Healthy Relationships Support Group
No relationship is perfect. A long-term relationship requires constant effort to understand each other, fix misunderstandings, solve problems and continue to grow as both individuals change and evolve. How we deal with our misunderstandings is the focus of this community. Join us to find support, get advice, and share your experience with your relationship.
I am not superstitious but I have had bad luck with women that go by a certain name. It's a common name. I have just had so many bad experiences with women that have this name. I am beginning to think that life is telling me to steer clear of women with this particular name. Lol
I've known 5 women with this name and all the relationships have ended badly. I find it to be a sign to stay away from women who have this name.
Not all of the relationships were serious but the bad experiences I have had have made me wonder. I won't share the name because I'm sure that their are people who go by that name on here.
My question is if you have had 5 relationships, (not all romantic) with women that go by a certain name. Would you avoid any other women you meet that go by that name?
Really dumb. I know but damn 5 friendships that turn to shit. Lol

Try to think of it as statistical probability of meeting women with this name more often that any other name and that statistically most relationships turn to shit anyway and that these factors are independent of each other.
Have you looked up the meaning of that certain name? I have also come to find certain traits in some name-carriers that match with their name's meaning. Nomen est omen kind of thing - that Latin saying has an origin with serious background...
I had contact with females with a certain name that were highly identified (obsessed) with power struggles and authority issues. They wanted to rule (with all means). Their name's meaning is about power, too.
Indigenious peoples take a lot of care and time when naming their children. They do think that the soul lives up to the meaning of that name. Okay, this may sound strange to many rational thinking people. To me it makes sense. And, yes, I am careful with certain names, too. I know their meaning by heart in the meantime and watch out.
Maybe looking up the name's meaning makes sense to you if you have not yet.
In other words, you are not being objective to that person, its sort of discriminatory in all reality.
Everyone deserves to be treated equally until they show us to treat them otherwise.
With that being said, I dated a guy with the same name as my ex-husband. Which is also my son's name. It was admittedly weird and, ultimately, the relationship didn't work but it really had nothing to do with his name and more to do with our compatability.
Having certain criteria/standards in dating is human nature. But we should really leave it to major things like them having jobs, or cars, or their own place...whatever our standards are.
Don't allow it to become a self-fulfilling prophecy...you might miss the perfect woman for you if you do!
