7 Signs that you've met your soulmate

There is a belief that the soul was split into two, that we as individuals incarnate as half of a soul on this earth. Our mission should we choose it is to find that other half of ourselves.With 7 billion people on the planet, finding your soulmate is like finding a needle in the mothership of all haystacks! If you have a feeling someone is your soulmate most likely they are. However for those who are unsure (as I once was), here are some good indicators;

1. You have eerily similar personality traits (makes sense if this other person is supposed to be the other half of your soul). The complete soul has a unique identity therefore both soulmates (or twin flames) will possess this underlying blueprint. 
2. You share the same likes/dislikes. It was no surprise that both me and my soulmate don't watch television, have short attention spans, like the same foods, have the same zaney sense of humour, enjoy lounging at home for days on end and have a penchant for all things luxurious.
3. You can read each others mind! Not kidding. People often regard me as "hard to read". This wasn't the case for my soulmate. We both discovered that we had psychic powers and were able to verbalise random thoughts circling in each other's heads! Spooky!
4. They know everything about you and it doesn't put them off. Try hiding things from someone with laser vision. That's what it's like to be with a soulmate. You feel mentally and emotionally naked around them.
5. You never feel "lonely" in their company. You feel completely at home with them.
6. The relationship progresses at warp speed. Soulmate connections are intense, dramatic, confusing and life altering. It's a non stop roller coaster of ups and downs. The connection will be so intense that you will vacillate between declaring undying love to wishing you'd never clapped eyes on them.
7. They challenge you to become a better person. Be prepared to see the worst sides of yourself being projected at you. If you haven't fully dealt with your emotional baggage you're in for a real shock! Your soulmate may be your very best friend but they also know which buttons to push. On the upside, your soulmate can shed light on your blind spots, bad habits and fears (which can be refreshing and annoying at the same time).

Contrary to belief, soulmates are not often immediately attracted to each other! Quite the opposite. I found myself having a strong dislike for my soulmate (and vice versa) until we got to know each other better. Soulmate connections are not for the faint hearted, they will test you and elude you. However if both sides are prepared to put in the work, it can become the most satisfying and loving relationship of your life.
