The One

"When you meet the right person, you know it. You can't stop thinking about them. They're your best friend and your soulmate. You can't wait to spend the rest of your life with them. No one, and nothing else, can compare." - HIMYM

I have recently lost the "one" as they say, and I have fallen into a Chasing Amy sort of scenario.

Do you believe in the "one" and where is that special person right now?

The one got away

Never buy rope online.

I think you know when you have a spark or connection with a person, but "things" dont always work out.. who knows she may come back to you in the future ... I know i'd like to think that's the case anyway ..

There's lots of "ones" for everyone.

starbelgrade · 27-08-2012 10:09AM

I don't believe for one minute that there is only "one person" for everybody.

I think it's natural enough to want someone that you can spend the rest of your life with, but if that is for you then it's more of a case of finding someone - as opposed to the one - to do that with.

Jerrica · 27-08-2012 10:09AM

If they were the right person for you, you'd still be with them.

Dunno if there's "THE one", but there's usually one (or three) who tick more boxes than most.

Yes, I believe in the concept. Unfortunately, mine is a 52 year old tribe woman from Mali called Nfume. She doesn't even know I exist, but I know she's out there.

Finger cuffs eh?

I think most have experienced this sort of scenario where you kind of feel lost skipping from person to person trying to replace what you had or what you feel you need. Looking back now those "Chasing Amy" moments are/were the most character building moments I had relationship wise but didn't appreciate them enough at the time to enjoy them.

The devil is in the details so do tell. Let us live vicariously through you

Right, stop and think logically about it.....

Where is the last place you can remember having the "one" and work back from there? Can't have got far.. We'll all help you look too.... You'll Find it in the last place you look, doh:mad:

Not quite finger cuffs haha

but the details are so long and exhausting it would raise more questions than answers. A complicated sequence of unfortunate and regrettable events that I would alter if I had the power to do so.

Gah, I named my daughter Alyssa. I hope she doesn't live up to her namesake

In all seriousness, the "One" is just a label invented to ruin polygamy. Fookin religion ruins everything good in this world.

Enjoy the time you have being on your own, eventually it'll be filled with someone you'll prolly grow to hate and children

How I Met Your Mother? Are people really pulling lines from that cynical, unfunny cancer of a program as examples of life-affirming quotes? God damn that show is terrible.

Where To · 27-08-2012 10:45AM

I haven't met the five or the six yet, never mind the one.

KKkitty · 27-08-2012 10:47AM

I didn't think there was "The One" til I met my now fiance. We originally met when I was 17 but it wasn't the right time for either of us. Fast forward 10 years and we met again and decided to start seeing each other. What's for you won't pass you OP.

starlings · 27-08-2012 10:49AM

it'd be handy to meet the last one first and save a lot of messing around with someones who turn out to be anyone's.

westendgirlie · 27-08-2012 10:49AM

I broke up with, who I thought was "The One". Felt like my whole life had ended yadda yadda yadda. Then I got a good seeing to and realised "The One" wasn't really any good at giving me one.

Sex really puts things into perspective

We all pull advice from strange and sometimes unorthodox places, doesn't make the advice any less powerful. Sure I got advice from an alcoholic homeless Russian man on success, he was in no way in a position of success but his advice helped me substantially in my career.

Ahhhh is that a heart I hear breaking, you sap.
