Nowadays, most people can’t recognize the signs that the universe is sending them. They’re too busy with their lives, and it’s easier to brush off patterns as mere coincidences. The choice to believe in these signals is up to you, but the universe sends us messages every day, free-of-charge! We can even use them to validate our intuition and help us manifest goals in life. If you don't know whether you’re ready to find love (or you’re unsure if it's with the right person), here is a list of signs that the universe wants you to be with someone.

Things You Should Know

Always trust your gut. Observe your energy levels around other people to determine if they’re a potential partner.
Repeating numbers (or dreams) can be a sign that change is coming–you might meet someone new or enter a relationship soon.
Don't be afraid to act upon your feelings if you feel connected to someone!

1

You have a strong gut feeling.

Intuition can be a powerful signal. It’s difficult to deny a strong feeling that appears in your daily life. When you feel something positive is about to happen, trust your gut and expand upon that feeling. It could guide you down a path of love or even manifest into finding the right partner.
- Gut feelings are guardian angels. If you’re around someone who makes you feel comfortable and understood, take it as a sign that they could be a potential partner. If this person makes you feel unworthy or unhappy, it’s time to minimize their presence in your life as much as possible.

2

You stumble across the same numbers repeatedly.

The universe can communicate with us through repeating numbers or sequences. Do you constantly see the same numbers on signs, doors, or clocks? These numerical patterns can be referred to as angel numbers – number sequences of usually 3-4 numbers that contain repetition. They appear in the most ordinary places, but metaphysical practitioners believe they are a direct message from the spiritual universe that offer insight and direction. ^{[1]

- Whether you interpret them as a sign from the universe or just a mere coincidence, angel numbers are a great tool to validate your intuition and/or manifest your aspirations.
- The sequence ‘ 555 ’ symbolizes a new change on the horizon, which could indicate a soulmate crossing your path soon. ^{[2]

The universe can convey powerful messages through dreams. Whether or not you believe in dream interpretation , studies have shown that most people believe dreams contain ‘hidden truths’ that influence our daily activities. ^{[3]

You keep bumping into them in public.

If you constantly run into them, it could be a sign you should be with them. When the universe wants two people to meet, it typically creates unavoidable opportunities. ^{[6]

Research source} It could be as simple as bumping into someone every time you’re at the gym or seeing them at the most unexpected places.
- It could just be a coincidence if you bump into someone 1-2 times. Frequent run-ins, however, are not as common as you think. Consider each time and place you’ve seen them.
- If they don’t show up where or when you expect them to, take it as a sign that they aren’t supposed to be in your life.

5

You’re seeing love everywhere you go.

If everyone is finding love around you, the universe might be preparing you for it too. You start to notice love surrounds you everywhere you go – you hear the same love songs over and over, see all of your friends getting engaged, or notice more PDA than usual during your grocery run. This could be a reflection of your desires, but it could also be a signal from the universe that you’re next in line.
- Don’t be angry or annoyed if you haven’t found the right partner yet, embrace the energy of love around you and accept that everything happens at the right time!

6

You’ve accepted the single life.

Download Article

When you don’t feel pressured to be in a relationship, you have the time and energy to understand who you are and what you’re looking for. This renewed sense of direction allows you to set aside bad experiences and forgive those who hurt you in the past. Once you’re happy and at peace with life, the universe will respond to this positive energy and send love your way. ^{[7]

You’re willing to take risks.

When you feel comfortable around someone, it’s natural to desire new experiences or reveal more of your personality. Pay attention to how you feel when you’re around someone because it could be a sign from the universe that you’re a good match. A higher level of confidence around someone equates to greater trust and contentment in relationships. ^{[10]

You feel like you’ve met them before.

Download Article

You meet someone for the first time, but you get a strange sense that you’ve met them before or in a past life. This could be a powerful sign from the universe that you’re meant to be with them since you have already established a deep level of comfort. It’s rare to instantly connect with someone, so pay attention to this feeling of familiarity. Even if it doesn’t manifest into a romantic relationship, it could be the start of a beautiful friendship.

11

You can’t stop thinking about them.

Download Article

Small details remind you of them. Do you think of someone when a certain song pops up? How about when you watch a film or encounter a scent? These signs can be a subtle way for the universe to remind you of this person throughout the day, and it can get harder to ignore as time passes. If you can’t go one day without thinking of this special someone, take the time to evaluate how you feel towards them.
- Try writing your feelings down on paper. This can help you recognize your emotions and identify the next steps in your relationship.
- Here are some prompts to answer: ‘‘Do I feel seen/understood by this person?”, “How would I feel if they weren’t in my life?”, “Do I like who I am when I’m with them?”
- Reader Poll: We asked 1152 wikiHow readers, and 69% agreed the surest sign of developing deeper feelings for someone is constantly thinking about them and fantasizing about being together . [Take Poll]
- So if you're constantly thinking about someone, it may just mean that some strong romantic urges are coming your way!

Expert Answer

The first step to listening to your intuition is to get out of your head and into your heart. You should be grounded to the earth. I recommend grounding every day because your intuition is picking up information all day long.

Work on yourself. How can you expect to love someone else if you don’t even love yourself? Self-love is a constant process, but it’s also a sign that you’re on the right path. Try doing things alone – going to the movies, eating at a restaurant, attending a show – to increase your confidence and experience everyday activities in a new light.

Frequent places that fit your lifestyle. If you’re interested in health and wellness, you’re unlikely to find your partner at the club. Be mindful of where you meet someone if you're looking to enter a relationship. You’re more likely to find a compatible partner in a common place of interest.

Don’t lower your standards to find a partner. You may think it’s easier to find someone if you don’t have high expectations, but it’s actually the opposite. Create a list of red and green flags to help you determine what you’re looking for in a partner, and reflect on previous relationships to see why they didn’t work out.
