Soulmates

My definition of a soul mate is

- Your best friend
- whom you can count to give you support
- whom you can relied on
- whom you can be totally yourself with
- whom will listen to you when you talk
- whom will make you happy
- whom you can share your joys/dreams/fears/sadness with
- whom love you as you are
- whom you will want to make him/her happy
- whom you will want to sacrificed for
- whom can fulfilled you and you him/her
- whom you can grow together
- whom may make you sad/frustrated but you still love him/her and want to be together

9 Ways of Marrying The Wrong Person - by Rabbi Dov Heller, M.A.

3. You pick the wrong person because the man doesn't understand what a woman needs most. Men and women have unique emotional needs, and more often than not, it is the man who just doesn't "get it".

Jewish tradition places the onus on the man to understand the emotional needs of a woman and to satisfy them. The unique need of a woman is to be loved -- to feel that she is the most important person in her husband's life. The husband needs to give her consistent, quality attention. This is most apparent in Judaism's approach to sexual intimacy. The Torah obligates the husband to meet the sexual needs of his wife. Sexual intimacy is always on the woman's terms. Men are goal-oriented, especially when it comes to this area. As a wise woman once pointed out, "Men have two speeds: on and off." Women are experience-oriented. When a man is able to switch gears and become more experience-oriented, he will discover what makes his wife very happy. When the man forgets about his own needs and focuses on giving his wife pleasure, amazing things happen.
