The other night I had a conversation with the BF about soulmates. I asked if he believed in them and he said no. After I sat and thought about it, I’m not totally sure if I do or don’t.
This falls into a random question a twitter friend asked. Now being a Love Jones lover, I gave the quote, “Love is what you make and with whom you make it”. And, I do agree But I guess much of my agreement with that is because of another LJ quote, “Falling in love aint shit. Can somebody please tell me how to stay there?”.
But I’m not so sure about this one. Falling in love with BF wasn’t hard once I allowed myself to be open to it. The hard part was letting go of fear and doubt on the love/relationship front. Now the staying there part hasn’t been hard yet. I’m not anticipating it but you know… Maybe you don’t ha!
So what’s your take on soulmates?
I believe in soul mates, but it takes much more–work, sacrifice and compromise to make sure those two souls stay mated. Ya know?
As my nashville peeps say, WHAT YOU SAID?!? Lol
I don’t believe in soulmates simply because the concept makes no sense. People always feel that they’ve found their soulmate when they fall in love, marry, etc. – then it ends. Later you hear them in coffeeshops saying, “I guess he wasn’t my soulmate after all.” We can’t predict the future. We can hope for the best with the one we have, but we’ll never TRULY know if we’ve found our soulmate or not.
As for the BF – you LOVE him?! Gasp! I need deets! lol
