Post Confusion leads to Curiosity

If case you haven't figured it out, just about any emotion, state of mind, etc. leads me to curiosity.

This time, though, the question is more serious than previously.

Do you believe in true love? That there is someone out there who is your "soulmate"? And all the other stuff that goes with the idea of "true love."

well, once upon a time i did, but life has made me rather bitter. although i no longer believe in a preordained soul mate, i do believe there is someone out there for everyone.
there are 6 billion people in the world, there is no reason to settle for anything. there's someone out there who believes in the same things as you and enjoys the same things, etc.

I do not belive there is a "Soulmate" out in the world. Neiter do I belive "That there is someone for everybody"

But hey - I've always been cynical

Part of my wants to think that such things are possible, but another - the cynical part - tells me otherwise.

True Love - Sure it exists, other issues just get in the way.

Soul Mate - Nope. You don't just find someone who happens to fall in love with you. You have to work for it, and so does your partner.

Edit: To clarify, I believe that many people in the world could end up being one person's supposed 'soul mate'. It's a matter of finding an (atleast somewhat) compatible person and making sure you put enough effort into it to make it work.

Absolutly, I know because I met her, unfortunatly, we didn't last. But, that is another long story. Anyway, just my two cents worth.

Cool

I believe in true love, but also in false love... false love being USUALLY "love at first sight". But true love is when both lovers believe they will stay together for all eternity... not as long as the contract. ~_~;;
