So if you feel comfortable, energized, and intimate with someone even though you’ve only just met them, there’s a good chance this relationship will go the distance.
It is still important to have friendships outside of your relationship. This simply means you just easily “get” each other on a deeper level than you usually experience, you share a sense of humor, and you quickly become each other’s number one source of support.
Relationships often fall apart when the two people try to change each other. In contrast, soulmates respect each other on a fundamental level. Plus, this respect is based on really knowing each other (flaws and all).
This is one of the most significant signs that you’ve found your soulmate because it’s not only an indication of a deep connection but also one of the most reliable predictors of a happy partnership.
Your ideal partner will not only admire you for all you’ve done but open your eyes to all you could do. This can be challenging because it will mean that the two will often encourage one another to step out of your comfort zones.
No relationship is without conflict, even when soulmates get together. There will always be obstacles and bumps in the road. But byou’re trying to cope with family difficulties, financial worries, illness, career uncertainty, or parenting issues, a couple who are meant to be together will keep fighting for the relationship.
Soulmates are able to strike the right balance between time together and time apart. They trust each other and still feel close when they’re doing separate things, rather than being consumed with feelings that do not serve. This is when the need to understand and overcome jealousy or deal with anxiety.
Finally, it’s common to have a range of masks that you wear in different situations in order to get on or fit in. However, one of the most satisfying things about being with a soulmate is that there’s no need for any pretense. Rather, you automatically behave entirely like yourself, and it feels like you’re showing each other your true selves.
Becoming empaths in this way allows you to feel like a team, and prevents jealousy or competitiveness from developing within the relationship. Even more importantly, sensing one another's feelings facilitates deep understanding, including in areas where others may have struggled to understand you in the past.
There's a common misconception that soulmates are just carbon copies of each other. In reality, finding a soul mate is more about meeting someone perfectly complementary rather than someone identical. It's likely that you'll have a set of compatible underlying values, for example, and a broadly similar idea of what a wonderful life together might look like.
However, even with a soul mate, you may need to work at learning how to trust someone. If you've been hurt before, it may be hard to relax into love. In time, however, if you're with your perfect match then you'll offer and receive total trust.
