   Do you believe we have one true soulmate in our lifetime?
   
   Do you believe we have one soulmate or are there a number of potential people out there whom we could happily spend eternity with and we just find one of them?

   Right now I'm inclined to believe that I found my one true soul mate.  I'm married to her right now. In the next lifetime, I think it would be a great adventure finding her then spending the rest of my life with her all over again.

   Soulmate is hard to come around but surprisingly, my wife is my personal soulmate where we practically share everything in life. We are like a couple, good friend and playmate.

   I believe so, because I have been with mine for almost 20 years. But I suppose some people don't have just one soulmate, whether their soul isn't ready for this or just by spiritual choice.

   If I would still believe there's only one true soulmate, I'd had to giggle about it because I have been saying this about my last 7 long term relationships.
   
   I do believe I haven't met THAT person yet though I imagine there are about 2 or 3 walking around the globe, who would be a perfect match.
   
   I'm curious to find out when they cross my path and in the meantime I'm enjoying my single, adventurous life every single day:-) No hurry, no worries and a lot of love around me anyway.

      Thank you Anna. I prefer to accept that I will never have one, and that the world is big enough and diverse enough that we can all be valid in our various situations and conditions..

      You are absolutely right and that is the answer I should have given  back to you after your first comment.
      You surprised me with this answer today and reminded me that contentment shouldn't  ever depend upon a third party.
      Thanks jonnycomelately.

   No - I do not believe in the idea of a soul mate - or destiny in general.  I think that life provides opportunities to experience the world in many different ways and settings, and to meet all kinds of people.  I don't think that there is just one perfect match for a life partner.

   I feel like there is someone for everyone, whether it's only ONE true soulmate 100% perfect match for you..i dont know.
   But my belief is that if you feel as if this person is literally the other piece of your soul, he/she is your soulmate.
   
   but there billions of people in this world...
   you find your own soulmate. there are alot of potentials.
   but "soulmate" to me is a personal choice.

    Anna, this is a very good question.
    
    I felt that I had married my soul mate in my first marriage.  He must have felt
    differently, as he was still shopping around while we were still married.  He is
    on his 5th. or 6th. wife.  Hopefully, this is the one.
    
    Then, I met the man of my dreams.  I adored everything about him.  Then, the  years brought many changes to each of us.  We share very few interest at this
    point of our lives. 
    
    Do I believe we have one true soul mate?  No, I believe we meet someone with common interests, form a bond and find some sexual chemistry.  All the while,
    in the back of each person's mind, they are wondering if they could do better.
    
    When the decision is made that neither can do better.  The bond solidifies.
    
    I do believe than many couples match up well, and have held on to that
    special something over the years.  They are truly blessed.
    DJ.

    Yes I do.
    I spent 5 years with someone 'trying to make it work' and it just never did. I spend 5 years with the same person and still felt like I never really new him. I broke free from the relationship and spent 1 month with the next person and felt like I'd known him all my life. After 1 month we knew it was 'meant to be'. We're now engaged to be married in December after less than a year. I feel for him what I never felt even one ounce for the guy I was with for 5 years. I didn't know feeling this way was possible.
    We're so similar it's amazing. We have the same type of personalities, same outlook on life, same sleep patterns lol I could go on and on forever. 
    The fact that we were in the same first grade class and then bumped into each other 18 years later and totally hit it off feels like no 'co-incidence' to me.
    I really in no way believed in soul-mates until I met him.

    I think there isn't just one person but many you can have that soulmate feeling for. I've felt that toward two people, one I met when I was too young to marry, then distance and ambitions got in the way. The other I've been married to for 10 years. There are ups and downs, but our life together is wonderful. I do think if circumstances were different I could have had a great life with the first guy too.
    
    If you are looking for a soulmate, good luck! I am confident you will find him/her.

       Thankyou I have had Mr Anna for a long time and although he infuriates me at times I wouldn't swap him for anyone else. So maybe I already have
