It’s preposterous
Exactly

But as we know with religion, people really, really love to believe in shite that is patently absurd.

That's kind of a pure love for someone that feels transcendent that I can strongly relate to. And definitely not any of that "the one" silliness. Although I'd strongly recommend that you hit that on the reg...

Makes me think of the Old Charlie Robison (RIP) song, "you're not the best, but you're the best that I can do".

I don't subscribe to the concept there is ONLY one person for another out there.

However, if it is true, then I am with her.

This is bullshite! There are so many varibles in a persons life there is no way possible there could only be "One". There are probably thousands if not millions of "The One" in reality.

Now is it possible you meet someone that you fall in love with so much that you never feel the same about anyone else? YES, I totally believe that could happen.

I do. I knew I loved my fiancée from the moment I laid eyes on her. I knew she was “it” for me. It was a feeling I had never experienced before. In 2.5 years we’ve never fought, argued, broken up, etc, and she puts out daily. It’s a win-win for everyone. No pics of said fiancée.

Oh, that's not a problem.
We're strongly compatible there. She asked on our second date if I was passionate in the bedroom. " I have to ask, since you're 50. I lived a sexless marriage for nearly 13 years and I'm not enduring that again."
I'm doing the OT proud.

Knew the second that we met that she was the one. Been together for 30 years. It’s been rocky at times, but she is the only one that I would have ever spent the energy to stay together.

(Quote) I've learned that someone, i.e., my ex-wife, was "The One" for a certain stage of my life and not for another, as she chose to leave our relationship.

Sorry to say this, but it sounds like you thought you found the one and she is the one who broke off the marriage so she is the one who said you aren't the one for her.....

I have found my "one." Been happily married for a long time.

I believe it because I found her. I am divorced and found a woman that has so much in common with me it's insane. We can read each other without being around each other. Almost telepathy. I'm fortunate.

My "ONE" dump me because I wasn't up to her high falutin family standards.

Her mother was so proud of herself when as she put it "got her daughter away from me".

fast forward about 15 years - The daughter gets hooked on heroin, is in the high double digits of men she's banged and ended up in prison. Never married and no children.

I have a better job than anyone in her family ever had and live in a bigger house than any of them ever did.


You should write her mother a note thanking her profusely. If you married her you be either miserable or divorced with less of your assets

I do not.

In my experience, when someone says they've found their "soulmate", they are often using the term to justify their own infidelity. Not always, but often. They are pulling away from the one they married for some reason and justify it "because they weren't 'the one.'"

I have a great marriage. My wife and I are very compatible, which is incredibly important. But, I am not perfect for anyone, so why would I think I deserve someone who is perfect for me.

JMHO.
