Is intuition real? I am convinced that it is. I am also totally convinced that I (we, all of us) should pay attention to it. Because many times in the past i chose to ignore it and calamity always followed, eventually.
I don't think that intuition just in itself is enough. But when you get that feeling that something or someone is not just right, listen to it and follow up. Find out, ask questions and probe the situation. Believe me, a lot of hard feelings and hard times can be avoided if we would just listen to that inner voice. Maybe it is God talking to us, all I know is it is there and I have heard it. i am going to do my best to pay attention from here on out.
When you hear this voice and it is telling you something you don't want to hear or believe, what we do is shove it waaaay to the back of minds. I know I have made excuses for behavior or a situation that was not quite right. This is especially true in relationships. You want to believe in someone so you ignore the warning signs. Sometimes other people tell you out loud what you are thinking. That may help to put a name on. Still we ignore it, hoping it will just go away. It's silly and ridiculous.
Are women better at intuition then men? I don't know. I'm sure there have been studies, I'll have to check it out some time. It is possible that women are some what more intuitive because we tend to have a nurturing nature. I'm not going to argue that nurturing is born in us or taught, I just think that the two go hand in hand.
But everyone gets those feelings. Sometimes they are very small and quiet and sometimes they are screaming in your head.
I don't know why I focused in on this subject. It has been in my head a lot lately so I thought why not blog on intuition... Any thoughts?

Intuition is a strong thing that most people do not listen to! There have been many times in my life when I did something that did not feel was right, and then later I had regrets and wished I had listened to that little voice in the back of my mind!
That is really odd that you wrote about this because on Tuesday my mom called and told me to turn on Oprah because they were doing a show on following your instincts! This girl kept thinking someone was in her apartment so she set up a camera because no one believed her and in fact; there was a guy coming in her house putting on her clothes and doing very graphic things everyday!
I wanted to watch that Oprah. I had to be out. Hope they show it again.
