The idea of soulmates is the queerest thing I've ever heard.
I believe its possible, but like Shlup said, you have to work for it. I think its too much of a bother, therefore I don't have any interest in it.
I don't believe in soulmates I don't think it is true at all unless you do something nothing will happen to you I used to believe in fate I used to think one day some girl will talk to me and we would be together forever blah blah blah but as time went on (well not THAT long I'm only 12) and I realized unless I get the guts to talk to another girl and ask her out, nothing is going to happen.
I met and married my soulmate.
had one hay-ll of a time finding her, lemme tell you.
it's not been all wine and roses, either, mostly because of me and my faults. and because she leaves dirty laundry lying about. and likes shopping entirely too much. and makes the bathroom smell like girl farts. girl farts are nasty. much worse than guy farts because guy farts may stink, but girl farts just smell WEIRD.
what was I talking about?
oh yeah! sorry. alzheimer's I guess. old farts like me get that sometimes.
on a planet of 6 billion people, the likelihood of your finding the one person you're meant to be with forever are exceedingly slim. so, ya gots ta be looking, your heart and mind must be open, but at the same time, you can't be constantly looking for that person. You'll find her when you're meant to find her. Some things you can change. other things you can't change. no matter how much you want to.
why?
cuz.
I think the perfect person for everyone does exist... but like others have said, only if you work at it. Just cause someone is meant for you doesn't mean they're just given to you and that's it.
I'm in agreeance with Shlup and The Cappy. You can't just sit around in the highest room of the tallest tower, waiting for Prince/ss Charming to show up on some noble steed. You DO have to work at it. Some people have said that love is 'too much work' and that it shouldn't be hard if it's meant to be. That's poppycock. Nothing worth having ever comes easy, you know.
What's all this love s*** about?
STATEMENT
We were all born alone and we'll all die alone.
So get over it.
I think there are many people out there who we could end up being happy with... relationships aren't given to us, we make them.
Nah.
I agree. Of course you have to work for it. You have to work for everything that's worthwhile. Sometimes, it's a great reward. Some people say that it's not worth the effort, but hey, I say that you haven't met the person who will make all of that trouble 'worth it'. But that's just me, so no one please get angry. Well, i think you'll feel it when it's the right person. (or cat, dog, chipmunk, rat, roach, just naming things at random here) Well, I hope that that made sense to everyone:DQuote:

Just curious, of the people who don't believe in soulmates or love, how many are currently in a relationship?
Take care all.
I believe there are many people that you might possibly form a lasting relationship all over the world. It's just a matter of finding that person, and snagging them, so to speak.
I believe in soulmates but i don't think everyone is going to find theres. And i don't think you have to go out looking for them i think fate will do that job for you.
When you look at biology, love seems to be a very superficial thing - some chemicals shift around in the brain and voila - you're emotionally attached to someone (a smidge more complex than that). However, although it makes sense in one aspect, i really do dislike that 'theory' of love - i see it as something spiritual, alot more than trivial. I do believe in true love, but what's getting to me now is that if you meet someone who you just absolutely know is right for you - and, well, things don't work out - where does your path lie then? People who lose their partners to death and then remarry confuse me as well. If i loved someone enough to actually marry them, im not too sure if i could replace that person. Then again, i guess you can't really comment on that unless it happens. I do believe you have to work hard to make love work, but i don't think just any two people could have a flourishing life together by just trying hard. There's some unseen forces at work perhaps :-\
That's it!Quote:
