This is just weird...?

Question

Today, at the mall, I was browsing with my family and randomly thought of this senior girl who graduated last year. and now lives across the country. I didn't even know her, but somehow she popped into my head. Right as this happened, I thought to myself, "Why am I even thinking of her? I don't even know her...". About 10 minutes later, she walks past me, almost trips over my bags, says sorry- and then recognizes me and we have a conversation. I didn't say anything to her about it, because it was just way too weird. But this happens very, very often! Why?

Answer 1

It happens to me too, with people, with songs and telephone calls, and I have even gone into someone's home and just gone to the cupboard and gotten out the coffee cups (they were home and I knew them, just to clarify that).  I also get a physical response (hair on the back of my neck stands up) if my mother is unhappy, even though she lives a 12 hour drive away.

I have a strong sense of intuition, or 'gut instinct' about things and tend to make my decisions based on that.  You probably do the same thing, I think it is the remnant of another sense we used to have when humans lived in more dangerous times and we needed more signals and methods of communication.

Answer 2

This happened to me so much ..I got SICK of saying" I was just thinking about you ". It will also happen with things like  what you read and songs you sing etc. etc. Just get used to it and don't go telling it around town. You'll just look nuts and the  people will think you think you're special or "chosen". Spiritual jealousy is awful and dangerous. Stuff happens...and I don't have a clue what we're supposed to do with it. But don't go crazy thinking every time you think about someone that you'll see them. You usually don't even realize you 've thought about them until AFTER you see them. I've heard of something called "serendipity"...but I'm not sure if it applies to this.

EDIT..I looked up serendipity..it's not the right name for what happened to you. I think serendipity is what they call a "happy accident".  You find something/someone by looking for something/someone else.

Answer 3

Coincidence

Answer 4

I get the same type of things.I usually know whos calling on the phone,i know when my favorite songs are playing on the radio,and i'm pretty good at knowing when a good movie or tv episode will play.But i don't know how to win the lottery.

Answer 5

So, two things are possible:

1) You have been blessed with the psychic power of clairvoyance; however, you can't control it effectively and it's randomly popping up here and there (I believe you also asked a similar question about some guy at a club).

2) You are a schizophrenic.

Guess which one most people will find most likely. #2. So get tested for schizophrenia, if you test negative then you might consider investigating option #1.

Answer 6

Sometimes weird is just different, and sometimes different is just weird, and sometimes weird things, Happen at the weirdest times! Trouble is, when They happen too often!    IT'S WEIRD!??!!   Isn't it?

Answer 7

There are two possible explanations.

1)  You had seen her out of the corner of your eye earlier but your brain hadn't fully registered it.  This happens a lot - say, when you notice something is out of place but don't dwell on it.

2)  It's just a coincidence.  How often do you think of random people, places, or things that never show up?  All the time - but if nothing else reminds you of it, you forget it.

Answer 8

you could be schizophrenic and psychic

Answer 9

perhaps you have a higher sensitivity of whjats going to happen.not out right premonitions but just sort of like a sixth sense

Answer 10

you sensed that you were going to meet her.. i think you are sensitive.
