Thanks :-)
Yeah, proximity and time...
Those things play a significant role.
I hope this doesn't muddy things
(Because I know some people have some deeply held beliefs about romantic love and soul mates)
But I think ALL relationships are like that too...And there are so very many people in the world
And within that set there is a sub-set of the people who you could potentially have an intimate relationship with
And within that set there is a sub-set of the people who you could potentially have happy and fulfilling and lasting intimate relationships with
And proximity and circumstances and time
Play the most significant role.I don't believe that each person has one and only one soul mate out there...
There are lots of possible people
Who things could work out really well with
Circumstances permitting.And I guess thats why I don't think that one should be prepared to sacrifice everything for love
Because circumstances can conspire against you sometimes
Like, for example, when people think their t is their soul mate or something like that.
Maybe... In a different context.
But given the situation is what it is it is inappropriate
(And circumstances conspire against you)
But it is not the end of the world
Because there are other people
Other possibilities
Where circumstances are not against you
And proximity and time is all that is needed.But if you don't like this please ignore it...
