Hello fellow seekers!
Im new to the forum and this is my first post!
Thank you all for providing this great place!
My question is, if I should tell my partner, about me being a wanderer.
My girlfriend and me are both on a spiritual path and live a real deep relationship.
In fact, its what I have been searching for more than 25 years.
We can share our deepest feelings and there is very little holding back of even sensitive subjects.
For some time now, I ve been investigating the possibility and I might be a wanderer.
Meditations and inner journeys on that quest revealed a clear 'yes'. You probably all know the implications of that by your own experience.
I would really like to share that information and insight with her. Keeping it to myself leads me to feeling somehow seperated from her, like having a secret, that I dont share.
This doesnt feel good at all
My concers in sharing this are:
She has a tendency to overestimate me, since I seem to be a little more 'developed' in certain areas.this results in her underestimating both her potential and the work she already has done.
Also she seems to be focussed on the qualities I have whilst not seeing her own qualities.
I strongly fear, that she would turn myself into something special (meaning more special than herself).
Which I fear might slow down her own progress.
I would appreciate any thoughts or experiences that you might have on that matter!
P.S.: i hope, I could put this in the right words. I seem to struggle with the language at the moment, since its not my native one...
