Do you believe in soul mates. I mean SERIOUSLY believe that out there in this vast world that there is someone that is meant for you. and regardless of what thier or your past history maybe they don't care.

The only thing that matters is this other person.

I once had an ex g/f tell me "I believe that there are multiple people that would be perfect for you, in case you screw one up you learn from it and know better next time"

Do you feel that you have meet your soul mate? did you screw up? or do have that person?

 
what an excellent question! 😉
i'm curious to see how others will respond to this particular thread, and I hope it stays at the top.

My answer: yes

I do believe in soul mates. I do believe that somewhere in this world there is someone that is perfect for me. I believe this person fits the exact qualities which I desire, since there are so many people out there in the world. In fact, maybe the possibility of having more than 1 can be true as well. The sad thing about this is the search. But this is where destiny and fate come in. All this of course questions the religious belief of predestination, but for now, lets stick to the subject.

I think that once you have found the "person" you'll know it in a heartbeat. I have only met distractors in my search, which there is nothing wrong with. But its what its says, distracts me, misplaces me and my own beliefs and thoughts.

All in all, i already know who my soul mate is, and that person is jlove 🙂

This has been asked already some time ago.

Anyway, I don't believe in soul mates. It's your subconscious which selects a suitable mate to produce offspring with. It's all hardwired. There are many mates which are suitable for an individual, not just one.

The reason why so many people believe that they've found the 'true one', is because of substances are released in their bloodflow which makes them feel 'good' in the presence of that person. These substances are comparable to drugs, since those too are highly addicting. Everyone who is in love is thus actually a drugs-user 😉
 
DannyLove: I did the same post a few weeks ago, if you are interested in searching to see what people had to say.

I don't really...I think there might be one "ideal" person for you...but that a lot of different people could make you happy with a little work.

true but shouldn't just toss what isn't &quot;meant to be&quot; I mean it's a bit waste of time don't you? you are looking for that ONE signifcant other that you can just total absorb into like water N jello...

I never used to, I thought it was a bunch of romantic BS created by people I couldn't relate to or understand.
Now when I look at my hubby I know that there is noone on this earth that is better for me.
I am sure that there are other people that I could have relationships with and probably enjoy spending time with but there sure as sh*t isnt another one like him.
I didn't have this feeling with my first husband and no ammount of working at the relationship would have created that 'this is the perfect person for me' feeling.
 
okay..........this is pissing me off a bit. Can we have a SERIOUS thread for once. I'm tired of reading one liners and just non-reasonable posts. please, if you're going to say something, let it be insightful and not just your 1 thought which firsts pops in your head when you read the title. :|

yes i do. unfortunately, since i believe they can be anyone anywhere, i dont think i will ever meet the person. it kinda of sucks to think that you and your soulmate might die never even meeting one another. my parents believe differently. they believe that true love and souls meet AFTER marriage. Before that, they think everything is merely based on superficialities, whether that be of the physical, emotional, or spiritual kind.
 
I don't know how I knew. There's just something inside me that tells me that without this woman in my life, I'd be very unhappy. I can't explain it...


Funny thing is she is the ONLY woman I have EVER dated and we happened to both go to the same HS.

amish 🙂

You're literally addicted to her. Don't worry, it can be cured.

so it just happened one day and just BAM you just knew?
 


<< Do you believe in soul mates! >>



I would like to say &quot;yes&quot; but I believe that the only fair answer is &quot;no.&quot;

Dont get me wrong - my girlfriend is amazing. I love her far more than anyone in the world, and I have no doubt that I can spend the rest of my life with her happily. But I dont believe that this is because we were made for each other. The fact is that we were far from a perfect match when we met... it has taken loads of work to develop a mature, and loving relationship. But in my opinion, that's exactly what its all about: love is not finding your perfect match and living happily ever after. Love is finding someone that you are willing to grow and mature with. Somebody whose shortcomings you can accept, and who will accept you with your faults but help you overcome them.

Well, it wasn't really a BAM as it was a realization that being with this woman fulfilled something inside of me that I really missed when I was away from her. This could probably be a standard symptom of &quot;falling in love&quot; with someone. All I know is that if I try to imagine my life without her, it makes my stomach knot up (even after 9 years of marriage).

amish

Well no relationship is perfect even if you have a found a soul mate. but isn't that part of finding that other person someone who will take you for who you are. and help you will your faults.

Sorry Sir. Ok, I do not for one minute believe in Soul Mates. I've seen more people break up that have said they were Soul Mates than people who are just together. Fvck the Soul Mate thing, it's a bunch of Pseudo-Spiritual-Bullshit.

Was that better??
