18 Signs You've Found Your Soulmate



Spiritually speaking, it is said that even before you were born, the name of your spiritual half has been determined. Each soul has a perfect match… your soulmate.

Although most people think of a soulmate as a perfect harmonious union of bliss, your true spiritual soulmate is the person who is intended to help you “complete yourself.”


www.xirkings.com

Jerry McGuirewas right – soul mates complete each other. A person is unable to complete his mission in life alone. Everyone needs someone to help them become a better person. This is not always a blissful experience.

Being in an honest, sincere, and committed soulmate relationship helps you to become a better version of yourself. You have to push yourself beyond your comfort zone, beyond your limits to find your better self.

Even though we tend to think of soul mates as a symbiotic union; soulmate relationships can be rough at the beginning. They can be like two jagged edged puzzle pieces trying to click into place. Sometimes it looks like you do not fit together at all, but soon after a little bit of twisting, turning, and flipping the pieces around, you feel the moment of the perfect click. It’s a feeling deep in your soul, that says, this is the right one.

Often soulmates appear in disguise. You might not be physically attracted to each other when you first meet, but there is a mysterious force pushing you forward that tells you this is “the right one” for you.
www.xirkings.com
You have a personal checklist of everything you want in a partner. Tall- check. Dark hair (no curls please)-check. Blondes only-check. 6 pack abs- check. Or you can be likeJerry Seinfeld who knows his date is not “the one” becauseshe eats her peas one at a time.

So, if you are brave enough to move away from your romance checklist, open your eyes and your heart to unexpected possiblities, you might just be one of the lucky ones who finds their true soul match.

You know you’ve found your soulmate when:

1. You just know it.

Something deep inside tells you this is the perfect one for you. It’s as if there is a spiritual force pushing you to let go of everything you previously expected and to give of yourself completely.

2. You have crossed paths before.

Soulmates have met each other and a previous time. You may not have connected, but you were in the same place, at the same time. Before my husband and I met, we lived across the street from each other and worked across the street from each other. Yet we never met until the time was right.

3. Your souls meet at the right time.



Each person has to be ready to receive the soul connection. Even though my husband and I were in close proximity of each other for many years, we did not meet until the time was right for both of us. You have to be prepared to meet your soulmate. It could be that you have to go through a relationship that doesn’t work out, or that you’re not ready to ditch your “perfect person checklist,” but when it comes to soulmates- timing is everything.

4. Your quiet space is a peaceful place.

Being quiet together is comforting like a fluffy down blanket on a cold winter night. Whether you are reading in the same room, or driving in the car, there’s a quiet peace between you.

5. You can hear the other person’s silent thoughts.

With soulmates, there is such depth to your relationship that you can feel and hear what your partner is thinking, even if it is not verbally expressed.

6. You feel each other’s pain.



You stand in each other’s shoes. You know each other so well, that the second he walks in the door, you can tell how his day was. You feel each other’s feelings: sadness, worry, and stress. And you share each other’s happiness and joy.

7. You know each other’s flaws and the benefits in them.

Yes, it’s true. Our flaws have benefits. Every trait has a positive as well as a negative side. It’s the task of each person to always look for the good, even when things don’t look so good. There is usually a benefit to each flaw. Stubborn people are good decision makers. Overly organized people are great at paying bills on time.

8. You share the same life goals.

You’re both on the same page with values, ethics, and goals. You may have a different way of reaching those goals, but you both want the same end result.

9. You’re not afraid of having a conversation.



Conversations can be challenging. Expressing concerns or attempting to make decisions is uncomfortable. Soulmates know that if they join together, they will be able to work it out.

10. You are not threatened by the need for alone time.

Whether it’s tennis three times a week or girls’ night out, you respect each other’s need for independence, knowing that when you get together, your time alone is special.

11. You don’t experience jealousy.

Pretty girls at the office or handsome personal trainers aren’t a threat to your relationship.You are secure knowing that you are the only one.

12. You respect each other’s differences and opinions.



You know you have different opinions. Often soulmates are polar opposite. At times this is challenging. These are the times when you are being forced to let the other person complete you. You still have your own opinion, but instead of agreeing to disagree, there is a deep level of respect for each other. You listen and honor the differences.

13. You don’t scream, curse, or threaten each other with divorce.

Of course you feel the anger. People unintentionally hurt each other. But soulmates aren’t nasty, hurtful, or punitive.

14. You give in because you want to make your partner happy.

Giving can often occur in unhealthy, co-dependent, or abusive relationships. But soulmates give to each other for the sole purpose of making each other happy.

15. You know how to apologize.



It’s not easy to say “I’m sorry” or admit that you did something that hurt the person you love. Soulmates realize that their actions or words cause harm. Even if they feel justified in their point of view, if their partner was hurt by it, they can easily apologize for the harm they have caused.

16. You would marry each other again.

You know this is the one and only one for you. Even through the tough times, you would choose your partner again. You feel a sense of pride in your partner.

17. You complete each other.

Yes, I’m sorry to say it but, your partner fills in your blanks. No person is perfect. We all have our strengths and weaknesses. Soulmates complete each other. It’s the yin and yang of perfect harmony. One person may be the extrovert, while one is the introvert. One may be social, while the other a homebody. Soulmates are often opposite that are attracted to a person who has their missing pieces.

18.Being in each other’s arms washes away all your stress, worries, and anxiety.



There is no place you’d rather be at the end of the day but in each other’s arms. If you had a rough day filled with disagreements, a fight with your boss or if you missed the train, whatever happened is gone the second you cuddle up together. There is a warmth in your heart, an inner peace you can feel. No words need to be spoken. All that exists is the silent, blissful union of two souls together. Two souls that were meant to be together eternally.

Romance / Here Is Why You Move Your Head From Left To Right When You Kiss by mayorkun(m): 12:47pm On Jul 19, 2017
Though it sounds funny, have you ever wondered why you tilt your head towards the right when you try to kiss your beloved? Why don't you lean towards the left?

Well, now researchers found an answer to this question. They say that a lot of cognitive science and neuroscience is behind this simple natural action of most of us.

Well, when you tilt towards the right, your partner also naturally does the same to reach your lips. We all have a tendency to match the action of the loved one during a kiss, says this study. Here are more facts.



What Studies Say

A study claims that men generally initiate a kiss more often than women. And when they do that, they tilt towards the right. This happens almost subconsciously as we are hard-wired to do so!



From The Beginning!

Most of the human beings have a tendency to move towards the right. Even in the womb, the foetus seems to turn the head towards the right. Even in adulthood, most of us use right hand and right leg to initiate any action.



Ingrained Behaviour

As certain behaviours are ingrained in us, we continue those actions throughout the lifetime. And we never seem to question those natural actions as they happen without our interference!

KISSING with closed eyes; Here's the REASON behind | Boldsky



Research

As a part of the study, researchers requested several couples to kiss in private. Surprisingly, almost all couples started the kiss by tilting the head towards the right! Both the one who initiated the kiss and the recipient seemed to do so without thinking twice!



Initiator's Action

When the initiator tilts towards the right, the recipient naturally does so to make the kiss more convenient.



Brain Activity

Though this action seems very simple on the surface, a lot of brain activity causes the tilt towards the right, say researchers.



Hormones

Researchers attribute this action even to hormones like testosterone and neurotransmitters like dopamine. This action may vary in some people who are left handed and prefer left direction more than anything else.

Romance / How To Make A Lady Like You Unconditionally, Even If You Don't Have Money by mayorkun(m): 9:49am On Jul 19, 2017
Unlike the male counterpart, you need to do an extraordinary assignments for you to get a lady to like you and fall in love with you. They are expensive to get.
Women most times prove to be stubborn even when they like you as a person. They always don't want to give themselves to you so cheap(which is even better), so they try all they can to make themselves hard to get for men to cherish them more.
Let me teach you few things you can do to get a girl's attention.

1. Dress attractive :

You can say it goes either ways, however, most women love to see your dress sense. This is because they want you to look extra ordinarily attractive to not just them but to their friends too.
Most women always consider their friends first before considering other things as they love to compete with each other .
Even if you are ugly, good dress sense will still make you attractive as most of them judge you through your appearance.

Most of them are not really interested in the name of designers, even if you like put on Dolce and Gabana instead of Dolce & Gabbana, not because they don't know or like designers, but so far you look good, attractive and sharp they are fine.

2. Be bold :

Most women love a man that is bold to face not just her but her group. They want to hear how you construct your sentences even when you are tensed, how you comport yourself generally under pressure and how you deal with rejection or failure, maybe you are the type that give up to failure easily or not.
They believe it is a huge task for you to even come to them to ask for friendship let alone a relationship.

3.Be bold :

Most women love a man that is bold to face not just her but her group. They want to hear how you construct your sentences even when you are tensed, how you comport yourself generally under pressure and how you deal with rejection or failure, maybe you are the type that give up to failure easily or not.
They believe it is a huge task for you to even come to them to ask for friendship let alone a relationship.

3. Be funny:

It is almost general to like someone who is funny, however, ladies like funny guys more.
They love to laugh and be happy, even when they are sad they want someone who can pull them to happiness, someone who can make them laugh out of nothing.
Not that they don't want you to be serious, but you need to be funny before they can get to know more of you. Even an "SU" want you to be funny let alone the slay girls of this millennium.

4. Money:

As much as i know that there are many ladies who wouldn't love you for money but for the drive you've got, as a man you need to have not plenty but manageable amount your earn or get.
This is because, you will need to give her surprise gift, take her out and make her feel you care.
This is because she will not think about the present but the future too as there will be times she will need some things which she might not want to ask you for money directly for them but stylishly she will inform you, and her aim for informing you is to tell you she wouldn't mind if those things can be fulfilled by you.
So, you must also get your pocket prepared.

5. Show Affection to her surroundings

When you like a woman and you want her you need to show it to those around her too. You must also show that you like her to whatever or whoever she is associated with for it to go all well.
Unlike men, most women are emotional and they love to feel you through those that surrounds them. They want to hear good things about you around them, so, she is okay with you if the surroundings can accept you

Phones / Best Chinese Smartphone You Know About by mayorkun(m): 8:39am On Jul 17, 2017
The OnePlus 5 is the latest flagship from the Chinese manufacturer, and it's an absolute beast, even compared to its flagship killing predecessor, the OnePlus 3T (also on this list). There are two variants, each with differing RAM and internal storage amounts. The 64 GB / 6 GB of RAM version goes for $479, while the 128 GB / 8 GB of RAM version is just $539. Considering that this device has the latest Qualcomm processor, the same Snapragon 835 as the Galaxy S8 in fact, this is an incredible price.
As we noted in our review, the OnePlus 5 bears a strong resemblance to the iPhone 7, but the back is more curved and ergonomic, with a less significant camera bump. With such an overkill amount of RAM, the phone has fantastic performance, and the Dash Charge keeps it juiced up well. The camera performance is perfectly adequate, and best of all, it's available in the US.
Lowest price: OnePlus 5

Honor 8

The Honor 8 is a truly impressive device for its price. It's less than $400, but it manages to perform on par with the $700 flagships of the moment. With this device, Huawei managed to make a top of the line smartphone for half the price and it looks gorgeous.
Opinion by Brittany McGhee
The Honor 8 has a premium look without the price tag
What do you think?
The Honor 8's design sets it apart. Plus, it has premium touches, like the glass and aluminum body, strong performance and excellent battery life. Add the dual 12 MP camera system with an optical image stabilizer, double pixel technology and rapid focus to the mix and you can see why we think it's an excellent value phone. Best of all, you can get it in the US easily.
Lowest price: Honor 8

Honor 6X
Again, Honor sets the bar high. The Honor 6X caters to the needs of connected millenials looking for an affordable phone without compromising too much with the specs. It offers most high-end features, but the price-performance ratio is what really sets it apart.
The 6X has a 5.5-inch Full-HD LCD display, 16 nm octa-core HiSilicon Kirin 655 processor and a 3,340 mAh battery. These aspects combined mean you're getting a powerful smartphone that can breeze through a day of normal use without breaking a sweat. It runs the latest version of Android and has a satisfactory 12 MP rear camera, too.

OnePlus 3T
Among the 2016 flagships, the OnePlus 3T really impressed us. The Snapdragon 821 processor plus 6 GB of RAM really outdoes a lot of its more well-known competitors. The flagship killer even earned itself the title of fastest on the market for a brief while. It's at the top end of the performance spectrum, and we've got the benchmark results to prove it in our review.
The design is also pretty sleek, especially if you're not sold on the idea of a glass backed phone. You can get the OnePlus 3T online in the US with no problems, as well.

Huawei Mate 9
The Huawei Mate 9 is a powerful, yet long-lasting device. It's reliable and visually appealing, as well. The huge 5.9-inch full HD display complements the standard Huawei design dominated by metal and glossy cut edges. Its dual-lens camera comes from the experts at Leica.
This phablet wasn't originally launched in the US, but is now available here as of February 2017. You can get the beast from a variety of outlets. It comes with a 4,000 mAh battery, an octa-core Hisilicon Kirin 960 processor, Android Nougat and 4 GB of RAM.

Honor 9
While Honor says they have no plans to release the Honor 9 in the US for now, I'm keeping my fingers crossed, because it's a fantastic device that looks simply stunning. The way the light reflectoff the back is even more mesmerizing than its predecessor, the glass-backed Honor 8 (also on this list). In addition to the design, the new flagship has great performance specs.
The Honor 9 boasts the same Kirin 960 processor as the Huawei P10 (for a lower price) and 4 GB of RAM, in addition to a 3,200 mAh battery capacity. In our review, that translated to smooth performance and average battery life. The camera is feature-packed and provides great results, especially with the Pro mode. If you like the look and feel inspired to buy this phone, you can wait and hope it comes to the US officially or try to import it from Europe, the UK or China, at the equivalent price of about $500.

Xiaomi Mi 6
The Xiaomi Mi 6 has taken the place of its predecessor on this list as it has just been released in China on April 28. Unfortunately, this device isn't coming to the US officially, but it may be worth looking into importing one. For between $360 and $435 (plus import costs), you get some of the best specs on the market - on par with those of the Samsung Galaxy S8.
It offers curved glass on the back and front, the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor and 6 GB of RAM. To keep the 5.15-inch display going all day, it has a more than adequate 3,350 mAh battery. We can't wait to get our hands on this device to try it out.

Xiaomi Mi Mix
Nowadays, Xiaomi even improves the innovation of what they copy. The Xiaomi Mi Mix recycles the idea of a mid-range phone released in 2015, manufactured by Sharp, the Aquos Crystal . This curious device came and went from store shelves without making any sort of splash. Yet, the same idea in the hands of Xiaomi has become innovative and futuristic. The bezel-less display is remarkable, taking up 91.3 % of the device's surface. The corners of the display are also rounded, which further improves the screen edge. Since there isn’t any space above the display, the front camera has been moved to the bottom, similar to the Aquos from Sharp. This is a truly amazing looking device.
This smartphone went on sale in China on November 4. It has two variants: 4 GB RAM and 128 GB of memory, and 6 GB RAM and 256 GB of memory with gold details.
Without any border, the Mi Mix’s display covers 91.3 % of the device's front. / © Xiaomi
Huawei P10
The Huawei P10 replaces the P9 on this list. It has a trendy dual camera, great build quality, powerful processor and a gorgeous 5.1-inch display. The 3,200 mAh battery keeps the impressive Kirin 960 processor and 4 GB of RAM going throughout the day. The phone comes with the latest version of Android, Nougat, plus its internal memory can be expanded with a microSD card.
On notable thing about the Huawei P10 is that its design resembles the iPhone, especially the rear of the device. While it isn't going to be made available in the US, the P10 is a really impressive, beautiful device worthy of your consideration.

Meizu Pro 6
When you want to import the best Chinese smartphone, features are an important thing to take into account. In principle, Chinese smartphones offer a good value for money, and this is indeed the case with the Meizu Pro 6 . The smartphone is impressive on many fronts but it has two weak points to take into account: no 800MHz 4G and a unique UI.
The phone is well-designed, but that's only because it's an iPhone clone. Fans of stock Android might get scared away by the unique FlymeOS, which is based on Android 6.0 Marshmallow. The 5.7-inch display is protected by Gorilla Glass 3. Under the hood, there's a Mediatek MT6797T Helio X25 processor, 4 GB of RAM and 32 to 64 GB of internal storage. It also has a 21 MP rear camera and a 5 MP selfie camera.
The Meizu Pro 6 was definitely inspired by the iPhone's design. © AndroidPIT
Lenovo ZUK Z1
You may not have heard of the ZUK Z1, bbut you'll wish you had. Backed by Lenovo, the ZUK Z1 has outstanding battery life, a rock-solid fingerprint scanner, good performance and a very decent camera, all for the low price of $220.
The ZUK Z1 also features a 5.5-inch Full HD display, Snapdragon 801, CyanogenMod OS 12 (based on Lollipop), 64 GB internal storage, 3 GB of RAM, a 4,100 mAh battery and 13 MP Sony sensor. Not bad at all.

Lenovo Vibe P1
Lenovo's Vibe P1 has one feature that will absolutely destroy what you thought was possible for a $160 phone: a 4,900 mAh battery. That's not a typo, the Vibe P1 has a battery that's double the size of many other smartphone batteries right now.
But that's not all – the Vibe P1 also delivers super fast-charging technology to get that monster battery charged pronto, as well as a fingerprint scanner, 5.5-inch Full HD display and Android Lollipop. Did we mention this thing only costs $160?

How do I get one of these phones?
Where there's a will, there's a way. In our device reviews, we always provide info on the best price for a device and share links for where you can buy one (just make sure you check the phone's LTE frequencies to ensure they will work with your carrier before you buy).
There are also a bunch of excellent online retailers in China willing to ship a device globally, many of which can be found in our article on how to buy Xiaomi phones in the US .
