The One.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have been thinking about the concept of 'the one' a lot lately. I thought I would see what you guys think about it.
How does a person ultimately know that someone is 'the one' for them? Or for some of you guys and girls, how did you know the person you are with was the one for you?

How does a person ultimately know anything?
Don't cry, don't regret and don't blame
Weak find the whip, willing find freedom
Towards the sun, carry your name
In warm hands you are given
Ask the wind for the way
Uncertainty's gone, your path will unravel
Accept all as it is and do not blame
God or the Devil

Whittling it down is a process.
You will reject or miss some because they are:
- too old
- too young
- unattractive to you / you don't think of them "that way"
- not attracted to you / they don't think of you "that way"
- incompatible with you in personality, goals, intelligence, etc.
- a**holes
- not in the right place at the right time so you never meet
- too far away even if you DO meet
- etc, etc., etc.
Even so, there are dozens, maybe hundreds you could be happy spending your life with.
From this group, "the one" is the person you decide to invest in a relationship with.
I suppose if you look hard enough and take all the time in the world, you can always find someone better than the one you are with ... but at some point, you have to say "this is who I want" and stop looking.

If you believe in soul mates then you probably believe in 'the one'
If you dont, like me, then how do you know this person is the right person to marry.. well are you both in a decent financial situation? housing situation? Fight alot? Both want/not want kids? See her/him in your future?
If everything is stable and you feel really comfortable with each other AND you've been dating at least two years and don't feel the need to spread the seed then you just may be ready to commit.
Please though take vows seriously. No one seems to anymore.

I was thinking of the one
Will I find before death come?
How I ultimately know?
Will the hatred in us grow?
(Guitar solo)Don't cry, don't regret and don't blame
Weak find the whip, willing find freedom
Towards the sun, carry your name
In warm hands you are given
Ask the wind for the way
Uncertainty's gone, your path will unravel
Accept all as it is and do not blame

Awful lot of divorced former 'soul-mates' out there....
"The One"? No such. Fantasy propagated by Disney, soap operas and Wedding industry.Second thoughts can generally be amended with judicious action; injudicious actions can seldom be recovered with second thoughts.

lol yeah esp. the part where he throws the guy across the room and then runs fast and kicks him. Originally Posted by Illusional
