Soulmates?

"To say that one waits a lifetime for his soulmate to come around is a
paradox. People eventually get sick of waiting, take a chance on
someone, and by the art of commitment become soulmates,
which takes a lifetime to perfect."

What are your thoughts? Do soulmates exist? If they do, how does one know that this person is their soulmate? Do you know in an instant? Is it love at first sight? What makes a person your soulmate? Can there be more than one soulmate? What if you think you are with your soulmate and then things end. Does this mean that this person was never your soulmate or are you still soulmates but in a different way?

I don't think there should be rules to love or any matter of the heart. After reading this quote, I became intrigued about different perspectives. What is a soulmate to you?

Does a soulmate have to always mean someone you are or want to be in a relationship?
Can't a soulmate be a best friend without partnership status?

That is exactly what I was getting at. Can a soulmate be in the form of a friendship? I absolutely think that it is possible Wolfy. This is why it is interesting to read different opinions. Thank you for bringing this point up!
