Soul Mates

“People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that's what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.

A true soul mate is probably the most important person you'll ever meet because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you and then leave.

A soul mates purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life, then introduce you to your spiritual master...”

― Elizabeth Gilbert


"Men need to hunt. She obviously understands this. She’s offering herself as prey. Not easy prey. But willing.”

I think it is possible to live with a soul mate

A soul mate is rare but invaluable...


A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing. George Bernard Shaw

    Quoting StrangerInEgypt:
    spending too much time with a "soul mate" becomes painful and repulsive with time and most if not all of us sooner or later will wake up realising this soul mate thing was more or less an illusion or fantasy!......human brain is too complex it can be our source of happiness and joy Or misery!
I think you are right. One more aspect of life that doesn't stand the test of time.

I like the mirrow and the dressoir..... cabinet.....hahahah, sorry...

I really would not know.... about that soulmate thing...
To me, it is a bit like that "perfect" thing....
Perfect stands in the way of all the good things, the great things, that happen, because of the ever lasting search for that "perfect" what ever..

So Unrealistic, = not workable.... But hat is just my crazy brain...
You may delete this message, LOL, xx

I agree with this. I thought I had found my mate. Well, in fact, I did. But as your post points out, it is not forever. You can't shut out the outside world. We were close enough to break each other's heart yet managed to fuck like rabbits when we got tired. Food. I return to food. Sitting around the table the conversations became forced and hollow. These days I absolutely have no recollection what I saw in her, nor her me I suppose. Yet, she was my soulmate. There was never one before her and never one since her. We went our separate ways.

I've experienced this before, once in my life. It was beautifully heartbreaking.
