They wanted to go out, have fun, and be sexually intimate, but they were not\u00a0looking to have a committed relationship with her.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>While it felt good to be asked out by men, this pattern of attracting men who did not want to have a long-lasting relationship with her made Sophia feel confused, frustrated, and used \u2013 especially if the man had said up front that he was looking for someone to be in a relationship, and even more so if she had been sexually intimate with him.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>What Sophia discovered while we worked together was that the reason she was continuously finding herself in the same situation was\u00a0<\/strong><em><strong>not<\/strong><\/em><strong>\u00a0necessarily because every single man she was dating was not interested in a having a committed relationship.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800080;\"><strong><u>It was because<\/u><\/strong><u>\u00a0<strong>she had a hidden belief that, if she slept with a man who was showing interest in her, that having that physical connection would somehow ensure that he would want to have more of an emotional connection with her.<\/strong><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">What would happen, however, is that she would feel overly attached to the man, begin acting\u00a0<em>as if\u00a0<\/em>they were in a relationship, and subconsciously begin demanding more time, attention, and affection from the man.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">What was even more surprising to her was that she also had a hidden belief that the man would eventually disappoint and leave her.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800080;\"><strong>So, subconsciously, she was attracting men who would confirm for her the hidden belief that she would not find a man who would love and accept her without her having to sleep with him, and that, even when she did, he would still leave her.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Now, it\u2019s important to understand that\u00a0<strong><u>Sophia did\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><em><strong>not<\/strong><\/em><strong><u>\u00a0want to continue repeating the same patterns<\/u><\/strong><em>.<\/em>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In fact, if you asked her, she would tell you\u00a0the exact opposite of that.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><u>However, because these beliefs were in her\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><em><strong>subconscious<\/strong><\/em><strong><u>, they were hidden from her\u00a0\u2013\u00a0in her blind spot\u00a0\u2013\u00a0and she was continuing to attract the same kind of man, take the same actions, and experience the same heartache time and time again.<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As we worked together, Sophia began to uncover more of the Love Barriers that were blocking her from attracting and receiving the kind of love she really wanted.\u00a0 As we did the HeartWork to remove those barriers, she began experiencing more success in dating \u2013 having more fun, attracting really great men who were interested in possibly having a relationship\u00a0<em>with her<\/em>, and finally meeting a wonderful man with whom she is living out the love and life of her dreams.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800080;\"><strong>If you\u2019re like Sophia, and you are\u00a0<\/strong><em><strong>tired<\/strong><\/em><strong>\u00a0of trying to stop repeating the same patterns, or, worse, you\u2019ve pretty much given up on finding the kind of love you want, then I want to encourage you and let you know that you, too, can have the kind of loving relationship you want with a man who is going to truly and deeply love you for the rest of his life!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But here&#8217;s the deal: You have to be willing to take the steps to uncover the hidden barriers that are in your blind spot, blocking you from attracting and having the relationship of your dreams. Otherwise, the self-sabotage will continue.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800080;\"><strong>Trust me, if you knew what they were and how to stop allowing them to keep you repeating the same painful patterns, you would have already done it.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Sometimes it takes working with someone who can lovingly guide you to see what you haven\u2019t been able to see on your own. Then, once the barriers have been uncovered, we can get to the work of breaking and replacing them with new thought and behavior patterns that will allow you to easily and effortlessly attract the love you desire into your life!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>If you\u2019re ready to stop \u201ctrying\u201d and you want to really get past this once and for all, I\u2019ve opened up a few spots on my calendar next week, and I\u2019d be happy to help you have your love breakthrough!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800080;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/clicks.aweber.com\/y\/ct\/?l=7MJVc&amp;m=3hGw.iGP.ELqAny&amp;b=dij1ZsExtRyzYTvM50c3dw\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en&amp;q=http:\/\/clicks.aweber.com\/y\/ct\/?l%3D7MJVc%26m%3D3hGw.iGP.ELqAny%26b%3Ddij1ZsExtRyzYTvM50c3dw&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1501818795766000&amp;usg=AFQjCNEUNyDgDd4X8P2QGFFRX5qbG36i9Q\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Simply click here to schedule time for a Love Breakthrough Session, and we\u2019ll do this together!<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Remember: You deserve to finally be happy and in love with a man who deserves and desires you!\u00a0 Isn\u2019t that worth doing what it takes to removing whatever\u2019s in the way?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">No matter what\u2019s happened in the past, you can break the patterns that have kept you stuck in heartache.\u00a0 Let\u2019s talk and breakthrough those patterns together!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800080;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/clicks.aweber.com\/y\/ct\/?l=7MJVc&amp;m=3hGw.iGP.ELqAny&amp;b=dij1ZsExtRyzYTvM50c3dw\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en&amp;q=http:\/\/clicks.aweber.com\/y\/ct\/?l%3D7MJVc%26m%3D3hGw.iGP.ELqAny%26b%3Ddij1ZsExtRyzYTvM50c3dw&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1501818795767000&amp;usg=AFQjCNH1wIF7Wm3boqwXi3kjkKymoIZldQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here to schedule your Love Breakthrough Session.<br \/>\n<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Gladys Diaz Have you ever really wanted to break a habit or pattern you see happening over and over again in your life, but, no matter how hard you try to stop doing it on your own, no matter how many books you read, videos you watch or teleclasses you attend, you still find [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5523,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,6,10,11,16,17,20,22,1],"tags":[37,47,50,56,57,58,59,63,68,70,82,87,88,105],"class_list":["post-5522","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-breakups","category-dating-2","category-hearts-desire-international","category-heartache","category-love-2","category-marriage","category-ready-to-love-again","category-relationship-advice","category-uncategorized","tag-breakups","tag-dating","tag-empowerment","tag-happiness","tag-hearts-desire-international","tag-heartbreak","tag-hope","tag-intimacy","tag-love","tag-marriage-2","tag-ready-to-love-again","tag-relationship-advice-2","tag-relationships","tag-women"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/heartsdesireintl.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5522","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/heartsdesireintl.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/heartsdesireintl.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heartsdesireintl.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heartsdesireintl.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5522"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/heartsdesireintl.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5522\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heartsdesireintl.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5523"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/heartsdesireintl.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5522"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heartsdesireintl.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5522"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/heartsdesireintl.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5522"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
