Do soulmates exist? Is there one person out there that you’re meant to be with? Or can you make a relationship work with anyone, as long as you put enough effort into it?
With over 7.8 billion people in the world, you’re bound to be soulmates with at least one person, right? I don’t have any tangible evidence, but my belief is that…
Everyone has a few soulmates.
Whether you come into contact with them or not is a different story. It depends on your life path. If you’ve somehow gotten way off track, you may still meet people that are very compatible with you, but they may not be your soulmates.
How do you know if you’ve come into contact with a soulmate?
In my opinion, you just know. You can’t explain it.
There’s a feeling deep inside you that this person’s soul is somehow connected to yours.
You completely understand each other and appreciate each other’s imperfections.
If this person has a trait that you normally can’t stand, it probably won’t bother you.
You feel an electric pull towards soulmates, as if you must be near them at all times. You may get an actual ache in your heart when you’re not near them.
There’s a certain intensity that surrounds you both, like an electric current, and you could experience a sense of deja vu, as if you’ve met before.
This HuffPost article describes nine signs you’ve found your soulmate. There are many other articles online that discuss it as well.
Although soulmates are most often thought to be romantic in nature, they don’t have to be. It’s possible to have a really close friend that’s a soulmate.
How do you know if soulmates exist in your life?
As I mentioned, my belief is that everyone has a few soulmates. You’re lucky if you meet one of them, but it’s possible to have a few soulmates in your life.
If you happen to meet a soulmate who is already in a romantic relationship or not interested in being intimate with you, don’t think of it as a wasted opportunity. You were destined to meet each other, so figure out what you can take away from the experience.
Just because you’re soulmates, it doesn’t mean you have to end up together.
It’s possible to lock eyes with someone across a room and feel a sudden energy between you. Maybe that’s your soulmate, but it could also just be great chemistry.
Feeling immediately attracted to someone is more likely related to chemistry.
Seeing beyond the physical attributes is what a soulmate would do.
Do you ever see a couple together and wonder why they’re together? Perhaps you think one of them is much more attractive than the other. Or they seem mismatched in every way. Well maybe they’re soulmates! They find each other beautiful and perfect, so they don’t care if everyone judges them.
In this example, the phrase “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” is completely accurate. It doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks because they’re happy together.
A soulmate will appear in your life when the time is right.
If you spend your life searching for your soulmate, there’s a good chance you’ll never find the right person.
You can’t force it or rush it.
If you’re open to the possibility of meeting a soulmate, it’ll happen.
Don’t be disappointed if you meet a soulmate but can’t be together. There was a reason you met, so enjoy the relationship while it lasts.
Maybe your paths will cross again in a few years or in another lifetime. Or perhaps this person was meant to push you along your journey, to help lead you to the person you ARE meant to be with forever.
If you are content with settling for someone who’s not your soulmate, that’s your choice.
However, soulmates exist if you believe in them.
