I know I had one for a while in my life- then she got a promotion and left this life as we know it.

So I am sure that there is the right person out there for you. I found mine as the result of prayer and almost missed it because of external circumstances and appearances.

So maybe yours is there too, but you have imagined the wrong face and as a result you need look no further then close at hand.

I agree that soul mates and even true love take a conscience decision and a commitment. They also take time to remove the rough edges and ease the pains others have caused us. In short even with the perfect soul mate and true love- it takes work and commitment.

I think "true love" is built after a long relationship where trials and problems are shared and overcome, rather than something that just happens between a couple or that just pops up full-blown, though there probably will be an initial attraction and a feeling of connection. As you date and explore your relationships with girls, don't hold them to impossible standards of "soul mate", or you may miss one who could, eventually after many years, become a true soulmate. Best wishes!

"True love" is an ideal. You will not find that. But you CAN find some very close matches to that ideal if you are willing to look and be patient. What you seek isn't perfect love because people change over time. Love now could easily turn into hate. But what you CAN seek - and have reasonable belief in finding - is a partner who looks compatible now and who appears to be willing to grow in the same direction that you wish to grow. Years after you have been together, you realize that your life and hers have intertwined so closely that you love her as much or more than you love yourself. Don't go looking to make the perfect instant match. Shoot for the perfection that comes through mutual growth.

PS - I will celebrate 19 years of marriage to my dear wife this November. I believe that what I just described to you is pretty much what happened to me.

You're wasting your time, soulmates are women's inventions to trap men. Eventually they'll show their true colours. There IS no "right" woman. All are OK for a while, but's that's it. Time will tell. Be happy.
