yes... but not as in true mate/ the perfect one.
souls travel in soul groups, that is if u believe in reincarnation.
Then there is the karma factor, so a soul mate could even be someone who has come into your life and caused nothing but hard times, but a soul mate non the less, as he/she has had a spiritual contract with your soul to help your spiritual growth.

then of course there is the soul mate who is "just a friend" and nothing more...

so, imho, there are many forms of soul mates. soul mates are just that..... ones who come into your life and help u learn something, something that evolves you.

Yes, I have yet to find mind. Sometime, there are just individuals whom you are just drawn to b/c of circumstances or frequencies.

Nope. Used to when I was younger and had a more romantic, idealistic and naive notion of what love is, but not anymore.

I think what Ace said up above most accurately describes how I feel now, having lived a bit more and experienced life.

I don't believe in believing in belief unless the belief is believible when this belief doen't require a believer to exist. So, yes and no.

Yes!

I believe that there are different types of soul mates. Friends, lovers, acquaintances..

A soul mate is not always a forever deal.

Your soul mate can be one that comes back into your life to complete something from the past.

Ok so far we have 9 no's and 12 yes's .....

I don't believe that there is one person out there for you.
I think it's more like a case of different people filling in different parts of your needs.
There might be 50 people out there that you could easily live the rest of your life with. Each one is slightly different in that they fullfil a different part of your needs.

That's just my guess anyway.

just not marriage lol

yes, but i don't believe we only have one

and there's always the situation in which u think u've found a soulmate, only 2 find out that your judgement was blinded by infatuation

but if u have a very strong connection with anyone in the world, i believe u can call it soulmates

my sister was my first known soulmate... we know everything about each other, it's scary sometimes...strong sisterly vibe

SammiJ said:

That's my feeling, too...and my sister Debbie was my first soulmate as well...

Byron said:

aww!!
hey stranger (oops! i gotta email u! look 4 it in 5minutes)

People who are in a good relationship now are likely to say yes, while people who've had bad experiences are likely to say no. A few people are able to be objective, but not many.

Fauxie said:

i'd like to be able to say that the person i'm with right now is my soul mate (as i do believe in them), but i know there's a high probability he isn't, because we're so young.

yet that doesn't stop me from hoping.

evenstar3 said:

ditto!
i love my hunni lots, and i hope 4 him 2 be my soulmate..but it's still 2 early 2 determine...

evenstar3 said:

Right. Any smart individual has to be a little realistic about it, but when you love somebody it's hard to be objective. I think I have a right due to the circumstances of meeting and coming to be with my wife to be a little romantic about it.

I got where I am now from instincts and spontaneous decisions so if I feel she's my soulmate I'm not going to doubt those feelings.

I believe in soulmates and it doesn't have to be a romantic relationship either.

Soulmates, so many theories
I do believe in them, i believe u can have more than 1 as well
& they may appear to you at different stages of ur life
Soulmates doesn't always have to have the romantic tie to it
a soulmate could be ur sibling, friend, not always ur lover
I believe we have connections with certain people and that can be taken as soulmate as well, depending on who u speak to about this.
Love the subject though

How about orgmates?

NoodleSoup said:

Oh, absolutely. I definately have connections with people I've met here.

TheOrgerFormerlyKnownAs said:

Thanks!

Hell to the Yes.

I think you're given three great romantic soul mates in your lifetime.

Anybody ever had a platonic relationship w/ a soul mate when they weren't related to you and were the opposite sex and attractive?


I, for one, dont believe that can exist without a little

Looks like yes wins!! lol

absolutely

cinnamonjo said:

You may have a point.

cinnamonjo said:

why 3? that seems very...specific.

but i agree with one thing - i wouldn't use the phrase, 'soul mate' if it were purely platonic.

TheOrgerFormerlyKnownAs said:

Certainly. There are some really cool people on the org.

TheFrog said:

I've heard that number repeated so much in conjunction with that theory...and it sounds better than anything else like 2 0r 5.

platonic meaning no sexual relations-- are we saying there can be no soul mates without soul mating?
