12 Heartwarming Signs He’s Your Soulmate

“How did you know he’s the one?”

Well, it’s a long story. Grab your popcorn and sit back; let me narrate it to you.

I wanted to do nothing with this man.

You know how you see someone and just friendzone them already? Yep. That’s who he was for me.

We became really great friends over the time. It was like everything I lacked in myself, he had to offer, and vice versa—just like two perfectly fitted jigsaw puzzle pieces. Yet, I always ignored the fact that we had something special. After all, nobody likes ruining their friendship, right?

What Is A Soulmate Actually?

One day, one of my friends randomly told me, “I think he’s your soulmate; you both are meant for each other.” And me being me, I questioned her back: “What even is a soulmate?”

And my friend replied,

A soulmate is the person with whom things seem easier and better. Someone who takes your worries and happiness as their own. Someone who understands you and you understand them deeply. Someone with whom you share a really powerful bond that cannot be broken.

That’s when it hit me like a truck!

My friend asked me to look out for signs to know whether he was my soulmate. And today, I am going to share those signs with you.

How Do You Know if a Man Is Your Soulmate? 12 Clues

1. Connection at First Sight

It sounds reaallyyyy filmy, I know. That was my first thought as well when my friend mentioned this to me.

But when I sat down and analyzed it more, I realized she was right! When you meet a potential soulmate, you’ll have a feeling in your heart—a feeling that you’ve known them for a really long time.

You’ll instantly feel good and positive. It’ll be like knowing them from a previous life. You’ll get close to each other in no time and feel like this connection will be lifelong. 

2. You’re “You” Around Him

This sign really does matter. We often pretend to be someone else in front of people and our partners in order to be liked more. But this is highly problematic because once the layers start coming off one by one, you won’t be able to save your relationship.

Let me give you my example. I have always feared being vulnerable in front of people. Always. Even in my romantic relationships, I’d never want my partner to see me as the weaker one. I’d never cry in front of them. 

But with this one, everything just changed!

I’d cry only in front of him; in fact, I’d call him and cry about my day. I’d be my most rowdy and authentic self with him, never afraid of judgment.

This made me feel so much liberated.

Trust me, having a partner with whom you can be you is the greatest joy in the world.

3. The Chemistry Is Undeniable & Undoubtable

Everything is fun and games in the beginning.

Every friendship and every relationship is most fun in the initial stages when you’ve just met and things are new. 

You’re still discovering things about them; they’re still a mystery to you, and there’s just so much left to unpack that you’re in love with the thrill of it.

But soon, things start to fade when you know all of their aspects.

This doesn’t happen with your soulmate. Year after year, you’d still feel the same butterflies, you’d still feel the same happiness, you’d still feel the same excitement with them.

They’ll make you laugh the hardest, and everything will feel just like it was initially.

Your connection will not die off.

4. You’ve Been Separated

Trust me, it just sounds unusual, but I have my reasons; read on.

See, when we have been with someone for a long time, love might fade away, but since it has become our habit, we cannot let it go. Arguments will always be a part of any relationship; they’re unavoidable. 

Some arguments or circumstances may lead to separation as well. But the thing is, these separations don’t last long with your soulmate.

You both cannot endure being apart. No matter how often you go on different paths, your connection is so strong that you’ll be together again sooner or later.

Deep down in your soul, you know that you both belong to each other.

You yearn for each other and return each time, making up for what’s lost.

5. Sometimes, “Nothing” is The Answer

Have you ever been around people with whom you’d continuously have to keep doing something or the other?

Take me for an example. I am always the life of the party. At every house party, I am the clown (I love talking and joking anyway). Even when I feel low, I still have to gear myself up for others. Often, this leaves me feeling drained and empty.

But not with my person.

With him, I don’t have to act in a certain way. With him, I don’t have to keep cracking jokes. I can just stay with him doing nothing. Even doing nothing with him feels so beautiful. It feels complete.

Silence doesn’t scare us. Silence doesn’t leave us with the hurried feeling of speaking something; it just leaves us with contentment. 

So, take this. When you’ve met your soulmate, there’s no obligation to keep engaged.

As Bruno Major said in the song – Nothing, “There’s nothing like doing nothing with you…”

6. One Look Is All It Takes

Have you seen it in movies? 

A couple is out with family for dinner.

Suddenly, someone asks an uncalled-for question, and one of the two gets uncomfortable. Immediately, the other one gets to know and changes the topic to make their partner feel comfortable.

That’s what I mean when I say, “One look is all it takes.”

Your soulmate can often find out how you’re feeling even when you don’t speak a word. Whether you’re uncomfortable, sad, happy, or high on energy, they’d get to know everything by stealing one glance at you. This tells that there is a special connection. 

The person loves you and respects you to the level of reading your body language. 

7. He Challenges You

As I said at the beginning of this blog, your soulmate and you will be like two different pieces of a perfect jigsaw puzzle. This means you both are different, but you both fit together perfectly.

Your soulmate won’t always be a “Yes, ma’am!” person.

When this happens, you both challenge each other to become a better version of yourself. I mean, who doesn’t need a person to push them towards their goals lovingly?

Your soulmate will always challenge you because they know what’s good for you and what isn’t.

Imagine this: You’ve been planning on working out for months, but you just never do it. You keep procrastinating and putting it off for tomorrow. 

Your soulmate won’t see you like this.

They’ll push you to get up and maybe even work out together to make you feel better and more confident. 

This is because they know that this thing is good for you; you’re just not making yourself a priority enough. 

If you have someone who can stand up for themselves, push you to do more, and help you grow in other directions, that’s a sign that he is your soulmate.

8. You Can’t Seem To Get Enough Of Them

Who doesn’t love space? 

My social battery runs out within an hour of being with other people because, oh god! Handling people and initiating conversations is difficult, but I still carry on.

Usually, I feel more drained after partying or meeting my friends rather than feeling nice and energetic.

But that’s not the case with him.

Even if he stays with me for a month, 24/7 on my head, I will never get bored or sad about it.

It seems as if I do not need any space with him. I am always excited, I am always relaxed, I am always up to do something, I am always up to not do anything but all with just this one person.

You know how sometimes even 24 hours in a day seem less? That’s how I feel about this person.

And that’s how you feel with your soulmate. More the time you spend, you’d still always want a little extra.

9. It’s All Easy Breezy

Life is difficult for everyone.

We all feel that life will improve as we grow up, but it always gets difficult. Treat life as a video game; the further you go, the more difficulties you will face.

A day is full of minor and sometimes major inconveniences. 

But you know what shows he’s your soulmate? Well, you’ll always feel at ease with him.

No matter how difficult a situation gets, you’ll always be at ease and know things will improve. They’ll make everything easy for you. Their presence will be reassuring for you.

You know that gut feeling you get when you’re with the one you love that nothing can go wrong?

This feeling will always be a constant in their presence.

Your mind and body will always be at ease, and you’ll find it easier to relax and be more positive than to get irritated.

10. You Both Have the Same Core Values

When I say you both are different people, I do not mean your core values differ. 

You should only be different in order to fulfill what the other one lacks.

For example, I am a more emotional person, whereas my partner is a more logical person.

This gives us the best of both worlds. He understands emotions that I make him understand, and he makes me see things logically when all I am doing is looking at them emotionally. 

But our core values are the same.

They have to be the same.

Now, you may be wondering, “What exactly are core values?”

Core values in a relationship are the fundamental beliefs and principles that partners hold dear. They guide their behaviors, decisions, and interactions with each other.

So, suppose you and your partner both value honesty as your core value. In that case, you’d prioritize truthfulness and communicate without any filters. 

Your core values should always be in sync; otherwise, it will be difficult for you to move forward with your relationship.

11. Your Inner Child Starts Healing

We all have some or the other childhood trauma that we usually avoid talking about.

Me? I got issues, bestie. Like real issues.

But this person acts like an ointment to all my wounds. 

Do you know the things that I have never shared with anyone? I’d share with him. He helps me face my fears and look at my unhealed trauma, which I never dared to heal because I knew it would hurt too much.

So, your soulmate always comes as a healer.

They’ll stand with you and help you heal. They’ll protect you along the process. The same old kid inside you who feared getting too close to someone and being vulnerable will actually feel protected, happy, and healed. 

They’ll keep your inner child happy without you asking them to do so. 

12. Your Bond Is Often Not Understood

Our friends and family always look out for us.

So, whenever I argued with my partner and we separated ways, my friends took offense. They would always ask me not to go back to him or let him in if he came back again.

My family would grow super protective of me. They didn’t like seeing what they saw.

But one crucial point to note here is that they all thought he was a nice guy, just that maybe we weren’t meant to be together.

Deep down, I knew that only I know who we are and how we are, what our bond is, and how we behave with each other. 

You see, soulmates have an extraordinary bond. We understand each other more than anyone can understand any other person out there. We understand each other to the level where people outside the relationship have difficulty understanding what goes on between two soulmates.

Hence, I always trusted my gut, and it was never wrong.

Conclusion

No matter what, you should always trust your gut.

When my friend told me all these signs, I realized she was right. My soulmate was right before me, and I could never see it.

Guess what? I am the happiest woman right now.

And you could be, too, if you take the leap and go for it.

Good luck, bestie!
