    I read somewhere, forgot the site, that you fall in love 6 times before you actually find your soulmate. Could it be true or just dumb?

    I dont really believe it cuz there are people out there that got married to the first person they've ever dated and it worked out. How many of you believe this?

    I don't believe that. Why 6? Seems a little farfetched to me.

    Lols I can't say I believe that one xD It does seem very far fetched to me also xD I've thought that I was in love once and am really in love now and so far he seems to complete me to perfection =) No one can tell you when to fall in love and certainly not when you'll find your soulmate =P It happens in it's own time and when it's meant to ^_^ Some people find their souldmate at 5 and grow up together and stay together for life, my grandmother found my grandfather when she 16 and they were together until he died a few years ago and others don't find theirs until much later in life *shrugs* Theres no set amount of times you'll fallen love before you find the one =)

    I dont believe that at all i think when you find that person you will really know that it is him, and if you get married and you then get devoride that is your problem i just you were wrong but i don't blieve that at all and 6 times is to many.

    6? That's a random number, but I think that each time before would be an expierence you learned from and hopefully really found out who your soulmate should be. Like what kind of qualities you are looking for in a soulmate.

    I dunno. i think you fall in love whenever you find the right person. setting a number before it just seems dumb to me.

    Lol. Are you sure you didn't just make that random number six up? It seems rather ridiculous to me.

    I don't believe one word of it! You can't "fall in love" that many times, unless it's when you fall in love each day over & over again with the first man you had fallen for because you are reminded of the reasons you had in the first place. But I think what everyone is referring to that's got us all riled up is "falling in love" with a different person each time; like it's a countdown. That's can't be possible, it seems so... hopelessly romantic! :P But seriously, it sounds pathetic & obviously desperate. I know a girl whor... who, pardon me, has "dated" alot of guys (simultaneously). She always coos & awes about how much she's "fallen in love", & even tells these guys, "I love you." And these guys keep falling for it... It makes me sick. I belief that you should only say, ''I love you.'' to someone if you really mean it; if you really love them, & if you don't love them; or mean it at the time, then don't say it.

    I've dated 2 guys in my life time (not including my 3rd, present & furthermore future boyfriend), & I've never said, ''I love you.'' to any of them... till now that is... My first boyfriend had told me he loved me, but I told him that I couldn't return that gesture in return because we'd just started dating & I was just getting to know him & I didn't feel that way yet. He understood (but we didn't last, he cheated on me with that girl whor... well, you know).

    And, not that I'm contradicting myself now, I firmly believe that falling in love more than once with more than one person is a load of bull & that finding true love & falling for someone is a once in a lifetime experience, but I also believe that a person can fall in love again (just not at once with two or more people & depending on the situation). I mean, for example: My grandpa lost the love of his life & mother of his 5 children to cancer at a young age. She passed away in her 30's. He still loves her even though they've parted & reside in two separate worlds for the time being. But he'd also got remarried a few years or so later to my grandmother. Sure, her blood may not flow through this family but she is still my grandmother, & still my aunts' & father's mother because she was there for them & my grandpa. In situations such as these, I believe a person can fall in love more than once & more than once with one person, even with both... But 6 just is overrated!

    I'm proud to say that I have fallen in love... For the first time with the first love of my life (at the age of 16)! He's the only guy I've ever dated who's relatively close for me to call a boyfriend, lover, friend, soul mate & much more--By a landslide!--as he's the only one whose earned that title. He's also the only one I've ever said, "I love you." to. We've been together a long time, I've had time to mean it. I know in my heart that he's the right one, 'cause I can live with him (he's recently been staying at my place because he's getting ready to move away :'( ) yet I can't live without him. I'm the jealous type of girl (as I'm sure are most girls), just the thought of not being able to see him, not being able to touch him, of him not touching me, not remaining close to me, of seeing someone else, of touch someone else, of him not remembering or replacing all the memories we share... It's all nerve wracking. We haven't known each other all our lives; we weren't preschool buddies but we certainly can be called high school sweethearts, he moved here a little over a year ago but it feels as though we've known each other all our lives; we're utterly & totally physically, emotionally, intellectually & spiritually comfortable with one another, sometimes too comfortable. :P He's the last thing running through my mind when I fall to sleep at night & the first thing to cross it when I wake up in the morning. I love him with all my body, mind & soul (for him, likewise), & I love his body, mind & soul! I'm proud of the two of us, in all the time we've been together we've never broken up once, we're the only couple around (where I live) whose been together the longest as we're the most serious & committed couple (not to mention one of the most maturest). I hope the little kids look up to the two of us, their picking up on bad habits if you know what I mean... Our parents get along great as well, as well as we get along with each others parents (almost all the time). He thinks of my parents as his own, & his parents consider me as one of theirs. I consider his mom to be a second mother & his dad a second father. I feel like I'm apart of his family (sometimes), & he feels as though he is apart of mine.

    When we first started seeing each other we were only hanging out & getting to know one another; becoming friends, or at least I was, I like to take it slow. He told me he liked me the day he laid eyes on me & would do anything to get me out of the house so he could get to know me. Then my parents told me they knew what he was up to. He'd left his watch at my place the first night he were hanging out & my dad told him he could come pick it up. But he didn't come for a whole week until I came home (I'd been gone a week), which was at 12 o'clock that night. When he was there he said, coolly, "I suppose your parents wouldn't let you out on a late night such as this." My parents overheard & immediately, practically, pushed me out the door! They totally played us! ;) One night we laid down on the blanket he'd unfolded & watched the stars, clouds & moon above, drinking slushies, talking. As we talked he leaned in closer until he was finally close enough to take the words--Literally!--right out of my mouth. It was like a dream, one of those kisses; moments, every girl wishes for or wishes they could have had... Not that I'm bragging any! :P I couldn't have asked for anything better. It was my very first memorable & meaningful kiss! That was the day I fell in love... Okay second, our first official date that we didn't even know about a couple days before our kiss was the first moment I fell in love with him. When we started dating it just sort of happened, there was no need to ask, ''Will you go out with me?'' 'cause we just were. Our relationship constructed itself, & I believe those are the best kinds of relationships!

    I think I'll wrap it up... I should have a long time ago, I just have so much to say. Lol. I just like conversing on topics like these with other people... Don't worry, I'm not as long winded as this in person (all the time). ;)

    Buddy, don't take this personally, but I really think you need to grow up even for your age. You're postings are rather pathetic to read, you sound like your trying to get everyone to "have your back" & side with you rather than let them have their own voice & mind. This isn't school; at least not for you I take it, this is not some kind of popularity contest. Why are you acting like such a "bully"? Why are you so hell bent on trying to put others opinions, beliefs, & morals down. The point of people posting is to give their viewpoints of the topic they're interested in, not for you to argue, ridicule, criticize or exploit (& who knows what else) others viewpoints whose may be different from yours. See, it doesn't bother me that you have your own viewpoint & state it in your responses to other peoples topics they've created on the discussion board because you're not the only one so openly about their own viewpoints on such topics (& when I say openly I don't mean perspective), it bothers me that you directly state your viewpoint to others individually by putting theirs down in a "as a matter of fact" type of way instead of just expecting & accepting that others have a different view than you. By doing so, do you think that your going to succeed in getting people to conform to you; drop their opinions, beliefs & morals to adopt yours, just because you think you've been there, done that, seen it all (supposedly)? Is that what you want, for me to sully myself beliefs & morals? If that's the case, you've wasted your time.

    ...Do you know what you're doing? I believe it's called cyber bullying. And I also believe the kind of comments you are posting are no more & no better than hatemail. How old are you anyways, aren't you a little old to be immature in this way? First offense or not, of cyber bully or hatemail, I should report you. But I'm not, at least not now. I'm willing to overlook it, all I'm asking for from you is a simple apology for your insensitivity...

    That'd be like me saying I have to have sex 6 times before I have an orgasm. rofl jk [sorry moderators] but its true. there are no limits and counting how many times before you find "the one".

    Lmao off ^^ now thats funny....

    but uhm anywayz...i dont really believe it because if you really love someone then why would you give them up?? so it could be your first love that turns out to be your soulmate.

    It maybe true, but it's all decided on FATE, So it's kind of hard to believe that there's an actual number on howmany times you'll fall in love before you meet your soulmate.
