Do you believe that everyone has one special person waiting for them? That your perfect partner is out there, and that one-day you will find her/him? Each of us have one person we are meant to be with?

What do you think?

Have you already found him/her?

I think that there may very well be a special person for each of us, and that only a percentage of people ever find them, thats why people generally end up arguing and doing other things with their parteners.

I personally think I have found my soul mate, in the form of emmy.

I've found my soul-mate....unfortunately we are both married to other people so we can only be friends......and it's hard.....

Interesting question.

I thought I found him years ago and he was married to someone else.
Several years later I went and had an astrology chart done. I spent a bundle, but since I never had one done I felt it was not frivolous. I told my reiki master that I wanted a chart.... that I didn't have a specific question. Now I did not do this to test the validity of the chart or anything, I really didn't have a specific question, and I always like a general reading first.
Oh, I also never chit chat with my reiki master about my personal life. I was 28 at the time of the chart, and since I look young she thought I was 17, so she really initially did not know me as a person. Other than I like the metaphysical.

Some things she brought, that the chart said about me.

Grew up in a chaotic household.
People are physically violent towards me. I do not initiate physical fights, but the things I say (I'm pretty honest) push people towards hitting me.
That I like the arts
That I like people that look good. Really really good.
People that I'm interested in have to be a celeb, or very very talanted at something
That I am only compatible with a Leo, no other sign.
(When you get a chart done they take birhplace and time into consideration, so one Scorpio could be compatible with a Taurus another would not.)
That this Leo is from another country, would have to be a celeb
This Leo would have be in the art most likely a musician
This Lea would be old enough to be my father.
She also said I have the chart of a daredevil, you wouldn't be able to tell by looking at me. I swear. (I'm the weenie, that gets picked last for everything)
She said I should jump out of a plane. Take up sport with freefalling her example was jumping out of planes with skis on my feet.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well let me tell u, I made an appointment to go skydiving before I had this chart. The only person that knew this were the people that were going with me.
That guy I stated in the beginning in this post........
is a Leo, musician, made several cd's, has traveled/toured around the world, he is old enough to be my father, is from another country.

I have often wondered if some how if I ruined my one shot with my soulmate.
I'm not on speaking terms with this guy anymore, and he stopped talking to me after he became a widower.

I was also told that if you knew who your soulmate was, u'd never want to meet them. There the people that are here to teach u lessons, so your soulmate cause u the most grief. Also, your soulmate could be the same sex as u. I'm not refering to gay/lesbian relationships. For example, a straight man's soulmate could be another straight man.

Yes, I have found him........
Never in my life have I felt so safe, loved and wanted.
Having another human accept me, with all the baggage I bring to the table..... Being my 'canary' making sure the environment won't do me in (Multiple Chemical Sensitivities) and loving me...... for just ........ me........ Is a treasure I will never take for granted.

As a hopeless romantic I believe in soul mates and love at first sight . You know sometimes you just make a connection with someone . The first time you talk to them you feel comfortable relaxed and you really enjoy just sharing space with them . however I have a very short attention span and tend to fall in and out of love regularly fortunately for my husband I haven't got the energy for another man in my life . I allready have 3.


I have often wondered wether soul mates or the people we meet and have an instant liking for are people we have known in past lives ....

What if I were to tell you that my wife and my best friend were married in a past life.

Just thought I would throw that in while we were talking about past lives.

as I'm only 18,i've never thought of this before

Not gonna find anyone anymore ..

It's possible, and I've found him. I found him the first time 12 years ago when I was 15. Then a year and a half ago he found me again. We will be together until the end of all time. I am sure of this.

If I do have a soul mate out there, who's destined to be with me, I pity the poor woman.

I don't know if I have one or not, or whether I believe one exists at all. The closest to a soul mate I have is my friend Buster, he knows more about me than I do, sometimes dude even knows what I'm thinking. But as far as a girlfriend or anything romantic, I've rarely had a relationship last longer than a couple months, so I have my doubts.

I am gonna be totally unromantic which according to the horoscope people is not me..... I believe you can MAKE anyone your soul mate.....as in you make yourself think that this person is perfect, this person is everything you want and have looked for - and it may be but - in five years your definition may change and he is no longer your soul mate.....I believe there are many extreemly compatible people that we are given that we can choose from - but I don't believe one particular person is our soulmate - if i'm wrong then mine is my cat!

Nothing wrong with that Anirbas,

I heard that we are supposed to have several soulmates. We are not meant to be with just one person.

What Anirbas said is pretty much my point of view.

But the first thing that came to my mind was that bumper sticker "You'll find your prince one day, but I think mine took a wrong turn, got lost and is to stubborn to ask for directions"

Don't tell him I said that though, lol. j/k

Cya!

sarky i think you nailed it...


i believe i found my soulmate, 100% positive, i met her about 3 years ago, we started off as friends and matter of fact i wasnt even interested in her until her and one of her friends started having some problems and she would come to me to talk about it, we had maybe 2 allnighter type conversations and after that i knew i was hooked, i wanted to be her boyfriend so bad, but she didnt seem like the type that would want to be with someone like me(not to say theres something wrong with me, but her past boyfriends were all the badboy type, and allthough i can defenetly hold my own, im mostly quiet and dont start any trouble unless i have too) i dont know exactly how it happened but we just became an item, i never asked her out, she never asked me out, it just happned, we both fell pretty deeply in love with each other, but problems arouse in her family (her parents didnt like me) and she could no longer handle the stress of a relationship with me and deal with her parents, its been some time now since we broke up, and allthough i only talk to her once in a great while i am still in love with her, i sometimes wonder if she feels the same, but theres no way i can mention it, a girl i used to be able to tell anything too, now i cant even call with out geting nervouse, but still deep down in the back of my head i know we will get back together in the future, i mean we have too, when we were together it felt so right, as corny as that sounds, but its true, she has caused me massive amounts of pain, and grief, and suffering, and that all leads me to believe even more after sarkys post we were meant to be, only time will tell, i just hope its on my side

This is interesting time for this convo to pop up.

Another Time


Lying in his arms.
I am complete.
My heart beats at a steady pace.
I feel as if time has stopped still in order to allow us the chance to just be.
I don't know when or how, but there will be a time when we are one again.
The next time around will be played another way.
I will be his and he will be mine.
It's meant to be.
True love always finds a way.


This is how I feel about my soulmate. I am married to someone else and my soulmate has been my best friend for years but I also think that alot of the time you may not be meant to be in this lifetime or era but later down the road who knows. By the way both my best friend and I acknowledge that we are the other's soul mate but we both have backed off because of my marriage and his commitments to his girlfriend. But It is hard sometimes. But right now its not meant to be.

I don't know about soul-mate but my best friend and I are really close. We only met 2-3 years ago and I remember the first time I met her i got annoyed at her. it was the first day of college adn i was feeling friendly. to my smile and "hi I'm jennifer" she gave a grunt and that was it...it was a bit off a put off from being friendly..
but despite for the small amount of time we've known each other we're relly close and all our friends can see that we've got something special, which is how i like to think of it.

she's definately caused me alot of pain but, heck, i'm only 15 so what do I know?

tiem enough to find my soul-mate

an article I read regarding the difference between soul mates, twin flames, and karmic souls.


It is important to remember that there are many kinds of soul mates and each is very important to the lessons we must learn in this lifetime ... these are lessons we chose before entering this realm and should be given the honour due them ... Soul Mates help us learn these lessons and therefore although we may be seeking our Twin Flame we should never ignore other loves that come into our life for they are vital to our development and growth as spiritual beings ... just as the ostrich that puts its head in the sand out of fear ... our fear of making a mistake and getting hurt can stunt our personal growth ... Pain is a necessary part of life...we can choose how long we hold on to it once and only once it has served it's purpose ... it is necessary however to feel the pain and allow it to teach us the lesson we need to learn ...

KARMIC SOULS

Karmic Soul is a soul that we still have karma to deal with between us. Now this doesn't necessarily mean "bad" karma, it can be good karma as well. A karmic Soul Mate can be a family member (parents, brothers, sisters, cousins, etc.), a close friend, a romantic relationship, basically any relationship that has impacted our lives in any way. With these people, we always have lessons to share and these relationships can at times not be completely comfortable. Although these people invoke deep feelings (positive or negative) we seldom develop a long-term romantic relationship with a Karmic Soul Mate for these are generally mor fore lessons and growth rather than a life partner, romantically speaking ...

COMPANION SOUL MATES

These closely resemble the Twin Flame in-so-far as this is generally a relationship based on romantic love, however there is still karma between the two people involved and although the couple can learn to live within unconditional love the relationship is not based on it. Quite often Companion Soul Mates will come together for a project such as writing a book, starting a business, or even assisting one to get through a particular trial or lesson in this life. Once the project is finished often the relationship ends as well, leaving both parties scratching their heads wondering what happened ... Companion Soul Mates can and do join together as Life Partners, especially when the Twin Flame is not present in this lifetime or when for whatever reason the Twin Flames cannot be together in this life. Companion Soul Mates are still in the teaching each other lessons mode and this is one of the major differences between a Companion and a Twin, but we'll get into those differences further on ... Often Companion Soul Mates are confused with a Twin Flame, for sometimes there is not a lot of karma left between the couple. However, whenever there is any karma left to work out then the relationship is still within the boundaries of the Companion Soul Mate realm. Companion Soul Mates have known each other in many lifetimes and have loved many times. Generally when you meet a Companion Soul Mate there is an immediate attraction, Love At First Sight if you will, although sometimes there is the opposite because of the remembered hurts of the past, but this is far rarer ...

TWIN FLAMES

Twin Fames have no karma left to work out between them, they resolved all of it in past lives and come together for no other reason than unconditional love. Twin Flames love each other with no expectation of the other and with no conditions attached to the giving of that love. It is easy to say that you love someone unconditionally but you need to ask yourself could you love this person if for some reason they could not remain with you? Could you give your love to this person with no expectations, not even that the love will be returned or even recognized? Can you love this person for no other reason than there is simply no other option available to you? If you can answer a resounding (and honest) yes to all of the above then you are experiencing unconditional love. But be carful here my friend for Spirit is listening and may put that love to the test. Spirit may require that you prove yourself worthy of this love and place you in a situation wherein you must truly discover if this is an unconditional love by separating you, sometimes only temporarily, sometimes permanently, depending on what lessons you have to learn in this lifetime ... Which brings us to another point, Twin Flames are earned not given, you must prepare yourself to be able to join with your Twin flame, it is not an automatic, it is a gift. And as a gift it is truly a privilege to know your Twin Flame but you must be ready. How do you become ready you ask? Well you will have to learn to love deeper than you ever thought possible and that usually means meeting, loving and losing "near twins" to which are in reality Companion Soul Mates. Are you brave and strong enough to be able to risk loving with your heart and soul just to have the dream shattered? If not then seeking your Twin Flame is not for you for you must deepen your capacity to love before you can know unconditional love and that means experiencing pain as well as joy. The more pain you have experienced the more joy you are capable of holding within. Sometimes the cup of love must be completely shattered before it can be built strong enough to hold the love of your Twin Flame. Steel is tempered through flame and your heart must be tempered through pain before it is strong enough to protect the love of your Twin ... When Twin Flames come together they become one, they are not like each other, they are the mirror image of the other. They think alike, they hold the same values and often their life experiences are very similar, sometimes they will actually look like each otehr. By that they will have similar builds, bone structures and features. This is not however a guide as to whether you have met your Twin Flame or not ... Twin Flames do not teach each other, they learn together and help each other learn the lessons that have been set before them in this lifetime. When Twin Flames come together they join forces and are capable of overcoming obstacles the average mortal could not begin to face. They are so filled with unconditional love they literally glow with it and have much to share with others. They are the inspiration that poets write about and singers sing about ...

*broken link removed*

That's very interesting Starlye. I seem to have meant someone similar to a companion soulmate or twin flame. I have found one who I love very much, we started out as friends, but now I love her far greater then words or actions can express but she only likes me as a friend. Even though our friendship is very deep. So we remain friends & even though I hurt deep within I'll constantly give my love to her even though it is not returned.

espdracomth,

Here is what I think. First of all, you are young. Even though I met the love of my life when I was 15 it wasn't until I was 26 that I was actually able to make a go at the relationship, and then only after he found me. So my conclusion is that when we were in high school we were shown each other for a reason. So that when we met later in life we would recognize that connection. We met and only dated for a month back then, then he moved away. Always since then has he been in the back of my mind. No matter how many guys I dated after him that I don't remember, I always remembered him. I didn't think about him everyday, but when I would hear a certain song on the radio, or would remember good times in my life my memory of him would be there, just sitting idly by waiting for moments when it could pop up and say "hi". We had an amazing connection the first time. He was "the one that got away". I always regretted not trying to make things work out. Looking back, that was the way it was supposed to be. Had we, by some miracle, stayed together back then I'm not sure if we would have survived until now. I had a lot of growing up still do to and a lot of lessons to learn before he was revealed to me again. Same for him. It took me a long time to get to where I am now in regards to being ready to make a commitment on the level that we have made. I can even go so far as to say that if he had contacted me just 6 months ealier than he did, we wouldn't be where we are now because it wouldn't have been the right time.

Just remember this if you never remember anything else, everything happens as it should. You won't always understand why certain things happen, but the most important thing is to look for the lesson in what ever it is that does happen, learn from it and take that lesson with you always. When it is the right time, you will find all that you are looking for.

Hey thanks Starlyte for shedding some new light on the profoundness of life.I never really thought about it, in the way of everything happening as it should .I always thought that it was more you have a chance take it or leave it, & me being so much of an introvert, I would just not do anything, rather live in my dreams then face reality but now I'm more open & I love it.So once again thanks a lot for the wisdom.

i dont know if you guys read my post above, but recently i have been thinking about trying to get back with this girl, i havent seen her in almost a year, we mainly keep contact through email, she just got a new job and toldme i should stop by and see her, what should i do?

Hi Seeking
My advice to you is to jump in head first, don't let your chance slip away

"You never lose by loving. You always lose by holding back."

yes. i finally found my true soul mate. when i first met Mountain Gurl i was captivated by her good looks and personality. She is the one for me. we are having a (grate) time together and the future looks wonderful.

DEAD

Yup I have found my soul mate. My boyfriend and I are just too perfect of a match! We have everything in common from favorite foods, to favorite video games, to favorite dog and cat breeds! In the 6 years we've been a couple we have never even argued! We get along so well, and when I am with him I just feel so content and complete.
And now a few months ago he has moved a few hours away b/c his parents retired and moved out of state and he had no choice but to go with them :-(
But we are still a couple b/c there was no way we would let temporary distance end what we have, so we keep in contact via phone and internet, visit each other occasionally, etc. and await the day when we get good enough jobs to move out together.
Before we became a couple we were best friends for quite awhile. We met in school- well in 8th grade he was in one of my classes. We didn't talk back then but I always noticed him and felt a weird connection though i didnt think anything of it back then. Then years later, senior year in High school we had a class together again and we kinda started talking there and eventually became best friends and then a couple.
He is my perfect match and we will always be together

I think it is a great possibility that there is a “perfect” match for everyone. With all the people in this world, it would almost be unthinkable that two people could not connect on a mental, physical, and spiritual level all at once!
