Childhood Sweetheart & Soul Mate

Question - (6 September 2014) 2 Answers - (Newest, 9 September 2014)
A female United Kingdom age 26-29, *reallylikehim123 writes:

Basically I met a boy when I was 9 years old, we had gone to school together.. he was my first childhood "boyfriend" and my first kiss etc. We were together as a couple for about fish years (I know it was nothing serious we were kids at that age) then when we had started secondary school I moved away, and he moved.. (Long story) But we broke up not long after I moved away because I moved miles and miles plus we were still so young and the long distance relationship would never have worked out, at that age.

Anyway, me and him kept in contact maybe speaking once or twice a year his family were like my family and remained friends on Facebook occasionally messaging each other and sending xmas cards.. until a month ago.. We started talking and talking 24/7.. As soon as I saw him on a Skype call my heart started racing and i felt butterflies in my stomach, I wanted to be sick, all my feelings for him came rushing back but amplified by like 10000, I am just curious to as why all these feelings and deep emotional love/connections started between me and him. We are currently back as girlfriend and boyfriend, its only been a few days and he has already said he loves me, and i told him I loved him too (which I really do, and I can't even figure out why.. we hadn't seen each other face to face in around 7 years now, we are meeting again for the first time this week, every time I talk to him about arrangements when we meet etc I get butterflies and a HUGE lump in my throat and get so excited I could cry.. he also tells me he loves me and that he doesn't want to lose me again (I broke up with him when we were younger) but we somehow manage to finish each others sentences, and over the phone we won't say anything for 10 minutes and not feel any awkwardness towards each other, everything is just perfect! and I know i may be speaking waaay too soon but is it possible that the whole "Soul mate" thing is real? have i possibly found mine, again.. from my childhood boyfriend.. I love him, and I know people say you can't love someone you haven't seen in a long time or hardly know, but it feels like I have known him my entire life, but I just have this over whelming feeling when it comes to him.. I don't know why. and I don't know why he feels it back, is it possible that he is my one? I feel like he is and I don't care what people think, i asked my mum the same questions and she just made fun of me and said I was rushing it and that it wasn't love.. but I know what I feel.. any opinions on this? and the soul mate thing?

Thanks!

Ive seen some beautiful relationships grow from chilhood sweetheart days. Its clear that you two are very compatible and that you'll probably be holding each other close by the end of the day you reunite. The honeymoon stage really tricks you into believing hes the one, so pay close attention to his tendency. Like does he care about how i feel, are we able to agree on the big things in life, will he be willing to take interests in my own interests. I can see that you two are already supremely close, so maybe im jist being silly. And dont listen to that geezer. Soul mates do exist, im happily married to mine today. I wish you two the best!

I certainly don't even accept that such thing as "a soul" exists without any evidence, let alone "soul mates", BUT it seems to me like you're both so excited about seeing each other again and everything is about to go really well for you both:) You shouldn't have such high expectations though, thinking of him as your perfect other half or something unrealistic like that might make you get more disappointed when he takes off that mask we all carry around and shows you parts of his personality you might not be so enchanted with. All I'm saying is soul mates exist in fairy-tales, and people who appreciate, respect and learn to accept each other make long-lasting relationships in real life;)
