Obviously this won't apply if you are happily married. Because then you wouldn't need to know about your soul mate

By knowing who your soulmate is- As soon as you see her for the first time you will know it. No question about it. If you don't believe in Soul mates then just someone you would really like.

Do over- Just a restart on life. You will sit down and just tell your mom how your life has gone in this life so she will know how to help you do better (if you trust your mom, if not someone you trust). And they will help make things work out for the better.


Note: I am by no means saying my mom did a bad job parenting, just that I could have done some better stuff with my life so far. Not her fault, bad decisions I have made.

I am not sure right now, I will post an answer after I give it some thought, just an interesting question I thought.

edit-...I can't look at my own poll until I give an answer

I would rather find my soul mate that anything else.
I have had many daydreams of my soul mate.
I do believe that everyone has a soul mate. Perhaps I over-romanticize things but it sure does makes life less empty and depressing.

I don't believe in soul mate theory. Out of 7 billion people only one is super compatible? Seems highly unlikely, regardless in terms of a person I am the most fond of, I would want the most compatible rather than settle than just settle for someone.

Honestly... neither. I'm not looking for a soul mate, and I'd rather not have to go through everything I did already. Once was enough. I may have things I regret, but I never would have learned from them and I wouldn't be the person I am today without them.

I addressed that, I said if you don't believe in soul mates than it would be someone you would really like

I know, and I responded accordingly no?

There's no such thing as "A soul mate"

So None.

I dunno, I guess I just found your wording confusing for some reason.

I have met people who have found their soulmate and it is very beautiful and real.
They don't always get along perfectly but they are perfect for each other.

Soulmates are not anything like the image created by Hollywood films but they do exist.

The lack of aspie romantics is upsetting. :(

What's wrong with not being a romantic?

Nothing is wrong with it.

It works for me because It makes me feel hopeful. I spend a good portion of my life daydreaming about love and friendship.
I have never actually experienced any of that. It seems to be a very non-aspie view of life since it's not very logical.

There are plenty of aspie romantics out there. I'm just not one of them.

well said i agree, the trials we go through are what make us who we are. and i don't rely on emotions to get through life.

that said if i could erase events in my past and not have had to go through with them, playing WoW and conquer online.
