What can I do before I start that next relationship?

Before you start another one... Some of you ARE in the perfect place - do you realize?
Before you come together in your next relationship, that you come to the place of understanding that the way you feel is purely up to you. You've practiced moving up the emotional scale on many topics, so you are feeling pretty good about almost everything. And now you are in a place the Universe is going to bring to you somebody who is in that same vibrational place.
