This discussion is mostly aimed at those who are advanced and are mature.
I'm wanting to know who else is feeling that they are just not that interested in relationships or sex anymore.
I have been fine with established lovers here or there over the years without getting right into a relationship with them. (Based on mutual respect and trust). However, it was surprising to just turn off meat and animal products overnight, now I'm overcoming alcohol cravings and am conscious (and now desire to) giving it up altogether just as I always knew I'd become vegetarian again. I'm wondering if chocolate is next in attempt to keep eating only the purest of foods.
I've been meditating everyday and it's doing wonders.
But, I have a hunch that I'm not as needy now and whether I'm going to manage? I really enjoyed a beautiful night alone (Saturday) last night as I made an organic salad and did my own thing. I got up and saw the stars out this morning and enjoyed the peaceful surrounds.
I'm not sure if I'm wanting to join my energies with someone that is not vibrating at the same rate anymore. We have all had dysfunction but joining with someone who isn't trying to attain to be spiritual - you just don't know really.
Any thoughts? If you've been single and on your path alone and managed well, I'd love to hear.

I don't think a relationship in this lifetime is the be all and end all. Spiritual development is quite a high priority.
Thanks Barbara,
Yes I feel that someone who is not at the same vibration is just mainly stressing or draining me.
Thanks for your post
Exactly Rick,
You express it very well.
hi Flashes
I'm mainly giving up the sugar within the chocolate, for health reasons. But cacao - no problem making up something yummy with that.
Hi Butterfly - I used to be into sex a lot, but not anymore. I think it's partly due to my age. I'm 55 not 20! How old are you? Sex does diminish with age I think, but I do have less interest in sex because I want something deeper. I often feel rather empty after sex. Very good that you are meditating! I should do it more regularly.

Hi Ulf
Well I can relate to wanting something deeper now. Being in my prime, it's really not like me to just 'go off it' mainly because I feel that men are just wanting to draw something out of me for themselves.
Meditation seems to be working as a result information resource centre or guide. It's amazing. I've found some great solutions by meditating whenever I've been stressed.
Hi Indigo
There is a book called 'Aphrodites Trade' by Locklainn Seabrook which came to mind when I read your response. He goes on to explain how sex was mainly a contract according to anthropologists. Men were in bachelorhood groups, and women also lived in large groups in communities. Some were lesbian groups, that helped raise children together, full of nurturing (no violence).
The men were only viewed as 'seed' for offstpring as well as a gender who could provide food. They were willing to provide it to the women who obliged and gave them sex in exchange.
Marriage had been invented as pure ownership.
This is an interesting link on where the word 'romance' started from:

The tribe group setting is very much a Pleiadian trait. You see it amongst hippies - and in fact - I think they have wonderful ideas where the world could learn from their ways. If anyone ought to rule the world, it ought to be hippies.
I miss touch with warm love in it, so know what you mean. However, having a soft nature, I'm so over all of the manipulation and harassment I received for my polyamorous lifestyle (which is now coming to an end).
It will be good when you finish your psychology degree. I think you will be highly sought after.
