Would you leave a stable relationship if you think you found the right one?

You are in a stable relationship, you are happy but you feel like something is missing. And then he or she comes along and you feel as if that person is your soul mate, the person who's been missing in your life. Would you go for it?

I can say that I left a stable relationship because I wasnt happy, I was living the daily life just going along but not feeling like i was happy with my life as it was. I met a man on the internet thru a game sight and we became friends, than after many months we became more, I thought long and hard about the life i was living and if I realy wanted it to change as I had everything I ever needed money, home,ect. but I wasnt happy.
I ended the marriage after 30 years because I was sure the man I met was my soulmate, it turned out I was right
he is my soulmate and we are now married and very happy.
I dont suggest you to do this with out thinking long and hard about the ones your going to hurt in the proccess because it may turn out that this person is not your soulmate and you may have hurt a lot of people for no reason.

You are very lucky and very courageous for even considering taking the leap of faith, not all people get to be with their soulmates.

it's a harsh way of putting it but it's just plain and simple truth, more or less.

I think I will follow my heart. Cause I can't lie myself if I don't love somebody and when I love somebody. So, if I was on that position, I will follow my own heart and go to the man that I love. I will give all the explanation that the man that have together with me which is in this case, i'M NOT IN LOVE with. I'm sure if he love me, he will let me go.

I don't think I will leave my stable relationship just because of the 'Feelings'. I only will leave my lover if I don't love him anymore. If it already called 'Stable' that means we both have understanding and feel comfortable and love to each other. Besides, sometimes we may get confuse about the 'feelings'. At start you may felt strongest passion but when time passes and the storm of emotions calm down... you may feel that nothing so special of that person anyway..
Well.... this is my opinion. So is up to you to decide anyway when you face this kind of situation.

When you feel like something is missing in what you call a stable relationship, then I dare say you're not completely happy. Deep inside you long for someone/something. So if I would be in this situation, I would definitely go for it. I know, someone would be hurt but isn't there would be more hurts if you continue to be in a relationship that would end eventually?
