As long as you don't see negative with your partner everything would be wonderful. Our partner is our choice, after all there can be no perfect partner. We get to love a person for who he is. </p>Online DatingFri, 27 Feb 2009 16:15:57 -0000http://carrieanddanielle.com/the-soul-mate-list-good-or-bad-idea/#comment-4913695<p>Strangely - I wrote a list in 2001 and when I dug it out a little while ago, my husband was all of it, and more. I found it a really useful exercise, and the main points on it haven't changed. It was actually a good way to reflect on myself as well. I'm all for the list!</p>MoJoMon, 05 Jan 2009 13:51:37 -0000http://carrieanddanielle.com/the-soul-mate-list-good-or-bad-idea/#comment-4882834<p>I don't believe in soul mates and lists prevent one from being present to the unusual, the mysterious and the suprises in life. Well said Carolyn</p>CarrieSun, 04 Jan 2009 16:01:04 -0000http://carrieanddanielle.com/the-soul-mate-list-good-or-bad-idea/#comment-4878601<p>I love this. It is so true. My husband would have never made the "list" I made in my single 20's. And Thank God for that! I threw the list out the window when I looked around and found list was keeping me single...and there he was.</p>jmcdormandSun, 04 Jan 2009 08:34:17 -0000http://carrieanddanielle.com/the-soul-mate-list-good-or-bad-idea/#comment-4855194<p>yes!! It's important to know your deal-breakers, otherwise you could waste a lot of time being unhappy without knowing why. But most lists are garbage. I always thought my partner would be 2 inches taller and 2 years older than me, so when the right man came along I didn't recognize him. 2 inches shorter, 16 years older, bald and unemployed - who knew? I just married him after almost 10 ridiculously fun, passionate, and adventurous years together. Still having the time of my life. :)</p>ElwyneFri, 02 Jan 2009 17:31:20 -0000http://carrieanddanielle.com/the-soul-mate-list-good-or-bad-idea/#comment-4832939<p>burn the list. light a match, right now. lists get in the way of your heart and smarts.</p>DanielleLaPorteFri, 02 Jan 2009 14:14:32 -0000http://carrieanddanielle.com/the-soul-mate-list-good-or-bad-idea/#comment-4830427<p>Beautiful.
