Do you believe in soulmates?

Should I? ?In Somebody?s Company? is a short documentary in which I chatted 60 people from all demographics to help me understand of the phenomena of true love. After years of Mr. Almost, Mr. Whoa-Nelly, and Mr. What Was I Thinking? . . my faith has become challenged and eroded. I thought if I could talk with other people, ones that believed and ones who had found their soul mate, my faith could be renewed or at least maybe it would help me deal with my singleness after a "significant" birthday

Perhaps there is more to my crisis of faith than a birthday, and some failed relationships. Should I simply accept that soul mates are an invented notion, and choose to be happy with ?the one I?m with? instead of wondering if ?the one? is just around the corner.

I originally thought this would be personal quest, but soon discovered the theme is universal. Everyone has an opinion on this issue and they want to talk about it. Is there a Prince Charming and a Cinderella waiting out there for each of us? Or is that just a myth that became ingrained in our psyches by Hollywood and Fairy Tales. When I was younger there was no question ? I believed absolutely. In the course of making this film, I learned that person in their teens and twenties are more likely to believe that you have numerous soul mates, whereas a person mid-forties and older think there is only One. Which leaves us in the thirties in the middle and trying to sort it all out.
