@platoforgirls: The philosophical problem of soulmates, which make you dependent on chance for your happiness, and how Plato created an expression of love that removes chance from the equation 👆❤️🔥🪞🪽 in today’s discussion on the many faces of Eros, Martha Nussbaum mediates Socrates and Aristophanes and their respective speeches in the Symposium #philosophy #greekphilosophy #soulmate #eros
Who was the first male to believe that soulmates have to be romantically involved partners? I believe soulmates can come in many different forms.

I tend to believe in soul mates according to this post. 1) because I’ve been suffering like a MOTHERFUCKER and 2) Carrie Bradshaw would be the last person I’d consider for real dating advice 😂 If it wasn’t meant to be, it wasn’t meant to be. I’d rather make things work in the cab I get into than run around looking for just the right cab.

Soulmates don’t exist. More and more people are ending up alone and that number will keep on rising. So many people who haven’t even had their first kiss

could this Aristofan / Socrates dichotomy parallel a gender preference in the perception and understanding of love?

I’ve spent years thinking about this. Soulmates are not romantic if you try to think about it mechanically. If we’re destined to be together because of fate or whatever then how is that different from living in a simulation? If we’re together because fate wills it, then it’s least romantic outcome. Your decisions are not truly your own and your actions inevitably lead you to the right person at the right time. It’s not a choice of you, but a fixed path. But if we have free will, we can’t be destined for anything ergo soulmates. So my belief is that someone who chooses you everytime is better than a soulmate, because they don’t simply do it because they think it’s meant to be, but because they want it to be.

soulmates are not a matter of ownership. they are supposed to come to you naturally. if they decide not to, that is their choice. because a soulmate who doesn't choose you of their own will is not a soulmate

If your soulmate doesn't like you, maybe reassess your definition of the word soulmate?🤣😭

All of these discussions are so stupid because we act as if 1) soulmates are even real and 2) if they are we somehow understand them and how the nature of love and souls work.

There are soulmates, but they don't exist for everyone, nor do they always reincarnate at the same time, exist in the same dimension, or take the same form. Most times, they end up watching over you and loving you from afar. So never bank on soulmate love finding you in this life; instead, love greatly and deeply in whatever pulls at your core, that is your soul's calling.

I’ve always thought the concept of soulmates to be nonsense. All it takes is for two people to grab on to one another & not let go. There does not need to be any more of a connection than that commitment. Change my mind. 🤷♂️
