Glass Owl,
This spread looks great. I've already copied and pasted it into my spread journal. I look forward to reading it, especially as it is appropriate for my current situation. Thank you!

OMG! I wish more people actually took the time to prepare themselves. I am so tired of people asking me about why they haven't found love, where they can find it, how wonderful this guy is gonna be, and how he's gonna solve all her problems. blah blah blah

It comes when you are ready for it. And never before then. I wish more people could grasp that.

Thank you for giving me an alternative that could actually help these women if I can get them to open their eyes enough to see the truth. I could kiss you right now.

This looks like a great spread and I hope to try it out soon, except I am still learning and I don't know if I would necessarily get anything out of it.

I did this spread and the results were interesting, especially with the card I pulled as for who is attracted to me and who I am attracted to, both majors, and the first was my soul/personality card.

Wow this was dead on! Thank you so much for posting this. I tried the short one and I'll probably try the longer one tomorrow. Everyone should try this one if they are wondering why they are single and what they need to do to find love.

This seems like a wonderful spread GlassOwl thank you so much for sharing!

I want to adjust it for someone who is not single but afraid to open up to love... I don't want to be presumptuous and change it without your permission so I was wondering what you think of the idea and how you would go about creating a similar spread only for when you are no longer seeking a love, you have it but you are not ready for it?

Thank you again

That looks perfect, thank you so much! I like the term "stumbling block" as well, very fitting
