Do you believe everyone has a soulmate?

[Charlie]

I've been having a lengthy discussion with a friend about soulmates. The existance and what it really means. What do you think? Is there such a thing?

 

[Sherry]

YES! :great::love:

 

[Deo Maskey]

I don't think everyone has a soulmate. You just go with closest guess of your soulmate. Sometimes it works and sometimes it turns in to hell.

No
but if you try hard you can still find a good 2 dollar cigar.

I do believe there is, yes.

However, is that person living during the same time period as you?

Out of all the places in the world, what are the odds to be in the same city together?

Will you ever meet?

 

[Mackenziee Rose.]

IMO,yes and no.

Is there one and only person destined to be your single perfect match? No.

But I do believe that a perfect confluence of events can lead to two people who are well-matched falling madly in love. If two people love each other enough to make the relationship work, it will feel both natural and "perfect".

Absolutely . I'm not going to be the one to crush the illusions of the romantics :angel:.

No. I believe that love, like most other things in life, is a matter of choices. And the choices we make in terms of romantic partner usually have a lot to do with things that have nothing to do with love per se.

I also think that a lot of people would be much happier if they let go of the myth of The One. It's an awful lot of pressure to believe in The One (what if you never find The One? what if you think you found The One but you were wrong? what if you found The One, but couldn't make it work? etc.), and to be on the receiving end of someone who believe in The One (the expectations of being The One are a lot for one person to bear).

Personally, I'd much rather trust that my partner chose to be with me, and is making that choice again and again every day, rather than believe that they are with me simply because of their belief in a fairy tale.

Um .... What Gen said

 

[Tressa Marie]

Dude, I think it's time you start having original thoughts on your own. You can't carry on going through life saying WWGD/S? (What Would Gen Do/Say?).

 

[Wyatt]

What Gen said. :great:

 

[Panic25]

Genevieve, I bet I'm not the only guy here that could choose to be with you, and make that choice again and again every day. Suspect I would have to NOT be a man to NOT make that choice.

 

[LilMissRainbow]

Um, what Art said after what Gen said.

 

[bjjnoobie]

Well I was futzing around online one day, and came across an interesting alternative view on the subject. Now I didn't read all of it, just enough to get the jist of it.

We don't have a soul mate. We actually have multiple soul mates, and not solely in the manner that the term is normally used. Close friends and family would construe as soul mates. Basically take a group of souls, and 'you' are one of them. As the souls travel from one life to the next their paths keep crossing, and influencing each other. So the same soul could be your lover in one life, brother in the next, and father in the following.

Now another thing the same article put forward was True Flames. They contend that a soul is "huge", and the aspect we see an an individual is actually just the tip of the iceberg. But we're not the only tip that said soul has in play. It's just extremely rare for two aspects of the same soul to meet. But they are referred to as True Flames....Or is it Twin Flame? I don't recall what kind of relationship is to be expected out of those.


I'm a bit of a romantic fool, myself, so the idea or a soul mate is very enticing.

Them the realistic side of me steps up and says "this isn't a fairy tale!" This side of me agrees with Genevieve, that we are much more responsible for the direction of our lives and those in it.

Then the defective side steps up and pitches in and adds "who in their right mind would choose you?" or "once they know what you're really like...."

 

[joshieboya]

Gen, now it all makes sense.

 

[rhodecol]

Nope. I'd need a soul to have a soul mate.
