About Soulmates and the concept of having the ‘love of your life’

I see many people fixated on the idea that they have met or will meet a particular individual who is the love of their life and heaven sent Soulmate.

They think after this person, there is no one else.

NOPE!
I know you think that Gbenga, who you met in 100 level, is your forever soulmate, or you feel that Chidinma, who you met in primary school, is the love of your life.

While this may be true, I’m here to tell you that this concept is whatever you allow yourself to believe.
Many people get stuck in unhealthy situations or refuse to move on after a break up.

Some even move on but continuously compare their partners with their proclaimed ‘soulmate’ which prevents them from enjoying the moment .
You see the thing is, people won’t ever be the same, likewise relationships.

You cannot expect sameness in your relationships, the highest you can get are similarities.

So, allow yourself to experience who you are with without making references and comparisons.
People say you should either marry who you love or love who you marry.

I say do both. The latter is very important and it goes to show that love is a choice.

If you’ve chosen to be with someone, then you should love them fully without holding back or wishing for different.
All I’m saying is ; if you can love once, you can love again.

Free yourself from the shackles of the belief that your soulmate is only one person and you can’t love another.

That should only be for positive situations and not what you use to chain yourself in bad situations.
