My Future Husband Won't Be My Soulmate

Because My Soulmate is My Best Friend

My Future Husband Won't Be My Soulmate

Many people spend their younger years searching for a soulmate. The person they are "made" to spend the rest of their life with. Throughout the years, people find out which qualities they are looking for in who their supposed soulmate is. But what if your soulmate isn't the person you're supposed to marry?

My soulmate and I are picky

I like to claim that I'm the less pickier of the two of us, but when it comes to certain things I can be pickier. I, nor my family, could have ever imagined that there was someone who walks this Earth who has just as unattainable high standards as I do.

My soulmate and I have goals

With the exceptionally high standards that we hold for the people who enter our lives, we have the same high standards for ourselves, each other and our future. Everyone needs someone who wants to achieve just as much, and get the absolute most out of life as they do. We motivate each other, and help each other prosper.

My soulmate and I love to travel

I can't say that we go more than a couple weeks before one of us is sending pics of a place in this gorgeous world of ours, accompanied with the price of a plane ticket, hotel, and activities that we would do. We don't necessarily care where we go, because our bucket list of places probably includes far more places than we will ever be able to visit while in our lifetime, but we both know that we will take on the world together.

My soulmate and I are partners in crime

I'd say that we keep each other out of trouble, but that's not entirely true. We have been in some of the most awkward, uncomfortable and absolutely scary situations while together. Whether we are being chased down and I'm being screamed at to call 911, or we're witnessing half the NYPD bust through a hotel room just a few doors down there is nobody else I'd rather experience the craziness with that we do.

My soulmate is my best friend

For the past 12 years we have gone through a whirlwind of changes and growing up. We have taught each other a lot, and helped each other through some of the hardest decisions. We're a text, a snapchat, a phone call away from the best advice, someone who will listen, and someone who will absolutely tell the other that they were in the wrong. We take on each day not caring at how quickly people, especially guys, want to enter our lives, because we know they will exit just as quickly as they came in. We take on each day motivating each other to be a better person, and making sure both of us know how much we value the friendship we have.

My best friend and I may be completely different people some days, but we never fail to look at each other and know what the other is thinking. There is never a dull moment when we're together, and it never fails that one of us laughs so hard we cry. Some people may go through the life they have wondering when they will find their Mr./Mrs. Right, the person they will marry and have children with, but for me I know that no matter what happens to me in my lifetime, my best friend has already solidified her spot as my soulmate, because nobody knows me better than she does.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
