I agree.  It is difficult to get back into it.  And I certainly know that feeling when you get overwhelmed and excited about another person and then scare them off with your intensity.  I think yo got some good ideas here on this site about how to back off .  Notice “the other” more.  Look into their eyes when you talk with another.  Notice when they are getting too much of you.

I used to hear this a lot “You’re too much”  or “I need space from you”  and it would hurt me till I realized yeah I was quite needy and neediness does scare people off.  So what I did was I got a list together of about 30 people that I could invite to my home for a luncheon.  We just had fun.  After that I felt like I had about 30 people now that I could perhaps call my network, that I could call.  This way I distributed my charms and my vibration .  When alone, I tried to up my own vibration by singing.  I am a musician and with a higher vibration and more peace in my soul, I did not come across so needy.  And most of all, I learned to be my own best friend.  When I am with others, it’s all about what can I do for this person or that, bringing joy to the event.  So it’s not about me.
