i always dreamed as a little girl that i would travel abroad and meet some exotic, tall, dark handsome man who would just lean down from his charging steed and completely sweep me off my feet... whether we spoke the same language or not...
we ladies do love to get caught up in the fairy tale, don't we? :)
well my fairy tale came true... although not exactly how i had planned.
my dream man and i have been best friends for years... he's short, fair, completely average in every way, and has never been on a horse, let alone a charging steed. he's the one that's always been there for me, and i for him. we have enough in common to keep us together, and are different enough to keep us interested.
i must say, i was so caught up in the clouds and castles of my fairy tale to see the down-to-earth man i'm about to marry... he's the love of my life, and he was right there under my nose all along... and all my friends saw it long before i did ;)

Does your soulmate always have to be the one you marry? I love my fiance with all of my heart and would not want to marry anyone else in the world. However, I don't necessarily feel that he is my soulmate. I did feel that my ex boyfriend is my soulmate. Our personalities complimented each other so much and everything was so calm and on key. However, after three years it turned out that we weren't suppose to be. So sometimes I believe that a person can be your soulmate, as a friend, and not as a couple. I also believe that we may have more than one soulmate. I know that doesn't make sense. But I think that over the years we change and hence so does our soulmates.

Well, a soulmate isn't necessarily a romantic partner. It can be anyone (young, old, male, female) that we feel a very deep and strong connection to, right away. We may meet many, one, or none in a lifetime.
Someone who is our soulmate could possibly also be romantic partner material, but often they are not. However, like the word "love" the word "soulmate" is often misused to refer to someone we're in love with or think is our "ideal mate" (i.e,. "the one")
There are MANY potentially fabulous partners out there for everyone who desires one...sometimes it takes a while for our paths to cross, and sometimes we reject them not realizing who they are. And sometimes still, we meet them, have a relationship, and when that has run its course we part ways...there's no guarantee that anything will last 'forever' nor does it need to in order to be an important and positive significant event in our lives.
I hope to have a romantic partner again in my life, as I enjoy the sharing and affection and closeness that such relationships bring...and if I meet a soulmate or few along the way, that would be groovy too.
No fairytale required...reality can be much more fun. ☺

Honey, finding your soulmate and marrying him is not a fairytale.
It may seem that way because of the shortage of good men but believe me he's out there somewhere. It's just finding him that is the battle.
I met and married my soulmate. When we first met, he wasn't appealing to me at all. In fact, he was the total opposite of the man I thought I needed in my life. But he pursued me and when I finally gave in, I felt in my heart, that this would be the man that I would spend the rest of my life with. After many many years of life, love, marriage and family I am deeply blessed to have found him or vice versa. Are actual life together of ups and downs has produced the fairytale that people think does not exist.

I don't believe in soulmates. I think relationships take a lot of work and the reason there is much divorce is people have this fairytale view of what they think a marriage should be and when they come to the first bump in the road they spilt up instead of working to solve the problem.

fairytales can come true, you just have to survive the nightmares that come before it.I believe in finding my soulmate, I believe I already have. Soulmate, as i've come to realize is not just something that suddenly pops out into existence. I used to think that one day I will see a guy who will perfectly know me instantly and we get along instantly, and he would be my soulmate.but it's not like that. if you keep believing that way, your nightmares will never end!

Soulmates come with patience. Everyone has one, but if you rush into finding just the right one, you are probably moving faster than God intended for you to. If you find your soulmate and don't pray about it, you might end up fighting your soulmate for the rest of your life because you moved faster than God told you to.

No fairytail. I found mine and I have a story behind it. I dated this guy about 14 years ago when he was 18 and I was 20, we dated for like 3 months well he totaled my car one night and I got so angry I left him and never spoke with him again. Well 10 years after that happened I was woriking in a bar as a cocktail waitress and seen him for the first time since then. We talked and exchanged numbers, and we feel in love all over again and we have been together for 4 years now. So I figure yes he is my soul mate or I would have never ran into him again!!!!!

I met my soulmate when I was in 6th grade. Her name was Brittany and she was my best friend-- I don't think that a soulmate has to be a romantic partner. A soulmate is really just a person that you feel a very deep, strong, connection to. A "kindred spirit".

After 2 bad marriages I have found my soulmate.
What I've learned is you have to be a whole person before you can see your soulmate. No one can make you whole. You have to find a whole person to find a whole person. I am happier than I have ever been in my life.
