Arranged Marriages.

Quote.

When your mind and heart are truly open abundance will flow to you effortlessly and easily.

Question:

Dear Deepak, I would like to know what your view is on Forced arranged marriages. I was forced to get married at 22, in the midst of my studies, when I was in no way ready to make such a decision or commitment. At the time I was at the getting to know stage with my now boyfriend. My "husband" went back abroad till I completed my studies. I have been stuck in the middle of these two men, not knowing what to do. As one came by force and the other was my choice. The man I am married to is not a bad person and does exhibit some similar qualities to myself. He married me knowing that I was not ok with it and then said it was ok that I was not committed! He now expects me to make up my mind and uses the word divorce to get me to do things. My boyfriend exhibits qualities I like but seems quite different to me, and it is a bit difficult to have a deep relationship because of our differences and I expect more compassion and love, which I have been giving whole heatedly being understanding of his differences – I do feel a bit drained now though as I don't receive things I feel like I need. I am not sure what to do. Was I meant to be with the man I married by force although it was not my choice? I am afraid if I do give in to it, whether I would be able to stay committed to him… This is a very complicated and stressful situation to be in and I feel so lost 🙁

Response:

Even marriages that start out as marriages of choice where each are head over heels in love, can change, become confusing and one wonders if a different relationship is the answer. So even though it may seem like this is about arranged or unarranged marriages, it really isn’t. It’s a matter of knowing your own heart. And it may seem that the right choice is choosing the partner who can give you more of the love and compassion you feel you need. But that is actually a self-deception because that feeling of lack of love comes from a lack of self-love and the only person that can fully fill that need is you. What you really need to do is discover who you love and want to grow in love with. It’s about the love you have to offer them, not the love they have to offer you.

Love,
Deepak

    My boyfriend broke up with me after years of dating. Things were relatively Ok, but for the past 6 months or so, he’d been acting kind of snippy and oddly sarcastic (I say “oddly” because we’re both kind of sarcastic people. It was just different, like bitter sarcasm). Suddenly he broke up with me. I need to get him back. My friend adviced me using love spell. I entered the website http://magical-rituals.com and order the most powerful love spell. And I don’t regretted. My lover back to me.
