Klaus: There is a word in German. Lebenslangerschicksalsschatz. And the closest translation would be "lifelong treasure of destiny". And Victoria is wunderbar, but she is not my lebenslangerschicksalsschatz. She is my beinaheleidenschaftsgegenstand. [...] It means, "the thing that is almost the thing that you want, but not quite". That is Victoria to me.
Ted: How do you know she's not lebenslangerschicksalsschatz? I mean, maybe as the years go by she'll get lebenslangerschicksalsschatz-ier.
Klaus: Lebenslangerschicksalsschatz is not something develops over time. It is something that happens instantaneously. It courses through you, like the water of a river after a storm, filling you and emptying you all at once. You feel it throughout your body, in your hands, in your heart, in your stomach, in your skin. [...] Have you ever felt this way about someone?
Ted: ...yeah, I think so.
Klaus: If you have to think about it, you have not felt it.
Ted: And you're absolutely sure you'll find that someday?
Klaus: Of course. Everyone does eventually. You just never know when or where.

I finally found the love of a lifetime
A love to last my whole life through
I finally found the love of a lifetime
Forever in my heart
I finally found the love of a lifetime
A love to last my whole life through
I finally found the love of a lifetime
Forever in my heart
I finally found the love of a lifetime
—Firehouse, "Love of a Lifetime"
…'Cause I found what the world is searching for
Here, right here, my dear
I don't have to look no more
And all my days
I've hoped and I've prayed
For someone just like you
Make me feel the way you do
Here, right here, my dear
I don't have to look no more
And all my days
I've hoped and I've prayed
For someone just like you
Make me feel the way you do

In the instant that you love someone
In the second that the hammer hits
Reality runs up your spine
And the pieces finally fit
And all I ever needed was the one
Like freedom fields where wild horses run
When stars collide, like you and I
No shadows block the sun
You're all I've ever needed
Baby you're the one
In the second that the hammer hits
Reality runs up your spine
And the pieces finally fit
And all I ever needed was the one
Like freedom fields where wild horses run
When stars collide, like you and I
No shadows block the sun
You're all I've ever needed
Baby you're the one
— Elton John, "The One"
I just can't live without you
There's just no me without you now
I'd be so lost without you
I need my arms around you
There's just no me without you now
I'd be so lost without you
I need my arms around you
— Peabo Bryson and Regina Belle, "Without You (Love Theme from Leonard Part 6)"
Their bond. No matter what reality I visited, no matter what world I went to, no matter how many times she hurt him and in turn he hurt her back, they remained bonded by an inexplicable force that I later discovered to be destiny. Fate you can change and play with, but destiny? Impossible.
It's not a matter of them being soul mates; it is far simpler than that. They are the same, two different pieces of the same cloth, they are one, and no matter how much the world, their lives, parents and circumstances drive them to hate each other, their bond will always remain the same. They are one.

Lily: What's a soulmate?
Dawn: It's a.. Well, it's like a best friend, but more. It's the one person in the world that knows you better than anyone else. It's someone who makes you a better person, well, actually they don't make you a better person... you do that yourself— because they inspire you. A soulmate is someone who you carry with you forever. It's the one person who knew you, and accepted you, and believed in you before anyone else did or when no one else would. And no matter what happens.. you'll always love them.
Soulmates aren’t rare, they aren’t, you’ll meet a thousand soulmates, just as you’ll live a thousand lives.
North Stars though, they are. By chance you’ll meet someone who encompass the way home. Someone who is home. And knowing them is like being found with never knowing you were lost.
And you will love them. God, you will love them as they are because they are yours. They exist beneath your skin, in your veins, to your bones. They were written in some far off past life.
There is no force that is more than they are.
You are born half in love with them, and to have them, to be theirs, is like nothing else. Nothing would dare to be.

If there's no such thing as true love, then all love is untrue.

"In the Night World there's this idea called the soulmate principle. It says that every person has one soulmate out there, just one. And that person is perfect for you and is your destiny."
