I don't like the idea of the "one," it puts too much pressure on finding a mate. And like that said you're "one" will change based on where you are. If I moved to Chicago right now I'd find a different one than if I stayed in Denver. I think there are a decent number of people you could be happy and compatible with for life. It's just a matter of finding them at the right time and place. I've dated people who could have been the right one, but one of us wasn't in a place to be in a serious relationship or one of us was moving, or whatever.
Lol, it wasn't meant to be a bummer. I saw it as a very positive enlightenment. Sometimes so many get stuck on finding or meeting "the one" and I just have never believed in the concept of one person for each individual. I believe that you meet someone at the right time in both of your lives, and then when you grow through the rainbows and storms together, you become irreplaceable--atleast when you have two committed people. You've created something with one another that no other person can have with you. You know, you become one together.
How about: “Things were messy and then they weren’t and two people decided to be together or they didn’t and there is no story here and there is no ending you can feel good about because love is so much more than this paragraph surrounded by flowers we paid some graphic design student to upload.”
The point of the blog post was to encourage those who get discouraged looking for "the one" and that perfect story that we read in romantic novels, to keep moving forward and embrace the idea of love more than that of romance. When you do this, you recognize that you ARE the one and the most important one that matters. When you embrace life as it comes instead of basing it off of what you have been taught it is supposed to be, things seem to fall in place so much more smoothly.

I believe in the "one" or a soul mate. Not everyone gets to have that though. Getting it is mostly based on luck or chance.
