I have a client who was driven by a strong desire to never compromise when it came to choosing a partner that matched her intentions. After two months of dating someone she really liked and felt connected to the topic of children came up and they broke up…He wanted kids, she wasn’t sure…

Did they call things off too soon??

In my opinion, yes. They did. 

At the beginning of any relationship the best thing you can do for you and your future partner is to let go, have fun and focus on building a connection. Chemistry and enjoying each other’s company should take precedence over immediately delving into deep discussions about long-term intentions. When we turn around and look backwards on our lives, the lasting formula is friendship, fun and connection. Everything else builds from that. 

Yes, the question of your intentions will come up, and you shouldn’t lie or avoid the subject, but trust in the process of aligning intentions and allow the universe to weave a path that works harmoniously for both individuals. By letting go of rigid expectations and allowing things to unfold organically both people can embrace the journey of discovering shared values and creating a fulfilling life together. 

No one can be certain about their future so go in with an open mind and softness. You’ll be surprised by how wonderfully things can come together when we learn to let go!!
