Do you believe in soul mates? Or that there is a perfect match out there?

Question

How long does it take to find out if a person you are is your soul mate? Do you know immediately, after a few months, or after a year? Is the perfect match part, things that you match on the outside, like, say, similar taste in music, food, college subjects? Or is it deeper, like having had similar childhoods, similar psychological problems, being able to connect on a deep psychological level, understanding each other at a deep level, etc. ?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Women tend to think so and men know better. Familiarity tends to breed contempt and if opportunity exists, one or the other is usually gone. Only exception is when both respect each other and that ain't soul mates, that's  being a good person.

Answer 2

Yes, and  I knew immediately too.. but we went thru a lot the first year. We're married now!

Soulmates dont think about being with other people once they are together. The butterfly in stomach feeling never runs out. The s*x never gets boring. The smiles are never fake. You can talk for hours, but say just as much in one sentence.

We share a lot of the same interests, but not all. I can cook the food he likes, but he doesnt like all my favs as much as i do, so we just compromise. But neither of us is real picky. Its great.

Our childhoods were also simaliar but his was worse. We have the same morals and values and goals.

You know because you will both feel deep passion, you dont know the meaning of passion til you feel this!

If you split, or spend any time apart, you feel like you cant live without the other, but you will do everything to make each other smile.

When you feel emotions together, you feel them Physically too.

I dont think soulmates have the same college interests or jobs. But you never know? If you're too alike its boring. it think Thats why we compromise.

He has also never called me any names even when we fought. A soulmate will never hurt you or leave you. But we rarely fight, and always completely figure it out.

I think most people never find theirs.

Oh and my husband's bday is within 24 hours of mine, maybe this is why we are so good together???

I think there is not just one "perfect match" in the world.  There can't be.  I think there are many "soul mates" that you can fall in love with and who will make you incredibly happy.  You really just need to find one of them, and realize how perfect you are for each other, and then make a commitment to each other forever.  I think finding a "soul mate" involves ALL of the things you just mentioned.  I think without the "outside" things, it would be difficult, maybe even impossible to foster a relationship in the first place.  On the other hand, i think the most important thing, without which I wouln't call the other person a "soul mate," is that deep level.  If you cannot connect on a deeper level than similar tastes and similar life experiences, then you cannot expect to connect on the level of the soul.  I think that while it is romantic to believe that there is ONE perfect match for everyone, it would almost make it even more frustrating to find a soul mate.  What if you never meet each other, or what if one of you dies, or whatever.  There can't just be one person out there who you can connect with on a deeper level or very few people would be able to claim that they'd found "true love."  From the movie American Pie, "there's a reason they call it 'making love.' "  You have to make love work, it doesn't just show up on your doorstep under a full moon on the 7th of November because it was destined to.

Answer 4

soul mates do exist - i think you would know immediately

Answer 5

yes I belive in soul mates. no one can really give you a specific time when you'll meet Him/her, but when you do it's a feeling. Your soul mate doesn't have to be like you just connect with you. You and your soul mate fit together like puzzle pieces. It's just that simple and just that compex. :)

Answer 6

Sorry, soul mates don't exist.

Edit:  There are currently 6.7 billion people in the world.  Excluding all of those who are the wrong gender, age, orientation and nationality alone narrows the field quite a bit.  Then, you need to locate this person who is "somewhere" in the 150 million km² of land on earth.  That's assuming they're even still alive.  A couple hundred billion people have already died; what if your soul mate lived at another time in history, or hasn't been born yet?  Do you really think it's possible to overcome those odds?

Stop focusing on a "perfect match" or else you'll risk staying single forever.  If you only find someone who is a "good" match, you should consider yourself lucky.  Many people never even accomplish THAT much.

Answer 7

time which run has told us that there're no any soul mates physically or mentally even for a twin. because they were each delivered (borned) not at the perfectly same time
