Soul mates.
Do you think that everyone has one?
And if you do, do you think that even if problems and setbacks come our way, we'll eventually find that one person who completes us?
Or maybe do you believe that love must be worked towards and competed for?
Personally (being the romanticist that I am), I want to believe in the one. But i'm not sure. If, hypothetically speaking (cough cough ^_~), my "soul mate" is taken, what do i do? If I leave it to fate, does it mean I shouldn't fight for him? Does it mean I'll find somebody else? gwa?
lol...if you didn't notice, i'm slightly confused. and i think i've exceeded my daily does of girlish hormones. ^^"
personally, i dont really believe in either love at first sight or 'the one'. what i do believe in is true love, a special bond between two people that can last for as long as they are together, which would usually be until they are forcibly seperated somehow. and even then it is still there, but it can and will fall into the backround.
in the case of soul mates, i think it would have to be a two way bond to really be soul mates. otherwise its all one-sided and is just and heavy crush or something. if you do find your soul mate kannoxi, and he is taken, if he really is your soul mate, he would leave who he was with. even if he loved them, if he was your soul mate, your true soul mate, the very least he would do was tell his current partner about his true feelings. if he wont leave his partner for you, despite your convictions about him, then he isnt the one.
i dont know if my thoughts sound odd, but as far as im concerned, if the guy you're gushing over, fallen head over heels for (no, im not saying this to oyu in particular, just my thoughts) is the kind of jerk that would cheat on his partner with you, he aint anyone's soulmate. too selfish. soulmates can feel it when they're with each other. you'll know.

English doesn't borrow from other languages. It follows them down dark alleyways and mugs them for loose grammar.
I personally believe that there is a soulmate for everyone, but not as in love. I believe that everyone has one person that they connect with to the point where they know what they are thinking before they have to say it. My example is Will and Grace. I believe they are soulmates, but not in love.
When it comes to love, I don't believe that there is "the one" but that there are certain people that are more compatible with certain other people. "Fisson" which is used in the book All-American Girl, is the exactly what it is. A certain attraction or maybe a little bit of understanding about the person before even meeting them. The ones you love tend to be the oppisite of the one you think are going to be "the one" and they tend to know about you and care, they might not share interests but you are just happy together. That's why there is no "one" because there can be more than one person that you can be happy with. But hopefully not at the same time.
Fighting for someone who you think you love well, if you are ready for a threesome I guess. I don't think you should take a love away from someone else but I guess if you are both willing to share...
