subrosa Posted November 25, 2012 Posted November 25, 2012 (edited) Hello love shack people. I recently started dating a girl I had a small thing with a few months ago. The first time we hung out we connected really well and continued to hang out for a little while. When her ex found out he decided to start a big'ol **** storm. She decided she wanted to be with him because he pretty much manipulated her into it(I know its not only his fault). After about six months of talking occasionally(half of the time arguing about her ditching me) two months ago she sent me a message that she broke up with the guy. I told her I didn't want anything to do with her and that we should move on. My dignity wouldnt allow me to see her. Eventually we talked and we started hanging out again about a week ago and it was like we had never been apart. Still have deep conversations about everything and anything. She explained that being with the other guy was necessary for her to realize how much she loves me. I care about her so much and we connect on such a deep level. I get a feeling like I have known her for eternity. I started to wonder if she is the "one" for me. Only time will tell... curious to know if anybody else believes this. Or believes that soulmates are real. Edited November 25, 2012 by subrosa
CarrieT Posted November 25, 2012 Posted November 25, 2012 I'm approaching 50 and have deeply loved several men. Early in my life, I believed in soulmates. I no longer do, knowing that love ebbs and flows and if one loses "the one" for some reason, it is possible to love as deeply - ida not moreso - again. 1
MrCastle Posted November 25, 2012 Posted November 25, 2012 I love the idea of having one but having never been in love, I can't say that I have any reason to believe such a thing exists. I think the best you can hope for is a compatible mate, not someone who is everything you've ever needed and wanted in every conceivable way. It's nice to think about, but how often have you experienced anything close to that or even seen any of your friends experience it. Never, for me.
Pyro Posted November 25, 2012 Posted November 25, 2012 (edited) Soulmate tends to imply that only 'one' person out there is for you. Hypothetically speaking what if you marry the 'one' and then they die in a car accident? A few years later you may meet someone new and decide to remarry. See what I am saying? I believe that there are many people out there who are the 'one' for you and the person that you meet and end up depends on where you are and how you live. Once you find them be sure to never let them go. I am happy for you OP and I hope that for your sake her ex is ancient history. Edited November 25, 2012 by Pyro 1
amaysngrace Posted November 25, 2012 Posted November 25, 2012 I believe in soulmates. My exBF and I are soulmates. He stopped by today and we both said that neither one of us could remember the last time either one of us had sex but we know it was with each other. He says it was June and I say it was winter.

MrCastle Posted November 26, 2012 Posted November 26, 2012 Who says soulmates aren't exes? Is that in the official soulmate handbook? Yeah. Pretty sure being "mates" is a significant part of being soulmates
ja123 Posted November 26, 2012 Posted November 26, 2012 ida not moreso What does this chatspeak mean, Carrie?
ja123 Posted November 26, 2012 Posted November 26, 2012 Soulmate tends to imply that only 'one' person out there is for you. I agree. I think of it more as having a deep, soulful relationship with someone. 1
amaysngrace Posted November 26, 2012 Posted November 26, 2012 Yeah. Pretty sure being "mates" is a significant part of being soulmates He is my "mate with benefits" then. We're always there for each other and always have been for as long as we've known each other. And it's kind of like we know we always will be. It's complicated.
