I dated and dated and thought the same, but just when I gave up, he came into my life and swept me off my feet and is still sweeping me off my feet and i'm 43. He is 44 and we both feel like teenagers sometimes. Don't give up, I promise you that specail person will come along and probably when you least expect it.

38 here and thought I found her twice, but I was always with someone else and remained loyal to who I was with.

I've been contemplating seeing what both of them are up to today..... I know really bad idea.

Im 38 and still single and havent found the man im looking for just yet in my life but. If im still alive and on the earth then why give up hope if you want to find someone or fall in love or get that soul mate your talking about dont give up hope and remember we have to go through alot of jerks,creeps,nuts whatever to get to the right person and also know this the soul mate your looking for might not match the picture you have in your mind they might just be short,taller,a diffrent race (now that's a big one noone ever thinks that their soul mate might be of another race) fat, thin. whatever so keep an open mind and dont go for looks but listen to what your mind and heart tells you to do and keep hope alive and good luck!.

I turn 38 in a few days would like to think i have a good 30 years left to find my soulmate.

And I agree with Huc fin there, the 30's are way better than the 20's. Actually looking forward to the 40's.

Oh no, 38 is not too late! I believe that everything in our lives happens for a reason. All of the events in your life so far are just preparing you to be ready for her when the time is right. Don't ever give up that hope or dream. Trust me, it can and will happen for you, probably when you least expect it.

I wish for you much love and happiness!

Same thoughts here... Besides that all the women I like are either taken or are not interested in me... So maybe i'll have some luck when i'm in a retirement home with all widows.. LOL So 30 something more years (if I make that) and voila it might eventually happen... ROFL...

Try being close to your 45th, married more than once before (but for short time) and not even dating--in long time. BUT, I still think, or HOPE it IS possible to meet a mate.

I leave you with that HOPE....if there isn't hope what can we dream about??? What are movies based on....dreams! I have seen good marriages, met both in early life and later, so we must have a chance.

Don't give up!

You're right. Pack it up and move to a monastery. While you're at it, leave all your worldly possessions to me. You won't be needing them where you're going.

Here's a hint for you: there are no soulmates. It's media hype made up for movies. If I knew you better, I'd probably say, "you're on a pity pot. Now get over yourself." But that's only if I knew you better.

OMG ... it's all over ... myself i'm 37 ... and will be 38 at the end of the year ... there's no hope. Do you know how silly that sounds? I believe it's not over til it's truly over. There's always a few of out there that either started late (like myself) or that won't settle for being uphappy with someone that just is more misery then happiness (also like myself). I believe there is someone out there for me and for you as well .... just don't give up. You what they say .... faith can move mountains and we can do anything we put our minds to.

On a side note you need to have confidence in yourself or you'll never get anywheres in life, men and women alike like confidence. If you go into a self-pity thingy then all that's going to happen is nothing.

I was talking to someone that works in the same building as me, a while back, who told me that he didn't find the girl of his dreams until he was 38 and he married her later and they have a family now. So you know what that means .... it's not over unless you give up ..... don't give up man!

38 too old?

I'd have to say yes, sorry. I mean if you haven't hooked up by 35 then chances are slim to none afterwards... That's not to say its the end of the world. There is always the chance you will find someone to spend many years of your life with...

I would think if you was one of those lucky few that can ripen to that age without being caught count your blessings... There are millions out there that wish they had a life where they can do as they please, whenever they please....

Looking for a soulmate... well let me tell ya.. I got some land that would make a great investment.. a little swampy but they say the real estate in Alberta really gonna take off.... not really I dont believe in one soul mate.... I think you can meet and fall in love with anyone anytime.. you have to be willing and you need to be attracted to that person and you need a little good karma.. but say if you are interested in that land i can give you a good price....

I can certainly understand the feeling. Many times I have felt that way too, but as long as you are breathing there is always hope. Don't give up. As another poster replied, "You're not dead yet."

Got a couple more years to go, 36 now ... always thought I would be married off by 35, didn't happen (came close couple of times)..... probably the same for many of us 30s and still single. Gotta have faith though, be positive and enjoy the good times, never know what or who is coming around the corner! Look at this place, stacked with 30/40 y/o singletons, some of us got to get lucky, right? lol

Definately not too late - I know alot of woman that even say their life began at 45. The first time around didn't work for them and now they are content and happy and have found someone to spend their lives with.

Yea, right? Those who have unrealistic expectations can expect to be left behind.

boo...hoo... what a line. Ladies don't bite- he's just looking for you to feel sorry for him.
Welcome to the 21st century...people marry later, have children later and live longer, too.
I think it may be too late if you think a free website is the only way to find a "soul mate"
, but don't worry at least 20 posts will stroke your ego

He11 yes it's too late.
Hey if someone will believe that then maybe us who are over 45 will have a better chance.


Seriously though It is only too late when you give up.

I am your age and I had the great fortune of meeting mine. We only had 2 years together before he died. It has made it difficult for me, because now I compare everyone to him. Be thankfull she hasnt been in and out of your life yet. You still have hope. Be patient and you will see everything is ment to be. I was lucky to have" loved and lost" they say" better than to have never loved. "I dont know if I agree. Hang in there.
