Still optimistic i will find my soulmate.

An advice columnist Amy Alkon tackled that subject on soulmates. She didn't believe that there was only one soul mate for someone. Her argument is that each person has a vast selection of soul mates. I always agreed with her. If the myth of soul mate was true, would there be so many divorces. Paul McCartney you could argue found his soul mate when he married Linda Eastman. John Lennon first marriage was definitely not to his soul mate. I have always thought the purpose of dating is to weed out the candidates that are not compatible. Then what do I know.

I have come to the conclusion, there is no such thing as a "soul mate". However, I do still believe there will be another love of my life. I just haven't found him yet.

Double post duh.

Nope lol online should be the last resort if all else fails.

YES!

Very good.

Lets see..
I am.46 now and my youngest son will be going into 9Th grade so by time I am 50 he will be.graduating and going off to.college


Don't tell me there isn't any hope after 50.

sheesh.gotta have something to.cling to

There's hope. I don't know if online dating is a good thing or not, but do know many couples that have met that way. Things work out for each person differently and will always be. You will meet the right person I have no doubt.

My daughter met her husband online....My sister married a man she met online...Based on the number of singles networking online, I'd say the chances of finding love are excellent...

Here's the deal. It's just a matter of mathematics.

There are lots of good people and lots of bad ones on the net.
The bad tend to have a practiced line of BS that sounds great at first and it takes time for you to see through the crap.

Most of the good ones are not right for you. That's just life. We all have quirks and the right fit is hard to find.

The good ones left are hard, but not impossible, to find. To find them you HAVE to communicate. Mingle2 forums are an opportunity to see into the minds of many ... some really good, some not so.

If you communicate with those of a like mind, you have a better chance of compatibility.

Mingle2 aside, in the non-net world, if you join clubs or do activities you like, you will improve your chances of meeting someone.

So true, went to the weigh in of a huge fishing tournament yesterday and was hit on at least twice....only problem there is it sets me back in the real world and never get their Numbers I am way to slow in the real world!!

This hits the nail on the head...
I have found I have made some really awesome friends from the forums. I have met some wonderful people from the internet and some not so wonderful.. I know that I found my guy from our forum postings...

Hi this is Scott from Kirkland wa. I'm a 52 year old male who has been divorced for 3 years and i still believe there is someone special out there for me wether i meet them on line or by chance in the real world. Unfortunately i have not actually met one peorson through the on line dating experience and it's been a year now but i am a optimistic peorson who believes nothing vetured nothing gaind.
This is just another Avenue for wich we can travel in search for our soul mate and let's be real i would rather find a great friend first who you can be honest, open, silly around and to be comfortable being ourselves this is when the real magic happens that all I'm looking for. So to all my wish for you is to just injoy the journey. Scott from Kirkland wa.

yes i think it happens all the time!

can it happen on line... sure ... when have no idea... how ...have no idea...might all be in the first conversation we have with them ... I don't believe either marriages... I married a soul mate ... because I did not even know what that meant back then ... + I thought you could never loose your soul mate but read you can ... and just figured that would not have been a soul mate if I lost them ...

You are so right angel.

Me too. Never settle. I met one younger one here and he decided we should meet once and move in with one another. Of course, it was I who would give up my work, leave my family and move in with him. I would than do everything with him. I bolted!!

I guess if you are not looking you won't find

Chances are more if you are out there.

For the answer is yes and no depends on you.

What is a soul mate? first of all women will deny they are really looking for a man who makes $100k or more a year. the #1 reason for divorce is women wanting their husband to earn more money, they must have expensive items, be better than their friends. yet majority of the money seeking women say they are Christian. if your a Christian ask yourself this," did jesus go around seeking money?"
