I have a few....

When I was in my early 20's, I was camping. I got a horrible restless feeling, and just knew my bf was up to no good. When I got back, a friend of mine said she saw him driving around with another girl- at the same time when I had my weird feeling.

Another time- I was separated from my ex husband, but we were trying to reconcile. One evening he said he was really upset and couldn't see me. I popped round anyways ( his dad was dying, so I thought I was being nice) and he didn't answer the door. I left, but I saw a car parked on the street that caught my attention. For some reason I noted the number plate down- like, I had a really strong compulsion to remember it. A few months later, I had finished with him due to him lying. His " new" partner owned the car I had noted.

What are your stories?

#SleepWarrior, did you see the quotes from the book, the gift of fear? The author makes the point that no animal would discard their instinct and say "its probably nothing". I think you are wise to listen to your instinct

After throwing exh out and having a welcome fling, I had a sort of vision that I would meet a man named George who worked at Tesco. Went to a wine bar soon after, met George who did indeed work at Tesco. Never had a night apart in over 6 years now. Married with dc!!

Every single man I've met where it didn't work out.

A few, one romantic, some not. I had a gut feeling my ex was messing around and he was.

A couple of months ago I was standing in a supermarket queue next to a man. The thought 'that man is going to die soon' entered my mind and 20 mins later he collapsed with his wife screaming and an ambulance called. I don't know what happened but i was shaken up for about a day.

Re what pp said,I've met a couple of men who I had a bad feeling about. I work with a couple of them so I just get on with it, but one actually committed a crime and turns out he had a dodgy past.
