Energetic Connection
Energetic Connection
“Have you heard back from your friend?” she’ll ask, her eyes boring through me, and I’ll find a way to look the other way or change the subject or tapdance around the truth.
I don’t think she’d understand this empathy Jesse and I have developed so that we can feel each other’s thoughts miles away. She doesn’t think I should be dating just one person yet, that I should be enjoying dating in general but relishing my freedom. She insists I need to be on my own a while to figure out who I am. She doesn’t want to see me go from an abusive relationship to a new relationship with a man who is as wounded from his last marriage as I am. When what I tell her about Jesse doesn’t match up with her idea of what a romance should be, she tells me to forget him and move on. Even if Jesse and I weren’t spending every possible spare minute together, I couldn’t move on from what I’ve found. When you form this kind of soul-level connection with another person, you can’t just dismiss it if they miss a phone call and Jesse’s not the most organized man I’ve ever met…but I accept him as he is.
Maybe it was a mistake in telling Jan about discovering my “energetic connection” with him. At the time, I didn’t think anything of it. I was so surprised and overwhelmed to find myself inches away from the man Leo had prophesied that I ran straight home and called my two best friends, Jan first.
