Soul mate, the great myth...

[Sad_but_happy]

I was contemplating the term soul mate. I don't believe there is such a thing though the WAS will tell you different ONLY DURING THEIR AFFAIR!

Why?

Your soul mate is only a soul mate FOR THE PRESENT DAY!

Cases in point:
1. Today you meet your "soul mate". Life is great, blissful. Two years pass and then three and then four then ten. Your soul mate is now a different person (don't we all change as we age?). So is this person still your soul mate? He/she likes different things, has different interests. Most likely different from your interests.

2. You meet your soul mate and two years later he/she has a change of heart and wants to break up/divorce. Are they still your soul mate if they don't want you?


Yes, there are people that seem to click better than others but clicking is not a soul mate.

The moral of the story... No matter how great the match appears, any successful marriage takes a tremendous amount of effort and work.

You can't rely or put any validation in the concept of a soul mate. And don't believe it when you WAS says that they have, "found their soul mate." They are in a fog!
