My husband and I were born 6000 km away from me, and we both got moved across the globe by our parents as children, but in opposite directions. We fell in love during the 6 month period we happened to be in the same place, meeting basically in that one chaotic moment we were in the same place, really, because we both agree with our very different interests we would never have met otherwise. And despite this, when we got talking, we realized we both were super interested in China as teenagers, had done beginner courses in Mandarin at about the same time, and ironically had distant ancestors from Mongolia, even though we both basically look white. We had a lot of other random things in common too, which was amazing seeing gender and culture should be dividing us. So I secretly kind of think we might have had a past life in China (which I thought anyway, since I had an obsession with it in early childhood) and we met again this way in Europe, even though he is from Russia and I grew up in India.
My husband and I met in a taxi, I was driving, he was mouldy drunk lol. I bumped into him a few days later and he was all apologies. Since drunk people were a large part of my job I wasn’t remotely worried about that. Anyway we sat and chatted, decided to go for lunch and arranged to meet the next day. We’ve been together now for 27 years and we have a grown up son. There was no huge passion, we just both realised we couldn’t live without each other so we moved in together. We managed to get married in the middle of all this too.
Don’t know. Just felt this weird pull and like this unexplained feeling in my chest. Like longing for someone or the person is very familiar to me. Like I’ve known him a long time or like he’s somehow like me but he’s a stranger at the same time. He didn’t turn out to be my soulmate though. I believe it was just my body telling me somehow that he will play an important role in my life and I will get close to him unlike any person before him. That feeling used to be so strong when I met him and I get that feeling when I felt like I needed to break things off with him. Like I’m not supposed to or that I’m supposed to be with this person.
Just realized these feelings are not realistic and what I felt was perhaps very random or coincidence or really had no significant meaning
I’ve met this guy and realized we have the same interests, disturbingly similar past, soon we found out that we have the same scars on the same spots on our bodies, weird as hell. Also he’s a few years younger than me and the personality was so similar to mine at the same age that it was creepy at times. It was like someone put a mirror in front of me but in the mirror I had a beard.
Noticing that we have basically the same personality made us realize that the things that annoy us in each other… are the traits we have ourselves. It helped us grow as people really fast. We are best friends now <3
