Do you believe there is just one soul mate for you for all time?

I sure hope there's not just one soul mate in life! What if mine gets hit by a bus before I ever met her??? Man, then I'm screwed!! I think "soul mate" is a romanticized term we use for someone who "gets us". Someone who seems to completely understand us, shares a lot of the same interests as us and we feel like shares a true connection to us. That person doesn't even have to be our life partner. AND, more importantly, I think soul mates are made, not born. People meet, realize they have a "connection" because they like the same things and share the same view points, and a relationship of some type develops quickly. They share themselves easily with that person and, before you know it, they feel like they know each other inside and out. I've known at least three people in my life who could be my "soul mate". I believe there are a lot of people I could marry and we would get along great. There are only a handful of people I, being of the high order of "strange" that I am, can really "connect" with and searching for them would be futile. They just come along. As for loving more than one person. Well, I feel love is a verb. It begins with an attraction, but develops only with action. I'm sure we've all been attracted to more than one person in our lives. We chose whether or not to follow that up with action that allowed a love relationship to develop. We can love as many people as we choose. I think, yes, sometimes we can love two people at once. That can be a hard way to go, however.

I think if you love him you will love him forever! just as me,i love my gf and i will love her forever! i believe you would find you bliss.good luck my friend!

i believe that their is one person divinely made just for you and you will find them it will be meant to be as for marrying divorce etc., i guess that wasn't the right person for them in the first place

I do believe in soul mates. That there is someone who knows us completely enough to know what we are thinking or feeling without a word being said. Someone who finishs our sentences before we do. So is there just one per lifetime? That's a hard call to make seeing how people change so much and grow apart in this day and age. I do believe that there is only one that we find in a lifetime even though there maybe more than one out there, if that makes sense. I think we find that perfect person for us and we either make a life together or circumstances take us apart for whatever reason. Everyone else is someone we are close to and want to be with, someone that we still love, but not to the same degree as our soul mate. The lucky ones get to live their life with their soul mates by their side. 7

no...theres no such thing as soulmate

there is not only one person in our life for marriage or love if our first marriage got unsuccessful we could have second if our first love is unsuccessful we could have second or may be third fourth depends sometimes we love two or three persons at a time and we feel same for all of them love transfers from person to person depends on the opposite person thats why we could never have just one soul mate for our whole life time

I think the soul mate concept is a nice idea but not that realistic. The idea that there is just one person in the whole world that's right for you? I mean I'm in Scotland - what if my soul mate was in China or Venezuela or the US? I do think that there are people who are entirely "in tune" with each other but I think it's possible to meet more than one of them in a lifetime. Not that I've even met one of them yet but I live in hope! I also agree with you that you can love people in different ways and I do think you can also love more than one person at the same time although it's obviously not the best of situations to be in.

Yes I believe that there is just one soul mate for you. Now I also do believe we don't always end up with that person for the rest of our lives. Sometime your soul mate was the one who got away.

Loving two or persons at the same time is possible but both will be in different ways. [Coz, that's what I'm in now!:-)] And one among them can be the soul mate. But two soul mates at the same time is unimaginable. If someone else with more understanding and more care comes across, sometime it may change though.

It is possible for humans to love many different people. As you say not all at one time so when you find a love you quit looking. No one else at that point could ever look so good to you. If you believe there is only one person for you it means you must keep looking for them until you find them. However you are looking for something you can not clearly define. You can love, and love deeply, but if you ask yourself is this my soul mate your answer may be no because they don’t quite fit what you think your soul mate should be. If there truly is only one person for you consider the odds of ever finding them. Very slim because you will always be looking and never committing. It is possible to love several people throughout your life. If you found what you considered your soul mate and you loose them then by definition you are destined to be alone for the rest of your life. You have fooled yourself for there are so many wonderful people that would be perfect for you that you could love dearly as they would you.

i think there can be more than one soul mate,but not at the same time,when u are in a relationship u feel that person to be your soul mate,but when u break up with that person and again meet other person and fall in love u feel the same think again,i think there can be more than one soulmate,at different times of life

i have no idea that whether there is just one soul mates for me for all time !1 but i hope there would be

I know that this is not really an answer, but I'm not sure. I mean, I can think that I have met my soul mate but then lose him and find someone else who I think is my soul mate. But if there is only one true soul mate for me, obviously the guy who I lost wasn't him, and maybe the current one isn't him. So if we go by the theory that we have only one soul mate we can think that we have found him but unless we know for certain, we could be wrong and the true soul mate is wandering around somewhere else. I know that probably didn't make sense. I guess what I'm saying is that I don't believe that there is only one soul mate for us. It makes more sense in my head that there can be many people out there who touch my soul and leave their impression. It happened to me once and I thought he was my sould mate. He could have been but it wasn't the right time. I would think that there is someone out there who is much like him and I could love that person as much as I loved Mr Potential Soulmate. Wow, if you make any sense of what I just wrote I'm going to send you a blue ribbon. LOL

Soulmates are the people with whom we have an easy rapport and an share a similar wave-length. I dont think one can have only one soul mate throughout the whole life. I believe that we can love more than one person and can can have different soulmates at differrent stages in life

In my opinion my gf is for me for my whole life my soul late.. n i also think u can love only one time.. thats not true u can give the same love to ur secound mate.... i dont think so... thnx 4 wonderful topic...

i read a book about soulmates and the views there I agree with. . . don't equate relationships with your soulmate. . talking about souls, it doesn't die. it just gets reborn. and when it chooses to be reborn is its prerogative. . so in this lifetime, your soulmate may still be hovering about in heaven so you really won't meet that. or it could have been reborn as your child, so that the soul occupying the body of your child is your soulmate. with all the people in the world, and with us being in a very small space compared to the vastness of the continents, how can we be so definite that we've met our soulmate? you know, i'd bet, the saying "the eyes are the windows to the soul". . .well, in spite of appearances, age or cultural differences, looking through the eyes of someone, that's how our souls could recognize each other as being the true soulmates.

I too believe with u that a person will love more than one partner in a life time which i have personally experienced. I dont beleive in one soulmate concept .It depends on the individual but many people I have seen in my life have more than one soulmates

there's really no definitive meaning of the word 'soul mate' except for the one that you're suited to believe in. when we meet someone and we 'clique', that's soul mate for one. and then when we lose it, the word doens't even come close to surface. it's like actors saying 'you're only good as your last show'. and so i think that the one who lasted long enough as you do in the arena of love and relationship - that's close enoughto a 'soul mate' one would like to have it named as such.

VIGNETTE;- Love personified, often as the Roman god Cupid. And love is an intense feeling of deep affection and in the mean time generating to that effects for any relationship that has been made. Love is just like an energy, neither created nor destroyed. SUMMARY TO YOUR POINT OF DISCUSSION'- From my 'vignette' above, my conclusion is that nobody can firmly concluded 'Love for just One' as it depends on advantages and disadvantageous that will be getting by individual as human being. The needs of love varies from one person to another. And the varieties of love that's happening making love is the essence for one's life. Love is to make life as creator Own up and shifting between sadness and happiness Varies on it's needs Exciting and rewarding in one's feeling. That is my truly words for LOVE and I never copy from any human beings. FOOTNOTE;- Be Best For All. With Kindest Regards, Me; Michael

Hi wotfpatty! Thanks for posting about this, it made me think too about soulmates. Some even said that if you're a girl, you also have a girl soul mate. I guess, when we mean soulmate in this sense, he/she is somebdoy who can understand, love, care and accept you as YOU - in and out. I had the conservative point of view since then - that ALL of us has only one soul mate. But years later, I learned that it isn't that way. You're right. We can love more than one person in different ways. And lastly, I believe that you are the one who choose to be the soulmate of somebody. :) God bless! \(",)_
