First come, first serve

It used to be an amateur dream of every pair of teenage eyes once upon a time to find "the" soulmate, fall in love and live happily ever after. However, if you come to think of it, it seems nothing more than a fairy tale today, when sometimes people use relationships as "hops", as one of my friends calls it. I don't beileve in the concept of so-called soulmates. I think you can get along with a number of people, some of them might be a lot like you, while others might be in complete contrast. A few of these can be people you really click with. It's not that you can fall in love with only one of these in all your life. It's just a matter of who you met first.

So, in my opinion, there's no such thing as soulmates, it's rather a sheer matter of chance. Another one of life's concepts you can easily map to the principles of computer science, it's a FCFS (First-Come-First-Serve) queueing algorithm.
