Hi All, been doing much soul searching for a while. needed to heal some past stuff and part of it is letting go of someone i care about and love but he doesn't feel the same way. he's a workaholic and could be seeing other women. i wrote the note to tell him how i feel and what i need to do to have the Universe bring my soulmate into my life. and if being honest with my feeling about him means i'll lose the friendship then i'm willing to do this because i need to set myself free from the bonds that hold me in the past. i told him that i wished he was my soulmate but he told me out and out that he doesn't want any strings...i do and want a healthy relationship with him or whoever the Universe sends into my life. this is hard for me because i'm not settling for less than what i deserve in my life. happiness, joy and pure unconditional love. i'm scared because i don't know what to expect..the worse most likely. i'll never hear from him again. :( peace and light. time to work,

Well done, Purple Goddess. Letting go of someone you love is so hard, if he`s right for you though he`ll come back and he`ll know it too. Stay strong, I`m sure you`ll be fine but it does take time. I left my husband 12 years ago after being in a relationship wich was going no-where but which I clung to because I thought it was as good as it gets. It was the best thing I ever did, I`m with my soul-mate now and I`m sure we`ll be together for all of this lifetime and many more. Good luck to you, you`ve made the right decision from what you say. Don`t settle for second best. Love and light Crystalmynx xx

That was brave!!! We have to pay attention to what people actually do, & not just what they say, to find out where the truth lies. You may have saved yourself years of suffering! Try to reward yourself & celebrate if you can. No one deserves to settle for repeated hurt, --especially not a Purple Goddess!!! Tarotphelia

I just wanted to add that I agree with these other people that you did the right thing. You had to be honest with him as well as yourself. This is a win-win situation for you as a result of your facing the situation realistically, even though it hurts right now, you will heal and become stronger because of it. Keep searching for your soulmate-I have a feeling, like you do, he's out there somewhere, waiting to meet his soulmate. Good luck and keep up the courage you must have...

Hi PurpleGoddess, I'm so proud of you! I know exactly what you're going through since I've been there and done that. Its your birthright to have all the good things in life. Truly believe it and remain positive, don't falter in your faith. The Universe will hear you and send you that one special someone your way. I know because it happened for me. :)

thank you for the support and the validations. i know i'm on the right path. now comes the hard part, not calling him to find out what his thoughts and feelings are. if he doesn't respond i told him that i would assume our friendship is over. i don't want to lose our friendship over the physical part but i can't do it anymore. i want love in my life before i give someone that part of me again. a friend send me a hand hold while i was going to the mailbox to post the letter. i felt her presence not knowing until i got back that she did it. sent her love and energy to give me the courage to do what i needed to do. peace and love. now the most difficulty part, standing by what i've said...

Purple Goddess - That took so much courage and belief in yourself to do that. I'm finding that the key is to feel love... true love within yourself and to let it shine outwards. Think positively and release resentment and sadness. Like attracts like. Love attracts love and good thoughts are like an iron shield keeping out the bad. I'm sending light and goodness... right now!!!! Did you feel it? Peace and Love ~

January, thanks. it did take alot of courage now it's tough not to call him but i have to do this if i want to have love in my life. loving myself first and foremost. being my "significant other" to myself first so the universe can do it's job. i think i did feel your light....for a brief 15 minutes i felt light then i had to work the 2nd job...it's too draining and decided on giving them my notice. i need time to get ready for the holidays and for school in january! massage therapy is around the corner. life has been a big learning experience this year! so glad that we've become apart of each other's lives.! peace and love PG
