YES.. yes i believe they do tiger. what i sometimes wonder though is.. do we only have one in our life time? a soul mate is someone who just fits with you perfectly... we all grow and change and a soul mate may very well grow and change with you... however, if they dont, you will stay great friends with them and move on.. will there now be another soul mate out there that fits with you perfectly, one that wouldnt have, had you of met years earlier.

i will PM you something that will make you happy!

Have you read the Brian Weiss book? called Many Lives, Many Masters.... it talks about hypnosis and remembering past lives and how people encounter their soulmate in every life... it doesnt have to be the person you marry.. a soulmate can be your brother/sister/husband/ etc.... its an interesting book. I do believe in soul mates.

welcome to ES Maribel.

no, i havnt read that book... im not sure about other lives but i do believe we can have many soul mates in this life.

even with regards to best friends. at some stages in life i have had friends that are so close to my heart. they are still close friends but not in the way they were when our lives were similar.. we move on and change, other people fit the space we need filled in our hearts.

i'm not really sure what this term means but if I had to guess perhaps it means someone who connects with you on an emotional basis and seems to understand you as deep as your soul? I don't think this has to be just one person, perhaps there are many who could connect with us on that level. However, there have been people who claimed to be soulmates and then ended up divorced so who's to say? I think if you have that connection just be thankful and call it love [Wink]

Yes i think that soul mates exist, i'm not so sure whether they are as perfect as we imagine though or whether you just feel 'meant to be'. I used to think that you would find many, but now im not so sure, after alot of years id say i've only found one, so there cant be that many about can they? Without sounding soppy, i think your soul mate is when you can be with them all the time, yes they annoy you (but we annoy ourselves) from time to time, but they feel like you've always been with them...

Albino, you are too smart to miss the meaning of my sentence.

You told him he is going to marry his cousin. I asked you - do you mean that little 9 year old?
It has nothing to do with you and your cousins.

I believe I found my soulmate. It was like I had known him all of my life. His eyes, voice and attitude made me relax and feel loved and safe - eventhough it was the first time we talked.

We MUST have met in a previous life [Smile]

For me, I'm not sure if the concept of 'soul mates' really exist. But I keep an open mind. Its never happened to me. I've fallen in love and then out of love. Might be a little late in the day for the soulmate thing to be happen to me! Maybe it will, maybe it wont, but its not something I look for, or pine for or cry over. If it happens, it will be a bonus.
(I've learnt not to expect too much!!)

been there done that [Roll Eyes] more then once..lol Soul Mate -- somebody with whom somebody else naturally shares deep feelings and attitudes. We all have had that a time or two [Big Grin] However ...the way I use to perceive "Soul Mate" which was that you love someone so profoundly,it makes you happy to do things for them (no matter how big or small) you rush home from work just to see your "soul mate" because you missed everything about them ,their smile,the way they smell, the way you feel when your with them, the way you make each other laugh when your fixing dinner "Together",How excited you both feel when you look deep into each others eyes right before that deep passionate "I'm happy to be right here, right now with you kiss" . the feeling you get just sitting beside each other arm to arm,or his head laying in your lap as you run your fingers thru his hair (providing he has hair [Big Grin] ) when you make love it's so passionate, slow,(not every time of course)(also lasting more then 5 minutes [Eek!] ) It's soOooOo deep and intense that the orgasmic experience leave you crying uncontrollaby..... [Embarrassed] Nope I now know, that kind of "Soul Mate" only exist
on T.V. or in our minds. But the thought is a pleasurable one don't you think? [Big Grin]

I believe that there is such a thing as a soul mate. It's happened once in my life. He's now gone because I was stupid. [Frown]

Hi Tigerlily,

Yes I do strongly believe in Soulmates. As the matter of fact I just got a call from my Soulmate today ( now my ex ). We are seperated and leading own lives for over 14 years. We went through so much but at the end we became great friends, and we keep in touch from time to time ( birthdays, holidays, something major ).

This man is assisting me in my Journey and I assist him too. I wrote him 4 pages letter and he called me from the Court House when he was on brake ( from another country ) and told me no matter what I chose in my life, he will always luv me, as a human being, as a Soul.

Soulmates are people you instantly feel deep connection with. There is some type of "recognition" going on. Soulmates have completely different rules when they are in a relationship.

They remain in your life somehow because they are so forgiving and accepting. Many things are happening simulteniously to both of you and you both grow and spiritually evolve together without knowing at first that he/she is your Soulmate but you have a strange feeling that you know this person from somewhere and that you lived before maybe, another life, maybe you saw this person somewhere - there is a huge connection and urge to remain connected in any way possible and you are acting and feeling everything in such a way that regular relationship rules and knowledge don't work because soulmates have special rules - unconditional love - and this is almost beyond your will as if you are incapable to - be any different, towards this person 'only' and nobody else.

You can feel each other's pain, even when appart, you encourage him, you support him - when everyone fails... he shows up to support you acting like your Angel and protecting you, shielding you, healing you, supporting, loving you. Not judging you, and despite everything - still accepting you. But only you - this is a soulmate thing, you can be like this with 1 person and unlike this with everyone else.

Bottom line, after all challenges there is a stage in which you want him to be the most happiest man alive and he wants the same for you. There is no jealousy and envy or any negative wishes. You master all weakness and You will not say a wrong word to avoid hurting him, because his hurt is your hurt. You know this. He does the same. You have this capability with him, not necessarily with others.

It's not physical or emotional heavily romantic, it's a soul pure thing - it's soul recognition, and all because you 2 are supposed to go through hell and many challanges but simulteniously arrive to the spiritual sameness. Thus he is your Soulmate.

I dont (believe in soul mates that is)
But thats just my personal view.
I wouldn't knock anyone who thinks they believe or think they have found theirs. If they are happy, thats a good thing, and I am happy for them. Its just not so something I can believe in.

I dont believe in soulmates .......... you can always hook up with people whom you believe they are your soul mates or the love of your life but it turns out to be an illusion.

And i dont believe there is one person for each person......... you can still have more that one person in your life time (not at the same time ofcourse) who maybe right for you.

Anyway there are factors that a play role in keeping or distroying a relationship........ effort, effort & effort

i must add that if you believe in soule mates crap (sorry) you may end up not noticing real love when it comes your way because you are having high impossible standards that usuall y nobody will ever be good enough to live up to

Yes, there is a soul mate for every one of us. It is just a matter of luck to meet him/her and not all of us are lucky...

Actually I shouldn't have been that harsh with you.

I apologize, it was uncalled for.

I still think of you as my giant bug!
