I've heard this before but I have NO idea if this is really true.

I have had a few people in my life to whom I could/can really identify with but I wouldn't consider them my "Soul Mates".

I know of someone with whom I feel strongly attracted to and not in just a romantic way, but in other ways which I find startling. I have no idea if he is a "Soul Mate" because I've never had one before.

I believe it's possible to have a "Soul Mate" who's a great friend but not necessarily a lover. So who knows, time will tell.

hmm, out of all my friends i've had in life this man was the only one who fit the term soul mate. There was a connection on a deeper level, he left though and I don't think he cares but regardless he is a soul mate and I always want him in my life. A soul mate can be a friend a lover or a partner, possibly a family member you get along really well with.

I think what these people are talking about though is a partner soul mate.

I'm wondering why people would think there is one and only one? Why can't there be none, or 2 or 3 in that case? The soul is a complex thing and its not split into two halves simply because its an animal behaviour to "mate" for life in many cases. The soul is not an animal.

My ex is my soulmate. We can't be together because of long distance, though. So yeah, that's her gone and depresses any hope of dating anybody ever again.

I don't believe in soul mates. And I feel like I can be happy without a significant other (though I would like to have one eventually).

I would be much more surprised if I ever do find someone to love than if I don't.

It's possible, but who knows how many "Soul Mates" anyone can have, who really knows? I don't and you don't either. [hale_bopp wrote, The Soul is not an animal] I don't think so either. Some of us, might never have a "Soul Mate", others might have many but that doesn't mean EVERYONE will. That's my point hale_bopp.

I often feel like this too. It's easy for me to like someone, but not easy for me to find someone I can handle being around a lot.

I found mine years ago & the connection was so strong; if we had been adopted; I would of suspected that she was my genetic younger sister or something 8O Rite now I want to find a woman who's willing to give me a chance & try to make things work. I find it really hard to believe that I can find someone else who I'll have that strong a connection with & in some ways I mite be better off without that connection. I'm not sure I could handle losing someone who I have that kind of connection with again. I would of done anything to help her & in the end I mite of hurt her & I nearly destroyed myself :(

Yes, alas, I think I'll never find a G/F/ wife. I have very poor self esteem, and low social skills, so I wouldn't know where to start with women. And I've a few years over the OP: I'm 27. :cry:

There's no such thing as soul mates. There are some people that cause more of a chemical reaction in your brain than others. There are many different people in the world that can cause said reaction.

It's not illogical to believe you'll find one that does that for you.
