Listening to your gut

0

Well, long story short, i have a ‘friend’ who seems nice in every aspect on the outside, but somehow I can’t help but feel like she’s out to get me, or that she has bad intentions. I have no idea how to deal with this, because I feel guilty if I both listen to and if i don’t listen to my gut feelings about her. Help?

Intuition, or "gut feeling", isn't some superstitious phenomenon. It represents the analysis that your subconscious mind makes everytime you are in the presence of something. In other words, you should trust it entirely. I do recommend giving this friend of yours some time and perhaps the feeling will go away. Don't worry, if she's bad for you, the feeling will stay.Best of luck and I hope it ends well.

Trust your intuition. Look out for yourself first. Your safety, health, and well-being are more important than your friendship with this person. Be polite and cordial, nothing more, and don't gossip about her. Don't give her anything that could fuel her ill intentions. Trust me, my sister-in-law is the same way, and when I told my brother about it, she manipulated it around and turned him against me.

Treat everyone with love and kindness. Lend her your ear when she needs it, give her loving, caring advice when she asks. Let her lean on you when she needs a friend. But, you don't have to give her control over you. She doesn't have to know all your deep personal thoughts, feelings, dreams, aspirations, ect. If you truly feel like she's out to get you, she may use these things against you. But if you treat her with nothing but kindness, she is the one losing a good friend.
