    Hi Susanb

    Thanks.

    I am sure many others will provide a loving and insightful responses to your questions when they go through your post.

    I will provide my perspective here, which may or may not resonate with you: our intuition or gut feelings are stronger than any intellect in this world. In your case, what I pick up (both in terms of energy and words) is that you feel uncomfortable around her, she doesn’t bring out the best in you and you do not have the energy to deal with her. The answer is simple if you trust your guts: leave it at that until you are ready to deal with this friendship from your higher self (ie when you don’t feel uncomfortable, not walking on egg shells or not feeling so negative about this relationship). Be yourself and appreciate yourself for what your gut is telling you.

    Sometimes accepting situations and people as they are is the best form of remedy. With time, if you are meant to be great friends, universe will create the circumstances for that and you will be glad for listening to your gut today and then 🙂

    Lots of positive energy coming your way,

    Jasmine

    Hello all.

    I would like to 2nd what @JasmineJasmine is saying. Trust your instinct, sometimes your gut tells you to something that may not seem logical, but this built-in “intuition system” you have programmed inside of you serves to protect you. Internal conflict stems from disagreement between your brain (logical mind, question everything), your heart (acts on love and passion), and your gut (built in self-defense). Depending on various scenarios, one or more of these systems is working, and if two or more are working at the same time, that is when you feel unsure, undecided, and confused.

    If I were to prioritize what system you should listen to, your gut takes priority, followed by the brain, and lastly the heart. The brain questions too much, while the heart also hopes for the best. But your gut always wants to protect you.

    Love,

    Hi! Thank you both SO much for taking the time to respond. This is my first time posting on Tiny Buddha, and yesterday, I spent a lot of time reading through the articles here. What a great community. I felt better just having read other peoples’ thinking. I think over the past few years, I have really lost touch with my gut. Sometimes, as you know, it is hard to follow, and easy to confuse with fear…. I want to practice more mindfulness so I can really distinguish my gut’s voice, like I was able to in my 20s. But I really appreciate both of your responses. Thank you so much!
