We all have a deep expectation of meeting the "soul mate" who shares our hearts and minds, and walks side by side.
How can you tell if that person is the irreplaceable "only" in your life journey?
Lisa finishes an interview, her face a little tired but she can't hide her anticipation, and you meet her in a café.
Without asking too much, you just silently hand over a cup of hot chocolate, and she smiles gratefully, as if to say:
You know me.
This tacit understanding goes beyond the framework of daily conversation and becomes a kind of companionship and support that does not need to be expressed.
Jack and Amy, who are in a different place, can sense each other with the radar of their minds, although they rely on video calls to maintain their relationship.
Once, when Jack was frustrated at work and was depressed but didn't confide in Amy, when Amy appeared in front of the screen and used their favorite old songs to convey comfort and encouragement, Jack was instantly relieved, knowing that no matter when and where, Amy could always accurately capture his mood swings and give him the right amount of comfort.
These examples vividly illustrate the first trait of a soulmate:
There is no need for redundant verbal communication, and only subtle interaction and induction can deeply understand the other person's state of mind.
You're a staunch eco-vegetarian and your friend Robert agrees with this lifestyle, and whenever you get together, he's always kind to recommend restaurants that are both delicious and in line with your diet.
Your friendship is strengthened by participating in beach clean-ups, discussing ways to reduce plastic consumption in your lives, and sharing experiences based on shared beliefs.
Retired couple George and Maria, who came together with a shared dream of traveling, decided to sell their property, buy a small boat, and embark on an adventure around the world as they entered their old age.
In the face of the confusion and anxiety of the people around them, they do not need to explain too much, they only need to stare at the light of dreams in each other's eyes, and they can strengthen their faith, because they know each other that this is the way of life they yearn for, and it is the common pursuit of freedom and exploration.
These examples vividly outline the second characteristic of a soulmate:
There is no need to argue your choice, because the other party already understands and shares the same values and lifestyle.
Your colleague Sara is determined to go back to school for her master's degree, and her boyfriend Daniel doesn't hesitate to give her full support.
Not only did he take on more family responsibilities, but he also stayed up late with Sara to study, study professional literature together, and discuss academic issues.
When Sarah's dissertation won the award, they embraced each other fondly, ecstatic at each other's growth and accomplishments.
Such a partner is not only a partner in life, but also a mentor and spiritual pillar on each other's life path, inspiring each other to continue to climb new heights and realize self-worth.
This is the third sign of a soulmate:
Grow together without external spurs, and both parties provide endless motivation and selfless support for each other to become a better version of themselves.
When you meet your soul mate, you will experience telepathy without words, values resonance without justification, and a process of growing together without spurring.
These three distinct signs, like a map carefully drawn by fate, quietly reveal that person is an irreplaceable and unique existence in your life.
Once you are lucky enough to meet such a precious soul mate, you must cherish this fate, spend the ups and downs of life together, and share the ups and downs of life, because the encounter with your soul mate is undoubtedly the most beautiful gift that life gives us.
