Do people actually believe in the existence of soul mates anymore? Did such a notion ever actually exist? I don't know if I even believe in the traditional role of "love" and it's components ( Read more... )

Well, I knew the moment I met him that I was going to marry him. It wasn't something I was happy about, to be quite honest! I wasn't ready to meet him yet (I was 18) and I was interested in someone else.
I married him a few months later. We've been married for six years. I met him in August of 1999 and We got married in April 2000. So we knew eachother for eight months when we got married. It was a little surreal celebrating our first year anniversary of knowing eachother and already being married.

Another honest thing is that our marriage was pure hell for atleast the first two years. I mean it was PURE HELL.

I am very fortunate. I feel very blessed to be married to my husband. My advice to people considering marriage is actually this: Marry someone that you can still think, "God, I love this person." when you hate them. Because there are really bad times. I have looked at my husband and thought, "I really can't stand him! He's such an asshole!" but I never stopped loving him.

Basically it is all about how hard you are willing to work to make it work. We were going to get divorced at one point. Fortunately, we were both too exhuasted to do the steps it takes to get divorced.

We really started to fall in love with eachother about three years ago. I look at him and I feel so happy to have him. I'm filled with such love for him that I could never express it. Plus, I doubt you care to read about it.

I do feel that I have other soul mates out there. And, because I got married so young, I sometimes wish I had experienced more. When things were quite bad the desire was much stronger. Now, it's just a passing thought that pops up sometimes.

OK. I've rambled on long enough!

That's lovely. I thank you for sharing. Refreshingly normal as well. I guess strong relationships are never made over night. They take such dedication to make them work.

I hope one day I'll meet someone worth the effort. I'm very glad you have. :-)

Take care.
