Photomanip - this is just downright scary!

My future wife may hurt me when I discover she slept with someone else, but in essence, I'd most likely (blame myself), and forgive her, I wouldn't stop loving her either. And on top of that, I'd feel sorry for the other guy, and love him too, as if he were my best friend who never betrayed me. Sure it'd be hard.

But the 'unconditional love' scenario you put forward doesn't sound like it. It sounds like stupidity.

What I was trying to drive at was that somewhere out there, there always exists someone special - someone who mirrors your likes and dislikes, who understands you on many different levels, whom you can form an affinity almost effortlessly with. In short, a person who's essentially another you, whom you needn't bend over backwards to conform to - someone who wouldn't grumble if you decided to, for instance, go out to watch a soccer match, but want to go to the soccer match as well, and not because they're just trying to make you happy, but because they're soccer fans, too.

I never meant that effort would be unecessary to make a relationship with such a person work. 'Almost effortlessly forming an affinity' with this person is one thing, but making this existing affinity blossom into full-fledged love and maintaining it through loyalty and commitment is, of course, paramount. But where this person is concerned, maintaining loyalty and commitment to the relationship will never, ever seem tedious or chore-like - you'd whole-heartedly enjoy every second of doing so, and the love that blooms from such effort would be an extremely intense one that lasts and lasts. Your soulmate would be the person whom you would always want to spend time with - not because you're trying to please them, but because you truly wish to be with them. The same, of course, would also apply for them.

Get my drift?

Now not only do I feel a weird sense of "otherness", but I realize that
OMG, EVERYONE IS OLDER THAN ME. Cue insecruity! Am I young and immature
and completely out of the loop about what adults are like? Waaaah!

Truthfully, I don't think gender or age matters when it comes to forums as long as you can type clearly and express your thoughts. I've meet fans of series that are a decade younger or older than me and it never bothered me because we all had a common connection in that we liked a series and could talk about it. LOL...I joined this forum not because there is a lack of girls (though it be cool if there were more girls), but this was a place where I could express and hear the thoughts of people from a series I truly enjoy.

But damn...all this talk about soulmates and what not makes me feel kinda naive and immature compared to everyone else.
