I think it is both. When I met my ex husband, I knew that something was wrong, but I was young, stupid, and naive. I thought that I had found the love of my life. NOT. He never loved, respected, and cherished me like a man should with a woman.
Since I have been divorced, I found my true love, my soul mate. We are alike in soooooooooooo many ways and love each other sooooooooooo deeply that it hardly seems possible that it's real. We fit together like a glove does a hand, literally and figuratively. He loves, respects, and cherishes me with his heart, soul, words, and actions. He has put me on a pedestal, like I have him, and he treats me like a God, like I do him.
I think that it is instinctive, believed, and a matter of loving, respecing, and cherishing the other person at all times. It is like you have known and loved this person all your life, even though you haven't.

People mix up what soulmates really are. They are our celestial/angel friends. This means our soul/spirit is friends with another soul/spirit. A soul mate is not your partner, boyfriend, girlfriend. Its a term to describe the bond but is inappropriatly missused. Your soul mate can be a plant, animal, member of your family, anyone or anything. Finding your soul mate on earth simply means that your astral/celestial friend is in another living form and that you have found each other. When soul mates do find each other, it usually a tragic thing, meaning that it is vertually impossible for you two (you have many many soulmates but it's rare to find more than a few in your current lifetime) to have a wedded type relationship. It is limited to mainly a friendship type thing as many soulmates can be your pet, your grandparent, your nephew, a good freind who you have trouble geeting along with but you know each other from the other realm. The soulmate you think you have as a partner is not your soulmate, these people are your LIFEMATES, thats all. Soulmates have a "feeling"type of comunication (non verbal telepathic) and have a connection metaphysically to one another, and when you reseach each others past you find that you both, all 3, all 4 or whatever, you all have had very very similar occurances and life decisions made (you can see this in animals too only if you know their past). Soulmate is the friend of your spirit and not your frind per say. Lifemates are the ones you can spend a lot of your time with. I hope this can somewhat clear the air!

I believe true love is total committment to a person. I also believe that it is possible to fall out of Love. So it is possible to have true Love but then lose it. Soul Mates on the other hand I believe is someone you have been in true love with, but your not together now, but you still know that that person is the right one for you. It's almost like you know each other so well. Your on the same page with this person. I believe I have had True Love with several people, but I feel certain that there is one person who I'm not with that is my soul mate. We just have an unexplainable connection to one another.

there isn't any way to say what love is, and when you find your soulmate, you'll know it because you can't stop thinking about the other person, not just the physical part if you love the other one's personality, then it's probably true love.
