    Could there be someone else out that that I would be equally happy with? Probably, but I'm glad I don't have to look any longer.

    THIS!

    There's nothing but me at the end of my rainbow, so I have to be happy alone.

    Real, but i didn't realize the concept was limited to just one person.

    I don't necessarily think it is but if something happens to mine I'm not going looking for another one. B!tches be crazy and I'm too old to go through all that *kitten* again.

    Seriously. I'm really happy that my wife and I got together before Facebook and interwebz and cell phones and texting and all this craziness. It was a lot simpler.

    Totally agree! My husband and I were just talking about this. We both said that if one of us dies that we would want the other one to be happy, but then we both said that we can't imagine being with anyone else. I've been with him since I was 19, almost 20 years now.

    no matter who you are with or married to its is an almost 100% certainty that there is a better mate out there for you.

    and before you say you know you found the perfect mate just think about it statistically. do you really think out of the small sample of people you have dated you found the 1 person on the planet who is the best fit for you?

    I do believe in soul mates. I dont believe it always happens in a Fairy Tale ending though.

    Only one person that you are destined to be with in all of time, in the whole universe?

    No, I don't think so!

    You become soul mates after you meet and grow close. There is not one person you are destined to be with.

    It was definitely destiny for my husband and me. If we had met at another time and place, we probably would not have gotten together. It was the right time for both of us.

    I thought I was married to my soul mate - 'till I found him in bed with another woman...

    Now, I'm not so sure about 'soul mates' anymore.

    Me too. My wife and I were actually in the same graduating class in high school. She was sitting right behind me at graduation. We never knew each other. We would probably not have liked each other if we had met then. We met on a blind date 5 years later. We were married one year to the minute after that. That was 16 1/2 years ago.

    That's awesome! My husband is almost 16 years older than me, and we met when I was 19. We were introduced by my ex-boyfriend, of all people, because when my ex met my husband, he was like, you are *just* like my ex-gf. haha

    If we had met much earlier, I would have been jail-bait. :tongue:

    I believe in it. Yes, the notion is cheesy. But if you are fortunate enough to find yours, all of the sudden the concept doesn't seem that foreign

    I second this.

    not sure about soul mates but I found someone who is my perfect match and we are different but compliment eachother well in the most important areas. We are both dedicated to one another and are completely in love and faithful. I guess that is as close to perfection as it gets. We made 3 gorgeous kids together too and have the same morals and values. I don't label it, I just feel really lucky :). We also have the same initials, the same amount of letters in our first and last names, and one letter difference in our first names. Funny coincidence.

    I think there is most definitely a peanut butter to everyone's jelly.

    However, I think that a lot of people try to force that with someone who isn't their jelly because everyone WANTS that so much. Lots of unhappy couples out there.

    I think not. There are lots of people you could be compatible enough with to spend a lifetime in their company.


    I read somewhere once that people who DO believe in soul mates are more likely to get divorced because they feel they made a mistake in choosing a partner that wasn't their soul mate afterall. Or they found someone else they believed WAS their soul mate.

    Imo, the concept is ridiculous that there is one perfect person for u...or I'm just a negative bleep.

    What r your opinions?

    in a world of 6+ billion people, it's fairly pessimistic to assume that there is only 1 soul mate for you on the whole planet. if that were the case, the odds of anyone ever meeting, much less dating and falling in love, with their soul mate would be astronomically small.

    however, on the odd chance that this theory is correct, i have insider information that tells me that Stephanie Seymour is my soul mate.

    Stephanie, if you're reading this, call me. ok? :flowerforyou:

    Hi, my real name is Stephanie Seymour. :wink:

    Kinda how the Lord God came down and knocked up a married chick and then sent an angel to tell her husband how it was gonna be?
