Blogpost3: Are Soulmate for real?

When we were just little, we were made to believe that soulmates exist. I for one believed that my soulmate is just waiting for me out there, at the right time, at the right place. My friends and I would always talk about our crushes – our similarities, interests, their whereabouts, their features, their characters

and the way they would look into our eyes. For once, this strengthened our belief that soulmates really exist. But do soulmates really exist?


In the article "Do Soulmate exist?", author Gaol Auzeen Saedi asked a group of people if they believe in soulmates. They answered they don’t believe in soulmates, instead they believe in lifemates. One female respondent remembered her relationship in the past and how she got brokenhearted. She also reminisced when she met a man who was truly remarkable. “He was one of the good guys. Smart, funny, and most of all, kind. He was one of those whose soul you just knew was pure. He allowed me to believe in the goodness of men again” she said. They became together but broke up in the end.

We have the notion that if we find someone, we already consider them as our soulmates. In every relationship, there is dating, a breakup, maybe even a rebound. There is crying, anger, sadness, shock, and any number of emotions related to the experience of loss and grief. That’s part of growing up and finding our real soulmate that will become your partner forever. Open your heart and take the chance to fall in love again.

Another article I found is "Do Really Soulmate exist?" by M.Farouk Radwan, MSc. For him, soulmates don’t exist. In the author’s story, Sarah the main character, was young and didn’t get attention from her father. She didn’t know the feeling of having a father’s love. She grew up believing that she’s not important. She became so emotional and unconscious of herself. One day she met a handsome guy, a very kind one and that possessed similar facial features as her father. She started liking him and she thought that he’s

already her soulmate.

Sarah has been watching romantic movies since she was 12 and this influenced her thinking that this guy is already her soulmate because the feelings she got was really similar to the ones she saw in the movies. For Sarah, her soulmate existed without a doubt. Sarah fell in love with him because he helped her satisfy one of her very important needs. She always wanted her father to care for her and now she met someone who looks like her father who can take care of her. But eventually they broke up. After the break up, Sarah started building her self-confidence. She joined a 6-month confidence building course and there she was taught to feel good about herself even if nobody appreciated her. Suddenly she’s not losing interest in soulmates and getting into a relationship.

I beleive that it doesn’t matter if soulmates exist or not. The important thing is we find our lifetime partner. It doesn’t mean that if you fail once in your relationship, it’s already the end of the world. It just means you’re not really meant for each other and you just have to take the positive side and be happy. These things happen and we need to learn and grow ourselves into whole, loving human being. The willingness to take this commitment on and share it with another is much greater when we recognize the value and preciousness of such an agreement. And we didn’t know our next commitment will be our last and and if he is really meant for you.
