Soulmates . . .
This topic was created in the Scorpio forum by P-Angel on Monday, November 20, 2006 and has 8 replies.
Have you ever met a new person and you knew instantly that the two of you would be great friends? There was just this connection, the moment you shook hands and were introduced. You don't know why you two were drawn . . you just were and now you have a good friend, for life.
Have you ever just known something, your gut instincts talked to you and the instinct was correct . . it knew?
Have you ever had deja-vu . . your intuition knows things beyond what our conscious mind can even begin to comprehend.
Our souls just know things and it drives us towards people, vocations, items, situations . . sometimes, it's so powerful within us that it gives us waking visions. And that's just "ONE" soul, our own.
So, wouldn't it be logical to believe that if there were "TWO" souls, you and your soulmate, with all this power . . that they would be drawn together and nothing in this physical world would be able to stop it?
Wouldn't a force that strong be like magnets, and these two souls wouldn't have a choice, except subconsiously move in this world toward each other?

What, DB? I'm not sure what you are trying to convey, as it relates to what I've said.
For, as you say, if this premise is true, then doesn't that answer your question of why there are so many unhappy relationships?
You've lost me because your response follows what I've said, yet, it's worded to sound like you are trying to say the opposite.
Can you elaborate on what you mean?

Yes it is true P-Angel. It does exist. It is so true - the instant recognition, the sudden pull etc. etc. though you are from different cultures or have a huge age gap or are not that goodlooking. it is the inner you that matters. But outwardly also you should be attractive "to eachother"
Oh, ok, thanks.
So, if there aren't soulmates, or at least, the "One" soulmate who is your ultimate life partner . . then perhaps if we fully believed and knew this . . our relationships would be happier because we aren't putting such a big emphasis on the whole, "love me forever" thing.
If men think to love a woman, means "forever", then they want to run as fast as they can to have to even think about "one" woman for the rest of their lives. Maybe they'd stick around for a while and women would be happier.
I don't know, just a thought.

It's becoming apparant to me that most people don't believe in just "one" soulmate, rather, many. And, if we put better effort into communicating and trusting . . we might just get lucky and fall in love with one of them.
"Well, if there are soulmates out there, you shouldn't have to worry much about finding them...The two souls would be finding each other totally unaware that they are doing it..."
Absolutely agree with that. That was what I was trying to say with the original post. If the friends and people we are close to in our lives, have come to us because we are soulmates . . then, it would seem logical that IF there was a "one" twin flame who would complete us as human beings . . we would all be together already and living happliy ever after.

I'm not even sure "love" itself exists . . the way most people interpret it. And, yes, because I'm Pisces . . any, and all emotions . . are important.
What's really bothering me about "love", and "soulmate" is that too much emphasis it put on it, and so blinds us from, well, like you said, we stop working with each other to develop a better relationship. We take for granted that the other person SHOULD just accept without any conditions.

wow...after reading this thread, i feel i have to add my 2 cents for whatever it's worth.
first off, soul mates are being looked at as if they are meant to be the one and only and that falling in "love" with one's soul mate is a perfect match, not always so. Also noticed that no one addressed the fact that we can have many soul mates, and that they don't have to be the opposite sex. Sometimes, "soul mates" are those we have known in a former life...and in that life we may have been the opposite sex ourself.
Sadly, "soul mate" has become a catchall phrase for many people when trying to explain a sudden attraction to a member of the opposite sex and the resulting physical responses that are felt. That is not "love"...that the endorphins firing off and "turning us on" to that other person. Great for initiating a coupling...but possibly not so great in the long run, 'cause when the deed is done, it's done, and there is not enough to hold the relationship together on other levels for the long haul..and because of this, i think that is why there are a lot of unhappy people out there that mistakenly believe they are with their "soul mates".
On the other hand, we all do have "someone" special out there that is trying to reconnect with us, and it happens when it happens, that soul/spirit will be drawn to it's particular match, despite what one looks like or how old they are, or who they are (as was previously mentioned)...and it's in the true spirit of love...a love that doesn't have to be physical, but one that is much more completing, fulfilling, and understanding...that's when the heart opens up and we realize what love really is...and that we have been "found".
