I'm not sure what to draw [if anything] out of it. I don't harp on it, it's just something that will just randomly pop in my thoughts.
Has anyone else ever done this, or even talked about it with their SO/spouse ?

This is interesting Keyshawn . . . I have known alot of people, including myself once or twice who wondered about this, although i met my husband at a young age, so i didn't have a whole lot of time to ponder it . . .
But i think many people hold this concept close to them . . . that although the world is a big and lonely place sometimes, there is someone out there, thinking of you that you haven't met yet . . .
I think in general this brings up the idea that there is "one special person" that everyone is supposed to be with . . . it seems ingrained in our culture . . . I think for many, it's comforting to think that your future soulmate is somewhere *right now*, maybe brushing their teeth or getting their heart broken for the first time . . . even tho you won't meet for years, that maybe They too are thinking about their future spouse . . . i think it helps people to feel connected and that there is a happy destiny waiting in the future . . . I don't know if i believe in destiny . . . but the idea of destiny seems comforting in many ways . . .
