weird people drawn to me

[PurpleMist]

Sarian, I have had similar. I was extremely unwell once, on many medications to try and 'cure' me, I said a lot of things I shouldn't have. When I got better I felt such guilt at what I had said (I called someone chavy etc) but then accepted that I was unwell and didn't truly mean it. Then I fell out with a friend (unintentionally) she twisted everything I confided in her with when I was ill and turned ALL my old 'friends' against me. I walked away (albeit feeling hurt) because that was the best thing I could do for me. I found new friends who I can fall out with and make up and we are always there for each other whatever happens. I feel that I had a friend who was not really a friend and I found out the hard way but I learned from it and although it still stresses me out sometimes as I don't like mistruths being spread, I can only send her love and best wishes because she is human like all of us and hopefully in the long run will learn from this too.

In the meantime I am grateful for this and although I still attract 'weird' people into my life I am grateful for that too because this previous 'friend' who was not 'weird' turned out not to be a person that I would like to have in my life now.

((((((((((((purplemist)))))))))))))))))))) I'm so sorry that this happened to you. Yes, you have to watch who you allow in your life and who you share personal details with if you are afraid of them getting out, weird or not.

Thank you, I would have but I was so heavily medicated at the time (which was to apparently allow me to 'function') that I said things that I didn't mean and which I had no reccolection of (some of it). I have learned from it and have taken it as a lesson. I am much more careful who I let close to me now. I am grateful to learn from it and it has made me less judgemental as a person.

Occultist, intersting theory but if I'm that attractive it's only to the odds ones! I'm probably just average in the ordinary physical sense. I think what's at work is more of an energy level attraction.

Peaceful Mind, when I've had may horoscope done they say I would have skill with insane people so maybe you are on to something there. Still I wouldn't say it is me that is drawn to them more that they are drawn to me. Usually I'm just standing there unawares as they pursue me from across the street or the park or the store. But still I do mostly understand them - probably more than I would understand a person who was extremely boring and sane.

Neville, well now I'm just confused!

Uma, your list made me laugh but really the "weird, be with me" sign does worry me....I must remove it! And just to clarify I've got no problem with eccentric quirky people - I'm talking about uncomfortable weird that is the problem.

Purplemist, that is very similar to how I feel - or shall I say have felt in the past until the weird attraction became a problem in my life. How do you keep it on the positive side for you? And reading your post to Sarian, I'm so sorry that happened to you and glad you've found some good folks now. True a person can seem totally normal and not be a safe/good person at all. Vulnerable times are inevitable and at those times those who are close to us are who they are.

Sarian, thanks so much for the offer and I can quite relate to the frustration of being the secret keeper whose secrets got told. After a few decades it can make one a bit paranoid. But you know my feeling is why should I sink to his/her level? It feels like a moral code not to reveal these confessions somehow. And oh yeah sometimes they seem to try to attach with superglue.

They are drawn when they understand that you understand them and you to them because you can help them. If you chose to work with insane people you will get a lot of help…….. We can be drawn in many ways :O)

Sometimes we chose between what we are god at and what we want. Between goal and purpose in life and in the wishes we have……..

To simplify some things
Some people do what they are best at “a call in life” a goal not of their lower self / ego or something that the “personality” wants to do. When you do this kind of work you really feel that you are doing what you are best at and you are getting a lot of help while doing it.

I chose to follow the instructions I got when I were young and to an education as a child specialist, not because I wanted but because I am weary good at children and children with special need.

Today I am teaching students about child behavior and their parents, what to say and what to do when it comes to their children.
I am happy that I chose this kind of work, and I would recommend that everybody do what they are best at :O)….

Love and peace from me to you

Yours

A Peaceful Mind

…Ps.. You won’t regret it

You may look at the issue of having boundaries. You may be accessible & this is likely a good thing, but if you find your self being imposed on, then it is likely you are reticent to draw boundaries w/ others. It’s not rude to do so. One doesn’t have to be held hostage by a chatterbox.

It may be that they are naturally drawn to your energies. Nevertheless, having positive energies & being accessible doesn’t mean that you have to roll out the welcome mat for everyone that is attracted to your energies. Look at this like leaving your front door wide open for anyone to walk in just because the sofa looks cosy or dinner smells good!

I won't pretend that I'm not a little odd myself, but usually I am the solid steady one in comparison to those that seem drawn to me or fate seems to "set me up" with. For example this very day I was in a long line and a lady in the line talked my ear off the entire time. I could tell she was a bit unbalanced and lonesome so I talked (or rather listened) with her as there was no getting out of that line anyway. So as I looked up and down the line I saw there was no one else talking, nobody! So why me? Why did I end up in that line right next to her? I wonder is the universe reflecting something to me, about me that I find hard to see....or am I playing some sort of karmic role with these people...what???? In some cases it is easy to say I just listen and don't shut them down like most would do, but there are astounding coincidences where I am thrown together with them that defy the odds and goes way beyond whether I'm "too" polite.

Thoughts anyone?

PS - just as I was writing this post the idea of it being karma resonated hugely but still what does it mean???? I guess if I weren't too chicken to astral travel I could go to the akashic records and find out.

im convinced that we attract what we are to work with.. so the souls i work with in spirit i attract those same souls in life.. you cant help it and it times they may bother you because you can get tired of dealing with them or just feel like why i have to always deal with them.. more than likely something has been put in you to help them.. and sometimes we date the one we are to help and that bites us... they are brought to you to help not date but, its so deep spiritually sometimes we dont catch it right away...

All The Glory belongs to God Forever!

I'd much rather hang out and converse with the weirdos than the "normals." I can take only so much inane banter about sports, celebrities, lawn maintenance, how to BBQ, and what new car to buy. I also have a similar experience, Sunmist, but view this as a positive rather than a negative.

I also attract dogs and young children. I don't mind the children so much but I'm not a dog person at all, while I've gotten over my fear I just find their smell, hair, and slobbering highly annoying.

yes but what I am saying weird people will not play it cool. There might be other people intrested in talking to you but doesnt want to talk to the weirdo infront of you.
I have friends who are actors on film and Tele and we go out to eat when I am in LA and weirdos come over to our table start talking or try to touch my friends hair. My friend said to me OMG why am I attracting weirdos??
"Same thing" Non weirdos wouldnt be disrespectful and come over to a table when we are scarfing down pasta with our mouths full and ask questions. Only a weirdo would. You might not be attracting only weirdos might be attracting others just the weirdos stand out more.

I attract weirdos simply because I have the patience for them.

Working in the medical field teaches one a boatload of patience for all sorts of personalities, eccentric (I prefer this word to 'weird') and otherwise.
