cannot strive to find that Special Someone to be our soul mate. Have you found yours? Here are 8 Signs of a Soul Mate:
1. Your Soul Mate Accepts You For Who You Are
A major problem that dooms a lot of relationships is the notion that the couple need to change each other. This could include anything from insisting that the Significant Other make different fashion choices to demanding major personality changes. Whether it is preferring jeans over tight-fitting dresses or having the personality of introvert rather than a social butterfly, a true soul mate would never ask you to change. In fact, they fully embrace who you are.

3. Your Soul Mate Is Willing to Agree to Disagree
There is no such thing as a relationship in which the couple agree on everything 100% of the time. You might hold a very strong position on a particular issue while your partner takes a completely opposition view. But rather than letting these differences of opinion come between the relationship and create perpetual tension, a real soul mate understands that, ultimately, sometimes it is best to just accept that there will not always be agreement. As Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers once sang, “You like to-may-toes, I like to-mah-toes.”
