In matters of the heart, so-called 'soulmates' are simply mutual tolerance and acceptance.
When young, we always thought we could satisfy our psychological desires by dating a good-looking person. If we could turn this good-looking person into ourselves, it would be a coveted thing. After all, everyone is 'promiscuous,' regardless of gender; attractive people want to take a few glances.
But as time goes on, we increasingly find that even the most beautiful people will become tiresome. This isn't necessarily because our thoughts are too active; it's simply a matter of human nature. If you only build your emotions on appearances, due to an unstable foundation, the longer it takes, the more shaky it will become.
People always become increasingly lonely. When young, a simple greeting can become a friendship, and after growing up, even after a long time of getting along, we feel that it's not enough, and we feel particularly uncomfortable.

We always envy those 'soulmates,' and sigh that no one truly understands us, even if we have a partner, the feeling of loneliness hasn't gone away. Many people lament, 'A soulmate like that will never be found in this life; let's just make do for now.'
People are always lonely, just like physical hunger; mental hunger, though not enough to make you pale and thin, always erodes the inner self. That feeling of emptiness can only be understood by oneself.
A person is composed of both body and spirit; however, we often overemphasize the body, and when something is uncomfortable, we immediately seek recovery. But we neglect our spiritual needs, or we don't know how to address them.
There's no true compatibility between souls; so-called 'soulmates' are simply mutual compromise and acceptance. Compromise means sacrificing and losing something; it's for the sake of accommodating the other person's wishes. But often, we don't want to lose anything, so two people maintain their own conditions, and support each other.
We've all experienced that feeling of connection; during a passionate romance, we'll sacrifice a little of ourselves to please the other person—maybe we'll walk around boring streets with a beloved woman, or sit by the river fishing with a beloved man for a whole day.
But as time goes on, we tend to focus on ourselves, and we increasingly become accustomed to accommodating ourselves, only doing things that make ourselves happy, dismissing the other person's preferences, and not giving them hope.

The elderly couple Xiu and Ying, living a enviable rural life, as seen in the documentary 'The Fruits of Life.' They support each other for a lifetime, living a quiet and simple life, doing what they like, and encouraging and supporting each other.
Ying said that when she wanted to do something, her husband would support her, so she could always speak her mind throughout her life. Ying has never opposed her husband, allowing him to do what he wanted to do, giving him all his support.
They always prioritize the other person, making compromises. Good love is just a lifetime—let our souls run freely on the road that belongs to us, and at every glance, there's a smiling face.
The pain in marriage is simply because you once fell in love with everything he has, and eventually, you hated all his shortcomings. So, when you look at him, you're often impatient and disgusted, even unwilling to look at him again.
We often become anxious, blaming our partners for everything, and constantly denying their good qualities, and never giving them hope, believing that they do everything wrong, and it's not done consciously.
After repeated denials, two people will only become increasingly distant. When we're far apart, our bodies will also be far apart, so the small home will become increasingly unable to accommodate two people, and their mere existence will be more of a hindrance.
Everyone has independent souls and spiritual pursuits. It's not because we've fallen in love and become married that we become the property of another person; our preferences cannot be dictated by others. If we force someone to agree with us, two people will only hurt each other.
Why not try to accommodate the other person? Why can't we treat those seemingly nonsensical ideas as they did in our passionate romance, treating them as we used to?
'Soulmates' are created by ourselves, not created by heaven according to our habitual tendencies. Let's not force someone to accept our views.

To conclude:
Good love is simply mutual accommodation. We always think that love is like falling in love, but love is a nourishment for a lifetime, helping us complete all our dreams.
Let's first accommodate his life, let's first sacrifice ourselves for him to be happy and fulfilled.
Often, the more we get, the more we give.
