Do you believe in having more than one soulmate?

If you do, tell me why. . . As for me, I'm a hopeless romantic, so I believe that there can be only one person who's truly meant to be yours. . .

I don't know that I believe in 'soul mates' at all to be perfectly honest. :( I used to think that maybe there was some truth to it, some sort of cosmic balance, but now I'm not so sure.
It's not due to heart break, or any other melodrama.
I have just met a few guys who got it into their heads that I was 'the one' when I wasn't as into it as they were. They would have been more than happy to believe that I was their soul mate, because they didn't know any better.
I have a feeling that's what a lot of people are like. They think the person they settle down with is perfect, and the perfect one for them, but that's only because they don't know any better. :P
I don't mean to be overly pessimistic, this is just a theory. (I like to play devil's advocate.)
I hope you find your soul mate, even if I'm not sure they exist. I hope you can prove me wrong, because even in my negativity I do adore happy endings.

I appreciate your reply. :-) It's okay also if you think that way but I still hope that one day, you'd change your mind. :-) Maybe the right man hasn't come along yet. . . If this can help, I believe my boyfriend is my soulmate. . . We've been together for almost 10 years now and we really know each other. Like, we finish each other's sentences and at some point we already knew what the other one is thinking without saying a word! hahaha But I know this isn't the first time you heard these things. Of course, your soulmate doesn't have to be someone you're in love with. It can be one of your parents or siblings or relatives or anybody else. . . But I do believe there's someone out there for all of us. But the question is, is it only one? hahahaha

it seems that everybody in the discussion believes so yet i hope you'll accept my little sharing...
my answer is no because I believe that one can have a lot of soulmates... basically soulmate doesn't necessarily mean someone who is meant for you, but can be one of those who are compatible to the kind of person that you are insead... our friends, lovers can all be our soulmates at the same time...maybe that's why we go along well with them...
it's still your fate?or your choice? which will determine who's really meant for you and that can be one of the many soulmates...
it's funny because a friend and I just realized in a conversation awhile ago the possiblity that we are soulmates... we even claim that maybe we were twins in our past lives because of the many similarities in our lives' perspectives...our usual instincts in each other's feelings...which made us thought that our souls are getting along well with each other.. yet both of us believe that we're not meant to be as you thought of what soulmates are... thanks...hehehe

Hey same here!
There is no such thing as more than one soulmate! Never!
That is like being selfish and wants to have everything which is so wrong.
