I have been told there is one person for everyone out there. And nothing will keep them from you,distance,other people, being unready,divorce , another relationship, nothing, you will end up with your soulmate. You just have to be positive, love yourself, make room in your life and be ready and your soulmate will come. Do all of you out there believe there are soulmates and that love will find you??

Sounds great in a novel, but most times your soulmate is the one willing to put up with your crap, and still be there for you. Life is funny though, and you may have more than one. I think I have, but the one I have now is the best.

No, no, no, no. There is no such thing as "The One". People make each other the one. If you believe in the sanctity (not necessarily religious in origin) of a promise at all, then you just decide to bleeding buckle down and make it work. Otherwise, what is the point of a concept like marriage? If there is such a thing as a soulmate (which, obviously, I deny), then the promises made in marriage would not matter, since either you are not bound to the other person, or 'fate' has called you together.

If people need excuses for failing in a relationship, I guess that the statement "I haven't found my soulmate yet" is the best. That way, they don't have to make any emotional effort.

Makes for some, a very lonely and miserable life.

Ah, what would we do without our excuses!.

I don't believe in the one. In my opinion and discussion with others there are many people who you could have a perfectly good relationship with, there are some who you will get on better than others though. Eventually things are going to go into a 'rut', its just how you live with each other and what mutual understanding you have and how you keep that spark going.

I do believe that just as there is certain talents or tastes that people are wired towards, there are certain people that we are "mostly" compatible with.

This can also bring in the argument that just as we can learn certain talents (like learn to dance ballet, or take singing lessons, or learn to build furniture, etc), we can also learn to love certain people.

I believe two things when it comes to soulmates:

(1) The idea gives people the false illusion that there is someone out there that you will automatically love; just because.
This is not true. I think your soulmate is the person you work hard at keeping a relationship with. And relationships are obviously damn hard when fifty percent of marriages fail now.

(2) I read this somwehere, and I also believe it: Your soulmate is the person you don't let go to find out who your soulmate is.

I do not believe in the soul mate theory either. No matter what E-harmony says! I think the term has been used to hype emotion and drive people to the edge of madness, searching for their soul mate. When you find a good person who can love you even when you gained 20 pounds or lost your job or stick together through the death of your child and not blame either one for that death, you have found one who gives you unconditional love. Does that mean it lasts forever? No. There are no guarantees with life, except death and taxes.

Edit: I should not be so cynical. Love can last the lifetime.

It's getting harder and harder especially if you are studying medicine, but I strive and push myself to believe because even if it were false there is nothing like that feeling that the other might be the one when you fall in love.

I believe it :)

SOULMATE- One who has your back, after you have been dumb and stupid. And then you realise!! But they are in your corner any way!!
