-Lifetime Partner – destiny or choice?

Do you believe that the person whom you would share the rest of your life
is someone who was destined to be yours or someone who was your choice…?

[witch_goddess]

For me lifetime partner is a choice because it is your mind that dictates if would you pursue a relationship with this certain person or not. It is determining what you like and what you not like to have a relationship with this person.

I believe it is both. I know that is a cop out. I think destiny put people in your life/path and you choose which one you want to spend your life with. I don’t believe you have only one soul mate.

between this destiny or choice – i go with both, we can have lot of choices, when you have choice to select have to be careful since its life accounts.

I agree with you wacki, i do believe in both

I believe it’s choice and not fate or destiny. I don’t believe we are just handed things in life and I don’t believe relationships are that easy that we can just get with out “soulmate” and then be lazy and comfortable with them. I think it’s choice and I think sometimes in life we make the wrong choices and want things to work so bad with the wrong people. I think I’ve only been with one person I thought was my soul-mate years ago but I never really took much weight to the subject of soul mates.

I agree with this poster; I also think it can be both. Someone coming into our life’s path is destiny. Making that person your life time partner is a choice.

According to me destiny plays the imperative role in your life..Its the destiny which bring you the right man in your life..

I met a few before I marry…
Each of them seemed potential till something turn up somehow…be it fear of commitment, insecure, player…u name it! And after all the ups and downs, left and right…you would think I end up with the man of my dreams.
NOT SURE about that!
I chose to be with him cus I want to believe he is the RIGHT one.
Prior to marriage, he made me believe he is the one who can take care and look after me because he loves me. Of course, married life would bring out other things in the relationship you cannot foresee before u sign the paper that made me doubt I made the right choice.
SURELY I DESERVE BETTER, I did think.
But I DID make the choice. I hope destiny has a part to play while I did.
Now its just unveiling the uglies, and in time I hope to see its beauty. Finger crossed.

Actually for me It was my destiny But God’s choice. I prayed for it, and I got my answer. Friends set us up online and we both just fell for each other. I never saw him (except in picts) until the day I jumped on a bus and moved from TX to IN. I belive God was helping me in my choices to lead me to my destiny.

having a lifetime partner is a choice. i think this is one of the many privilege we have as a human being. You can choose to live alone or have someone as a partner.

Without a doubt, its a CHOICE.
I don’t believe that we are just given things in life. I spent years believing in destiny and it got me…well nowhere. I was unhappy, single, and found that my life was going nowhere. My life didn’t start to turn around until after I MADE THE CHOICE TO. I chose my boyfriend, I love him, I am very happy with him, I am deeply comfortable, but is he the one I want to marry? I don’t know. I’ll just have to wait and see. Fate is just a way of giving up your ability to choose, which is bad. You pick who you want to be with, and giving yourself the illusion that that person was given to you is a dangerous. You can never know one person completely. Sometimes you can get lucky, and other times you can end up in a marriage with someone who wasn’t the same person as they where when you first started dating, and be unhappy. I’ve seen this happen so many times. It’s a choice, end of story.

Choosing your life partner is one of the most important decisions you make in your life. Before choosing your life partner, you need to determine your needs.Second, you have to choose a life partner who fits your vision and is compatible with your specific requirements and needs.For a compatible relationship the couple should have common interests.

Hmm…great discussion! Well, as the bible said, desires of the heart belong to man but the desires of the mind belong to God.

So, this says that yes, it is a choice (if it is an emotion of love that determines the decision.) But if you use your logic and rationale to bring you to a point, and loving this person is icing on the cake, maybe then it is destiny and the bonus is you get to fall in-love.
