Would you feel ill at ease meeting someone you knew was going to be your life partner?

Asked by Rubrica (613points) October 26th, 2010

A magical prophecy has allowed you to see who your life partner will be, and you have just met them. How do you feel? How do you behave?

I’d be cool as a cucumber since Miss Cleo proclaims that he has no choice but to love and worship me foreverrrrrr.

“Life partner”....oh please…haven’t you heard…life is like a bag of Lays potato chips…no one can eat just one! I’ve been institutionalized for a couple of decades now….there had better be at least one or two more chips to dip before I die! Unless somehow you have managed for this magical prophecy to conjure up a Javier Bardem look alike who is equally charming…then by all means wave that wand…and NO, I wouldn’t be ill at ease at all.

Not at all. Honestly with he way people I’ve been around lately have been talking about relationships, I’d be euphoric! I constantly hear others’ tales of woe, heartbreak, and stress due to failed relationships/ relationships with bad matches/assholes and I’d be super happy to avoid all that. Apart from that I’ve regular bouts of deep loneliness for a few years now and would be ecstatic to see an end to it. As far as behavior? I’d just be myself! It would work if you weren’t compatible, right?

Relief, tremendous relief and adulation for this person. If it was the person for me, I would have so many questions answered.

I would behave as I would with any guy that I meet… flirty and such, but inside I would be giddy as heck knowing that no matter what we would end up together… teeeheee

The real question is whether or not I would tell the other person. :/

aw crud. meant to say “I’d just be myself! it wouldn’t work if we weren’t compatible, right?

@MaekoPoisoning Brings up a good point.

I would wait till we were already together and official to tell the other person.

I’d be so excited, I just can’t hide it. Really! but my life partner would be so amazing to me I’d probably be speechless at first.

It happened to me three times already.

speaking from my experience, not many individuals “impress” me immediately, however, ther can be a tingling, a “magic moment” in time that will peak my interest and I just know that this New, exciting person was meant to be in my life for whatever purpose. It’s my “gut” reaction in the moment and I trust it because it does not happen to me often. Usually, this individual becomes significant in a romantic, future long-term manner and I just go with the feelings and emotions because love is the most powerful emotion there is and it feels wonderful to be exclusively involved with another kindred spirit! Have fun!

I’ve only ever met one guy who made me feel like maybe we could be together forever. Then again I’m fourteen, and still have lots of time to meet guys and find the right guy for myself.
