Being young in our twenties, love seems to be one of those topics of conversation that we often put aside, especially for us guys. Love is just one of those things that we don't try to harp on too much and leave for a later time when we grasp a better understanding of what "love" is. However, it's only a matter of time until that one person comes along and shows us what that word truly means. Some people like to think that we are destined to be with that one special person, often described as our "soul mate." But how do you know when you have met your soul mate you ask? Well guys, here are the 10 signs to look out for when you think you have finally found the one.
10. You make the perfect team.
You two are the ultimate dynamic duo. You are each other's partner in crime and an adventure always awaits whenever you're in each other's presence. No matter where you go or no matter what happens, you know everything will be okay because you have each other.
9. You bring out the best in each other.
On both good days and bad, you are always a better person because of your significant other. They drive you insane and challenge you in the best ways possible and make you discover so much more about yourself that you never knew before. Even your worst versions of yourself, they still love you just as much, and let's face it, we can all go off the deep end from time to time, so that means something.
8. They support you and your dreams.
Your significant other will be your biggest fan. They will always be the one leading your fan army and cheer the loudest at all your games, drive hundreds of miles just to see you play at your latest gig, or try to buy as many tickets as possible to see you kill it on stage. Every step of the way, they will be there for you, even if other people are tearing you down. No matter what other people think, they are beyond proud to have you, and they want everyone to know it.
7. You're always on the same wavelength.
You could be sitting right next to each other or miles apart and will always be on the same wavelength as your partner. Whether you're in the mood to order the same type of take-out or watch the same movie, you understand each other like no other person does. Knowing each other inside and out is an amazing feeling because you will always have that person who knows you the best.
6. They will fight for you and you will fight for them.
There will be times when a relationship hits a bit of a rough patch and there's always the struggle of whether to walk away or keep trying. Someone who is your soul mate will want you to fight for them and vice versa. This person means the world to you, so don't let them go.
5. Your family is their family
Family is important and you want the person who means the most to you to be close with your family too. It's the best feeling knowing how well your partner blends in with your family as well as knowing how much your family approves of who you who are with. Once you see how much your partner is bonding with your family, it's reassuring knowing that you see potential of them being an even bigger part of your family in the future.
4. You're completely comfortable in their presence.
Let's face it, there's never a dull moment when you two are together. You and your partner are a bunch of goofballs and never stop laughing when you're together. You have your own inside jokes and never take anything too seriously. You enjoy each others company and truly feel like you can be yourselves 100 percent of the time. By never having a wall up, you and your significant other can even make fun of each other without the other getting too offended.
3. Undeniable chemistry
The chemistry is unreal when you two are together. There were sparks ever since your first kiss. Even if it wasn't necessarily love at first sight, you can't take your eyes off each other now. A single look at your partner or a touch is enough to feel the connection of love between the two of you. No matter how much time has passed, you still find yourselves in the honeymoon phase.
2. You have the same values/morals.
You and your partner have the same morals or values, whether that be your views on marriage or raising a family or just ways of thinking in what is considered to be the important things in life. You two are always on the same page with such beliefs, which will help guide you into an even better future.
1. You're best friends.
You two may be dating and in love, but you're each other's best friend too, which is even better. You would never know where you would be without them and they just make your life a whole lot better. By being in love with your best friend, you always have your favorite person by your side through all of life's crazy moments, and you couldn't imagine sharing those moments with anyone else. Through good and bad, your best friend always knows how to make you smile and knows you like an open book.
By having a soul mate, you always look for a piece of them wherever you go, because you know deep down, that this person is for you. You realize that home is not necessarily a place but in a person. They are your favorite chapter in the story of your life and every answer to every question you ever have always leads back to them. Or maybe you haven't found your soul mate yet -- that's okay. On the other hand, maybe you have and just never realized it before. Sometimes it could be scary making this realization because you know in your heart that this person is for you and that this is it, but don't be scared or nervous. Here's your chance to make a move. Don't wait for life to just happen. Make the initiative and let them know how you feel. You never know, the greatest adventure of your life could happen.
