When Will I Meet My Soulmate?
As a teenager, I so desperately wanted to meet my soul mate. I didn’t know that for the most part, teenage boys were only interested in one thing. Having predominantly seen harmful patriarchal relationships in childhood, I did not have healthy relationships modelled to me. At that point, the only relationship guidance I received was from Disney films and rom-coms, which I relished.
According to these films, you meet your other half and you just know right away you’re destined to be together and live happily ever after. The movies suggest you need to overcome a few hilarious and heart-wrenching hurdles first but then, from this point forward, you blissfully drift into a relationship haze, as all the world’s problems disappear. ‘Yes! That is the thing I need! A romantic relationship will solve all my problems and complete me.’ Or so I thought. I was soon to have my heart broken and become disillusioned. But alas, all was not lost.
In this blog, I am here to reassure you that fairy tales really do exist. They just need to be approached with the kind of pragmatic self-awareness and astute wisdom that make for a really boring rom-com. Entertainment value aside, it is possible to both be practical and whimsical in your approach to meeting your soul mate.
Firstly, studying science at university taught me to observe the world clearly and without bias. At the same time, I began meditating and delving into spiritual practice. What I have observed during my spiritual practice is that the world is indeed a magical and mysterious place. I learned through science that it is acceptable to develop hypotheses about the world and its workings, however, it is good to keep an open mind and refrain from drawing conclusions until you have adequate information.
That being said, let’s briefly look at who your soul mate is. Your soul mate is another person with whom you have agreed to rendezvous in this lifetime prior to incarnation. You are called to meet your soul mate by this previously agreed upon arrangement. Not everybody has this desire. If you do wish to meet the one, you probably have a soul mate out there, also wishing to meet you. It is important to be honest with yourself now and question why you want to meet your other half. Is it a calling; a deep longing or knowing from within the depths of your being? Or is it a desperate need to fulfil a sense of lack, complete you or have somebody to make you happy? Do you really want this in your life and have you always wanted it? Or do you think you should want it because society tells you so? It is possible there is all of the aforementioned at play. You manifest your ideal partner, when you can realise the purity of your desire.
So, I am going to tell you now, it is okay to want this! It’s perfectly natural to want another person in your life, a community around you, a family and so on. As humans, we are wired towards social behaviour (most of us anyway). It’s okay to feel you need people in your life; I just highly recommend seeking the right people for you. I give loads of tips on setting boundaries and getting clear on what you want in my book ‘Finding the One – A Practical Guide to Manifesting Your Soul Mate’ so I won’t go into that here or this blog would end up way too long!
In terms of manifestation, it is possible to magnetise the ideal person to you. But if it hasn’t happened so far, we may need to visit possible reasons for this. It is phenomenal how the unconscious beliefs, thoughts and feelings we have can influence the way in which the world responds to us. Sometimes we have beliefs at play that are so ingrained, we are not even aware of them. This can influence the types of people we are drawn to. Humans are amazing in the cues we can attend to. We pick up on subtle nuances that people possess and demonstrate with pinpoint accuracy, whether we are aware of it or not. What you magnetise in others, will highlight your beliefs. If, for example, you believe you’re not good enough, you will magnetise people whose affection you need to work hard for; partners who seem aloof and don’t fully give themselves to you. As you rectify any beliefs that are hindering you, as you get clear on what you want in a relationship, you can affirm that you deserve it and make sure you honour your desires. I have a free worksheet I can send you that can help you become really clear and strengthen your resolve for meeting the one.

I know this because you are reading this blog and you have found this information. As you prepare, you will know that your feelings of joy and bliss come from within. You will practice tools and techniques to enter the present moment and know your completeness. When you fall in love with life, appreciate you and appreciate the beauty of the world around you, your soul mate is near. Your inner alignment and harmony within, indicate you are on the right path with your thinking. You will begin seeing signs in the world of soul mate relationships. When you see others who have what you want, you will respond with feelings of joy. There will be examples everywhere. The world will feel like a blissful romance to you and you will no longer feel a desperate need to have them in your life. When you attract a person out of this state of deep connectedness with the oneness of the universe, you will attract a person who perfectly mirrors the joy that you are and all the desires in your heart. In this state of oneness, that which is meant for you must come to you. When you stop asking ‘When will I meet my soulmate?’ and instead know they are with you now (the only time is now) they will come.
Much love to you friends and much joy on your pathway to finding the one xo
