We spend months and years
looking for a soulmate
to spend the rest of our lives with,
but there too
only a few get lucky.
What if
you found a replica of yourself
in the opposite gender
who’s just like you
with all your flaws and imperfections,
would you seek her?
Or
would you despise her
and your own self
for who you really are
and keep the search on
for someone better?

An interesting idea. Hmmmm.
Yeah, Jasper. It randomly occurred to me today…
Now things could get very interesting as people venture to answer that question.
I would say yes. Then I would be inclined to include a caveat. I would exempt certain aspects of myself.
Oh, I guess there is no option for negotiating a few elements because that technically would change the “yes” answer into a “no” response.
Opposites attract and keep life interesting!
That’s true, Roth. Some say we need to respect each other’s differences and choose the middle path…
What if you wouldn’t despise her but also would search for something better? Do they have to be mutually exclusive?
That’s an interesting point you have put forward 🤔
I have chosen a mirror image- but both of us were hollow in the same places….
That’s really deep, Violet. And philosophical 🤔
Would depend on if there was a real feeling of connection.
This definitely made me stop and look within…a very good question that I don’t have an answer for at this moment in my life.
