Do you believe that the way in which you treat yourself attracts like-minded people into your life? I mean if you treat yourself with respect, do you then attract others who will treat you with respect and treat themselves with respect?

Most definitely!

Yes, I have attracted some wonderful people -- also some not so wonderful.
My Mom says I'm a 'nut magnet'!

I totally believe in that statement. That is why when I look at the people I have attracted - I begin to wonder about myself.

Absolutely!!

If you're not happy about how you're being treated by others in your life, start becoming aware of how you treat yourself, how you think about yourself.

Do something for yourself each day that you wish someone else would do for you.

If you do this consistantly, you're attracting being treated well - by yourself AND others!

Treat yourself as you would a loved one.

When you go through a rough time, treat yourself as you would a loved one who's going through a rough time. Be gentle and loving with yourself.

Most of us are raised to be tough on ourselves - and that becomes an automatic pattern, which attracts others who will treat us in the same way - keeping the status quo. But we can change it by becoming consciously aware, and by making conscious decisions to be good to ourselves.

I think you just said something that I need to be more aware of - like attracts like.

Thanks Illusions!!

I totally agree that we attract people in our lives... at our own level. Throughout the last decade as I started to pay more attention to what type of people I attracted into my life, I noticed a big change. As I started treating myself better and honoring my boundaries more, I began to attract more positive people into my life. It's like magic! ...not an instant magic, but a very slow yet pleasant one.

Absolutely. We are all vibration. I kind of see it like harmonics, when we meet someone who matches our vibe, its like a harmonic.

Like your point Cara-Philosophy re magic "a very slow yet pleasant one".

Yes, I think we attract people into our lives, for all sorts of reasons. Sometimes I think it's because we need to learn something from them. So even if we don't have an easy ride with that person I believe it helps us in some way. The other day I attracted someone who made me angry so I had to look at why that was. I also believe we attract people into our lives to love us and who we can love and people to help us. I think really we attract exactly what we need at any moment.

Yes in deed, the good, the bad ,and the ugly
