TEENAGE "SOULMATES"

I'm 18+..and I'm straight...but I dont have much experience with the fairer sex...so pardon me if I talk like a novice..

Many of my friends(both boys and girls),who are about my age,claim that they have already found their soulmates...lucky for them.I'm not here to criticise their feats...but what amazes me is that have we even reached the sufficient age when we are capable of choosing soulmates...?

You see...soulmates are supposed to be with each other at all times...be it good or bad...but frankly...is two/three years of courtship enough to find those qualities in someone...?

It is said that teenage years are the most vital...'coz it's the time strange changes occur within us (both physical and mental)...and makes us complete.A slightest imbalance pushes us over a cliff...

Let me share a story with u guys...A friend of mine (let's call him A) loved a girl who was his classmate.The girl was unaware of his feelings...but secretly she admired him(mind you..."admired"...not "loved").A was afraid of letting the girl know his feelings...but eventually he proposed to that girl...egged on by his classmates.Predictably..the girl said yes...

How happy A was that fateful day...he threw a bash...and many of his friends(including me) had a hearty dinner at his expense.They began to see each other...............and within a short span...became intimate.They were confident( atleast my friend was)...that they were soulmates.
But not all relationships are made in heaven...After some days...the girl made it quite clear that she wanted a way out of the relationship...She would fight with A over trifle issues...and would accuse him of misdoings all the time.When confronted by mutual friends...her reply was that her relationship with A was just simple attraction...which she mistook as love...and now that relationship was suffocating her.

U can well realise what happened to A after that...he was shattered...He tried to pacify the girl many times over...but all his pleas fell on deaf ears.......After all...A's love for the girl was true.The unpleasant episode took a heavy toll on his studies................
But now...after so many days...matters are have changed for the better.
The former "lovebirds" study in different colleges...and guess what...they are in "Love" with once again...................................with different people though!


So I ask you:Whatever happened to their notion of "soulmates"..?
