There's a lot of speculation about what a soulmate even is...  There is no scientific evidence to support the existence of soulmates, yet the idea of a soulmate as a romantic/spiritual concept. It's understandable to (want or) feel a sense of serendipity with someone, but it's important to approach any relationship with realistic expectations and a healthy dose of skepticism. Remember that ALL relationships need work.  Whether you feel you've got a connection with someone or not, it's important to continue focusing on building a strong foundation day by day. And if they don't hold up their end of things, it's ok to walk away. Nothing is keeping you there. It's healthier to just focus on building a strong and authentic connection based on mutual respect, understanding, and shared values. Actively listen to one another's needs and concerns.  Pay close attention to each other's actions and how you communicate and reconnect daily. Demonstrate respect for one another's lives, boundaries, values, etc.

I believe God might find two people very compatible for each other and then push the universe through circumstances to draw them together to each other. I feel like God sabotaged every connection I ever tried to make with every single man I knew before I started dating my boyfriend because God knew my boyfriend was the right choice for me.

The example I would give is if God were a job agency and you are a blacksmith and God knows there is a blacksmith opening at a certain job site near your house, God might send people to communicate the job opening to you. And if you are a shop owner, God might use His powers to set you up with shop supplies by sending ads to your door etc...

In the same way, if you are a certain type of person, God might know somebody who matches the type of personality you possess.

All that it really means is that you have high levels of long-term compatibility, because you have similar morals, values, and life goals. You will never be a perfect match and will always have at least a few areas of contention, but once in a while you might really find a close match, and that's mostly luck.

What isn't luck is being able to recognize that person and valuing them. They probably aren't going to be a top choice based on surface level concerns - they probably won't be the best looking person you've met, or the most successful or highest status. It doesn't mean they're going to be at the bottom of the scale either - they will probably be closer to average, JUST LIKE YOU ARE.

So, meeting such a person is largely just random chance, but recognizing their potential value to each other requires some attention and effort and intent.

It’s someone with whom you share a profound bond, understanding, and compatibility on many levels emotionally, intellectually, and sometimes spiritually. And I believe in it

Ah, the magical world of soulmates! ✨ As a relationship coach, I've seen many people swear by the soulmate concept, believing in an ultimate connection with someone who just "gets" them. Others view it as a romanticized idea, possibly akin to unicorns—charming but elusive. Personally, I think it's about finding compatibility and understanding in a way that feels special and unique. Whether it’s about chemistry, timing, or fate, it's definitely a captivating thought! ❤️

I don't believe that myself. We all have choices and must-haves. Say someone meets all your must-haves, so to you they may be  your  soul mate. But there is a catch, they may not think you cross all their "tees" nor do you meet  their  expectations. They do not consider you  their  soul mate. And if you did happen to have one, how would you find that  one out of 7 Billion?  There are just too many variables for me to believe that. I mean, if you really found your soul mate, you would never cheat on them or divorce them. You would be with them until the end. 💞👩🏼‍🦳👨🏼‍🦳🙌🏼

Yes, I do. He died in 2018. We were both born in November, and we would often say the same things at the same time along with finishing each other's sentences. Emotionally he understood me like nobody else. Before learning, he was the father of two children, a boy and a girl. One day, the subject of children came up, and I was telling him what name I liked and that if I had a daughter, I would give her that name when he told me that it was the name he had given his daughter. Life with him felt as if I were on steady ground, as if I were at one within myself. I miss him terribly.

molonski2 · Answer

Its a pretty obvious delightful myth , they simply do not exist , there are many different scenarios with relationships and there is always an element of chance , but there is no such thing as some mystical Soulmates.

People evolve , life evolves at its differing stages. Nice idea , but not real in the slightest , fantasy.

Xoirwinkan · Answer

I think it's definitely possible, but it can lead to dangerous mindsets for lifelong marriage. If you use soulmates as an excuse to not have to work hard for your relationship it's a bad thing. You can be soulmates but still have to put the effort in to make it run well. I think in particular this is a potential issue with female mindsets about romance, that a prince charming is going to come along and be perfect for ever. Well sorry to burst your bubble but no one is perfect and marriage is a two way street, where both sides need to have the iron will to make it work and never give up.

TheSpaceGnome · Answer

So soulmate has 2 meanings.
The first involves souls (which dont exist), and their predestined fates (which is also bs).
The second is just a label declaring that this person is perfect for you and you love eachother, and thats an actual thing that happens.

Anonymous · Answer

Not really, there are people you will naturally get along with very well at least for a while, and there are people you will be enumerated with.

But this is more a reflection of both of your personal dispositions. Dispositional matches which are no more unique than they are permanent.

True love is about loyalty and commitment to a cause of a person. Its hard work not so much a feeling. The feeling may come later when you realize the other is soo committed.

Staximus · Answer

I don't know if they exist or not, I definitely have not found mine. Supposedly a soulmate is somebody you were in love with in a past life or something like that. Like when you first meet them, it feels like you've known them forever. They are the person that was missing from your life, like on a spiritual level or more than just a physical or emotional level. Like you've lived and died a hundred lives, but you always go back to that same person again and again and again.

HungTexan · Answer

I do think there are soulmates. At least in the practical sense. My wife is definitely my soulmate in many ways.

foxsquirrell · Answer

I don't know for sure? Maybe they do, and it can seem like that for a long time even. But if you get betrayed by your "soul mate" or blocked, ghosted, it will be one of the worst things imaginable. It will break your soul and spirit. It will feel like you are a living corpse. Very very scary indeed.

Alwayreckles93 · Answer

Is that even a thing now a days? Guys put their mommy first before their wife's.

Miristheiss · Answer

Nope.

Only people that are good fits (compatibility wise) and ok and bad fits.

All of the feelings and butterflies and stuff can be fun but that isn't wise if you base your decisions just off of those.

Anonymous · Answer

I've never been with anyone other than my husband so I don't know what it's like with other men. But it's something beyond words. You care about the other more than anything, your loyal, trusting and there's a deep connection that can't be broken

Hellraiser1984 · Answer

Myth. Love is nothing but a chemical reaction to stimuli. When you see someone who is attractive to you your body starts these reactions. Then you stop having them eventually. That and it all comes down to what you look like, how much money you have and what possessions you own. If you're not good looking and rich forget it.

WhatTheHelvetica · Answer

Soulmates aren’t “found”, they’re made. It takes two people who are willing to put in the work and communicate with each other, learn from each other and forgive each other in order to make love work. I don’t think there’s one single person who’s meant for you, but that there are several people, who you could be happy with, if you’re both willing to put in the work.

Ifdyourmom · Answer

It's the belief that they were meant to be with you No, there's no such thing as "meant to be". "destiny" You create your own "destiny"- Yugi moto
