Then my friend said: "Wow, he's you're soulmate! But you know, people don't always end up with their soulmate."
She changed everything. Because until then I could not accept an ending that did not come straight out of a fairy tale.
And actually, come to think of it, it seems that people rarely end up with their soulmate.
As if soulmates' purpose was not to share a life, but rather to follow their own separate paths, in sync with each other. And sometimes doing so having only physically met once or a handful of times.
Most of the time it seems we end up with a life partner, not a soulmate. A partner who can hopefully help make dreams come true, provide support when needed and share happiness... but perhaps simply in a different way than a soulmate would.
I have yet to understand the reason for this.
But this realization is the only explanation for the disappointing reality of two separate paths; Of two people living harmoniously without really being together.
