How strongly do you believe that there is someone that is destined for you to marry? If ever you have known that person, will you be able to miss the chance when destiny has made you cross your paths together?? Even if you let him go, will he be able to come back if he is the one destined for you? Or on the other hand, if he loves another girl for now, will he be able to become yours if he is really meant for you, or do you have to do something and make things happen?? What do you think?

I don't believe in destiny at all. I think people have to have attitude. Not sit and wait because their destiny is already ready. I think everybody is able to do whatever they want to. Nobody is that special to have a better destiny than anyone. Because if one person is sucssesful and the other isn't is the same to say that the first person's destiny is better than the second's one. And NOBODY is better than someone. And as I said before, everybody is able to do whatever they want to do! But if a person is lazy and/or doesn't have attitude... Will never have their ideal life or whatever they want to have.

I think so, although I haven't been in love seriously, I know that it will come at the right time. I really believe that we are created by God with a purpose and He has plans for us. Included in those plans are the right man/woman that He has prepared for each of us. Right now, I am still waiting. Although there is sombody that I like a bit right now, but still I don't want to commit myself in the relationship because I don't think He is the right one for me. Actually, I always pray for that right person to come. Do you?

I don't believe in destiny in relation to marriage. I think that you choose your own path in life and whatever you choose is either going to have positive or negative consequences so they say choose your path well! I think that life is about action! If you take some kind of action then there is obviously going to be some kind of result. Andrew

when it comes to love,I don't believe in destiny.I think that you have to find the right person for you.you have to date several guys before you find the one for you.you have a choice on who to marry.no one will choose the man you'll marry but you only.

I don't believe in destiny, faith or karma. There is no destiny, just the life that we create by our selves. I don't believe that there is a person somewhere in the world who is ment for me or anyone else.

Well, I kinda believe in destiny because we are all destined to do something in life, we all have a purpose. If you guys are meant to be then you guys are meant to be. In doesn't matter when or where, if you guys are destined for each other then it'll happen. If you guys are not, then it means there's someone out there that's the one for you. You don't do any actions to it, not unless you want it to be your destiny. We make our own decisions. So I guess that means we can change or maybe cheat? With our destiny. But then its hard to go against nature. So yeah. You should just let things happen by itself, it'll be less stress and you'll be able to move on :)

i really don't dwell so much in this kind of issue... so it goes to show that i really depend on destiny... i like the way you ask questions... :) uhmmm.... i strongly believed that choosing a partner or being attached to somebody is a choice. if we want somebody, it requires so much effort and if that person isn't really for you then it always has a reason...

I believe in destiny, but we are also the one who make our own destiny. So it's different when we talk about destiny in love and destiny in life. There is someone who is really destined to be with you, and only time can tell. In life its our choices and decisions that makes our destiny.

I do believe in destiny since I heard that my friend's parent met after some years of not seeing each other. They didnt look for love, love looked for both of them.

Of course! But it's still up for the two people on how they will make it works. It's not about fate, it's about love adn foundation.

For me it is us who makes our destiny. The persons or people we meet is not by a chance but by a reason. It's so deep to explain it here so I cant details what I mean. Well it us who feels the love inside and we are also the one who decides who will be beloved by us.

I do believe in destiny, i think my husband and i were destined for each other. We met when i was singing in a karaoke competition the week he came home from his deployment in korea. Id never met him, and hed never met me, but our parents have known each other since they were kids, and i knew his parents and he knew mine, but for some reason we didnt know each other.he had gone there with my uncle, and him and my uncle had been friends for a while. He saw me from across the room and told my uncle that he thought i was pretty, and my uncle said "thats my niece, the one i brought you here to hear sing" haha. Then he heard me sing and he said he's loved me ever since. He'd been trying to get me to date him for a while, but i was pregnant at the time, and didnt want anything to do with anyone because of the situation id been in with my daughters father. But he said he didnt care i was pregnant, and was persistent. I finally decided to give him a chance when i had the baby. I actually called him when i was in labor. I dont know why, but he was the first person i called. He was stationed in fort bragg and couldnt come, but he came to see me a week later, and we've been together ever since. We got married when my daughter was 2 months old, and we've been married almost a year now, and i couldnt picture myself without him. I love him so much.

no,i don't believe in destiny...
i think that is something were to happen,it's there because you made it happen.bums on streets are "bums" because their parents may be didn't have enough money to support them.the didn't finish school etc..etc.
there are numerous reasons as to why people are where they are today..connections,talent and families help.

The romantic in me would love to believe in romantic destiny, but just can't. My husband thinks I'm his soul mate. I just think I got really, really lucky. It makes for good stories though! I just think that even if there was destiny, we humans would do a pretty good job of messing it up. So even if I did believe in destiny, it wouldn't be in that immutable way that you're implying.
