I know this is pretty spiritual **** but I do believe in the whole elastic band theory, which is why long distance relationships never work and you get that gutting feeling when you haven't seen them in a long time - as if the elastic band is breaking.

Hmmm that's just early-stage love stuff though? As you get properly into the guts of loving someone it's not that simple. I
do still sometimes get butterflies randomly with my wife but it's not a
constant feeling... how would someone live like that?
Anyway, yeah, I also think that's being "in love" and not necessarily the same thing as a "soul-mate". I consider me and my wife to be both and feel lucky to have that. I do know couples who are very very much in love who I wouldn't think are "soul mates" at all.
