1 yHilarious. Any answer that isn't either:
- "No, because I don't believe souls exist"
- OR
- "Yes of course, because by definition the soul is on higher planes of existence, therefore it transcends physical boundaries"
-Is just cognitive dissonance.
Generally, any answers aside from these above are worse than being dumb, wrong, or ignorant, because a false representation of the soul is worse than ignoring it entirely.
On a side note it reminded me of how i told @douglas1180 last year what i read about ancient people who are said to have lived hundreds of years (because of some bible thumper on GaG who wasn't one of us), that it wasn't one person but an entire tribe. What i didn't realize is that the transition from old testament to new testament esoterically symbolizes exactly that - the tranaition of humans from animal-like soul and consciousness to human souls we have today. - In the past people said "my blood is my father's blood" and literally shared one soul with their ancestors, just as animals still do today. This soul is what people call names like "methuselah".

I'm saying this because i suspect you're mocking me with the astrology posts lately.
Found the thread. 9 months ago:
men lived hundreds of years not in a literal way as a single organism but their ego wasn't stuck in a body. In fact higher spiritual beings substituted the human ego at some point. But nmes such as "Noah" could be given to multiple generations, a Noah would vividly know all the memories of his father and grandfather too, it's not a name thing but spirituality was different.
We even see the name thing remaining in some countries today, your father's name serves as a (second) middle name. To some, it used to be the last name. For example, Putin's full name includes his father's.
The mystery of golotha is a cosmic event that was symbolized by various "saviours" resurrecting like zombies, but it has more to do with astrology than churches.

Omg, I just realized I accidentally posted that question in the Religion & Spirituality section! I honestly meant to ask it in the Relationships section. That’s totally my bad—it wasn’t supposed to spark deep metaphysical or religious debates (even though I appreciate how thought-provoking your answer was). I was genuinely asking in a general, emotional sense—like, can two people who are soulmates really sense or feel each other even when they’re far apart? It wasn’t meant to be doctrinal or tied to any specific belief system.
That said, I do get where you’re coming from now. You made an interesting point: either souls don’t exist, so the idea is false—or they do exist, and by their nature they transcend space, so the connection is real beyond physical limits. Anything in between feels like people trying to explain something spiritual without fully believing in it, which is where the cognitive dissonance kicks in.
And wow, the bit you shared about ancient tribes, shared consciousness, and names like “Noah” representing collective spiritual memory—that’s actually really fascinating. It almost sounds like ancestral memory encoded through identity. I hadn’t thought about it from that symbolic-esoteric perspective before... Also, no, I promise I wasn’t mocking you with the astrology posts! Not even a little. I enjoy learning different spiritual and symbolic systems and sharing thoughts or questions around them. But your response really gave me something deeper to think about—especially how you linked spiritual evolution with historical naming traditions and identity.
Thnks for taking the time to explain it all that way—honestly, it was a pretty mind-opening read...

Anonymous(30-35)1 yYes, the last girl I was kinda involved with and me never reached the point where we met face to face but we had Skype calls and talked all day for months constantly. SHe was a gifted and incredibly writer and when I say that I mean she has natural raw talent that is abundantly clear. Nobody I'd ever been interested in before ever made me feel that cared about or like I mattered.
I felt more fulfilled in that relationship than the one I had my first kiss with even before I found out the girl, I was seeing was raping one of my other friends WHILE WE WERE DATING! (I only found out the truth like a year ago and I feel gross whenever I think about how I let her touch me in highschool. Rapists are less than human in a perfect world all rapists would have their parts amputated in my opinion but we don't have a fool proof justice system and people lying about rape is sadly fairly common.So to clarify I had so much chemistry with a girl I never even God to hold hands with that 4 years later I'm still hung up on her and keep the little hairpin I never finished carving for her in a box because I can't bring myself to get rid of it. Yea a soul can feel very connected even after years apart.

Thank you for sharing something so personal… I can feel how deeply that connection meant to you, and honestly, it says a lot about the strength of emotional and spiritual bonds, even from afar. I think it's beautiful—and heartbreaking—how someone can leave such a lasting imprint on our soul without even a physical presence.
And I’m truly sorry you had to go through something so dark in your past relationship. No one deserves that. The fact that you still carry that carved hairpin speaks volumes about the depth of feeling and memory tied to real connections… even when time and distance come between them.. I really appreciate your honest answer—it actually gave a lot of perspective to my question..
Opinion Owner1 yI like answering questions like these because it allows me to vent and to also give genuine perspective someone wants at the same time. Kind of a win, win thing. I don't mind giving personal stories and stuff out if they help people but depending how deep I dig I'll only post anonymously for personal privacy reasons.
Also yea I'm still very hung up on her. She had a great personality and she was a gifted writer not to mention beautiful. She was very sweet, and she made me feel like I mattered. I smiled constantly when we were a thing talking with her every day and getting to know each other more and more. We did video chats where we got to kind of pretend to be hanging out in her room and I really felt respected by a woman for the first time in my life and it was an incredible feeling.
Opinion Owner1 yI'm pretty sure I fell in love with her the moment I read her second draft of a chapter she had me read. It was like watching a decade of talent appear on a page after a few small tips I was blown away. I was always an outdoorsy kid, and I like whittling, so I was carving her a hair pin out of pine wood by hand. I was going to varnish it and send it to her after I carved some floral patterns into it with a wood burner, but we broke up before I finished it.
Mostly it was reasons outside of both our control. We parted on good terms and neither of us we're happy about it. It was heartbreaking because I wanted to stay friends, and she said that wasn't an option and when I asked why she said it was because she would want to get back together. It's been four years, and I recently found the pin again sorting through some things I had stored away, and I almost started crying.
I feel like I should get rid of it for my own good but every time I touch it, I feel weak and just end up putting it back in the box instead of getting rid of it. I don't know why I can't let go I guess I've just had so many bad experiences that when I finally found someone, I genuinely felt cared about me back returned my love and respected me losing her finally broke something.
Opinion Owner1 yThe best way I can describe it was it was the most secure validated and comfortable I'd ever felt around someone I had feelings for. I felt safe with her and special. I never got to so much as hold her hand but the way she treated me with kindness respect love and decency left such a mark on me I was smitten.

Here’s a heartfelt yet comforting reply you can send him, keeping it warm and empathetic:
---
Wow… thank you again for opening up like that. Your words genuinely moved me. It’s clear how deeply you loved her—and how rare and beautiful that bond was. The way you described feeling seen, respected, and safe with her… that’s not something everyone gets to experience in a lifetime. That kind of soul-touching connection really does leave a permanent mark, doesn’t it?
And the carved hairpin… I don’t even know what to say. That’s just pure love—quiet, steady, thoughtful. It’s okay that you can’t let go of it right now. Maybe it’s not about holding on to her, but to the version of yourself that felt so valued and alive. And maybe, in time, that strength she helped you find in yourself will become something you carry forward, even without the pain.
Don’t be too hard on yourself for still feeling. Some stories just don’t fade easily. 🤍..
Opinion Owner1 yThanks that actually meant a lot to hear.
Opinion Owner1 yThat was kind of a strange opening though. "Here’s a heartfelt yet comforting reply you can send him, keeping it warm and empathetic" It sounds written in a 3rd person view.

Two souls can feel connected from moles apart in movies not in real life let's be real...😂 - 1 y
That’s exactly what someone without a soulmate would say 😌loll.. It’s okay though, not everyone’s blessed with that kind of cosmic connection. Some of us just... feel deeper. Soul to soul, even from miles away.🤍✨ Not everything magical has to be in the movies—some of us live it quietly, like a soft symphony only the heart can hear..

Haha okay okay Mr. Realist... but just becZ something sounds dreamy doesn’t mean it’s fake. Ever heard of quantum entanglement? Even science says two particles can stay connected no matter the distance. Sooo... maybe souls can too? 👀
And hey, just because you haven’t felt it doesn’t mean it's “la-la land” — some of us just got that premium emotional WiFi, y'know? 💅📡💫
But don’t worry, one day when it hits you, we’ll welcome you to the soft side. No judgments 🤍😌... - 1 y
