I Don’t Believe in Soulmates

Hey there! So, let’s chat about something I’ve been pondering: the whole soulmate thing. Honestly, I’ve never bought into the idea. Sure, when I was a young girl, I wished for that earth-shattering love. But the concept that there’s just one person out there meant to be my perfect match? Yeah, I’ve always had my doubts. Back when I was 22 (we’re talking 1996 here), I remember watching a movie where a certain star said, “You complete me.” At the time, I thought it was so profound. I even thought that actor was pretty cool. But, trust me, I’ve had a reality check since then.

Merriam-Webster defines a “soulmate” as “someone who is perfectly suited to another in temperament.” But let me tell you, I’ve experienced love, crushes, and heartbreak. I’ve had my ups and downs, and through it all, I’ve never believed in the idea of perfection. So yeah, just to reiterate, I don’t believe in soulmates.

What I Do Believe

What I do believe is that:

• Two people can be a great match.
• Two people can also be a terrible match.
• Love shouldn’t hurt or diminish your spirit.
• Just because you feel attracted to someone doesn’t mean you have to be in a relationship.
• Attraction is definitely a key factor.
• Love takes work and compromise, but it shouldn’t feel like a constant struggle.
• Timing is everything—way more important than we often realize.
• You can have multiple significant loves in your life; each one is unique and valuable.
• I cherish being in a relationship, but I also appreciate my own company.
• You don’t need someone else to make you whole.
• Love isn’t perfect and it doesn’t always show up on your schedule or in the form you expect.
• You can find a love that stands out as the most significant in your life.

And you know what? I don’t subscribe to the idea that you must love yourself before you can love someone else. There are aspects of myself I’m not a huge fan of. Yet, I can still love—not just myself, but others too. After some time and effort, I’ve come to accept myself as I am, and that acceptance allows me to love others as they are too. And honestly, that’s good enough for me.
