There's actually probably a few someones out there for everyone. Back in the late 19th century, an entire town would be comprised of a single school - a person's social range was about a school district big at most - and life expectancy was about 50. If they worked with that now, imagine the possibilities today!
But you can't just "wait around" for something to happen. You've got to be in a situation where it can; and to some extent, you've got to push a few buttons and MAKE something happen. Love happens best when you're giving it, too; and having fun with it. Even "having a good day" takes the effort of making one happen.
Just remember - if you aren't having fun with it, you're not doing it right. :)

I would like to think so. That "other" may be halfway across the country or across the world. There may be numerous choices for everyone. Some more than others. I feel that exposing yourself to a variety of social situations will eventually lead you to that person.
When someone enters your life don't be in a hurry to get married. One of the worst things that I think a person can do is to get married because:
A. they THINK they should be married,
B. they can't wait to have a big expensive wedding,
C. they are afraid of being alone,
D. they are being pressured by friends and family
...I have seen many marriages fall apart because people got married for these (and other ridiculous) reasons.
I am 42 and single, never been married (and not unattractive or weird as some of you are probably thinking), but I am happy. I am not a committment phobic. I have had 3 long term relationships but discovered that the men I cared about were not the ones I wanted to ALWAYS be with so eventually I ended it. We parted on good terms because we were honest with ourselves. My parents were happily married for 51 years before my Dad passed away so I have had good role models.
I have many very good friends, a great job, and I am now shopping for my own home. If I had been married when everyone else thought I should have, I would be miserable and/or divorced by now. I have friends who were married twice before they realized that they needed to be honest with themselves about love and marriage.
The reason for getting married is to spend the rest of your life with someone, perhaps raise children together (something I think people also need to think clearly about). Are you truly best friends or are you simply in lust? Would you still want to spend the rest of your life with this person if they were suddenly in a hideously disfiguring accident? Would they do the same for you? Are you at the stage in your life where you are completely grown up and have developed the personality you will carry for the rest of your life? Have you discussed your dreams with them? If you want to have one kid and they want to have 6 can you make a compromise?
Please don't depend on someone else to provide you with a lifetime of happiness. It comes from within. If you follow your dreams then others will see that and be drawn to you for being independant and self-sufficient. The right person will come along when you are least expecting it so don't waste you life waiting.
Peace.

Don't give up on love. Mr. Right may not be the finest thing on the earth but he'll make you the happiest woman on the earth. So don't got around lookin for tall and handsome with a washboard chest cause something will come to you.

Yes, I do believe that there is someone out there for everyone. NEVER give up on love. Your Prince will come someday, even if it takes a long time.

I absolutely do not believe there is someone for everyone! I think true love and soul mates are a fantasy.

Oh There Definitely is Someone for Everyone....
I found her once. But she loved me and her pharmacuticals.
I found her again with another mans last name.
I found her again with another mans last name
I found her again with another mans last name
I found her again but she was 16 years younger and still trying to find herself.
I promise they.. are all out there! You may not be ready for them-THEY may not be ready for you......
It seems to be a matter of timing, at least for me!
Keep the Faith!
