What happens when you meet your soulmate? How is it different from all the other relationships you’ve had?
Many people have fairy-tale fantasies about what a soulmate is and how to find it. They expect normal humans to have the ability to read minds and the concept that conflict will never occur. Some people don’t believe in soulmates at all.
Soulmate relationships don’t happen by magic, but they feel like magic at first.
When you meet your soulmate, your life will change forever and you will experience a deep, soul-fulfilling love that will last a lifetime. This kind of love will change you forever.
Here are 11 unusual things that happen when you finally find your lifelong soulmate.
1. You are loved for who you are.
You don’t have to change for your soulmate, but you can give each other some consideration, especially as you grow together over time.
You may have experienced heartache trying to please your partner. You may have felt that no matter what form it took, it wasn’t enough. You may feel that you are unloved in some way.
This experience will not happen with your soulmate because your soulmate will get you. He will love you because of your quirks and flaws, not because of them. He will understand your wounds and triggers and help you live your best self.
2. You will have more freedom.
Devoting yourself to one person frees you up in all other areas of your life. You will have more time and energy to create and realize your dreams and goals in other areas of your life.
This may seem contradictory, but it’s true.
The freedom to know your bond with your ideal partner and find a way to overcome challenges together allows you to respect each other’s strengths and become better together.
No more wasting your time and energy wondering if he’s there or if you’ll ever find him. Instead, he will be free to be who he is and live his life the way he wants, knowing that his soulmate will be by his side no matter what.
3. I feel a deep connection.
The feeling that someone truly understands you is a feeling that only a soulmate can bring. I no longer feel like a misfit or an outsider.
The love between two people gives you a solid foundation to stand up for yourself in other areas of life. A soulmate connection acts as a safe harbor through any storm.
There is a pervasive feeling in the world of being disconnected and living our lives on meaningless autopilot. People who are lonely and isolated, or who are in unfulfilling relationships, feel a sense of loss.
When you meet your soulmate, you will no longer feel lost or on autopilot. You feel alive and present in your life.
Your soul has a deep desire to feel connected to yourself and to someone else. Your soulmate gives you such a deep connection that it is a never-ending well of joy and happiness.
4. You will be inspired to be the best version of yourself.
In a soulmate relationship, you work together to achieve a specific life purpose. Support each other to become better people.
Your soulmate sees the best in you and wants you to be the best version of yourself. Your soulmate will support you in stepping into that vision.
You don’t have to push each other to change, but you can inspire each other to grow. With your soulmate by your side, you will evolve to live your highest and best self.
5. You can heal your past.
A soulmate’s love is unconditional. You will be loved for every part of you, the good, the bad and the ugly. This is a very soothing experience.
You can develop the skills to keep the door to intimacy open even when you make mistakes, get provoked, and work through conflicts.
When you are with your soulmate, you will have many opportunities to heal your wounds together. By letting go of hurt and frustration from past relationships, you will be able to love yourself and your soulmate more deeply.
6. You will experience real magic.
You and your soulmate speak your truth. Don’t be shy or close your heart. Each of you should take a risk and speak your mind.
Your soulmate will not be offended or disgusted. He will be willing to go out of his way to make you happy. He will also want to share with you what he is thinking and feeling.
True emotional intimacy occurs when you show up honestly to each other.
When you’re with your soulmate, you don’t have to worry about saying and doing everything perfectly.
7. Learn how to embrace conflict.
Conflict can lead to a deeper connection between couples.
It’s best to deal with problems as they arise, because unaddressed conflicts (from tiny little ones to very big ones) can create land mines in relationships.
Soulmates will strive to overcome their differences in order to love each other more deeply.
In a soulmate relationship, there is no fear of conflict or avoidance of conflict. True love requires no sacrifice. But just because you’re with your soulmate doesn’t mean disagreements won’t happen.
Conflict is inevitable, but with soulmates, conflict is an opportunity to grow stronger together.
8. Stop making excuses.
What happens when you meet your soulmate is that you don’t make excuses. Instead, you step up and take responsibility. By admitting your mistakes and bad behavior, you will work to repair the relationship.
The love of your soulmate allows you to have compassion for yourself. You will allow yourself to be vulnerable and accept the limitations of being human.
Excusing or blaming others for your mistakes creates conflict and disconnection. This will feel so wrong to your body and soul that you will put your ego aside and do what you can to reconnect.
Your soulmate doesn’t expect you to be perfect, but he or she will encourage you to take responsibility instead of holding you accountable.
9. You are on the same team.
When you have your soulmate by your side, you’ll know you’ll always have someone on your side.
We may not agree on everything. Not all music tastes and preferences are the same. But I will share what is important. You will both value the same things, have similar goals in life, and a shared vision of what you want for each other.
You and your soulmate may have different strategies to achieve a common goal, but you respect each other’s differences and respect each other’s strengths.
With your soulmate, you will experience the power of being part of a team for life.
10. Your journey will finally have meaning.
Love finally makes sense. The setbacks and heartbreaks you experienced along the way suddenly manifest as learning experiences where you had to open your heart to accept your loved one.
You will be able to let go of anger and resentment from past experiences and be more forgiving towards yourself and others. You will stop criticizing yourself harshly for mistakes you made in the past.
When you are with your soulmate, a feeling of inner peace washes over you. From this new perspective, the world will seem like a different place filled with blessings.
11. Roots and wings will form.
What happens when you meet your soulmate is that you feel firmly grounded on Mother Earth, and at the same time you want to fly away. Your soulmate will give you the feeling of having roots and wings.
When you share your life with people who understand you and accept you for who you are, you’ll feel grounded and supported. Your wings will be born as you experience exciting love!
Your soulmate will give you the security of knowing you are loved and the freedom to grow and become who you want to be.
