I think Richard Bach wrote the book "Bridge Across Forever" (I'm not sure if I got the title right), about finding his soulmate, but by the time I read it, they were already divorced.

Every time you fall in love you believe it's 'true love'. It's just that the next love you have is better & then you realise the last one wasn't 'true'.
Love is love. People evolve, & sometimes the relationship doesn't. That doesn't make the way you felt at the time something less.
At 45, I'm a little cynical, so forgive me; I just don't believe in 'forever', which is what I think you're looking for.
Some people are lucky enough to find it, but far more people settle for what they have and end up really unhappy.
In the old days when 'forever' was a probability, people only lived for 30-odd years. Now we live into our nineties. That potentially equates to 5 or 6 loves!

Yes. "TRUE" love are those that make vows and stick to them because of an abiding love that is much deeper than the surface. It is the kind of love that allows one to forgive or to let go. It puts the needs of the other person first. It considers the consequences all actions and all actions are intended for the benefit of the relationship. True love is not easy and not everywhere it must be cultivated and nurtured.

I think so. I think i found my soul mate and he thinks the same. We thought that about eachother for 2 years, and that 2 years we never said one word to eachother. we heard eachother talk in groups of friends and co workers but that was it. we didn't even know there was an attraction from the other untill all the sudden we just kissed he was married at the time, left her for me that puts a red flag on the marrige write away i think but it cant always be helped. been together ever since does that mean that we will be together forever.....no.....but there will always be a connection between us..

I hope so, but it comes at a price: growth, responsibility, commitment, perseverance ...
It isn't a bad deal in exchange for the rewards.

It's true love if you spend a lifetime together.

yes.. however because both partners are imperfect, it takes a lot to make it work.
