I do. However, I believe we can have more than one throughout life. Lovers do die and we might want to pursue a relationship after this.

I used to think that, but as I age I don't anymore
It would be like saying forever and nothing, I mean nothing lasts forever

Everything for sure happens for a reason...people come in and out of our lives when we need them. Not when we "want" them...painful sometimes but so true!

What it all comes down to is an old saying, a reason, a season or a lifetime
It has nothing to do with fate or soulmates
You can turn it around any way you want or need it to fit

I am a fortunate person. I learned from two people that were indeed, soulmates, my parents, that this is possible. And from a relationship of my own. Now, that doesn't mean that give and take isn't needed, or that it all is smooth all of the time. And we have to want to take this journey and nourish it.

very true. i've always felt that there is more then one person. even if the wrong one comes into your life it happened for a reason

I agree with AT...I believe you can have more than one. It is beautiful when you find a soul mate and it is seeing the glass as half full to know you may have another.

Nope, I don't believe in fate or soulmates. Of course, there are people in the world that a person will be most drawn to as far as interests, chemistry etc, but I don't see that as the result of fate/possessing a soulmate one was "meant" to be with.

I agree with this fully! The person I was with at 18 is NOT suited for me at 38.

I believe in soulmates. I believe that it is worth the time/effort to find yours and keep them. I know, I am a hopeless romantic but I refuse to believe that the great romance of my life was found at 18 and gone (as in no longer together) before I owned up to my true self.

I read this passage all the time and I find it to be reassuring. (I swear, I wish I has written this. It did, however, inspire the piece that I consider to be one of my best written works ever.)

"Some times I feel there is a hole inside of me, an emptiness that at times, seems to burn. I think if you lifted my heart to your ear, you could probably hear the ocean. In the moon tonight, there's a circle around it-a sign of trouble not far behind. I had this dream of being whole-of not going to sleep each night wanting, but still sometimes, when the wind is warm or the crickets sing, I dream of a love that even time will lie down and be still for. I just want someone to love me. I want to be seen. I don't know. Maybe I have had my happiness. I want to believe it but, there is no one. Only that moon."

I believe in soul mates, but I also believe you don't necessarily have to be romantically linked to that person.
