It's my belief that the mere number of people on planet earth allows for any one person to have at least a few perfect matches. The determining factors in who matches who are mainly location and social status. Technology allows those lines to be blurred a little, but that's not the point. The point is this: One should not be so disheartened to not have a signifigant other or to have just lost one, because there are so many other options for you if you put any effort into it.

This is also not to take away from the sensation of having a 'soulmate' but to bring light to the fact that favoritism comes into play with such relationships.

I've found my perfect match. We've known eachother for 9 years. We lived in the same town and went to the same school. I could have easily met someone else somewhere along the line, but I've latched on and I cannot be swayed. I'm content and very happy.

These are the facts according to me. 6,000,000,000+ people in the world. Assuming there is 1 perfect match for each person, the statistical chances of those two people meeting at some point are quite close to impossible given the amount of people the average person actually takes the time to get to know in his or her lifetime (let's assume you will take the time to know about 200 people from birth to death). However, let's not deny that there are several euphorically happy couples prancing about out there.

Taking into consideration that there are a lot more than 6 billion people in the world, that means 4 out of every 100million people are hooked up. That means there are about 240 true soul mate couples in the WHOLE world, and that's being generous. To that I say: BULLSHIT!

If you think you have found your true partner and that it was meant to be, you're being awfully selfish and egotistical. You're denying more than 99.999996% of the world their chance at true love because the LAW OF AVERAGES has all ready been used up! I'm not trying to be cruel here, I'm just laying down some scientific logic here.

Oh yeah.. I love my little Litespeed.
