No way! love,friendship, repect,chemistry, background & sometimes huge effort will help most relationships to succeed
-
Of course not. You have many soul mates otherwise the chances of meeting "the one" would be next to nill.
-
Every single time I've been in love, I've been completely convinced it was with "the one". I believe there are many "the one"s for everyone. The world is full of too many people for there to be only one "the one" for each of us.

In a word - no. I think the idea of "The One" is something that has been promoted and drummed into our heads by the Media and Entertainment industries. We're always being bombarded with movies about finding "The One" and made to believe that anything less than "true, perfect love" isn't worth our time. Love can't be perfect, because perfection doesn't exist, so it's a never-ending circle of unfulfilled, unrealistic expectations. I also think that by buying into the whole "The One" notion, you're automatically (in your own mind) lessening the worth of anyone you might be with after "The One", or heightening the worth of someone you WANT to be "The One". This type of thinking, in extreme cases, can be dangerous and lead to very real problems. Love someone for who they are - not for what you want or expect them to be!

well if you go by this statistically there is 2 million "the ones" to every one person i found this out in a statistics class. and it comes down to like 2,137,000 something to that nature...

"The One" "The Tooth Fairy" "Father Christmas" "The Easter Bunny" They are all part of the same group to me. Though I must admit, I am quite freaked out at the moment. Maybe the Tooth Fairy does exist after all? Update More shocks. I swear I just saw the Easter Bunny bouncing outside!

yes and no. I believe that there is only one *soulmate* for each person, but I beleive that there is more then one person you can love, even love deeply, and be very happy with for life, even if they are not your *soulmate*.
-
No... How sad would that be? I married "the one", and then got divorced after 12 years. That would have been the end of any joy in my life. Now I fell in love and married another "the one", and she IS "the one"... God forbid something should happen to her, because I am crazy about her, but... If it did, all hope would not be lost, because there are about 2,000,000 different "ones" out there. Each with their own unique personalities. Please Lord, if you are listening, keep my "the one" out of the path of danger. I want to keep her.
-
Well, yeah, in a way. Yet, then death and divorce happens. I think it is the ideal, though, and what most want and if people actually work at it and let God handle things, then it would really happen.
-
I believe in ONE at a time. Anything else just gets complicated.
-
For me, there's only one. I don't know what life holds for us but I know that no matter what, I will feel for this person a love I will never have for anyone else. Whether we spend a lifetime together or end up with different people. That said, I don't believe it's necessarily true for everyone. This is good, because it's more love to go around.

I believe in a movie called the matrix....
-
I think that life is what you make it. And I think that a partnership is what you make it..You build from nothing and create something great. A lot of people can be the starting point.
-
i think the perfect partner will be only one in our life....
-
There is a "the one" it's the "current" one, it stays that way unless another "the one" comes along.
-
No, but sometimes its nice to pretend there is and that I will find her someday
