I totally agree.I believe that multiple people can be "soul-mates."
It just doesn't make sense that in a world of 6 billion or more people, there's only "one" that we all match up with.

But what's the point behind a soul mate? Someone who is perfectly balanced with your soul???
Why do we need a SOUL MATE?? What's wrong with a husband or a wife, a great partner or a relationship? What's a SOUL MATE?
Absolutely believe in soul mates. Notice the plural? One at a time as life, people, circumstances change. Funny thing is, once you find one but you both move on and away...the thought lingers...WHAT IF??

But isn't it possible that this whole concept of "the one" that has got us all mixed up??? Folks are buying into this concept of that one individual (or individuals at different stages of our lives) who perfects us and completes us that when we realize that this "perfection" and this "completeness" takes work.
Personally, I don't understand 'soul mates'. I think there are many people out there who are good for me and many people out there who I'm good for. But I also think with the right amount of determination, effort and commitment, I could make a relationship work with a LOT of different people - it's just a matter of finding one who brings that level of determination, effort and commitment out of me. And vice versa.
I think that there is more than one person out there for each of us but only certain people that we feel an intense connection with. I have met guys who I liked and they were fine but there was no connection. It is like you have known them before and you often speak without words becuase you are really in tune with that peron. It can be really intense.
But, I know a lot of people don't wait for that connection and look for what would make a good partner and make it work. As I am an intense person I feel I need that connection to be with someone.

...but everyone that you feel an intense connection with isn't cut out for a relationship.
Fantasy. I think believing in "The One" sets up some bad things:
People overlook well qualified mates because of one or two flaws, thinking that means they are not "The One".
People that are in committed relationships leave their current, because they met the next person who they now think is "the one".
