Posted: 7/28/2009 11:48:03 AM | I don't subscribe to the "soulmate" theory in dating...
I do not believe there is just one other person in this whole wide world that is "just meant to be with me." I believe that there are quite a number of wonderful people out there, and when you pick one that is happy with you, who also makes you happy, and you build something together, then you have something...
A soulmate is something that you become over time. It's not an instant thing... It's something that is earned by being there for each other, by doing things together, and by making those shared special memories. Eventually, you reach a point where you just couldn't imagine not having that person in your life anymore...
Expecting someone to reach "soulmate" status the first time your eyes meet, or what have you...  that's not terribly realistic. Fairy tales were meant to entertain small children, not to be the pattern for our adult lives!
Real life stories can be so much more complex and interesting, anyway. | |

I like this and i think people desperately want and need such a feeling but fail to make the connection. A feeling i wish everyone had for themselves. | |

Posted: 7/28/2009 12:11:28 PM | | I believe in soulmates, but I don't think your soulmate has to be somebody you'd wanna be with romantically. I think your best friend can be your soulmate, but they might not be your true love. | |

Posted: 7/28/2009 12:16:46 PM | I met a woman who said she married her "soulmate" and I asker her how she knew. She said, that she didn't have to explain herself or convince him that she needed something. He just seem to know.
For instance, she just loves being in the garden and she'll be out there all day working, cleaning the beds, trimming, planting etc. When she comes in - he has dinner made for her without asking. He knows how she enjoys it, and understands she'll be tired and will need a good meal. He just gets her and she him. And the relationship works easily. It's not a struggle for either of them. And she realized from the first moment she met him at a party and so did he.
Wish I could get an invitation to a party and find a relationship like that!!
(This is her first marriage and his second - they were both married at around 40 - so perhaps it helps to be your own person and know who you are). | |

He may have seen things that he wanted to make better in a future relationship.
Either way, that is wonderful for them both! | |

Maybe I come on here because it exposes me to more people and I hope that somehow that person I want will see me and find some tangible connection to me. Souls have weight and depth to me and in that statement I feel that to have a soul mate you kinda first have to know you have a soul. Something a lot of people lack because they can't see it touch it or taste it. My advice you can't find what your not looking for so keep looking you may never find it but the journey seems worthwhile to me anyways.

Posted: 8/19/2009 3:17:59 AM | hi i truly believe in soulmates,
feel i met mine ,and yes was on here 5 months ago.
when he spoke to me it was like a light went on in my life.
we both told each other after 3 days how we felt ,
also when you think of it we are talking about souls,souls that have lived many many lives .
this is why we may go through life knowing meeting a few people ,who we feel are our soulmates as they were. only we have decided what path we will choose and what soulmate to walk on it .all this was decided before we were born.so we dont know who they are till they walk into our lives .
well thats what ive heard and truly believexx | |

Posted: 8/19/2009 3:31:33 AM | If we asked the Soul what it really needed, I'm convinced we would be surprised by the answer...I think people confuse Soul mate to what they believe their 'ideal' partner should be. I doubt the Soul would judge what clothes we wear, or how big our bank account is, or how good we are in bed....I think most people would be shocked at the choice of mate their souls would choose.

Posted: 8/19/2009 7:00:14 PM | I absolutely believe that romantic soulmates exist. I found mine. I knew the day I met him that he was It. He told me later that he felt the same way, that day. We had ten wonderful years before he died.
I don't know whether or not we have "only one"...I'd like to think that there's another one out there for me, but if the closest I can get is a kindred spirit, I'll take that. | |

Fact is, there are many people on this planet that would make a good match for an individual. Love is a wonderful but common emotion- one that we are capable of feeling for many different people throughout our lives. | |

Posted: 10/31/2009 12:57:07 AM | Soul mates come in many shapes and sizes.
Problem is we don't recognise them as such because we are hellbent on having to keep the soul mate. Sometimes we have them for a moment, sometimes we have them for a while, sometimes we have them for a lifetime.
It all depends on how we learn our lessons and progress through life. If you stay stuck to one soul mate, you will never meet another, that will help you attain a higher level of spirituality or awareness.
I believe in soul mates, I believe in twin souls, I believe in many things but, I also know that real love (the one that doesn't hurt or harm) doesn't hold onto someone or try to hold onto someone if they can't be together.
The greatest love is capable of letting go, knowing that if it is meant to be, they will return.
That is one of the hardest lessons I have ever had to learn. Letting go of love due to it not being reciprocal or able to be fulfilled. | |

I believe my childhood friend is my soulmate. She was a naturally kind, caring, and good person. As kids she would lend me anything especially her clothes and shoes even if she wants to wear it when I ask for them. We would hangout together at school, in the weekends, go swimming, go to church and Sunday school.
When we were in high school we would sneak out to go to the clubs on Saturday nights and each time my friend would cop a hiding from her father. The next day at church we would sit together and giggle about the night before. I admire her a lot for being brave and for her good nature. I went overseas for over 20 years and I never stop thinking of her.
My childhood friend was like an angel sent down from the heavens to prepare me for the horror to come. She did just that, be there for me, and I appreciate it more as years went by.
I would never forget her, a great spirit, and a friend to keep always.
A soulmate as a lover...am still looking
