So this question has been asked before, but there's more here. Do you believe that two people can be destined, before birth, for each other? And then, in the matter of finding each other, is that predestined or pure-dump luck? Can you have more than one soul-mate, or is it all just an idea we more romantically inclined, believe so as not to feel alone?

"A soulmate is someone who has locks that fit our keys, and keys to fit our locks. When we feel safe enough to open the locks, our truest selves step out and we can be completely and honestly who we are; we can be loved for who we are and not for who we're pretending to be. Each unveils the best part of the other. No matter what else goes wrong around us, with that one person we're safe in our own paradise. Our soulmate is someone who shares our deepest longings, our sense of direction. When we're two balloons, and together our direction is up, chances are we've found the right person. Our soulmate is the one who makes life come to life."

Yes, I believe we each have a soul mate! I married mine! As far as finding them, I believe it is destined for one of the two to find the other one, yet both will know when they meet. I believe we each have just 1 soul mate, yet we can get confused and think we found ours only to figure out later that it was not the right one, that time. My hubby had a choice to help my brother or to go to New Orleans for Mardi Gras over 9 years ago, he could not shake the feeling to help my brother. So that is the choice he made, In which him and I met. So yeah meeting is destined. It is a romantically inclined idea in a sense, yet it is still true none the less. As far as not feeling alone, just the thought of finding ones soul mate is not going to fill a void. One can still feel alone until they actually do find their other half. Then again one can feel alone, even when they're in a crowd.

Yes... and it's not always just one person. The words 'soul mate' always brings about for me the imagery of maybe a prior life or an after life where the souls are together but not one? Does that mean that the souls are physically connected together, or that they share a universe together where no one else is around? Maybe they have the same energy pattern and don't repel one another.
My point is it's all conceptual. It might mean that you are so in tune with each other that you know what each other is really thinking. Or that you love them more than anyone else. Or that they are the only one that understands you. Maybe you choose your soul mate and don't let anyone else close enough to interfere with that bond.
I think that when you find A soul mate... not THE soul mate, you believe the same things in your heart, and walk the same path in life.

YES,Soul mates are two people who share the same intrest and are very similar in charcter. Sometimes it may be in the form of love at first sight. Or a soulmate may be someone you've grown on for many years and may find it hard to be away from that person. Thats where your second soulmate comes into play, but in all actuality theyre your true soulmates because of the instant chemistry. You're just continuing to hold onto your first true love because you cant do any better. You dont have the qualites to KEEP your new soulmate at this time. So dont be so romantically inclined to seek true love. Because home is where the heart, mind, body and SOUL is MATE SENSE!

I totaly beleave in soul mates. There has been people that break up with their true love and marry someone else but for some weird reason they find each other again after years if this world is so big how do u fgure that happens because soul mates are ment to be. So thats why we should always wait for the right one and not force any relationship if its not ment to be just let go, thats why people end up with the wrong person.

No. I would love it if there is a soul mate destined for everyone. But I think that's just an idea perhaps to provide each of us a false sense of security that there is someone for us and we're not gonna be alone in this big big world
Rather, I think people find soul mates in other people, any one who just click in the right way. So soul mates, to me, are simply people who you develop a deep understanding and love with.

I believe in soul mates. I believe in reincarnation and I believe that in past lives we've formed bonds with others that in current and future lives, we seek out those souls again. Soul mate doesn't necessarily mean a romantic love interest that's destined.

I believe that everyone has that perfect match. It's just a matter of finding that person that's the problem. Now, there are certainly others who fill any emotional gaps, but I believe that there is only one soul mate for everyone. Who knows, I could be yours.

Fate brings soul-mates together. Yes, I believe we each have one soul mate in life. For years, I thought mine had probably been killed at a very young age because I never found him. Then one day, I caught sight of this man and BAM!
The rest is history :-)

It's been said that everyone has three loves in their life-- their first love, the one they marry, and the one they were supposed to marry, and only the luckiest of us have all three in one.
I'm not sure I agree with that, but I think no matter who you are, there is someone out there who fits you like a glove, who is perfect for you and who you are perfect for. If you're lucky, there may be more than one. But it's definitely not predestined, and it's very easy to "miss" that person and never even meet.
