This past weekend I was visiting a good friend and his girlfriend down in Florida. During one of our late evenings of drinking, we got into a heavy discussion about relationships. They were talking about some problems they've been having and I was trying to give them advice to the best of my drunken ability. Thought I was doing a pretty good job.
Anyhow, at some point the discussion turned to 'soul mates' and that's when it heated up. I told her I really don't believe in that. That there are thousands of people that could be an excellent match as a partner. I asked if my friend was her 'soul mate' to which she said no. So my point became...
Why would you even consider marrying him then? If you were to meet your 'soul mate' would you then leave your husband? (yes, she would) How does one really ever truly know if the person that they believe is their soulmate is really their soulmate? Who's to say that at any given moment another 'soul mate' might come along and change the situation. How can you ever really be happy if your 'soul mate' may be out there somewhere just waiting to be found?
