Only ugly people with no confidence don't.

Kind of...

 

 

I believe in soul mates but I also believe they're made as friends, not lovers. Although, they can be both. I don't know if that makes sense. I'm kind of weird.

Kind of?

Kind of?

 

I like to pretend I'm at least a little cool, okay? :(

No, if that were the case the chance of meeting someone you loved would be a lot lower than it evidently is.

 

I mean, rationally...

:cool: <---Mikamay

i do. :nice: as some "proverb" said: there must be the right one out there for you. :)

 

 

but i honestly get confused at times when i have some special connection with some friends or people that share some interests as mine, although at the end i prefer my partner as he also share that ;)

 

anyways i got to think that Love is not only refered to our partner, but also on other people we meet in our life.

 

 

The trend I've noticed on Coldplaying is that all the ugly people are pessimistic about love.

well that is so relative in itself, as beauty (as art) is relative ;)

I have to say Yes... I do believe in love and i do believe there is someone out there, who will be my one true love...

 

 

Josh... i dont think so... is relative... a lot of people nowadays feel really pessimistic about love... its all about sex...

I think people look too hard for love.

No, I don't believe in one true love- because there are lots of good potential matches that could turn into "true love" and I think ultimately love is a choice. It mainly depends on how compatible your personalities are, where you are in your lives, how much you are both willing to put into the relationship...

 

The thing is even "true love" takes a lot of work and self-sacrifice and compromise to hold it together. Love means both people putting the other before themself; it means shared time and shared memories, not just a warm, fuzzy infatuated feeling that will go away in a couple of years (because it always does).

 

Of course those are ideas our society seriously isn't ok with these days. You're supposed to put yourself first-do what you want and what makes you feel good- and love is a feeling you feel in your guts (or at least your pants). Nearly 50% divorce rate... working really well, don't you think?

here goes

 

CHEEZ ALERT!!

 

Well, this is going to sound kind of sappy (is that the same as cheezy?), and I don't mean to preach, but here goes.

I do not believe that there is one, single person with whom you are destined to spend the rest of your life if you are just lucky enough to meet him/her. If you're not so lucky, too bad - no true love for you! Of course you can try to manipulate your luck, try to stack the cards, so to speak, by doing everything that you or someone else can think of to increase your odds of actually meeting THE ONE (whiten your teeth, wear the coolest clothes [of course "cool" is a relative term] spend extra bucks on your haircut, have cosmetic surgery, go to the gym, own more things, bigger things - you get the idea). And you can really get dizzy and confused trying to outwit the trends to attract the soon-to-be enamoured so he/she will notice you.

No.

What I believe, and what I have experienced, is that we meet many different people as we go from day to day, from school to work to home or whatever. Some will find us interesting and we'll find some of them interesting. Maybe you can cultivate that one-ness with one of them. Maybe you'll grow into it.

Maybe, like me, you'll meet your "one" and you'll be caught off guard, never having expected it to happen there, then, that way. If you do, you'll know pretty quickly whether or not that is the person with whom you will share a commitment to share your lives. You won't doubt it. You'll know it with certainty like you've never known. And while "happily-ever-after" isn't realistic, a joyfully shared journey with one committed other, come what may, warts and all, is, I assure you, a pretty amazing and real thing.

Some say it's the best thing life has to offer. Some say that parenting a new life is life's best gig, but when Jr. is 25 with the job that pays more than you'd ever dreamt of earning, will you want some "one" to come home to? Someone to grow old with, whether you're rocking on your porch or dancing at a Coldplay concert?

Most of us do. So relax. Don't worry. Be patient. Enjoy the place where you are in life. Explore the universe. And dance!

BUT A 50% SUCCESS RATE

Yes, it takes commitment and perserverence. But the beauty of love is that the desire to sacrifice for your "ONE" remains a joyful decision and becomes one that is never questioned. Love is rising above one's self. And oh, the rapture of that!

I agree in the most part with you... I neither believe the "one only true love" thing.

 

Except for the "putting the other before oneself" part, and I don't mean it in a selfish way (just as the example you did put which is waaay too common, people that think only of themselves). I think a relationship is about growing as a person individually but also sharing yourself with the other. Responsibly: A path together with a strong sense of commitment. At least that's my point of view.

This thread is becoming a tl;dr

that is what I understand from 'soul mate' too...

The thought of having a male soul mate frightens me. I like the thought of soulmates being lovers better.
