i totally believe in soul mates, as i have one.
but it's not in the traditional way. my best friend from hs was a year behind me....and when i left for college, he asked me if i thought ppl could be soul mates without having ever dated (although we should have at some point, but now i'm glad we didn't b/c now he's gay.....but whatever
), and i said yes. so he said that i was his soul mate.
i think a soul mate is someone that you connect with on ALL levels, but not necessarily on a romantic level. i know that no matter what, he's there, and he knows the same about me. it's a friendship, but it's also a lot deeper than that. that was 5 years ago......he's still my one and only soul mate.
and whenever i get married, he's gonna stand up with ME, on MY side. i'll have bridesmaids, but then i'll have him, too.
