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.
Relationships can be formed with any person at anytime. But the idea of a soulmate takes it to the next level. Its not something that's found in every relationship, marriage, etc. So if its not felt with the person(people) in the relationship, then maybe that relationship is not on that level.
Nothing wrong with that. Its just not there. I know of all the relationships I've been in.. NONE have been like the present. And I seriously don't believe any subsequent relationships will be like it either (if there are any).
I'm still undecided on this topic, maybe I'm too young... but I would LOVE to hear more from you about your story with the DH, Harrison lol!I can't remember the name of the movie, but it was a Tyler Perry movie with Cicely Tyson and Maya Angelou. Was it Family Reunion?
Anyway.. There was one scene where Cicely Tyson gave her reason for not having ever been interested in remarriage after her husband died.
She stated that she had been "divinely blessed' to have met and married her late husband. Their relationship was an experience that some do not encounter in a lifetime.
That is exactly how I feel about DH. In all the relationships(M/F) I've had/have .. none compare to the relationship I have with him. Its not a goo goo eyed, rose covered glasses thing, its not animalistic passion or physical attraction. Its definitely on another level.
I say all that to say... yes I believe in soul mates. I'm not too sure if there are more molds of him out there. It was really difficult and time consuming to come across him...
I believe there is such a thing as soulmates; just not the fantasy behind it. I have met my soulmate, an ex. It ended badly but we did not become enemies behind it. Like someone else posted, not all soulmates are meant to be your husband or SO. My ex and I had a connection from the start, like I knew him from long time ago; I even had a past life dream about him once. I always felt like we were great friends, a deep love later developed. But sometimes, one doesn't realize they met their soulmate until certain life lessons has past. That is the point of soulmates- they are not happily ever after, they are only meant to guide you through your next phase or lesson in life. If you don't learn the lesson the first time, someone else will come along to teach you until the lesson is learned. A soulmate can even be someone you can't stand or does you wrong but again, it's due to a lesson that needs to be learned for you to grow to a higher level in life. Some people marry their soulmates, which is extremely fortunate. My sister is my "twin soul"- how fortunate that she came back to me as my twin. A twin soul is similar to a soulmate except, everything that other person does, mirrors you, whether it's your mannerisms, thought patterns, finishing each other's sentences, etc, that person is literally, your other half. Your soulmate can be your sister, mother, father,lover or best friend. They are only here for as long as you need them to complete your life lessons. My other soulmate was my mommy- she was here to guide me and teach me to be a good person and a responsible adult. Her life with my father was a lesson on what I should accept and not accept in relationships with men. Her determination to succeed and fight for independence was my lesson as well. Once I've learned my lesson, her job was completed, her reward was her first grandbaby and she went home on January 26, 2004. MY current SO is not my soulmate but my LIFE mate and I am very happy and at peace with him. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of that missing peice which is my ex- lover (soulmate) and hope that all is well and happy with him- I will see him next time around. Sorry if I got all deep on you guys.
Simple question - do you believe in soul mates, "the ONE", "the sun to my moon"???
Or is that 1950's pipe-dream that needs to go??
Harrison, your daughter is too precious! So pretty!
I believe in soul mates
But some people want to block good relationships from their lives, so even if they have a couple of soulmates out there, they won't recognize them.
I truly believe I have found my man soulmate. And I also believe that we can have more than one soulmate. Friends can also be soulmates, and I have a friend like that. We are very very close.

My mother said the same thing. I think that is unfair to the wife, but you can't help who you mesh with."Sure DONT - There is more than just ONE."
Quote from an older friend:
"You find your soulmate across the breakfast table after 10-15-20 years of living with the flawed human that is your wife."
Fantasy...
Or maybe, one of my friends used to claim I was his and if so I need a new soul...

I think there are people that you instantly connect with, be it a friend or a potential lover. However, time and experience has taught me that they were soul mates for that space in time. Also lustful feelings can instantly be misguided as soul mate feelings. Time usually tells this.
