8 Signs That You’ve Found Your True Soul Mate

Whether you believe in the concept of soul mates or not, most would agree there are some people who affect you so intensely they take your breath away. It’s an overwhelming feeling that you just can’t shake. Meeting the person you were meant to be with can disrupt your world in such a way that it can completely engulf you.

There’s no feeling quite like meeting the person you were meant to be with. Here’s how you can know you’ve met the right one.

1.You’re comfortable being vulnerable

Opening up to someone new can be terrifying. If you find yourself opening up easily and sharing secrets you’ve never told anyone else, it’s a good sign you are connecting on a deeper level. When you can easily share all of your shame, fears, desires, and fantasies, you’ve met your match.

2.You have a strong attraction

We’re not just talking about physical attraction but also emotional attraction. Sure, you may want to ravish each other, but you also feel an emotional connection. It’s as if when you’re together, you melt into each other. It’s a meeting of the mind, body, and soul.

3.You can’t see yourself with someone else

Even if you try, you can’t imagine what your life would be like without this person. The thought of being apart is physically painful. You want to spend more time together and dread leaving each other. While all these things signal a strong connection, don’t forget the importance of compatibility as well as shared interests and values. It is also important for you to respect each other. When all these factors are in harmony, you just know it’s right. When you’ve found the one, don’t let anything get in your way. Do as much as you can to try to be together. Life is too short to wonder “what if.” Life let your paths cross for a reason, so take your chance while you still have it.

4.They listen fully.

You can tell when someone isn’t listening to you. That special partner will turn off the game, put their phone down, and look directly at you when you’re speaking. They listen fully to what you’re saying. They aren’t simply waiting for their turn to speak.

5.Their emotions are free.

A truly special partner will let their emotions flow like the water from a stream. They won’t hold back how they feel. That transparency is important in a relationship, as poor communication leads to resentment and other issues.

6.They support you but call you out when needed.

The right partner will support you through thick and thin, but they will also challenge you. If you deserve it, they’ll put you through the ringer. They’ll play devil’s advocate. They’ll make you stronger for it.

7.Words aren’t necessary

A certain look or glance can tell you all you need to know. Your non-verbal communication is so powerful, there are times when there’s no need to speak at all. You can relay feelings of longing, love, trust, and playfulness effortlessly.

8.You laugh easily

Laughter is key to a healthy relationship. You should find yourself laughing easily and often. Something is not right if you usually feel tense and uncomfortable around each other. The right relationship should feel like coming home. “It’s a safe bet that most of the laughs married couples get come from TV laugh tracks, not from each other. They don’t emanate from the relationship. More important, they don’t feed it. And if the jokes that make the rounds by email are any gauge, often they are at the expense of it. But homegrown laughter may be what ailing couples need most. Uniquely human, laughter is, first and foremost, a social signal — it disappears when there is no audience, which may be as small as one other person–and it binds people together.
