So what happens after you finally meet your soulmate?

What happens next?

I must admit, there was naivety in me.

I thought it would end perfectly once the all-important, crucial link was found.

After all, wasn't the whole point of love about being together once you've finally found it?

Many spend all their lives looking for that single one to complete them. Some are lucky. Most settle for second-best or third-best because they are too afraid to try, too afraid to lose. And then are those who never do, however hard they try.

As it turns out, the only thing that I learned from this whole search, this whole journey of self-discovery, is this.

Soulmates don't always end up being together in the end.

Reality of life always constricts us. Gets in the way. Always gets between us. It always does.

Our sense of practicality always wins over. All those years of bourgeoisie education have effected its grasp over our minds.

There may be many reasons why. But the most powerful ones are often, ironically, the most trivial.

And so, there's no happy ending to this tale.
