SO I LIKE NEVER POST ANYMORE LOL but my bf and I were talking the other night about soul mates/perfect partners/etc and it just really got me curious about the whole thing. X:
Do you believe in soul mates? (or whatever you wanna call it)
I think I kinda do - my bf and I met under some really ridiculous circumstances (like seriously, if he hadn't done one small thing, we would never have met!) and then for both of us to be into the same things, have the same personalities, the same views of almost everything - it's almost kinda creepy lmao. Honestly, I never felt as compatible with someone as I do with him, and I don't know if I'm a total sap for feeling like this BUT I'M OK WITH THAT if that's the case lmao.
So do you guys believe in that kinda stuff? What would you define as a soul mate if you do? If you don't, why not?

Yeah, I think they're legitimate things. But I don't think it's just with like, lovers, you know? Like, my friend and I are so alike, we share almost all the same interests and activities, it's uncanny. c:

i suppose i do, only because i met the perfect man for me. & he's wonderful. kind & respectful & thoughtful. & we just ~get~ each other. we're basically the same person. he's definitely my best friend & vice versa. if i think something 90% of the time he'll say it out loud a bit later. we finish each others sentences. we have the same interests. we're both laid back, but super stubborn at the same time. we don't fight either, instead of fighting we talk it out, which i think is a big thing! i've never had the kind of connection where i could talk things out & have them seriously listen & take my pov into consideration.
i dunno if i'd really call that soul mates or not. but i don't know what else i'd call it either. lol. i just feel like he's perfect for me, & we make a lot of sense together.
i do kind of believe in fate, though. my bf & i met on a dating site. lol. but if things had gone even the slightest bit differently in our lives before we met, we'd have never signed up for a dating site, or maybe we would have at different times or something, & we might have never met. i do think things happen the way they do for a reason...sometimes you don't figure out what that reason is, but i do believe in that.

I believe in them, to an extent, haha.
I mean, I do believe soulmates exist and I believe that wholeheartedly. But it's the stories about people who meet and they coincidentally lived in the same part of the world. I just... I'm skeptical of that, to be honest. The curious part of me wonders if they were to travel around the world, would they find their true soulmate?
Then again, I have yet to meet anybody I actually could see myself even being with to any extent, much less my soulmate.
But I imagine a soulmate is somebody who compliments you, in whatever way works for you/your dynamic. I could not be with somebody like me though, haha. My close friend is like, the male version of me (or I'm the female version of him) and we constantly fight because we're both ridiculously stubborn and refuse to back down. We've physically fought because we've gotten so frustrated with each other. I would not survive with somebody like me, haha.

I believe whole heatedly in Soul Mates and fate to be honest...
My husband and I met through a mutual friend that we both had known since at least Junior High, yet Dave and I never met until after High School... when we really needed each other. To make a very long story short, Dave was diagnosed with Cancer 3 months after we met and jut 3 weeks after we started dating. We stayed together, went though everything together, and now we are together, stronger than ever. Dave tells me all the time that Im his guardian angel, and that I saved his life by giving him something to live for.
We compliment each other in so many ways, and love doing things together. He completes me.... Soul Mates ♥

In much of the sense, yes, I believe in Soul Mates... but in reality, I more so believe in "True Love" than soul mates because I don't think i believe much int he idea of souls.
My hubby-to-be and I grew up together, 7 years apart, but together. He was my brother's best friend, and from the time I was a little tyke, he used to always tell everyone "That (Ela) will make one heck of a wife one day" because I loved everything the same as him - hunting, fishing, nature, camping. Growing up, I hung out with my brother and his friends, including my now-hubby-to-be, and got to know all of his friends. Eventually, my brother and him parted ways, I never got to see him much, and really missed just his company in a non-relationship way... afriend way. He ended up having two kids with a rather awful woman, and they split up. After that, we just began hanging out and next thing you know, we realized we were happy spending time together, and that all this time, we both felt quite the same way our entire lives - We both loved eachother from day one.
So yeah, love is reality. True love is rare.. But I believe in it.

I definitely believe in soul mates as I have found mine As a christian, it ties into my belief that God has a plan for each and every person, some of which includes the perfect person/friend/etc to support and guide you.

I believe in them, yes. I don't believe soul mates are restricted to a single romantic partner, but rather I think most anyone, including animals, can be a soul mate. I don't really see it as necessarily predicated on common interests or even similar personality, though. I think a true soul mate is where your bond transcends everything else.

Yes and no? Haha
Okay, let me explain, I'm not religious but I sort of believe in the concept of fate. I don't really think "soul mates" is limited to just romantic partners, either.
Basically, I think there are definitely some people who, for some reason or another, are completely perfect for each other. And sometimes things are just... meant to be. Here's why: I met my boyfriend at uni in our first year. Before I even talked to him, I felt drawn to him. Not because I found him particular attractive or whatever, I just had... a feeling about him. After getting to know him properly we realised we had almost everything in common. So I asked him out, but he said he didn't feel the same way. But I couldn't give up on him because I still had that feeling, you know? I just somehow knew something would happen. Fast forward a year or so and we went overseas together, he kissed me and now we're together. I've felt this way about events, and other things... so I definitely think there's some kind of soul mate/fate thing going on. But I just don't believe that it has anything to do with a divine being - more like intuition or just something inexplicable and primal. Hard to explain, but I tried, haha.

Yes, I do believe in soulmates. Not necesarrily in a boyfriend/girlfriend kind of way, but just anyone with whom you share a special bond. I used to not believe so much in these things, but I made a new friend at the beggining of my freshman year of highschool that changed that, I'm gonna tell you guys the story.. but I'll shorten it for you, I don't want to make you guys read a book lol. In 4th grade my best friend since kindergarden moved to a different school, we didn't talk to each other after that. We ended up going to the same highschool, and i became friends with her friends, and vice versa. Well, I only got really close to two of them, and one more so than the other. My new best friend and I had 3 classes and lunch together, so we had more time together than me and my other friends. I am usually a really shy person, and don't make friends that well, but we just seemed to click. Within the first week of school we were like we had known each other our whole lives, we have the type of relationship that we don't fight, we can talk through things, and we don't keep secrets. That sort of stuff. Soon after we met though, I found out that she wasn't from my country, and her parents had moved here when she was just a baby. After hearing that, I think about things like, if my friend hadn't switched schools in 4th grade, I never would have met my best friend. The smallest thing could have changed my life. I definately believe in soulmates and fate, I very strongly believe in them. Sorry it's so long you guys

I do! There is this kid named Jordan and we're not dating but we both like each other hang out all the time. Everybody thinks we should date and that we act like a couple. We both have the same interests and always saying nice things about one other. I think We're not really dating because im in 8th grade and in a totally diff school and he's a freshman. I hope one day...
