When your soul mate isn’t single…

The universe created soulmate couples for a reason. The universe also decides when soulmates meet, and there is also reasoning behind their timing. You may meet your soulmate when they have just begun a relationship with someone else. The reason the universe may have brought about your meeting is so your soulmate gains some clarity.

Everything happens for a reason

The universe may have no other way to help guide your soulmate out of the relationship they are already in. Your soulmate may be stuck in the wrong relationship. They may have given up on wanting more and settled for less. This is where you come in. Who else but a soulmate could give them the strength or courage they need to get out of a relationship that does not work for them?

Unfortunately it can take quite a bit of time for your soulmate to get out of their current relationship. They may be so deeply enmeshed in a dysfunctional relationship that they can’t see their way out of it. They may love you and want to be with you but have a hard time letting go. This is part of their lesson and their growth. Your meeting them was part of their lesson plan. It will be hard to be patient, and have faith that they will leave some day.

You must consider thought not all soulmates will leave a bad relationship to be with their soulmate. Sometimes they just don’t all have the courage or are unable to make the right choices.

Should you pull away from a soulmate that is not single? Should you enter into a friendship or an affair? What is the right way to handle it when your soulmate is not single? Well, each soulmate couple is different. Their circumstances, lessons, and life path are all different. There is no cookie cutter answer that fits for all soulmates.

It may seem like the end of the world if your soulmate is not single. In truth, it isn’t always as bad as it may seem.
