"signs" about possible soulmate false?

[Rockchick26]

I've posted about this situation in the IM section but i have more specific questions now and i'd like Erin's opinion too so hopefully she will see this :-) I know now that you cant use the Law of Attraction to attract a specific person. I tried to use it to bring this guy into my life and it backfired on me horribly which led to a wake up call about the way the LoA works. So now i know you can't do that. What i would like to know is,if you get signs from the universe that this person is your soulmate,can those signs be wrong? Or am i just interpreting them the wrong way? Here's what was happening,that i was putting my total faith in being true; I barely knew who this guy was when i had a dream about him,and in the dream we were at a wedding,dancing and kissing. After the dream my feelings for him exploded and for the next year and a half (and still now) i have never felt something so strong for anyone. I am a firm believer in dreams too. So then i tried this "ask your dreams" process (where you write down a question,focus on it,and your dream that night will give you the answer. So i asked the dream to show me how i was going to bring this guy into my life. That night i had a dream that i was supposed to give him my phone number but i was too shy so i went into another room and he followed me in there and asked me for change for a dollar and i asked why he didnt get it from someone else and he said "because i wanted it from YOU!" and he smiled at me. The next night i asked for more details about this and that dream took place an outdoor concert (which will actually be happening this August) and i saw him there. Also a few times when i was meditating i asked to see something about my future. I had flashes of us sitting on a park bench and he was holding my face in his hands about to kiss me,and also of us in my bedroom about to have sex. I didnt imagine these images,they appeared out of the blue,and i SAW them,like i was really seeing my future. I've also gotten TONS of smaller signs like seeing his name in places,seeing other "coincidences" regarding him. Well anyway this was all before i met him about 2 weeks ago,and when i met him,he pretty much seemed like he was trying to avoid my group and seemed irritated that we wanted to talk to him and then within a few seconds he turned around and walked away. Now that i know i cant attract HIM,why was i having these dreams/visions/signs??? If they are meaningless,then how can i trust anything anymore?
