Could a connection between to people that have never met be considered as something "real"?

Question

I have had people tell me that it is not possible for it to be even close to "real" if your eyes have not met and no words were spoken directly to eachother. How can they say that and mean it? I can see my neighbor, I can shake her hand, and we can talk up a storm but I don't feel a strong connection with this person... so is that supposed to be more "real"? Because this person is standing in front of me?

He seems to know me better than I know myself. His face is so familiar...as if we had met before. When I saw his face I looked, then I had to look again...then I went back and looked again! Studying every outline of his face trying to figure out the connection......

In my opinion, I am connected to this person on a "soul" level, which to me is more real then any stranger standing in front of me.

I really don't think baby should be answering philosphy questions.

For those of you who can't tell a typo when you see it, I meant "two" not "to". BTW, I am 38

This is NOT a love connection. lol. And yes I do believe in soul-mates and soul-friends and people who just come into our lives for a season but then are gone... that does not mean we were not "meant" to meet. It only means they taught me what I was suppose to learn from them and/or visa versa and it was time to move on... THAT may very well be, why this person has come into my life..

Flygal is pretty fly! She's come closer than anyone else so far. Peter seems to "get it" as well, though I don't understand why he thinks the soul and the spirit are two different things..

Answer 1

Depends actually on how you connect to each other even if you hadn't meet as yet. I believe that when two people has mind connection, could talk anything and enjoy each others company even thru chatting by PC or phone then I think I considered it real. Sometimes even if we meet the person and talk to them or even went out dating with them, but the level of openness wasn't there and you could sense that there's no presence of sincerity then I say it wasn't real in the first place. Relationship varies in depth and seeing the person in actual or in person does not mean real to me. Whats real for me is meeting of minds, same level of intelligence, sincerity and openness.

Answer 2

I've been very happily married for 5 and a half years now to someone everybody warned me was probably an axe murderer. (And all his friends gave him the same warning about me.) But we talked every day for 8 months before meeting. When we finally did meet, I took a 6'3" friend with me to the airport to check him out, just in case everybody was right. Also, before I met him, I talked with his sister, his mother, his daughter, and one of his co-workers. There's also the fact that we were both well over 21 when we met.

Whether you're over 18 or not, if you meet this person, you should have a friend with you and someone should know exactly where you're supposed to be all the time until you get back home. If you're under 18, under no circumstances should you meet this guy without your parents' knowledge. If and when you do meet, do so in a public place. Some of the caution people are exhibiting is paranoia, but there really are some vicious, deceitful people out there (though thankfully not all of them are that way).

Answer 3

Do soulmates exist?

I have met couple who swear they do.

Is this one of them?

Could be.

How will you know?

Well, it is not good you are asking us. True soul mates never doubt their love for one another and yet you are questioning us like you are crazy. Maybe you are. You haven't met us and you are asking us for advice. That sounds to trusting. You don't know anything about this guy accept what he looks like so honesty is an issue. All you seem to have here is a strong attraction. So be it.

Is this real?

It seems to be, but; a real what is the question. Is it a relationship, a friendship, a love affair, or something of a kinship?
You haven't learned enough about this man to say. Your sense of caring will bring you together. Your sense of honesty will tell you if things seem true between you. And your sense of trust will alert you to possible detractions.

What is the soul level?

It is that in each of us by virtue of which we are declare, good or bad, wise or foolish, smart or dumb.

Does your connection seem good, wise, and smart, or have you leaped to a conclusion here? Ask yourself. Search your feelings then proceed.

This is your opportunity. Hopefully it is not a bad one. Be cautious, and; do what you think is best.

Some one said talk to your family. I don't know your family, but if you do, keep it brief and ask tem to meet him. Let them tell you what they think and go from there. You don't want to sway their response one way or another. If you trust them they will help you out. If you don't then that is another problem you have to consider.

In the end, it will come down to what you do next. Try not to do it alone. That leaves gaps in your identity.

Good Luck.

Answer 4

I had this question about 2 years ago in my head. My little sister Sweety had met a guy from Australia in about August of 2004 and she and he chatted back and forth. He wanted to come over here to meet her and our family but she said that instead she wanted to go over there. Well, me being the neurotic, paranoid and very untrusting older sister I told her that she'd better be careful that people lure others overseas and prostitute them or kill them, etc. She said to me but you should just read the things he's told me and I countered with yeah, and Con-artists can do the exact same thing...well, thank God that she and he were right, his family was having grave doubts about Sweety and us before they met as well. But even without my help, my sister obtained her Visa (passport) and went over there, he paid her way (which is why his family had had doubts). They met, fell in love, and are now married as of July 9th 2005 and then again here in the states on December 30th, 2005! God Bless you guys! VIVA EL AMOR!

Answer 5

Soul level, well, I think that's a bit extreme, but a spiritual connection, I do believe that it is possible.

Answer 6

It sounds like you're either obsessed with someone you haven't met or are being Conditioned by an online pedophile.

No. You never know someone until you do meet them.

If you are underage, you should have your parents meet them before you're alone with them.

Answer 7

Few have described it better.............
