The One

PHATchik said:
Do you believe in "The One"? I was flipping through channles and found some movie where this guy is debating whether or not "The One" actually exists for each person. One dude said that the concept is basically just a big black hole that people fall into. What do you all think? Is "The One" just this huge idea that people get to make themselves feel better, or is there actually a "The One"?
YOU'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT THAT MOVIE CALLED THE ONE WITH JET LI ARE YOU?

There is no "soul mate" if that is what you mean, a person who was somehow predestined to be your partner in life. Man, being a contractual animal, finds one who meets his/her criteria for partner and decides to oblige himself to the other. Man has decided that monogamous relations are superior to non-monogamous relations, in regards to child-rearing and personal happiness.
 
No, I was not referring to the movie with Jet Li, God forbid.

And I'm not sure anymore what I think. I think that there our future is already mapped out for us. That may pertain to our job, our life, or even that person that may be waiting for us down the road. I kinda like to think that the person that we are meant to be with (if we are meant to be with someone) is simply waiting for us to pop up and say here we are.
 
Well if there is only "One". You've got about a 1 in several million chance of finding that one.

Such a comforting thought hun. Really. :)

Here's a few weird coincidences for you. Only because there's so many of them. My first date with my ex was on my deceased grandmother's b-day. We were very close. My first true love, who I still think about to this day admitted to me that she had slept with another person b4 me. She was crying, telling me the story (faking, I'm sure). She said her boyfriend left her for another girl because this girl would have sex with him all the time and she wouldn't. I live in a town of about 40,000. 6 years later the girl I end up dating and marrying was the girl my first love was talking about. Merely by chance, I find it very odd though. I've seen a lot of very strange coincidences in my life that makes me wonder if something is not going on behind the scenes. My ex's grandmother recently passed away and the tombstone next to her's was a little boys with the same last name as mine. Not a common name. I visited an elderly woman in a nursing home because she asked me to. We had went on Christmas to visit the sick. My grandmother had died 15 years earlier, I was very close to her, but had never been to visit her burial site. One day, I was lying on the sofa at home and a thought popped into my head to go and visit her burial site. A very large cemetary in the heart of Dallas. I walked into the office to ask where her plot was. At this time, there was another family in the office. When I repeated the name of my grandmother, they said that their grandfather had the same last name. Later, I found out that their grandfather and my grandfather were brothers. I had to go there at exactly that time for that to occur and that thought just popped into my head after 15 years? The next thing that happened was shocking. As I drove around looking for my Granny's plot, I eventually found it and when I looked at the first tombstone that I saw it was the old lady's from the nursing home. Her place was reserved. It was in the same plot as my Granny's and one row over and nearly directly across. That happened on August 24. I went back to visit the old lady from time to time. She had Alzheimer's. I prayed for her to die because I knew she was suffering. I didn't know if God existed. (Still don't, being honest). She did die, on August 24, one year from the day that I visited the cemetary. There are several more coincidences that happened that ties in with these but it would take several pages. Crazy stuff. I tell you, there is something out there bigger than us.

Pygmalion has the answer...if "the one"is far fetched !
 
Oh yeah, something about me and tombstones. I went to one of my best friend's mother's funerals last year. As the line of cars was driving to the burial site, the lead car made a wrong turn. Everyone got out to try and figure out where to go. My friend pointed straight ahead and said, "Look." The tombstone directly in front of us had the same last name as mine. Again, not a common name.
 
My parents: married 28 years
Seen emotional expression....but never seen em fight.
When not at work, usually hanging out together, sometimes doing their own thing in different corners of the house.
"Happy couple"
Mom's parents: married 60 years-Always together
Dad's parents: married 65 years-Always together

All these couples in my life are very happy. After I got older....I could see it in their eyes even.....no matter how old they were, they still look at each other with genuine admiration, along with a deeper connection.

Myself, been with same person last 5 years, married 3.
Never argue. There's things each may wish the other didnt do quite so often, but it's not that big of a deal.
(We're pretty considerate of each other anyway)
So,for me. Yes.
