i don’t really believe in the concept of a ‘soulmate’, because i think that there is no one person who is ‘perfect’ for another person. people are constantly changing. life is all about change. so, even if there was a theoretically perfect ‘soulmate’, then that person would change and throw off the balance, unless both ‘soulmates’ changed in just the right ways at just the right times. unlikely.
so, i think that the key is to creating relationships that work and taking care of them, because that very imperfect person right in front of you could be the one you stay with for a long, long time. it’s not the same as settling. it means creating a growing relationship.
