That makes sense :) lets say in this world you are compatible with a number of people. With some persons you are more compatible with than others, and I suppose there must be that one person with whom you are more compatible than most. That is your soulmate. :) so judging by that...we do have a soulmate, each of us.

Then why do some people die without having one first kiss, never having one girlfriend/boyfriend, and still have their virginity?

Im not sure I understand the question. Do you mean if they died without ever having a gf/bf, first kiss etc it means they didnt have a soulmate? just because they didnt experience any of those things doesnt mean there wasnt that one person for them out there in the world, they just didnt meet them. I dont know if anyone actually ever does.

Is there a soulmate out there that you need to meet, or does the one you meet turn out to be your soulmate?

I reckon you're thinking about it the wrong way around. :)

Coming from a spiritual viewpoint, you actually have a soul group.

I won't go into too many details about soul groups here, but just to say that they are souls that are very similar to you who can meetup in the physical or spiritual realms. They will always know how to find each other and will usually hit it off by lifetime friendship / relationship when they do. Your parents / siblings / other relatives may also be part of your soul group and may be around you for many lifetimes. If you struggle with your relationships as many do on this forum, then it is possible that the rest of your soul group is currently non-physical only.

I wish you would have gone into detail. I found this post fascinating. :D

There are all kinds of people out there, you might find someone that suits your every need in a person, and that person might find the same in you. But they're by no means destined to be together.

People change during their lifetime. Your ''soulmate'' might be complete other person by the time you meet him/him then you'd like him/her to be. If it were meant to be your likes/dislikes would shift with the change of this person.

I personally think the concept of soulmates was created by a few people that got lucky and found a partner they didn't see any flaws. It's mostly a romantic fantasy.

This is impossible. It's a very nice thought, but lets really think about the idea of soulmates. Just one person for you in the bigm wide world? It's statistically improbable that the vast majority of people would ever meet their 'soulmate'. I also feel this cheapens a lot of people's appreciation for a relationship. If it doesn't 'work out', then it's onto the next person. The way that it is portrayed is that you'll meet this statistical anomaly and everything will be perfect, the end. It just doesn't work like that. It's an impractical notion that simply never works when put into practice. There are millions of people that you could truly end up being in love with. It takes effort and constant work to initiate and sustain that kind of relationship. I know some will disagree with me, but that's just how I personally feel about it.

I think it's possible to come across someone you have a connection with. I don't think soulmates exist though. :)

But if you look at it this way, then I guess everyone does have a soulmate:

This is a very good point. If you measured the level of perfect-ness of every person relative to yourself, then it must be possible to rank them in terms of how perfect they are for you. Since there are a finite number of people in existence, someone probably has the highest ranking, even if it's only by a tiny amount. I suppose they would be your "soulmate". I don't rate your chance of just happening to bump into them though. ;)

Just wanted to share with you all that i am getting married. My partner doesn't have SA or any issues of that sort. Maybe that is a tiny bit of hope for all who don't believe it can work between a person who has it and the other doesn't. We have been together for 4 years and he has helped me through my hardest times. So here is not my "soulmate" but just who i have chosen to love, and will do so as long as life enables it! :D

I believe in kindred spirits, so I guess that's similar to the concept of 'soulmates'.

It's probably more like what twiggle said:
I think a soulmate can come in any form - it doesn't have to be a romantic partner, it could also be a friend. And I don't think its a plain case of 'that person and me are very compatible, therefore he/she is my soulmate' - its about what you go through together and about how much you can bounce off each other. A soulmate is someone with whom you can make a soul connection - knowing how they feel without them having to tell you.

It's almost like a psychic connection. Someone who shares the same thoughts and feelings- who likes the same things as you and who always knows what's on the tip of your tongue (not literally.. I mean...uhh... metaphorically...and, uh... -__-)

I have not seen or heard a true case (that lasted) of someone finding their soulmate, but that does not deter me from thinking that it IS possible to find one.
Or maybe my blind belief that finding a soulmate is possible is just wishful thinking.:rolleyes: idk, I have positive thoughts so infrequently that when I have one, I hold onto it with a passion.::p:
