Soulmate!! Where? Point which way!!

I am an Aqua girl, well, woman, 35 now, she wails. I was a late starter with men, and I kept myself for my husband.I am a strong believer in destiny, even more so after the last chaotic three years! I have been on a spiritual quest with myself, soul searching kinda stuff.I think that I am at the time of life, where I need to feel safe, secure.Due to my sign, I have 'gone it alone' over the past few years and I have had my space, a time of reflection, digging out the old skeletons, confronting them, and then packing them away for good. Yet still, after solving many problems and questions within myself, there still is an empty space. My asrological forecast for this month saw me meeting my soulmate, getting married. I don't look for love, I never have. It comes when you least expect it, like a bolt out of the blue, it hits you. I haven't felt like that for quite a while and I still sit here now, waiting for my soulmate to accidentally knock on my door. I still cannot believe that I practice to all of my friends on the myths of 'looking for love', yet now, and I find myself doing the same thing. And if I did happen to meet my soulmate, which is very unlikely, as I am a hermit at the moment, hardly leaving the house. If I did however, would it last forever? Maybe I am just going through the mid life crisis thing. Any advice would be appreciated, a very confused Aqua (woman)

an aquarius hardly leaving the house? we have an emergency here.

Shelby,

It might last forever or the walls could come tumbling down upon whatever relationship you might begin. Love is not a sure thing. Perhaps that is why so many Aquarians sidestep or skirt around the issue for such a long time. I don't know what to say other than sometimes life is a bowl of cherries and other times it can be the pits. One thing is for sure. Life is short, so live it while you can.
I had come across a soulmate years ago. For sure it was the most comfortable and romantic of any interludes I had ever had. The woman was a Gemini and I fell hopelessly in love with her (she did'nt believe in love). We had so much in common and the conversation was always stimulating. She had a boyfriend but I was willing to try and convince her that I was the better man for her. That was'nt the problem. She later told me her deep dark secret that she was a lipstick lesbian (looks and acts heterosexual but is really into the same sex). That crushed me hardest but my love still remained very strong for her. We maintained a decent friendship for quite some time. I saw her about a year ago and that soulmate thing was still alive and well. There is some kind of bond between us that is really difficult to describe. It's a mental thing. You know, where you think so much alike that it's almost like you are with a part of yourself.
Soulmates are wonderful. But like the song goes "You can't always get what you want, but sometimes you get what you need".
Sorry I could'nt help you out any better. Take care and for goodness sake go out and smell the roses.
Here's to the soulmates.

thanx for that Erick 😉

You know, it couldn't help to look at your marriage in a different light, too. I always find that everything is worth taking a second look at, and then a third and a fourth, and that nothing is unsolvable. Personally, all I have to do is to go out and look (there's a key phrase in there, which echoes Erick's post) and there will be people who care. Friendships are just as important as romances, and everyone has doubts, lonlinesses, and questions that no amount of soul searching can oust. Sometimes the thing you have the hardest time finding is right under your nose!
