Is there such a thing as a soulmate?
I've been through several relationships including a marriage and I hadn't found someone who felt as a soulmate until my ex. Yes. She's my ex now. Why our relationship ended isn't important. All I'm saying is that SHE is the only one who felt as a soulmate. You know, someone I connected with in a very profound way. Do you thinkn there is such a thing a soulmate? AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, could there be more than one out there for any of us?
Thank you for your responses so far.....
Here's what I believe. Even though we BOTH believed we were soulmates, we BOTH realized that at this point, things weren't working out. The details are actually non-important.
However, I do believe there is another soulmate out there for me and for her as well. I'm not depressed if that's what you think. I'm also not getting back with her ONLY because she might be my soulmate AND BECAUSE OF THE POSSIBILITY I MAY NOT FIND ANOTHER ONE. I'm about happiness first, then soulmate. Yes, we had a lot in common and we truly connected, but it wasn't complete happiness due to some actions. Now, you may think... Well, then she wasn't your soulmate. Well, that's really hard to decide since you can't really feel what I feel.
So, thanks again for your responsed and keep them coming!!!

Such thing as a soulmate? In short, nope. "Soulmates" r illusions!! What people r experiencing is that they have shared comminalities of personal likes & life experiences. If you're a horse lover and happen to meet someone w/ the same likes, then it can appear that u have met the guy/gal of your dreams. If they happen to like even more of the things u like, then it feels like a super-dooper, heaven-made match (what bliss - sigh). It was pure chance that they met up in the 1st place.
Common bonds between partners make for a good relationship, I guess. Surely an atheist wouldn't partner well w/ a devout christian, would they?
An "ex" is also someone whom a person has shared many experiences with. Therefore, you may still feel "connected" to this person.
Of course, there are LOTS of potential "soulmates" for people out there because lots of people share at least a few things in common w/ others.
The idea of a soulmate makes us feel safe. If you've felt more connected to the "ex", then go back. Feels safe there, doesn't it?

I think that if you have found a woman you see as a soulmate and it didnt work out she wasnt your soulmate! Perhaps you arent sure what your looking for, Or you havnt been looking in the right places. There is a soulmate for everyone in this world and yours will love you for every part of you, Your flaws, And the best things about you (And no not just your bank account).
When you find that special woman when your apart you will miss her even if its just for five seconds, When your together you will not want the time apart to ever come!
There is a soulmate for everyone and, When you find your soulmate you will not question the binding bond between you two.
Good luck.

Definitely can be more than one soulmate. I have met my 'soulmate' but I realise that this isn'y 'fate' and he isn't the only person out there for me. It's romantic to think so..but..not reality. It's just chance that you happen to meet someone that you connect so deeply too. Don't analyse it, just be thankful that you have found one of your soulmates in the past and pray that by 'chance' you meet another. Also, I think that your soulmate at one stage of your life isn't necessarily your soulmate at another time. People and lives change. So it's a matter if right timing, and finding the right person - good luck!

Yes, there is such a thing. No, unfortunately not everyone finds his/her soulmate - they settle for less, they get discouraged and give up - a variety of things may happen. More than one? If you find the first and outlive her, maybe there will be a second. Not two at the same time. Good luck!

I have a hard time believing the whole soulmate, and one-and-only someone type of idea. I feel that there are too many people out there to truly decide that there is only one. And if there is only one person, can we not love others because they aren't "the One?" I do think that there is a limited amount of people per person that everyone could spend a majority of their life and raise a family with, but I don't think it should be "destined" to one person, it's too closed minded to me.

Watch the Clerks 2, great take on soul mates... and lord of the rings trilogy but thats besides the point the point is that;
There maybe one for you but it probably won't be the one you settle down with. There are trillions, billions and millions of people in the world there is more than likely someone better than the one you meet just keep in mind the asspect you represent, but on the other hand your true soul mate you may never find and end up settling with someone else. It's a sad fact to face but the god aful truth.

yes there is a soulmate and you may find yours very late in life like most people if you feel like she is the one then maybe one day she will see that too but you really can never tell its just destiny maybe had being with her will make you somehow find your real soulmate you neva kno

Yes, I think there is a thing such as soul mate. There is someone out there for everybody. I'm not just talking about matches for people out of the ordinary. I'm talking about somebody who completes a person entirely.

People have them. One should be enough for a soulmate. That is a close relationship between two people.
