This is why someone could be so into you and then all of a sudden disappear or why marriages seem to fall apart so easily or people cheat. They don’t leave because you aren’t good enough, they leave because they don’t feel good enough. Of course, like attracts like so you will always attract someone who has the same level of self-acceptance.
The world is fooled by people’s personas. They can appear to be really confident on the surface, but their shadow side will eventually show up in their relationships with others. When you search for a mate by matching up based on the persona (or personality profile), you are only seeing a small piece of the puzzle. This leads to finding a faux-mate, not a soul-mate.
A true soul-mate match can be found when you are fully self-aware and accept all parts of yourself, the divine and your human foibles. You don’t need to fix yourself or heal the past, you just be more conscious of all of you beyond your ego. When you see your amazing self beyond your persona, you can attract someone who matches that self-love.
Two self-aware people coming together creates a powerful, lasting attraction because they aren’t carried away by the infatuation or turned off by basic human emotional needs. They are more in balance emotionally, mentally and spiritually. They act like grown-ups in a relationship instead of playing little childish dating games of hide and seek.
When true soul-mates come together, it feels like home. They still feel all the amazing romantic feelings, but those emotions don’t carry them away to crazy-town. They get to experience their life together in nirvana, knowing they are just seeing more of their divine nature in each other.
