Some may refuse to risk their heart and choose to deliberately avoid love, and any potential pain or betrayal they anticipate will reoccur. Others may still believe themselves to be in love and prohibit even the slightest vacancy and opening necessary to permit new love as they choose to remain affixed upon an expired timeline, entrenched in the past, entangled and unable to separate, condemned to suffer from unrequited or lost love. Yet others may still compare every potential love interest to the prior love they continually mourn, having memorialized them upon an untouchable pedestal. Perhaps they may find all new contenders unworthy of their love, inadequate, less than ideal, unable to measure up to the standards, perfection, passion and intensity of their glorious lost love. There are many who simply prefer to live in the safety of the past with their memories, closing themselves off to new possibilities and opportunities. They may believe they will never truly and fully love another in the same way, if at all. For some, the vows of love and loyalty they pledged may still be active even though the relationship has expired. They may have permanently limited and restricted themselves with self-imposed curses of longing and yearning for “the one that got away”. Once a curse for unrequited love, yearning, or longing is established, suffering from unfulfilled love must be perpetuated; thereby prohibiting any long-lasting love that conflicts with the perpetual state of longing which must be maintained. The curse for unfulfilled longings becomes a mandate that permanently prohibits a mutually loving and fulfilling healthy committed relationship from developing and enduring.

Many of the aforementioned obstacles to love lie in the subconscious mind. A person may actively believe themselves searching for love and open to giving and receiving love. Whereas in reality, they have closed themselves off to love for a multitude of reasons. Many who continuously long for the fulfillment of a loving relationship fail to understand why love evades them although they make the effort to search for love and yearn for love.

Let us together unravel the obstacles to love by letting go of the past and the incorrect conclusions we have drawn that prohibit us from attracting and allowing new love from entering into our lives. By releasing our negative beliefs and our attachments to old love and expired relationships, let us create a vacancy and an opening for new love to unfold.
