I do believe that's true to a degree, because that person will understand you better than anyone else. It doesn't, however, mean that you cannot love, marry, and be happy with someone else. It's not that your soul mate is the only person for you, it's just the absolute very best possible. It may not be logical for the two of you to be together (differing sexual orientations perhaps), and you may never meet at all, and that's fine because, again, it's not a case of "this or nothing".

I believe in reincarnation, and I feel that your soul mate is someone that you have shared strong emotions and situations with, at some point, so the two of you have grown closer than two people could become in only one lifetime. But just because there's this hypothetical, mythical person out there who is perfect for you doesn't mean that this person you love who is 10 feet away is in any way "wrong" for you...

I am in my 30s, and this is something that never crossed my mind when I was younger, but I have come to believe in recent years after a lot of personal soul searching and after getting to know this eerily similar person. I don't believe we will grow out of anything, since we've been close (as good as married, really, although we aren't) for about a decade now.

Aahhhh, don't mind me, I think that's a very healthy way to look at it. The "would do anything/give up anything for this person thing" touched me off a bit, because denying yourself something you truly are or want to do, even if it's for somebody you love, isn't going to make you happy in the long run. But then, if they really love you back, they wouldn't want you do that anyway.

Aaahh, okay. A decade's definitely crossed the threshold, I think. You never know what the future will hold, but at this point I'm sure you can be pretty certain. I think I understand.

Now that you mention it, that was probably poor wording on my part. It does somewhat smack of melodramatic teenage "I'd do anything for you", doesn't it? My apologies. I'm glad I finally made some sense. :P
