You
wake up in a cold sweat from a dream that your partner
is cheating on you. Or there is an empty, anxious feeling in the pit of
your stomach when your partner calls and tells you they will be late
again. You fear that your mate is getting ready to end the
relationship, but how do you know for sure? Can you trust your
intuition?
We are always receiving
intuitive information about the people who we are in relationships
with, even when we are unaware that we are doing this. These simple
steps can help you to better discern if your intuition is
accurate.
1.
Listen to and write down your dreams, gut feelings, and other intuitive
impressions. Do not discount or ignore
them.
2. Do not jump to
conclusions.

Your intuition may be telling you that your mate is
being dishonest or it may be giving you important information about
your own insecurities and areas that you may need to
heal.
Your intuition may be telling you that your mate is
being dishonest or it may be giving you important information about
your own insecurities and areas that you may need to
heal. It may be you unconsciously fearing that you
will be abandoned or that you are worthy enough to have a good
relationship.
3. Be honest
with yourself. Spend time in quiet reflection and
journaling. Be willing to explore your fears. What might your intuitive
impressions be trying to tell you about you?
4.
Be honest with your mate. Communicate openly with them
about your fear of their infidelity. Listen to their response and check
in with your body and gut feelings. Do you feel more relaxed after
talking with them or does the pit of your stomach still churn with
stress and uneasiness?
5.
Heed the clues. Carefully observe the outer cues that
reinforce your intuitive impressions.
6.
Is there a change in your partner's appearance? Have
they traded in their faded worn shirts for stylish and trendy clothing?
Are they paying more attention to their diet -- or have they recently
joined a gym to lose weight?
7.
Pay attention to other telling potential signals of
infidelity. Are there unexplained phone or text
messages and does your partner hide the phone bill or close the
computer screen when you enter the room? Is your partner absent for
long periods of time with no explanation? Does he or she run to the
store for milk and come back a few hours later?
Your
intuition can help you to more effectively deal with either your fears
or your partner's actual infidelity. Our intuition can provide us with
guidance as to how to better take care of ourselves, as well as how to
negotiate the tumultuous ups and downs of relationship issues. It can
also help us to become more loving toward ourselves.
