What is the difference between loving someone and loving your soulmate

For those of you who have already found your soulmate, I'm sure before her/him you loved someone else. So what is the difference? I'm going through my second breakup and it sucks more than my first because I actually really love this guy. From the first time we met, I felt like we were twins. Sometimes it would be awkward at how similar we were. I think the only thing setting us apart is how we're at different stages in life right now. I'm like 5 yrs younger than him so I'm barely starting to get my career and independence on while he is pretty much set now. Although I consider myself independent minded, I still feel like a baby next to him. I honestly feel like I won't find someone else like him where we feel like twins, like my other half. He's like the guy version of me and vise versa. I don't know if loving more than once is possible cause I've only loved once so far but it seems like you can except, idk if I'll find someone to love like he's my "twin" or soulmate. You only have one soulmate so idk what to look forward to.

    Not really a difference, just degrees of love I guess.

    Soul mate is just a word for someone you love silly. There's no difference, you just love them and usually end up marrying them. It's basically true love.

    I would assume the only difference is your perception of it.

  • Soul mate is a made up concept by people who don't want to accept that all you can truly have is yourself.

    The idea of a soulmate brings to mind two things I don't believe in souls and destiny

    I've had 3 "soul mates" in life, each superseding the former in my heart and mind. I doubt that you can differentiate between any true loves, as each is different and deeply felt at the time.
    Your love for this guy will certainly be replaced by your love for the next, so don't worry about losing your "soul mate", 'cause he's only your "soul mate" for as long as you two are together.
