Then I would say that I do not believe in the idea of "the one." First, if there was a "one," the probability of meeting him or her in a world with five or six billion people is micro-nano-infinitesimal. Second, I think people get too hung up on the idea of "the one." (See: McBeal, Ally.). Third, the whole idea of "the one" goes back to an ancient Greek philosophical joke.

But if you're asking can partners truly love each other and do the things you say for each other, then yes, there is true love.

Eta: saw your next post after I wrote. Think of all the people you know with serious flaws who have partners. Yes, there are people out there who can love you and whom you can love. You just have to look for them. (Says the almost-twice-divorced woman!)
Thanks for this!
