Hard Road

Think about everything your parents and grandparents did to find and keep love. Your journey is much easier in many ways. The effort they made translated to more risk but also greater commitment. The same is true today. The more you put into something, the more you’ll fight to keep it, and the more effort you’ll receive in return from a partner. Just because there are easier options doesn’t make them better.

One of the most common reasons someone calls a psychic would be their love life. Let’s get real. Wouldn’t it be great if you could just call up a psychic and have them find your soulmate for you? Or, when you’re in the middle of an argument with your lover, you could call your psychic and have them tell you whether you should bother salvaging the relationship.

Actually, no. We’re all here to learn lessons in life, and we learn some of our greatest lessons through relationships – and that includes both the ecstasy and the heartbreak. Life would be sorely diminished if we didn’t find – and lose – love of our own accord.

However, although no psychic can find love for you, a talented psychic love reader can do a lot to help you navigate the dating minefield with greater success.

Working Out What You Need Right Now – and What You Don’t

Through reading your aura and sensing your energies, a good psychic should be able to pick up on your relationship needs. For example, perhaps you need a strong, decisive partner to lean on; perhaps you need someone who will put the fun and frivolity back into your life; perhaps you need someone who is committed to starting a family or someone who won’t balk at your desire to travel the world.

We’re all different, and our relationship needs to change as life evolves. Your psychic can help you pinpoint what state of life you’re in and what you need a partner to bring you right now. Equally importantly, a psychic can help you determine what you do not need. Not another guy whose mother is on a pedestal, please. Oh, and not another guy who thinks the accounts are more important than your birthday.

By understanding your own unique relationship needs better, you can get a head start on the type of person most likely to click with you.

Breaking Free of Past Relationship Patterns

Unless you’ve never had a relationship before, you’re entering the dating game with your very own emotional baggage. For whatever reason, your previous relationship didn’t work out – and perhaps the one, or three, before that didn’t work out either.

With the help of a psychic, you might be surprised to find that the patterns you’ve lived through are surprisingly similar from one relationship to the next. A good psychic will have insight into what went wrong in the past and why – and how you can avoid making the same mistakes again.

Often in life, we repeat the same cycles, over and over, until we finally learn the lesson. But, with the help of your psychic, you can learn this particular love lesson so much faster, opening the way toward a more successful and lasting relationship.

Finding Mr or Ms. Right

OK, so you know what you need from a partner and how to avoid previous mistakes – but where are you likely to find the right guy or girl for you? This is where your psychic comes into their own, with a glimpse of future possibilities.

Ask for information about where you might find love. It’s unlikely that a psychic could tell you, “Next Tuesday – the guy who trips over in front of you on the subway steps!” – the answers you get are more likely to be quite cryptic. However, at some point soon, you’ll find yourself in that position, and things will suddenly make sense. A good psychic can help you be more aware of the kind of situations where love is likely to arise – and this can help you get one step closer towards the lasting love you’re seeking.

“Take every chance you have so that you won’t regret it!” or, “I shouldn’t have let that happen…” You know the process. You do something; then you realize you did something you wish you didn’t do.

Maybe you broke someone else’s trust, and now you’re overwhelmed with guilt. Perhaps you compromised on your principles in some way, and now you’re terrified that your world will come crashing down. But, regardless of what you did, you can feel your anxiety like a sack of red-hot bowling balls surgically implanted in your gut. (Too dramatic? Perhaps. But regret is rarely reasonable!)

It’s the dreaded, “Oh no! What was I thinking?” moment when you know you’ve done something you shouldn’t have, and you see only two possible outcomes: either, “I might not be able to fix this!” or, “I’m certainly going to lose something important!”

Both of those things might be true. In fact, they often are. Actions do have consequences. We do lose things all through life. Nothing is permanent, not even the most secure relationship. But none of this has to be catastrophic.

Sometimes, losing one thing leaves you open to something else. It may be a lesson that helps you become more effective and happier in the future. Or, it could be a new possibility that you never even considered the possibility of actually seeking, like that dream you put off to go work that job you just lost. Then again, it’s possible that you won’t discern any benefit right away; maybe you’ll wish you went a different way, grieve what you lost, and then eventually let it go and move on.

The point is you will eventually be able to let go and move on.

And because you’re a strong, smart, capable person, you will certainly find ways to make this new direction meaningful for you. You will make up for what you lost by gaining something equally important in the aftermath, whether it’s a new understanding of your strengths, a new idea of who you want to be, or a new opportunity to try again but a little wiser this time around.

It’s hard to think that way when you feel your dream job slipping through your fingers or you miss someone who made your life fuller than it could possibly be on your own. What’s important to remember is that no matter what changes or what slips away, you can still do something meaningful and fulfilling from right where you are. That’s how to let go of regrets when they start overwhelming your sense of optimism and possibility. Need more ideas to let your regret fade away?

Here are some positive affirmations that may help you let go of regret.

Don’t even allow regrets. Instead, make each decision with the fullness of heart and mind. Try to view mistakes as lessons learned; they are not meant to be regrets. Do differently next time, and there will be nothing to regret. Try not to think “what if.” Live by all your heart, not by your head.

It takes time and patience, but try to think of all of the positives that came out of the situation. Trust that each experience is a lesson in the journey you’ve chosen and embarked upon. Embrace both the light and the dark, and trust that everybody is exactly where they should be on their journey in this life.

Don’t attach yourself to your emotions. Instead, breathe, reflect, learn, and forgive yourself. Then, recognize the emotion, let it go, and move on.

Regret is a waste of time. Don’t hold on to it. Instead, find something better to replace it. We may come to regret the time we spent regretting unless we’ve learned from the regrets and focus on making a more centered and peaceful now, where we strive to create fewer regrets and more love.

Having some regrets may not be a bad thing. They can make you strive for better. If you never had them, you wouldn’t grow spiritually. Your preconceptions of regrets determine how they affect you, positively or negatively.

Regrets are visitors in the guest house of the mind. But, like all feelings, they come and go. And sometimes, life gives you circumstances that simply have to be grieved. There’s no way around that. So feel it, review it, learn it, shed it.

Every time a regret crosses your mind, set your mind instead on something positive in your life. Every bad decision can be rectified, depending on how much work you’re willing to put into it.

Every feeling has a purpose related to survival. Regret can be useful. You can’t hope to change this fact because it’s simply part of life. You can instead learn to deal with feelings of regret by reflecting on them, then learning from mistakes, then finally letting go.
