How do you define "Soul Mate" .....?

I personally think that there is no such thing as a "soul mate" ... I think that 2 people get together and work extremely hard to make their relationship work ....

But just for kicks .... what do you think a soul mate is and how do you know that in this WHOLE world you have found the ONE true person that is meant for you? ... and if you and your "soul mate" dont last then what does that mean?

FYI: I am EXTREMELY happily married

Update:

YUP!! he is the one who actually came up with that as a definition ... and I agree

    SOUL MATE !!!

    The person whom your soul is connected to.

    Not just your physical being.

    The love that two people can share.

    But your soul can relate to their soul and you feel their needs and feelings and desires. It exist I do belive.

    But, it exist when you are put together by God and he is in control of your life. I am waiting --- he is out there someone - I think I know where he is but, god is still working on him.

    if you don't believe in soul mates then why bother with this question? There is not just one soul mate out there for each person. and in response to you think that 2 people get together and work extremely hard to make their relationship work, this is true, but don't you think being in love with them is important as well??? which ties into a soul mate. You don't find your soul mate, get married and live every second happy in love forever, it takes a lot of work as well. there is a middle between your view and the idea of a soul mate.

    I believe in soul mates because I have met guys who I have worked hard at, but we just couldn't be together. Maybe if they worked hard at it too, we could've been together still, but the thing is your soul mate will want to work hard with you. Does that make sense?

    Like you, I didn't really believe in soul mates before him! (LOL..and I've been married, but not believing in soul mates, I married someone I thought I could "be happy" with... well, that ended badly)...

    Now, I know my soul mate.... You know how your whole life, you sat back dreaming of "the perfect" guy for you... For me it was the one who had just the right sense of humor, intelligence, wit, compassion, romanticism, manliness, knowledge, creativity, etc... who loved me in the way I needed to be loved, who just seemed to inherently know me, my dreams, and what I need from him? The man that I wanted to do ____ with - whether it is traveling, or dancing, going to rock concerts - whatever I dreamed of my guy doing with me - well the soul mate is so interested in me and making me happy that he loves to do those things too, if not for any other reason than to make me smile... He constantly is trying to remind me of how much he cherishes me and loves me... He is who I dreamed of since I was a child... My "prince Charming" if you will... sure, he has faults, as I knew he would... (lol.. though, honest, I haven't found them yet!!! lol) but, he's different than any other relationship I have ever known...

    and the key is that he feels the same about me... we both cherish each other.. and loving one another feels natural... right.. like destiny... :)

    One of two persons compatible with each other in disposition, point of view, or sensitivity.

    A soul mate is a term that talks about two people who are perfectly made for each other and are ideal to spend their entire life together. A soul mate can also refer to couples who are madly in love with each other and can’t stay without each other. Soul mates are also known as lovers who are deeply in love with each other. In a more technical definition; the term soul mates is used for the designation of an individual with another individual with whom he one has a feeling of natural affinity, love, friendship, sexuality and intimacy or in short mutual compatibility. However due to the concept of the twin soul or twin flame, also known be the search for the ultimate soul mate, according to this theory is that every individual has a only half of their soul and the other half is with their soul mate. And for this all the souls are driven to find their other half and join them.

    I think that a "soul mate" is the person that you don;t lose the drive to keep continuing to do the hard work that it takes to make things work.

    Wow 1 Yes and no. I think 2 people can find each other and both love each other very much. But even so one has to work at it every day. One can grow tired of the other one if both people do not work at it. But if No is your answer well this is much harder. One can still make things work if both people work very hard at it. They can still become the love of your life.

    Hope this helps.

    Soul Mate is someone whom you have this wonderful connection to. Someone that you cannot wait to see at the end of the day. Someone who you can smell even though they are not around. Someone that finished your sentence and knows your thoughts. Someone that would die for you.

    My soulmate and I don't have to work hard to make it work. It comes natural. I'm addicted to him and he is addicted to me. We both cannot wait to be with each other after work.
