Weekly Divination Thread May 13, 2015

May I suggest rephrasing the question? In divination asking the correct question is half the answer. You don't want the diviner guessing what you meant because that fuzzes the line.

Firstly, "ever" is a very wide time frame. You might find someone 40 years on from now, after no relationships. Or multiple heartbreaks. Set a reasonable time frame. Like, "in the next year".

Secondly, "someone" is also very wide. An abusive relationship - does that count as someone? A year-long relationship, is that someone? A relationship that lasts 10 years and ends because you found the other person was cheating - is that someone? Or are you asking about a soulmate (if you even believe in such a person)?

Thirdly, divination is only a forecast. I'm sure you heard that old story about a girl who asked "will I pass the exam?", heard "yes", stopped studying and failed the exam. When I read your question, I interpret it that you're frustrated (and maybe lonely and heartbroken) with not having a long-term relationship. It may pay off to ask some more questions around that.

For example, maybe there's something you can actually do to ensure you meet someone. "Is there anything I can change within the next month to ensure I meet a person I will have a stable relationship of two years or more during the next half a year?" If the answer is yes, "What is it? Personal grooming? Clothing? Personality? Place to look for the person? Do I need to sign up for an internet dating service? Do I have to move to a different city? Which is it - London? Berlin?" You get the picture.

Note that I'm assuming that you actually want an answer and want to work towards your goal, instead of a dose of pat-on-the-back positive crap.
