I Want to Find My Soulmate

Someone who will listen, someone who is patient, someone who does not judge me and someone who makes me feel important to them....I would like that someday but I get the feeling that I have too many flaws for someone that great.

Soulmate is a myth. You create in your mind that mate, which is exactly what you did by listing down the requisites of that person to fit into.🤓 Good luck. 🙄Wishful thinking. 😨

I disagree. I think it's good to be mindful and even list what you desire in a person. I also think one should revisit that list often for additions and revisions. It doesn't have to be written in stone. If nothing else, it allows us to watch our growth and realize that while perfection is unattainable, our happiness is.
I also believe that soulmates can be many or few and are not always a life partner.

I don't believe in soulmates either lol...I just posted it in this group because it seemed to be the closest group to the sort of thing I wanted to post ...Those few things I listed were not "perfect"...Perfect would include other things and I am not uptight about things such as looks (and so on). Asking for patience, to not be judged and for someone who will make me feel important at times is not asking for perfection. I do not mean all the time, just sometimes I want to feel important and I want to know that at crucial times, I will eventually be able to have someone to listen to me...even if it takes time for the other person to calm down first. I mean this is basically just asking for respect.
