When you feel like you’ve met “the one,” it’s still hard to be entirely sure. So what are the soulmate signs that show you’ve met the love of your life?
It’s what we’re all looking for at heart, isn’t it? Your perfect match, your other self – your soulmate.
We hear about this kind of match-up all the time in songs and cinema,
two souls who are meant to be together in life and in love and who
often, against all the odds, are led by fate to find each other.
But we meet people all the time who we’re romantically interested in,
and we never enter a relationship thinking that the other person is
definitely NOT the one we’re meant to be with, so how are we supposed to
know? What giveaway signs might show us that this person is indeed our
twin soul and life love.
Signs you’ve met your real soulmate
The following list of twenty such signs are not comprehensive, and
you probably need to be ticking at least nine or ten of them to be sure,
but at least they’ll give you some idea of whether you’ve hit Cupid’s
jackpot in your search for the love of your life.
#1 You feel like you’ve been together forever. You
could have known them for months, weeks, or even just days, but at some
deep down subconscious level you feel like you’ve known them all your
life and beyond. A surefire sign that you’ve finally found the person
that you’re meant to be with.
#2 You’re always talking about them. Do you talk
about your other half at every and all opportunities? Do your friends
ironically roll their eyes every time you mention him/her because
they’ve heard it all a thousand times? A sign that they’ve entered your
mind and heart so pervasively that you struggle to find any other
comparison quite so pleasingly perfect.
#3 Sparks fly. You can’t really put your finger on
it, but every time you’re near each other there’s an energy in the air
that’s almost visible. Even the slightest touch sends jolts of chemical
electricity jarring through your body. A definite sign that you’ve found
your soulmate.
#4 You can tell them anything. You are entirely
happy confiding in your partner, and things that you would hesitate tell
your best friend just come rolling effortlessly off your tongue.
Another telling sign that you’ve found the one.
#5 Earlier partners fade away. It’s funny how we can
go through life entirely satisfied with our partners, or at least
mostly satisfied, but things never quite seem to work out. Then we meet
this amazing person, and all those relationships we had before, that
seemed great at the time, are revealed by comparison for how entirely
uninspiring and pedestrian they actually were.
#6 You want to be better for them. Do you find
yourself wanting to be a better person for your significant other,
preferring to lose your bad habits and negative personality traits in
order to avoid losing your love? If so then you could have found that
person with whom you were truly meant to be.
#7 You trust each other. Trust is the cornerstone of
all true relationships and having that in a relationship from day one,
without having to be worked at in any way, is another soulmate sign.
#8 You’re great friends. Your lives fit together so
effortlessly and in such a complementary fashion and as much as the
sparks fly, and your hearts lift every time you see each other, you are
also each other’s best friend.
#9 Shared principles. You can work at compromising
on your principles, but vastly differing approaches to the manner in
which you both choose to live can be really quite destructive, unlike
soulmates whose ethics and morals always seem to align so closely.
#10 A shared vision. Likewise, if you both have
dynamically opposed perceptions of where you both want to be in ten
years’ time – perceptions that are unlikely to compromise without at
least a small element of resentment. Soulmates tend to have their eyes
set at the same point on the horizon.
#11 Their company fulfills you. You really feel
nurtured and fulfilled simply by being with your partner, your battery
charged and soul replenished. Being separated for long periods has an
opposite, highly draining, effect.
#12 You enjoy their flaws. What others might
consider their flaws, or what you might consider flaws in others, is to
you a charming part of who they are and, therefore, something you would
never change. A soulmate for sure.
#13 Talk is terrific. The conversation you have with
a soulmate is always meaningful, fun or insightful. Words are never
empty, even when indulging in small talk, and you never tire of anything
the other has to say.
#14 No awkward silences. Perhaps an even more
meaningful sign that you’ve met your soulmate is that you never actually
have to say anything. Just being in each other’s presence is enough and
silences are a comfortable reminder of just how much you understand and
mean to each other.
#15 Instinct. There’s no real explaining this one,
but at some deep level you just KNOW that the person you’re with now is
the person you’re meant to spend the rest of your life with.
#16 You push each other. Seeing the potential in
each other, you are never satisfied to let the other settle for anything
less than the amazing future which they deserve. With gentle
encouragement, and the odd necessary shove, soulmates will always
support their partner’s direction.
#17 You can laugh together. Humor is a hugely
underrated part of any relationship, and soulmates will always be able
to laugh with and at each other with impunity – and never with any hint
of offense being taken or given.
#18 You involve each other in your decisions. If you
have decisions to make, no matter how big or small, and you couldn’t
imagine doing so without first sharing them with your significant other,
then that show of confidence, trust and love could be a sign of
soulmate matching success.
#19 Synchronicity. This sign is hard to explain, but
among soulmates there are often little signs, little coincidences that
constantly seem to arise. You both lived at the same door number when
you were kids, you both have pets with the same name, you both passed
your driving test at the same time of the same year. All things that on
their own mean little, but as they start to rack up seem increasingly
synchronistic. Some even believe that these recurring consequences are
signs from the angels.
#20 The earth moves. Good sex is by no means a sign
that you are soulmates, but if you experience something that goes just a
little bit deeper than any sex you’ve ever had before, that stimulates
your heart and mind as much as it does your body, then that certainly
may be a sign.
If you’ve looked down the list above and have spotted a
number of signs that are true of your relationship, then
“Congratulations!” It looks like you have indeed found your soulmate and
perfect partner for life.
