He is deeply deeply spiritual, says he feels things, knows things, senses spirits and that he feels them around him all the the time....His mother was a medium and his whole family have this gift... in every other way he is great, perfect for me, surfs, works, is a musician and such a laugh.. im just worried that his spiritualism might freak me out if he starts telling me stuff I dont really wanna hear. We get on great -- do i meet him...or keep away - he seems lovely ... ?? Reply to this Question

 If he's truly a "medium" perhaps his spiritual friends can give him a heads up on your doubts. :)

 well im pretty use to this king of stuff
my brother is a "ghost hunter"
but I stay away from him when he goes on these ghost hunts..I went with him once time and I was so sacred I couldnt sleep for a week
So if you dont think you can handle it, then don't

Any person who has these regularly is one of those....I believe sometimes people we are close to can contact us beyond the grave through certain events such as electrical events, such as a TV coming on for no apparent reason as a way to let us know that they have moved on to the spiritual realm....but I don't believe that you can "sense them around you" any given time.....I think the things I refer to only happen between very close family memebers and even then it is a rarity.This guy who "knows things" and senses dead people around him is full of it.I would stay clear, he sounds like a nut case.

 And, you can break the ice with a ouija board :-), which, by the way, was invented with the name "Ouija" as a trade mark.

 I have a friend who is an exact description like you describe. Some people are more in touch to a different vibration and can sense/ talk to spirit.
I do believe there are some people with this gift. However,
what I don't believe is what Older Sister described, where so people take this and exploit it. Gypsy, Psychics w/neon lights. Those are all scams.
Some people are skeptics and my ex husband use to get angry with me for believing in ghost and spirits. But the fact of the matter is I've had personal and scary experience with the paranormal. There are so many things we still don't know about.
I don't think you should write him off right away.
Set up a safe meeting in a public area and get a feel/vibe about him.
Trust your instinct. If he seems creepy and crazy, then run.
But if you guys get a long great, then you might have gained a new friend. Just decide on how comfortable you feel about these things, and if you want, tell him you do not want to talk the "spiritual" stuff if it makes you feel uncomfortable.
good luck.

Spirits exist, practice with a Ouija board and you will know this. I do not recommend you do however.
Whether you want to stay with this man or not it your choice. But don't just base your opinion on his beliefs.

 I dont think you should write this guy off just yet.
Alot of people are spiritual and are in tune with themselves and nature.
We are not just bodies, we're spiritual beings also.
Some humans find this hard to grasp but it is a reality.
Give him a chance and meet him, as from what I understand he sounds like a balanced enough individual with his own hobbies outside of his belief/religious/spiritual system.
If when you do meet him he scares you off then by all means dont pursue this!
Remember true spirituals people dont mean harm to anybody they are about promoting peace.
Goodluck!

Wow, my hat is off to Oldersister."Spiritual" does not mean "spiritistic". In my humble personal opinion, being "spiritual" is something you can disagree with, but is OK; now, being spiritistic is closer to mere superstition.We hear a lot about people questioning religion, but we hear very little about people questioning spiritism. Of course, there's the guy who condemns it flatly.I don't know the guy, and perhaps he's only credulous, but does not sound like a balanced person to me.

It all depends on what he believes. People who live in that version of the world may very well experience spiritual encounters. They may be real or maybe they aren't. If he's functioning normally, I would suppose he's harmless.On the other hand its one thing to be spiritual in the "medium" kind of way, and its another thing to see and hear things that aren't there.One is a belief system, the other is psychosis. Its hard to tell which is which without more. Staying away isn't necessarily the best thing to do. But if you can't handle the weird or paranormal, then he's probably not a very good match.
