I didn't actually mean that you'd have to end up with all your soul mates or whatever. You can be with just one but I always believed several people that perfect person for you. Doesn't mean you have to get into a relationship with them. Does that make sense?

I understood what you meant previously. I was just adding to the discussion. Everything I've wanted is in the person I'm with now.I couldn't ask for more

I'm pretty sure the number of 1st-loves that blossom into lifelong happy relationships happens approximately never Emphasis on the word HAPPY. Maybe we've got 2 (er, 4) members here who will defy that circumstance but I doubt it. That's not how human life works. But good luck (seriously - I suppose it may actually be possible). In any case, definitely enjoy it while it lasts.

There was a study conducted recently that shows people that have found true happy love left their current partners to be with that person.

My sister is still with her first boyfriend and she was his first proper girlfriend too.
They've been together for 16 years & married for 11 and have 2 kids.
Make of that what you will.

My parents were each other's first serious relationship and they've been married for 30 years and together for 2 years before that.

Same with my parents. And their parents too. My parents have been together over 30 yes and my grandparents for 71 (on mydads side.)

Me too. Think it's 27 years of marriage for them now, they met when they were 17. 58 this year
