Sorta. I don't know - never been in a relationship myself do don't have experience. I'm a bit of a romantic, so I do think there's that special person who you just know is meant for you when you meet them - but then again, you see people who thought they were totally in love with each other have to split up for whatever reason, then they go on to find another person who they fall totally in love with. Maybe there's a few people out there for everyone, and you could be soul mates with anyone of them?

Do you have to be in love with someone to consider him/ her as your soul mate?

I'd say not, my best mate is defo my soul mate. He is just brill, like a big bro to me and I adore him!!!
No, because people change too much over time. I know somebody who got engaged very young, no doubt he loved her very much then, but a few years later and he's not really behaving like he wants to spend the rest of his life with her...
You can have a soulmate who isn't your partner. I have a friend who is my soulmate, but they would drive me crazy as a boyfriend.
I think soul mates don't necessarily have to be your partner, just someone who you feel you have an absolute bond.

I think they do exist.

Yer, i do. My best friend at school is truly my soul mate. It's wierd cus most people say on paper they don't see why we are, but it doesn't take long to realise we are 100% on the same wavelength. I think that's what makes a soul mate, not just someone you get on with, but someone who naturally, and over time you grow to completely understand.
Yep. agreed. i got 2 soulmates!! well .. atleast i think i do ?! 1 is my best friend, shes amazin, n like the person above said, shes some1 who is completely on my wavelength with me not just a good friendship.
the other, he's like a brother to me, i dont know where i'd be without him, and yeah like some1 said earlier, drive me crazy as a boyfriend.

they do exist, sometimes it just takes so long to find them. but ye i think every1 has 1.

It doesn't have to be someone that you're in a relationship with.
Yes, i do, but i think it's incredibly lucky, and perhaps quite rare, that people find theirs, often people will settle for someone they love hugely but aren't soulmates with, and that's ok for them. i also don't think that soulmates have to be romantic partners, and often can be found in friends, colleagues etc. i don't necessarily believe there is only 1 person, or 1 soulmate for everyone, but there may be more, with different bonds. my boyfriend isn't my soulmate, but it doesn't hinder my love for him, i think you need to have experienced a lot more to know who your soulmate is when you meet them. people are lucky to find their soulmate out of billions of people, and so for those people, they do exist, but for a lot of people, it's hard to believe in them until you find your own. x
yeah I do believe in soul mates, but like everything else wonderful, it always f**cks up.
