Yes , but not because I believe for myself but because I've seen it happened to 4 of my friends over the years .

Nope, it's just people telling themselves that to feel better.

Maybe the idea of a soulmate gives people hope for happyness, even if its fools hope.

Soulmate = perfect mate

No, I don't believe in it. But I do believe that any relationship changes with time and requires effort to sustain it.

The high failure rate for relationships exists because we expect to keep something great without applying effort.

I've had relationships that have remained constant, with no effort to sustain it.

All this sustaining nonsense is the backward desire for drama, nothing more.

While it's interesting to fantasize about, haven't really decided if such a mystical love actually exist. I would write more, but my phone objects.

I'm not a believer of this kind of thing:yeah: but there been these moments, when i meet a girl and feels like I've known her for long time .

it happened 2-3 times, we were more friendlier, warmer, not much needed to get along and there a strong attraction too :cool:

Is that what it feels like , when someone found a soul mate :dunno: and it's strange for someone like me, who's not considered friendly or warm .

The concept of soulmates is a human construct and, in reality, is nonexistent.

Heh, such a belief would make no difference. If it does exist, then the probabilities of meeting that someone would be incredibly low. Such a concept would be an injustice to actually exist.

I think this answer first requires a sort of definition of what a 'soul mate' is.

I do not necessarily believe there is 'one person' that one is fated to meet in a romantic sense. While I do believe there is a sort of 'force of destiny' that has a way of gravitating people into each other - I do not believe there is 'only one.'

That said - I do believe that there are people out there who can share bonds that transcend the known physical world. Perhaps, with enough research, it will cease to be mysticism... but there are just those people who you have a relationship with that is difficult to describe.

That doesn't mean it is 'effortless' or 'without conflict' - it just means that two people are inherently able to understand each other or even seem to share knowledge of each other in means that defy current physical explanation.

I do believe in such things.

And I do believe that the best romance can come from such a relationship.

It's just a challenge of finding someone who you can actually share that bond with and who wants to be romantic with you (sometimes you have to wait for a person to be ready... sometimes you just have to find a person who is ready...).

I met my soulmate at birth
No one can love me more than I love myself.

I don't interpret a soul mate only in a romantic sense. Sometimes when I read a book, let's say a philosophic one, I may feel that the author totally shares my perspective and I can relate to everything he/she says. It can be a character as well: that I'm exactly like that character from the story.

That said, unfortunately I don't think you will always be on good terms with your soul mate. Some say that opposites attract each other, some believe in 'similis simile gaudet'. Sometimes a soul mate is someone who understands you, sometimes he/she is very different, yet you feel a connection. In any case, it is someone who complements you. Bu it doesn't always comes naturally. Sometimes it takes a lot of time and effort.

In short, I don't think there is one destined soul mate, a perfect "other half of you" , but there are many people with whom you can connect and form bonds (key word is to form: I doubt that you can magically realize who is your soul mate without spending time together.)

I think everyone has their soul mate. There are billions out there, chances are high that there are people who share similar personality. But you have to search and find them. And even if you find them, it doesn't mean you can't lose them. Because people change- or, by getting to know them more and more, you realize they are not who you were looking for.

I have found very few people who shared a portion of my ideals and thoughts, let alone understanding me. On the other hand, I failed to understand some persons whom I really wanted to. In the end I couldn't keep them.
