Sixth sense

Most women I know have a sixth sense: female intuition; a force to be reckoned with.
I've learned from experience not to turn a deaf ear to that little nagging voice. It has become part and parcel of my life, warning me of potentially dangerous situations. It is yet to fail me.

Ignoring that little voice in the past has cost me dearly.
I dated a dodgy character of a man a few years ago. As the relationship progressed I saw little tell tale signs that I chose to ignore. I suspected he wasn't being faithful to me (all thanks to that little voice) but I chose not to believe it. I noticed certain aspects of his personality reflected in his behavior that raised a red flag but I chose to ignore that as well. I blamed it on unchecked paranoia. I brushed the seeds of doubt into the background and proceeded to give the relationship my all. Needless to say the truth always comes out. True enough, he showed his true colors and I came to the realization that my initial doubts about him were indeed warranted. Female intuition could have come to my rescue had I paid it mind.

I compare female intuition to an innate maternal instinct; a mother can always sense when her child is troubled. Usually the subconscious and conscious beings are distinct; with the subconscious for the most part beyond our comprehension.
I would like to think that this sixth sense is my subconscious coming to the surface to communicate with my conscious being.

Female intuition serves as my personal guardian angel. Protecting me from adverse situations if I take heed of it's warnings. As is always the case, all is revealed in due course.
