Tweeted this yesterday if soulmates were felt, or realised, and received a couple of very interesting replies in relation for ideas of heart, mind and soul - and a dive into a "soul's partner"
Thought will be interesting to thread it https://twitter.com/btohtoh/status/1313547585974464512

@captain_mrs shared that it was a fate thing - meaning that it's based on the context
It's not something that is universal - and there is a definite inner "choosing" of a soulmate, but also not really. Things just kinda happen, and you got to let it happen https://twitter.com/captain_mrs/status/1313549565434396673

@dj_bowers following up on context.
He explained that it is as "heart" thing, due to Imago Theory saying that we choose our partners based on an unconscious, idealized concept of familiar love that we develop during childhood https://twitter.com/dj_bowers/status/1313559274027712517

@reddy2go added another variable - the body https://twitter.com/reddy2go/status/1313760357576392706
@ytothej said it was a soul thing
And actually a concept that I love toying with is that we are all each other - sharing the same soul. A soulmate is like a twin soul, just happening to be born in the same time, and made up of the same bits as you https://twitter.com/btohtoh/status/1313758943416446983

@ChristJe says it's a mind thing
Agree with this on the basis of soulmates being a partner of some sorts. Love is a choice.
I was wondering if there was another kind of "soulmate" too that went on a deeper unperceived level than "love" https://twitter.com/ChristJe/status/1313780409663062018

@jennykim and @adamkissel shared on how friendship = tenderness + truth
I love the point about tenderness - and I think is a core reactionary element of being with people "fate tells you to love". Recognising that being able to be tender is an indicator https://twitter.com/jennykim/status/1313811042011619330

I have a couple more thoughts on love and soulmates:
I read Aleph by Paulo Coelho many years ago, and tells his personal revelation with meeting a woman he loved in his past life
A question Aleph poses, "What is the meaning of our personal journeys? https://www.goodreads.com/fi/book/show/17678446-aleph

And taking into account everything else in this thread
In our personal journies, we encounter people, and we touch, feel, and respond to individuals with little bits of our soul. We intertwine. We may let go. We may hold. A soulmate isn't a person, it's a feeling and a choice.
