Do you believe in "the one" person that is made for you (romantically)? - Question of the Day 9-20-10

There are easily several thousand people in the world that are compatible with each person. I don't believe there's only "one". 

" Yes and no. I voted yes because I believe there is one person out there who you are meant to be with and compliments you and your shortcomings perfectly. But I don't think they're made for you, just how it worked out. "

you are made for me
get in
 get in the car

" I don't want to fuck Neo  

Don't be stupid. It's emotional, sentimental garbage. There is no "one" except for Neo....

Yes, but she told me I was too negative and left. I think there is more to it than being totally attracted to each other, relationship skills are necessary to keep you together.

I do believe she exists 
do i believe i will find her one day ? 
 
 

HEEEEEEEEEEELL NO

" And love, it don't die. It just goes from girl to girl"    

" I voted no. Even though I believe that God..."

Yep, now I need to win her back.

No, there's 6 billion people in the world and there's bound to be a lot of people who seem to fit with you almost perfectly.

Yeah, some mathematicians worked out there's something like 87 perfect matches per person buy your chances of hooking up with them are 130,000:1 "

this is ridiculous that can't be a serious study please don't tell me it was a serious study! i don't want to live in a world where people get money to study silly things like this "

That doesn't bother me as much as people who get paid for working on shit like "Ghost Hunters" or whatever similar shows are out there. The type of TV shows where a group of guys go into some building with their little gadgets and claim to detect ghosts in a haunted area. That really pisses me off. "

long term relationships are hard work.

With divorce rates as high as they are, no.

"I believe that God can bring that "one" person into your life. But both my aunt and uncle who are still married over 30 years later are evidenced that it can happen. In their cases they knew right on sight and the person they found was the exact person down to specific details that they were praying for. My dad was even there the day they met and says my uncle Chuck had literally been talking about her before he met her. "

Yes, your Mom is the one and only for me. 

I want to believe, but...no. True love and soulmates only exist in movies. Or maybe I'm just super jaded.

Five years ago, I might have said yes, but since then my parents have gotten a divorce, my dad met, re-married, and then subsequently divorced another woman all in the course of about 10 months, several of my friends' parents have also gotten divorced, and on top of that I've totally screwed up quite a few relationships before they even really had a chance to get started and have ended up in a situation where I'm more alone than I thought it was even possible for a person to be.
 
So, in short...no.

Your family sounds like a bunch of blockheads. "

I don't believe so. I think most of us are just happy to find someone with enough patience to put up with our bs.

No, I do not - odds are, there are probably quite a number of people you would be happy with in a relationship - it's just that once you find someone you are happy with, you have no incentive to find anyone else (if you adhere to a monogamous relationship). There is no one "perfect" person for you - not only does everyone have flaws, but if you haven't dated every single person on earth, you cannot make the claim that they are the "only one". 
 
You might be very happy in a relationship, but there is NO WAY TO KNOW if you wouldn't be happier in another, or less happy. So stick with what you have if you're happy and don't worry about silly things like finding "the one". 

No.  there are over 7 billion people on the planet.  What is the chance "the one" even speaks my language, much less lives in my country.  

The one GET!

I think that there is a special person out there....and I know that makes me a hopeless romantic, but eh.... 
 
Tthe thing about it is that neither you or that person you are going to be with are ever going to stay the same....you're both going to change, and grow.  My concept of "the one" is someone who grows along with you, not neccessarily at the same rate, or the same time, or even the same way....but someone who isn't afraid to try something new and share the experience....and is there to support you through your own changes and difficult times as you are there for them.  "The one" is someone who you meet and get to know, and eventually just has your heart....they didn't take it from you, steal it, or anything....one moment, you have it, the next it's theirs, and it always will be.

One that is better than all the others. "

My left hand is the one <3 you babe

The definite answer should be no, because while you may think that the person you are with is possibly "the one" for you, there's always another candidate not too far from the current lover you are with right now. As long as you and "the one" love each other, I don't think there's any problems.

No;  this belief necessarily requires both an overarching plan, and a person in control of the creation of people.  I think this belief is not only baseless, but at best misleading and at worst narcissistic.  I think pursuit of "the perfect person" will cause you to miss out on a number of other opportunities.

I think a healthier view on the subject is that there are people who are compatible and those who are not.  I think I could be compatible with anyone who shares my major interests, values, and tastes.  It's the things that matter to you, both the big things and the little things, that are important.  I don't think people should compromise their values and dreams.

Of course not it's just a ridiculous Hollywood contrivance. There's plenty of people out there who match your personality and if you decide to settle for one of them that's just fine. Doesn't mean there couldn't still be a better partner for you out there though.

NO no no no no no no....You MIGHT be and not know it. "  

I know this shit sounds ridiculous but I really believe there is one person for me because I was lucky enough to find her. Been together five years and no plans of stopping any time soon. I don't think I would believe it if I hadn't found my girlfriend though. 

Yes. I'm not saying anything else.

I'm married and can say without question: HELL NO!

Yes, and I believe that I have found her. I don't know if it's working in the converse however, as I've already failed in asking her out once.

No. But, I'm a jaded person.

Nope.

Ughh no.. I mean you can find that gal or guy, and it's like your both so similar. But if there really was that person then in reality then why the hell are we searching. I mean say I was in a relationship now with someone that has similar liking and dis likings theres bound to be another with the same likings and dis likings as well. And plus for a fact no one is genetically 100% alike.  
 
So.. theres my answer. 

a little bit but i think more no than yes. i think there is somebody for someone but not for everyone. i don't think seeing somebody and then saying she/ he is the one. 

There is no, "one" but there are few that you can live with for years and still love.
