Do you ladies beileve in soul mates................. (125)
No I don't and NEVER use the cliched term of "soul mates". I beleive two people can have much in common with the same beliefs and convictions which makes for a great match.

Depends on how you define it.
Rationally, it really comes down to how deeply two people can relate, which is largely a function of common values, temperaments, tastes, etc. Sometimes "soul mate" is merely used to denote someone with whom one has a great deal in common.
Sometimes - perhaps more occasionally - it is used to mean a special, unique, non-duplicable-with-anyone-else kind of bond. There's something very comforting about believing one has found the "one-and-only" in that sense. It's not pleasant to imagine that someone is lurking out there who would make a better mate to your lover, so "soul mate" can be used almost defensively against that possibility. Or in cases where one's relationships have failed, it might be comforting to believe that one's singular great love is waiting out there somewhere.
This latter sense of "soul mate" strikes me as improbable and based more on wishful thinking than reality.
That said, of course I want to believe that such a thing exists and that I've found it.

I don't think there is such a thing. I believe 2 people can complement one another is their lives, but soul mates? Not so sure there it isn't just a coined term that is well over used.

Maybe. I was 100% sure I had my soulmate, and now we're not together. And that made me give up faith on soulmates.

My point exactly! If you were "soul mates" then why are you not together?

auggie2727: Hi there everyone>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Well i'm asking to see who else out there has ever experience something really close with there love one... If you want to write a comment about this question feel free to do so..................
I believe there are many different types of Soul Mates.
Have you ever met someone that you knew inside that you have known them before and yet you just met?
For me that is what I call soul recognition. Not that I have met them in this life, however I know in my heart that I have met them before. I have had that many times in my life and it has been with friends and lovers both. I believe people come in to my life when the time is right and it is suppose to happen. I also believe in reincarnation and this is why we have soul recognition. Some of the souls (people) I meet are a "mate" in some form and some of them are not.

i can kind of relate- there was an ex of mine- we could fight like cat and dog, but always made up( except for once obviously) but i believe a lot of that was time pressure- we worked completely different shifts, but when we were together, it was bliss. trying to get time together though was hard, and i believe led to too much pressure to enjoy that time. maybe that meant we weren't truly meant to be together, but i just know that on both sides, being together was special. i worked nights, and used to count the minutes/hours till i was at home with him- even if he would be asleep when i got there, and would have to touch him, even though he didn't know it.
since then- i am happy to know he is married with kids, and maybe we would never have worked out, and have no regrets- but i still believe there was a connection there- like i have not had since- though i have high hopes for my current relationship=
so maybe another question should be.. is there only one soul mate for me?- at this point, at this point i don't think so

druidess6308: I believe in soul groups and soul mates for this reason. However, I believe we can have more than one soul mate...and in this life that mate to your soul might be your best friend only instead.
I believe firmly that my late husband and I are true soul mates. I have confirmation from many venues that we were together before, and he has already stated we will be again next time, as well as that I'll see him on the other side. (Through a medium, btw, for the statement.)
Yes, I feel it when he touches me and kisses me. He's still nearby for now whenever I'm thinking of him, or down and feeling lonely.
This doesn't mean that there isn't another soul mate, or member of my soul group, that could come in and be a very significant other in my life. I think "soul love" is a bit different than human love, and thereby the reason I stated your closest friends could also be soul mates.

hmmm- have been keeping quiet here for a few days-- have met some before that i had thought was a soul mate- but have since met one who i believe ticked all the boxes-- who knows??- at the start it is always 'loves young dream'- i think i have found more than that- and couldn't give a monkeys if i have free mobile and broadband!! lol as long as i have him - i am a true believer in love- idon't think he likes me being here- as as non cs member, i know him well enough to know that he is 'big' enough to allow me to be here if i want to be,as long as i don't embarass either of us- but it makes me think-?? much as i have enjoyed being here online as a single person- and makes me realise there are many totally normal people looking for a 'normal' other. not all those online lookinhg for a relationshgip are nutters and complete 'eejits'= i am sure there are many wierd and wonderful people online, but there are mnany like me, online hoping to meet a few normal people!!

I just cannot, cannot, find the words to answer this question.
I have felt closeness, intimacy, love, with a partner, I have shared my mind, body, soul and spirit with him.
So, I suppose that one, has been so much more than just a soul mate.
