I never believed in soulmates until I found mine this past year. Was like we'd known each other since childhood. It's my best friend. She and I are almost like twin sisters. We are from different countries yet our lives have been so similar and our thoughts and our ways of doing things even our professions. It's awesome to have this kind of connection to some that are just as special to you as you are to them. Eve said it just right, she hit the nail on the head.

I believe that there isn't one one soulmate for each person, because Honey, What is the chance that you will both be born in the same era, at the same location and speaking the same language AND ever meeting? With my usual luck, if there was only just one soulmate born for everyone, I'd have been born in Canada and he'd have been born in Singapore. I love the romantic notion of a soulmate, but realistically I just have to think that there has to be more than one possible person for each person out there. And I think that much of the groundwork is described in AskEve's answer. A lot of it has to do with how much you connect in the first place. Even more has to do with how much you yourself put into the relationship, how you treat them AND, eventually, how much you are willing to make compromises in your own life in order for both of your lives to fit together as a whole. Good Luck Out There! Hope you find each other!

I am a true believer in the idea of soulmates. I know in my heart that there is one person out there for everyone and finding that person is half the fun. But when you find him/her you will know. You will be able to commuicate so well where you dont even need to be in the same room to know something you just know.

ENJOY life and your SOUL MATE

I totally agree with what AskEve says. I once had a soul mate and that's exactly the way it was with us. It was like dejavu everyday almost. I couldn't believe the way we finished each others sentences, laid in bed talking for hours, go on 3 hour road trips never turning the radio on because we had so much to say to each other all the time, and we had fun no matter what we did or didn't do together. It was GREAT! I hope we have more than one soulmate in our lives because I want that again. *Le sigh*

I believe a soul mate is someone you do not have to look for, it just happens. All of a sudden you realize that you have everything in common with one person, You share the same likes and dislikes, most of the same morals, you seem to agree on everything without trying. You don't have to put on an act or try to impress your soulmate, the things you say naturally will impress them because they think much alike and vice versa. I think a soulmate is a love that starts from respect of eachother and strong agreement, then suddenly knowing how they feel just by glancing into their eyes, they can predict how you would feel about something (before they talk to you about it) and they can tell if you are hiding how you feel, they can tell if you like something and you can tell if they like or agree with something, you can tell their dislikes just by making eye contact.Did you ever see a married couple make eye contact across the table and both stand up at the same time and announce it's time to leave, they're getting tired and the kids have school in the morning? How did they know what eachother was thinking? They are soulmates, and they agree on things, and are able to know what (for the most part) the other person is thinking by making eye contact.Soulmates know eachother inside and out and agree with eachoter and respect eachother's feelings. Real soulmates take the time to ask the other person what their opinion is on something before making big choices or commitments because they are equal to eachother and want to be fair to the other person. That's my opinion on soulmates.I think when your heart skips a beat and strong attraction to the point where you can't think properly is actually lust. But you can be in lust with your soulmate. But lust is blinding and soulmates can see clearly, that's the difference. for example: In love with a cheater, you are so in lust with him that you would go through anything to believe he is not a cheater, therefore you would be blind. another example: 3 men driving along and the first guy asks if they want to go looking for pretty women, the second guy might agree but guy #3 sais "Nah, I really don't think my girlfriend would like that very much" - he obviously respects his girlfriend and he knows how she would feel about the situation and is trying to be fair to her.I hope this makes sense, You just don't have to change yourself for your soulmate and your soulmate doesn't have to change either........ They just know!!! That's all I can say!

I cannot tell you here and now who your soul mate might be but what I can do is show you what characteristics they will have so that you will be able to recognise them and look for them yourself.
Your soul mate is a person with whom from the outset, you have a special connection. He or she is someone to whom you are profoundly drawn. On first meeting your soul mate you will find that you instantly click, that there is a rapport. You feel that no one else in the room matters. They are someone with whom you have chemistry and you spark off one another, you are so intrigued by them that you find yourself listening more than you want to talk.
Your soul mate will be someone with whom you immediately feel comfortable. When you first meet, your heart may skip a beat at the mere mention of their name, your stomach may churn when you bump into them but they should also, in time, be someone with whom you feel at one. With this person you should feel safe and secure. They are not a person who would undermine you. They are not someone in whose company you feel threatened or small and they will love, respect and care for you.
Your soul mate is not someone who would ever want you to change. They think the world of you as you are. They are someone with whom you can share your innermost thoughts and worries, a person with whom you should be able to share anything, they are your friend and your confidante and your relationship with them should be honest. You should not be afraid of telling them anything because they love you as you are! They will never judge you and whatever you do their opinion of you will not change.
You are always "yourself" when you are together. You never try to be anything more or someone different because you don't need to. You don't have to impress them to win them over and you never have to play games to make them like you. You may come from different backgrounds, different countries, be twenty years apart, none of that has any bearing on whether you are perfectly matched. You see more in each other than the naked eye could ever see. You see into each other's souls which is why you have this deep, strong link.
There is an unspoken language between you and the spiritual connection between you both is so deep that you seem to be able to communicate without even speaking to each other. You are happy to lie in silence together. You feel sometimes that there is no need to talk because you feel that you know what they are thinking anyway. You feel so close to them that sometimes you think you could almost read their mind. You know when they are worried, in pain, or sad just by looking at them. It is as though there exists some kind of telepathy between you. You will often think the same things at the same times. You are able to finish each others sentences on occasions.
When you meet this special person you WILL know. It will be instinctive and it will be different from any feeling that you have ever had for anyone in the past.
~Eve~
