Do you believe in soulmates?

[chavasarah]

Is it just a romantic idea or did u ever met someone that you thought he or she was half of your soul

[amyrouse]

Yes and no.

I believe that relationships are an everyday conscious decision.  I love my husband wholeheartedly, and I want to spend the rest of my life with him.  Every morning when I wake up I make a decision, both unconsciously and consciously, to be with him.  Its part of my basic human nature...the same as it is for everyone.

^ that sounds like a good answer.

i also make that conscious/unconscious decision
to be with "the one" because i believe it was meant
to be. every single thing about our relationship is
unique and connected in strange ways, and the things
our relationship has survived...  soulmates
is a pretty good explanation. i couldn't fathom feeling
this way about another person, honestly.

but, i don't think this is necessarily true for all
people. it definitely tells my story, but for something
like a soulmate to fall into your lap is rare, i think.

no

I believe in a soulmate and I believe I have found mine!

[ladycasshmere]

Yes i believe in soulmates. Maybe because I found mine in high school I am a believer

[lgemini]

Yes I found my soulmate.  I hope people know just because you found your soulmate that everything is find.  You do have ups and downs, but when you know you will do anything for that person.

I do believe that some people are meant to be together where some are not!

It is just a romantic idea in my opinion.  Just a couple of people who are extremly compatiple or in the case of mormans and those who believe in polygamy a few people.

Great answer, Amy. I did the same thing in my marriage, but it has got to come from your other half also, they need to make that same decision every single day. It didn't take me too long, after 13 years, to realize my (now) ex was deciding anything BUT that when he woke up. Se la vie....I did just fine without him and he missed seeing our sons become men and will never see any of our grandchildren, all by his own choice.

I believe there are thousands of people that are right for you the trick is just finding one.  I don't believe a soul mate is necessarily the opposite sex.  A soul mate can be someone you get along with and have a lot in common with on lots of levels not just as a romantic relationship.

[angsilva2000]

I dont really believe in soulmates.

[ninajay]

Nah... don't believe in soulmates. Just a romantic idea

No offense, but he sounds like a loser, Jdog.  Honestly, he's not only missing out on his progeny, but he's missing out on you, too! 

I agree, definitely, that relationships are dependent upon the mutual everyday conscious decision.  As of right now, I'm lucky to be with someone who feels the same way I do.  I will think myself even more lucky if we're both in that same frame of mind ten years from now.

No, I also think this is just a romantic idea.
