Gut feeling or random sensation?

I met a man 3 years ago in a professional setting. Just for a few hours a day. I don't have his personal number. The day we met he helped me with something. Recently, I suddenly started thinking about him. I have a feeling it is because he is thinking about me too. Because I randomly thought about him for no reason-and it wasn't normal thoughts where you just think about someone you met. It was weird, strong powerful thoughts of him.
I tried sending an email (work email) to him, but as I was typing the email, my chin started hurting for a few seconds. I happen to be very intuitive. I don't know whether this is a gut feeling or a random coincidence.
How do I know?
Because I met him once, I am not sure if I want to date him or if I am even attracted to him.
I just want to find out if he was really thinking of me-is that why I suddenly got consumed by his thoughts after 3 years?

Are you ok OP? This all seems wonderfully bizarre - your chin started hurting? You are intuitive? Maybe use your powers for the good of society as opposed to idly wondering about some entirely normal meeting with someone three years ago

Who would have thought that the ills of the world could be saved by the messages transmitted via your chin Wink

I don't know what to say to you, smileagainforme, but didn't want to read and run.

The mind can play very odd tricks and it isn't unusual to become infatuated with someone you hardly know.

Sending him an email is harmless in itself. However, don't expect too much in return, a lot can change in three years.

I hope you have some good friends with whom you can socialise.

Love to you Flowers.

I once worked with a guy that was rubbing his head.
I asked if he was ok
His response
"My third eye is hurting"
(True story)

I think you could be friends

"My chin started hurting" 😂

Mills and Boon stuff right there!

BobbinstickThundercats · 12/12/2018 03:01

I probably wouldn't mention the chin thing in your email OP.... in fact, for a truly serendipitous moment you should wait to see if he emails you first, no?

Alfie190 · 12/12/2018 03:24

Weird.

Notacluethisxmas · 12/12/2018 05:17

You sound like my ex MIL. Nice enough lady. She used to do things and not do thing based on random sensations and call it intuition.

She also used to complain about how her life turned out.

What does a sore chin usually indicate?
(Genuine question)

Musti · 12/12/2018 09:35

Random sensation.

Mummylife2018 · 12/12/2018 16:17

Is there a spiritual topic this could be moved to?!

Renarde1975 · 12/12/2018 17:09

Pain in chin could be a physical sensation, perhaps because OP has clenched facial muscles in response to the thoughts in her head?

For someone to pop into someone's mind though isn't unusual. What is unusual is you talking about the degree of attraction. When I feel that I know that what on the face of it seems quite romantic, it usually spells trouble.

Be wary there.

I picked up the universe was saying it wouldn't go anywhere and you should take it on the chin.

Hi OP.

This isn’t a goady question... but do you any mental health problems? I only ask because I have a diagnosis of bipolar, and although I’m now very stable on medication, when I wasn’t, I would have random thoughts and urges pop into my head if I was on the verge of becoming manic.

I hope I haven’t offended you, it was the way your post is written reminded me of that type of thinking.

MackaPackaTummy · 12/12/2018 17:40

*just the way

Youmatter · 13/12/2018 18:29

That’s very.. spiritual!

I’m not sure about the chin though. Think that’s in your head.

I’d absolutely love to think that he was thinking of you and you started thinking of him and you have this mad beautiful connection.

Probably don’t.

Please prove me wrong though. SEND THAT EMAIL

Random

Heartofglass21 · 13/12/2018 18:47

Have you seen this man in the intervening years? Has someone mentioned him at work, to trigger this? Have you had a vivid dream featuring him recently? Certainly send an email - keep it professional, don't mention anything about being intuitive - but don't be surprised if he doesn't remember who you are.
