A question asked by many. The ideal of soul mates goes back to the days of Greek mythology and Zeus, who split all of the humans in half leaving them to search for their other half to complete each other. Theoretically, humans during this time had four legs, four arms, and two heads. Although researching Greek mythology, I have never seen pictures or drawings of humans with this configuration and many Greek statues have no arms. Generally speaking, there is a misconception about the meaning or the ideal of a soul mate. I find that most people think of a soul mate as their ideal partner, love, or the perfect one for them. The term soul mate is defined by many people very differently. One soul mate may have a different purpose in our life than another but typically it is a feeling of deep and natural affinity, intimacy, love, sexuality and/or compatibility. You may feel all of these or any combination toward someone.
