Are SoulMates Realistic?

hi lenapoo! yes! i believe in soulmates and had a situation similar to yours with the wrong timing! i met my soulmate when i was 18 years old, we both literally fell in love with each other at first sight, and knew we were supposed to be together....unfortunately, he had just got married and i had just started dating his best friend! a year later he was the best man in my wedding to that best friend...we saw each other in social situations with others around through the years and never discussed this with each other, just looked at each other and knew...then his best friend and i split up and i divorced and wanted to see me...we met and the magic was there...we married twenty-five years later after our first meeting...he is my best friend, my soul mate, and i only regret we could not have been together earlier! so yes, i believe in soul mates, meant to be and happily ever after!

I actually don't know if soulmates are true. But I was happy to know that you have experienced this kind of feeling for that someone. I have not experience it yet actually. But all I am believing until now is destiny.

Soul mates. An expression, which is difficult for me to understand. I do not know if I've connected with my soul mate. My soul mate today, is MyLot. Because, MyLot that always makes me entertained, and for a moment forget all my hardship.

I want to believe I've found my soul mate which is my husband. But I don't really know if its true or if there is such thing.

I must say that yes there is such a thing as soulmates. And yes, I have experienced it. I had a terrible break up with an ex and was afraid I would never find "the one." I bet a lot of people have been in that boat. But I did. Finally. And he's the most amazing thing that has ever happened to me. I'm not shay about saying he is my soulmate either, but sometimes, people aren't so into believing it. Or understanding it, for that matter, unless they know the feeling. The way you described it is right. It's unlike any connection you've ever had with a person. You just know. You can feel it in your soul when you're near or missing that person. Hence the term, I suppose.

Definitely, there is someone out there, somewhere, somehow waiting for us to be with him or her,one way or the other, to help us make our life's easier. Sound so sweet but I think, it is true. We just don't know what is in store for us. I consider my wife as my soulmate because I believe she is the one for me. We really complement with each other. We have this unexplainable connection.

What is the exact definition of a soulmate? It's so confusing to me. I'm not happy with the definitions I found on net. Please someone make it clear. I think "lenapoo" almost put it rightly. That's what it means, I guess.

I don't believe in soulmates. I never have found that person and probaly never will. I also believe soulmates are overrated. Maybe some people find their soulmates in a relationship or in a friendship. I just don't feel that is possible. It seems unrealistic to me and other people I know.

soulmates do exist but it's not said it's the partner or the opposite gender. What you talk about (knowing what the other person feels/ how he is doing etc) has nothing to do with being soulmates. This kind of "connection" you find in all kind of relationships, also between parent and child for example but also strangers can feel others.

Yes I know what you mean... I have been married twice before and am now engaged to a beautiful Irish girl overseas... we both feel a certain bonding like we are soulmates even though we are not together yet... We know when the other is not well or something is wrong. Over the 20 year period of my previous marriages i can honestly say i never felt that bonding with them sorry to say. Maybe thats why things never worked out.. I can honestly say i am with my soulmate in heart and spirit, but not in the flesh at this time, but that will change in the next few weeks. I think a soulmate is someone that you can communicate and relate to on a higher level than mere words... Just a loving look, or action is enough to tell you how your mate is feeling and what they need. It goes beyond the meaning of love in my eyes... I dont know what you call the feeling, but it is on a different level to love... Does that make sense? Its how I feel anyway.
