Do you believe in soul mates?

Question

who of you have found your soul mate? It came up while watching the movie The Notebook.

No, man.

The first time I was in love, I could have had a perfect relationship with this guy. He liked me back and all, perfect one year age difference, he was a good person, everything. I thought I was going to marry him. I thought this was it.

But, later I decided that he wasn't my type.

I realized there is no one true love, because you can fall in love many times throughout your life. Which I do.

So no, I do not believe in romantic soulmates.

Platonic soulmates are another matter. You can, in fact, have the perfect best friend. And the best part is that you can have more than one.

100%. You can have a soulmate in a friend, romantic partner.  This article can shed some further light on 'soulmates'

Souls don't exist, so no.

People have x number of people on earth that they are compatible with enough to marry, for each person the number is typically very small in comparison to the rest of the population, sometimes extremely small, but it would be very unlikely to be just one other person, and if it were, the odds of them being in the same country would be very small as well.

I would stick with a perfect match monogamously, but I'm not going to pretend only one person on earth qualifies to take that seat.

Because I haven't found one I'm not sure I believe in it..

nightdrot · Answer

Honestly, my rational and logical answer is "no." There are degrees of compatibility, some closer than others, but something as elemental as is implied by the term "soul mate." Nope. Human nature is not made that way.

Yet, I wake up in the morning and next to me is this beautiful woman who loves me with a love that I did not earn. Who is more beautiful to me than words can express. Who cares for our children with a devotion and compassion that takes my breath away.

How can I say it? In my best moments she is there for me. None more supportive and more loving. I just want to hold her and protect her and care for her and nothing else matters to me.

Yet, when I went through a very bad time in my life, she was there for me. She held me and cared for me. When I cried, not only did she not mock me, she wiped away my tears and told me that she loved me. She made me feel safe and the warm feeling of being in her arms steadied me and made me feel loved when I did not think I could be loved.

When we have sex - eeek! Yes, I use that word when discussing a "soul mate" - it is raw and elemental, almost animal. It is our most basic instincts. I am the dominant male and she the submissive female. She is giving me her naked body for my use - and her naked body feels so good against mine - and I feel myself inside her and it makes me know that I am a man. Yet the funny part in all that it is like the whole universe shrinks down to just the two of us and nothing and no one else matters. We are giving ourselves to each other unconditionally and it is pure love, purely expressed.

Then there was the three times she was pregnant. Carrying, as hard as I am sure as it was, a piece of me, the product of my sperm, with total love and without complaint. She gave me three of the most beautiful little gifts that a woman can give to a man and I have never known such unconditional love.

Seeing her naked pregnant body there was nothing to me more beautiful. I always thought she was beautiful but then there was just something more. Then I saw her in labor and I never felt so helpless. She was in pain and suffering for me, and I could not help. Yet, when I looked at her she smiled and mouthed the words "I love you."

Funny part is, we don't want to be married, We just find all the noise and bombast around a wedding to be so off putting and so artificial and yet I cannot imagine - and this after a number of relationships of varying degrees in my earlier years - being with anyone else in my life. She has given herself to me and we share three beautiful little children and I have never known such happiness.

Also, when I learned that I was the father of a young man whose mom I had gotten pregnant in a one night stand years ago, my soul mate did not get angry. Rather, she was supportive and has treated my son with as much love as she has shown our children.

CONT.

Circlesgames · Answer

There is no such thing as soul mate, it is healthy to know now and kill all high hopes or expectations.

A soul mate is simply someone u love and matches with little or most of you, once u have found love, u will be able to work on your compatibility and become more soul mate like, soul mate also deals with building and growing with someone, from time to time u start working like a program, he knows u and she knows u... Everything is a process its only in movies u see that sudden blending and forever love no fights.

The love each other all of a sudden does happen but the all of a sudden your both perfect for each other doesn't happen over night tho. U need to talk, fight mix to get your soul mate.

LazerBean · Answer

I don't believe in soul mates, but I believe that everyone has someone (or two or three) who is the closest match possible for them.

Redstang88 · Answer

I wouldn’t say I believe in the soulmate thing, but I definitely do believe that we have a very, very limited few people we will come across in our lives that are just a whole other level of connection

JustAnj · Answer

Yes, I see things a lot people would freak about, I'm used to it.

My husband has experienced it first hand.

It's honestly strange, annoying, and awesome.

I do believe he is my soulmate.

I'm his Venus to his Mars.

Infinitely bonded.

TonyV · Answer

No not really, also doubt you'd find them wherever they are on the globe, I also would geuss most people have meet their soul mate, the person best for them, and have already rejected them for some shallow reason, hell some people are even in denial about what is really best for them.

Soooo yeah I doubt most people will find their one and only soul mate.

Nikki1989 · Answer

Yes I do. I feel very lucky because I think I have two of them.

bubblegunnn · Answer

Yes i believe it. ALSO notebook is very good romance movie

Shy_Steve · Answer

I definitely believe in Soulmates, But they are just so hard to find.

Aerolyn · Answer

I never have and I doubt that I ever will.

I don't think we humans are special enough to have a fateful significant other that's especially made for us and only us, it sounds like some fairy tale shit that's too good for reality.

Rose89 · Answer

I want too. But I feel like I’m cursed as I get heart broken by guys I feel like I get a good connection with. Maybe one day I will actually find “the one”

ALPHABLACK · Answer

I think you are unimaginably horribly miserably hilariously wrong about that very concept coz in the real world there are just temp connections and they are always based on mutual benefits

Rockstarrrrr · Answer

Yeah... I think there's even multiple people that can be your soulmate... But it's not guaranteed that you will meet them...

menina · Answer

No, I don't. People are not perfect and if soulmates were real there wouldn't be people who would get married and over and over.

Jennz6 · Answer

CountryWanderer · Answer

In the sense that there are people out there who would be an excellent match for living with together for the rest of your lives, yes

AviatorTom · Answer

Nope. I believe that there are several people that each of us can have a good, happy and productive life with, not a specific soulmate.

JDavid25 · Answer

No, I believe you find somebody you get along well with, have good chemistry & connection and are attracted to, and you make it work..

Brandi555 · Answer

Yes. But how do you know if you found him? And what if you think you found him but he’s not it? This is all very stressful

AimeeKyle · Answer

Yes. I do think they exist and sometimes come around when you least expect it….

user1516 · Answer

Soulmates come in all forms. Could be a pet, a family member, a friend, a teacher/professor, or a romantic partner. So, yes yes I do.

Dazed0N0Confused · Answer

No. There are over 7 BILLION people, to think only one person is made for you is absurd.

MakeUpModel91 · Answer

I definitely do now, sometimes we meet them at the perfect time. Sometimes at the wrong time.

Jamesshinobi · Answer

EaterPeter · Answer

Kind of. May be chemistry more than soul mates or passionate sex.

shark58 · Answer

No, but I believe in passionate 100% fitting relationships... ever heard about Abelard and Helouise? Search it out!

Xewleer · Answer

Yeah but it's made, not just "in the ether". I. e. people can fit like puzzle pieces, but you still gotta be cool with your significant other pooping.

Paul09 · Answer

Yes. But it's not just as one person. My close friends are like my soul mates too. Can't picture life without them. But I haven't found my girlfriend soulmate unfortunately.
