Life and Afterlife Coaching: “Why Do I Keep Dating Someone Like My Mom (or Dad)?”

We choose our parent(s), grandparent(s), foster parent(s), or adoptive parent(s) due to future dharma we are meant to fulfil as a destiny in this life, and we also have them chosen for us based on karma from our actions in previous lifetimes. In a way, it is all your choice because karma from past lives was built on prior decisions. If we do not learn what we needed to know to fulfil our dharma through a parent, we will keep meeting people in the form of romantic relationships to learn that lesson with until it has been attained. The people who can teach us the same chosen lesson that can guide us to our life purpose will often have similar character traits, and that’s why they remind us of our parents. That’s the spiritual reason why we keep attracting the same type of partner. 


Furthermore, if we use the completed lesson to help others find a path to their own awareness and dharma, we establish helpful karma for future lifetimes. As a bonus, we can sometimes also annul the need to keep dating someone like one of our parents. However, we may still be attracted to a potential partner who shares positive common traits with one or both of our parents, because we have formed a belief in early childhood (a very impressionable era) that the behaviour of a parent is the way that true love is expressed. If you have had a difficult relationship with a parent or guardian in this incarnation, keep in mind that the person who gives us the most challenges also generates the most likely circumstances for self-improvement, and growth can ultimately open our hearts to giving and receiving more love. Obstacles are opportunities in disguise. The greater the hardship you’ve been  been trusted to transcend in this lifetime, the more magnificent your ultimate destiny could become.
