A brother or sister is often the closest to a person in the world. Sometimes you want to call a friend this way, but a real blood brother can only be the one with whom you have at least one common parent - mother or father. In addition, there are godbrothers, half-brothers, named brothers and, of course, cousins. Once you start to figure out which relatives are related to whom, it is very easy to get confused. And to understand, for example, who the cousin’s cousin is, becomes almost impossible.
What does the term mean?
Cousins are those whose parents are blood brothers or sisters. That is, either your brother's mother is your aunt, or your father is your uncle. These laws of kinship apply regardless of gender. It’s just that if it is a female relative, then he is called a cousin, and if it is a male relative, he is called a cousin.
Literally, the word “cousin” means “belonging to two families.” And in a figurative meaning, this word can be understood as “belonging to the second degree of kinship.” By the way, other relatives can also be cousins: grandparents, aunts and uncles.
The need to determine degrees of relationship arose in those days when it was customary to have many children - at least five. They, in turn, had the same number of children, and in the end it became completely difficult to figure out who was dealing with whom. But it is also wrong to exclude a sibling from the kinship of children - after all, this is not the most distant relative. And, besides, in that era, family ties were very helpful, and people clung to them. Nowadays, city residents usually limit themselves to communicating with relatives of the first generation, or at most the second. But earlier, the importance of family ties played a big role, and cousins, uncles and aunts were considered close people, despite the fact that there were so many of them.
Degree of relationship
Relatives do not always treat each other well, and sometimes they would prefer not to have anything in common, but this does not depend on their desire. Kinship is a connection between people, both emotional and legal, which is determined either by the presence of common ancestors, or by the act of marriage or adoption.
Relationships can be consanguineous or non-consanguineous (for example, through marriage and adoption). In addition, it has degrees. In addition to the emotional coloring, these degrees play a role in receiving an inheritance. Thus, first of all, the inheritance will be given to the closest relatives, and to second-order relatives only in the absence of the first ones. Immediate family members include parents, children, spouses and siblings. If there are no second-order relatives, then third-degree relatives can also claim the inheritance, and so on.
In the Russian tradition, there are dozens of names for degrees of kinship. This is due to the fact that our ancestors used to live in large communities, and belonging to a large family gave advantages, since it was easier to survive together.
It is noteworthy that in villages a similar attitude towards kinship can still be found today. At village weddings there are at least 100 people. And in the city it became very difficult to maintain such family ties, and such interesting names of kinship as father-in-chief, father-in-law, or daughter-in-law became archaic.
Stepbrother
Do not confuse cousins and stepbrothers. Stepbrothers are not blood. They became brothers as a result of the marriage between their parents. After all, after such a marriage, children begin to live together like brothers. But they are neither official nor blood relatives. If children are of different sexes, then theoretically they can even get married, but in practice this is condemned and considered immoral. Since many still see a hint of incest in this.
Cousins
There is an opinion that cousin is the same cousin, because in English and French this combination of words is translated as cousin. But here it is worth noting that literal translation is not always possible due to conceptual differences in cultures. Both the English and the French use the word “cousin” to designate a distant blood relative in the same tribe as someone, and not necessarily in the second. That is, they also call second and fourth cousins cousins.
And if we transfer this word into the Russian language, then it is also only as a common name for all brothers, except for siblings. And “cousin,” accordingly, is the name for sisters of all tribes.
Who are the wives' or husbands' cousins?
They are relatives, naturally, not by blood. If we talk about who the husband’s cousin is, then we can say that he is the cousin-in-law. But, in fact, only a sibling is considered a relative and is simply called a brother-in-law.
Questions about, for example, who the wife’s cousin is with her husband, are asked more for the sake of educational interest, and not in order to maintain such family ties. In the Russian tradition, this degree of relationship is called “seventh water on jelly.”
Children of cousins
Such family ties as grandmother - grandson, aunt - niece are preserved even with cousins, but with a prefix. And if we talk about a specific case, for example, about who your cousin’s daughter is, then she is your cousin’s niece. And the daughter of a second cousin will be a second cousin, that is, a niece in the third generation. Who is your cousin's son? Accordingly, a cousin's nephew.
The children of cousins themselves will also have a relationship in relation to each other, but this time it will be threefold. This means they can be called second cousins. This relationship is already quite distant, and often they do not even know each other closely. But it’s still worth knowing about such relatives.
Can cousins get married?
This question has two sides: moral and formal. According to Article 14, paragraph 2 of the Family Code of the Russian Federation, such marriages are possible. But from a moral, ethical and genetic point of view, this is extremely undesirable. This is still too close a relationship, and it can cause genetic abnormalities in the children that such spouses have.
In the history of monarchical states, including the Russian Empire, there are many cases when, in order to maintain power, people married cousins. And since an heir was needed, they had to have children. The latter almost always had either poor health or some kind of abnormality.
Hemophilia of Tsarevich Alexei Nikolaevich Romanov was a hereditary disease of the Romanovs and, remarkably, other royal houses of Europe in the 19th-20th centuries. It was called “the royal disease” in those days. Now geneticists are very likely to claim that this pathology was caused by numerous incest in the reigning clans. Because then, in order to preserve the throne within the same clan, they did not disdain marriage between cousins, without seeing anything immoral in it.
Fourth and fifth cousins
The terms “fourth cousin”, “fifth cousin” and so on are formed rather by analogy and are rarely used in real life. In some cultures, it is customary for all numerous relatives to gather for weddings or funerals, and then at such events they begin to remember who is a fourth cousin and who is a sixth cousin. But, in fact, these are already very distant relatives. Whether such people should be considered relatives in the modern world is a philosophical question. After all, if you start digging even deeper, then all people on Earth are relatives to each other in the fourteenth generation.

Are husband and wife related or not? It is this question that we have to study further. Russian legislation in this area has many issues and nuances. If you learn about them, you can avoid a huge number of problems. So are spouses related to each other?
Consanguinity
The answer is actually not as simple as it seems. It all depends on the situation and how one understands direct kinship.
From a biological point of view, spouses are not relatives. They are two separate, independent individuals who produce offspring. Are husband and wife related? No. They have no blood relationship.
By the way, marriages between close relatives are prohibited in Russia. Therefore, even from the point of view of legislation, spouses cannot have common relatives. Otherwise, the marriage will not be concluded in the registry office.
Civil marriage
Is a wife legally related to her husband? As a rule, they do not talk about biological kinship in the legislation of the Russian Federation. Can spouses be considered related to each other in a legal sense?
No, if we are talking about living in a civil marriage. More precisely, about cohabitation - when a couple lives together, leads a common life, sometimes even has children, but their relationship is not officially registered in the registry office.
Accordingly, the spouse in such a marriage will lose many rights offered by the state to official husbands and wives. But more on that a little later. To begin with, it is necessary to find out whether persons who entered into a marriage can be considered relatives.
Official relations
Are husband and wife related or not? If living together is secured by registration in the registry office, then so-called family relationships arise between people. From the moment of marriage, spouses are considered members of the same family. 
In part, they can be called relatives. However, some areas of Russian legislation place spouses in a separate category. Thus, husband and wife are members of the same family. Every citizen should remember this fact.
Criminal and Civil Law
Now a little about what exactly the legislation of the Russian Federation says regarding family ties between spouses. In Criminal Law there are the concepts of “spouses” and “close relatives”. Thus, there is no need to testify against these categories of citizens. Close relatives usually include parents, grandchildren, grandparents, brothers and sisters. Spouses, as is easy to see, belong to a different category of citizens. Is the husband related to the wife? According to criminal law, no. A spouse is a member of a new family created by registering the relationship between a man and a woman in the registry office.
Similarly, spouses can be classified as a separate category in civil law. When arrested, all close relatives are required to notify about this event. And that is why questions arise regarding the family ties of the spouses. After all, a citizen can only have family members, not relatives. In this case, husbands and wives can be interpreted as close relatives.
Tax law
In Russia, certain tax benefits are provided for citizens conducting certain transactions with close relatives. So, for example, you can count on:
- exemption from tax on transactions;
- no need to pay taxes;
- transfer of inheritance and gifts without additional costs.
Are husband and wife legally related in this area? Yes. The term “close relatives” in Tax Law usually means not only brothers, sisters, grandparents, grandchildren and parents, but also spouses. 
Housing Code
But in Housing Law there is no concept of kinship as such. Instead, the term "family member" is used. Are husband and wife related or not? In Housing Law, spouses are considered members of the same family. Therefore, we can assume some kind of relationship between them, secured not by blood, but by a legal document.
It is also customary to include parents of spouses and children as family members, especially if they all live together. If a third person moves in with blood relatives, he will automatically be recognized as a family member, despite the lack of real kinship.
Labor Code
A very mixed picture is emerging in the field of Labor legislation. Is the wife a close relative of her husband? It's difficult to answer. As practice shows, each employer decides on his own.
In the Labor legislation of the Russian Federation, close relatives are prohibited from working in the same municipal institutions, especially subordinate to each other. Also, when accepting a citizen into public service, all close relatives will be checked for criminal records. 
In fact, in some companies, spouses are not considered close relatives. They work calmly together. When hired by government organizations, a husband/wife will most likely be checked for a criminal record. Therefore, we can come to the conclusion that the Labor Code of the Russian Federation does not provide an accurate definition of the relationship of spouses.
Hereditary matters
Are husband and wife legally related? Based on all of the above, we can come to the conclusion that, in general, the spouses are related to each other, although not by blood. Only in some cases will the husband/wife be classified as a separate category of family member.
In inheritance matters, kinship plays an important role. Especially if property is transferred to citizens without a will. In hereditary matters there are several lines of kinship. If there is no will, then the property is divided according to law. And here the degree of relationship with the citizen plays a role.
Are husband and wife related or not? If we talk about inheritance matters, then spouses are one of the main heirs. They, like children, are the ones who receive the inheritance first. This means that the wife and husband are relatives to each other. 
Medicine
What can we say about medicine? The fact is that medical organizations have a certain internal routine. For example, they cannot disclose information about patients’ health status to third parties. And only close relatives can visit the seriously ill.
In this situation, the presence of a registered marriage plays a huge role. Official husband and wife are considered relatives in medicine. In a civil marriage, there is no kinship as such. Medical institutions treat common-law wives and husbands as strangers.
Results
Based on all of the above, we can come to the conclusion that the topic under study in Russian legislation does not have an unambiguous interpretation. Are husband and wife related or not? It all depends on the circumstances and the area of law/life involved.
Husbands and wives are 100% members of the same family and spouses. Some believe that they become relatives to each other at the moment of marriage. Someone expresses the opinion that spouses receive the status of relatives after the birth of common children.
Most often, husbands and wives are considered as relatives, but not blood. Former spouses are former relatives, but nothing more. Often they are not considered close people at all. 
Close relatives are most often parents, brothers, sisters, wives, husbands, granddaughters, grandchildren, grandparents, children. Usually the latter refers to not only relatives, but also adopted children. All this needs to be paid attention to. Especially in hereditary disputes. Close relatives and spouses in Russia are almost the same thing. Therefore, we can say with confidence that husbands and wives in an official marriage have quite a lot of rights and opportunities.

Result: the court of first instance ruled in favor of the plaintiff and demanded that the direct heir return the car to Semenov. “In this case, the court’s decision could not have been different, since based on the totality of evidence presented by the plaintiff, it followed that the disputed property was acquired precisely at the expense of funds belonging to the plaintiff,” explained Anush Harutyunyan, leading legal adviser at the law firm Gavryushkin Partners. – The main problem of the losing side was the failure to provide evidence in favor of its position. It is impossible to predict or prevent the situation of a possible dispute with relatives regarding inheritance, since in situations concerning property it is difficult to rely on human good faith.

But the Korobkovs lost a lot of time, and the court sided with their older brother. Such cases have a positive outlook if at the time of inheritance one of the heirs was a minor.
Even years later, an heir whose rights have been infringed may receive a court decision in his favor.” Changing a surname is an obstacle to a deal. It happens that a change of surname can greatly interfere with the acceptance of an inheritance.
This is especially true for daughters who have been married more than once. This is how it happened in the history of the Vasilyev family. A dispute arose between the heirs, reminiscent of the previous story.
The daughter from her first marriage accidentally found out that her father had died much earlier than her step-relatives had told her. Due to the fact that the heiress lived in Israel, the conduct of the case was greatly complicated.
But she was lucky: she managed to meet the deadline established by law and filed for inheritance.
Keyword: right to inheritance
The heirs of the fifth stage will be relatives of the fourth degree of kinship: cousins and granddaughters - children of the testator’s own nephews and nieces - and great-uncles and grandmothers - siblings of his grandparents. It should be borne in mind that cousins and granddaughters cannot inherit property , if it is not accepted, they refuse the inheritance, are deprived of the inheritance or are excluded from inheritance, the heirs of the second line of inheritance - brothers and sisters, since according to the laws of formal logic, in the absence of heirs of the second line, there cannot be cousins at all in nature.6.

These applications may be submitted to the notary in person, by mail, by another person at the request, or through a representative. If submitted by mail or by another person, the authenticity of the applicant's signature is certified by a notary before sending the application.
When accepting an inheritance through a representative, he must be authorized by an appropriate power of attorney. Actual method of acceptance According to paragraph 2 of Art. 1153 of the Civil Code, actual acceptance presupposes physical possession of the inherited property and treating it as one’s own property.
Until proven otherwise in court, the successor is considered to have actually accepted the inheritance if he:
- owns and manages property
- protects it from external attacks
- maintains it at his own expense
- pays off the debts of a brother or sister.
Based on actual acceptance, after the expiration of the period established for that time (Art.
Inheritance of brothers and sisters after their death
Secondly, take the remaining half, combine it with other property of the deceased, which is not the common property of the spouses, and divide it equally among all the heirs of the corresponding order. For example, after the death of a person, one of his relatives was left with a wife and mother, and among the property: an apartment and 2 cars, and the apartment was purchased during the marriage and therefore belongs to the common property of the spouses, but the cars do not.
In this situation, the wife must first be allocated half of the spouses’ common property, that is, 50% of the apartment. The remaining 50% and the car are divided equally between the wife and mother: 25% of the apartment and the car.
As a result, the wife is owed 75% of the apartment (50% + 25%) and the car, and the mother is owed 25% of the apartment and the car. Only the most typical situations have been described here, since it is impossible to cover all the variety of cases that occur in life.
How can an inheritance be taken away?
The remaining heirs learned about the death of their father almost two years later - from distant relatives, through social networks. The trial began: the plaintiffs demanded to set a new deadline in order to equally divide the inheritance.
According to them, the older brother deliberately withheld information about the death of his father, and the younger children did not have the physical opportunity and means to come to their parents from afar (the sister was on maternity leave, the younger brother was studying). The defendant said that the children were not particularly interested in their father’s condition during his lifetime and are now pursuing selfish goals. Result: the court sided with the older brother, leaving him with the entire inheritance. “According to the law, you need to enter into an inheritance 6 months from the date of death of a person,” explains Alexander Shcherbinin, deputy chairman of the Sterligov and Partners Bar Association. – If in this case the deadline had to be postponed by 1-2 months, the court would certainly have done so.
Mandatory share in inheritance
If after death a person has only a grandfather and an aunt left, then the grandfather will inherit all the property as the heir of the second stage, and the aunt, being the heir of the third stage, will again receive nothing. If there are several heirs of the same line, then the inheritance is divided equally between them. For example, after death there was a son, daughter and father of the deceased. All three of them are among the heirs of the first stage, therefore they have the right to receive an inheritance.
The share in the inheritance of each of them will be 1/3. Determining the circle of heirs may be complicated by taking into account the appearance of the already mentioned obligatory heirs, recognition of the heir as unworthy, the heir missing the deadline for accepting the inheritance, challenging the will, etc.
Can a sister claim an inheritance if her brother has a wife and children?
Spouse's share in inheritance The spouse of the deceased, in addition to being the heir of the first priority, also has the right to 1/2 of all jointly acquired property. According to the Family Code of the Russian Federation, all property acquired by spouses during marriage is their common property and each spouse has the right to half of this property. To learn more about what property belongs to the common property of spouses, read our article “General issues regarding the division of property of spouses during a divorce.” Thus, in order to determine the size of the spouse’s share in inheritance, it is necessary, firstly, to draw up a list of the spouses’ common property and allocate half of this property to the spouse as the share due to him in accordance with the Family Code of the Russian Federation.
The order of inheritance according to the law is determined mainly by the degree of relationship between the heir and the testator, taking into account the degree of consanguinity and other relationships equivalent to it according to the law. The degree of kinship is determined by the number of births separating one relative from another.
Since the birth of the testator himself is not included in this number, therefore, relatives of the first degree of kinship are parents and children of the second degree of kinship - grandparents and grandchildren of the third degree of kinship - great-grandparents, great-grandfathers and great-grandchildren. The degree of relationship is established on the basis of legal acts (documents) issued by authorized government bodies. Such legal documents include a birth certificate, marriage certificate, etc.1. Close relatives - heirs of the first stage - are the parents, children, spouse of the testator.
Can a half-sister claim an inheritance?
A resident of the city of Lepel asks a question: My brother recently died. He is survived by his wife and two children. He did not leave a will for his property. Can I, as a sister, claim his inheritance? I forgot to add that I work and am absolutely healthy. Yulia Zayats, lawyer: In accordance with Article 1057 of the Civil Code of the Republic of Belarus, the heirs according to the law of the first priority are the children, spouse and parents of the deceased. According to the law, heirs of each subsequent line receive the right to inherit in the event of the absence of heirs of the previous line, their removal from the inheritance, their failure to accept the inheritance or refusal of it.
Civil Code, the legislator provides for the possibility of successors to refuse to accept an inheritance, including in favor of other persons. This procedure is feasible within the period provided for in Art. 1154
Civil Code for the acceptance of inherited property. Moreover, the legislator allows refusal of inheritance, even after its formal or actual acceptance. Attention According to paragraph 1 of Art. 1159 of the Civil Code, in order to renounce the inheritance in favor of the brother, the successor must submit an appropriate application for refusal to the notary at the place of opening of the inheritance.
If a notary has already opened an inheritance case in relation to such hereditary mass, then an application to renounce the inheritance in favor of the brother is submitted to such a notary. Provisions of Art.

We're dealing with an inheritance case here. We are going to prove the relationship between the client and the testator, a second cousin.
And then I decided to clarify which order the heiress - second cousin - belonged to.
Turns out. NOT TO ANYONE
because The right of representation applies only to the first three queues. maximum for cousins.
and the last 6th line (not counting the 7th - stepsons, stepdaughters and stepfathers, stepmothers) are cousins, cousins. cousins great-grandchildren.
Am I right, maybe I'm wrong, correct me.

It turns out that second cousins and sisters do not inherit
Yes. It’s just, to put it mildly, the seventh water on jelly. Prove that you are a dependent.
-Guest- 15 Sep 2006
They can also inherit if:
1. specified in the will
2. were dependent on the deceased
Alderamin 15 Sep 2006
They can also inherit if:
3. there are no heirs of previous orders or they are deprived of the right to inherit.
In this case, would it be difficult for you to name the queue to which they belong?
--Valentina-- Sep 15, 2006
I didn’t have the codex at hand, but my memory seems to be failing me. so please accept with an amendment:
3. in the absence of other heirs by law. disabled dependents of the testator inherit independently as the eighth priority. clause 3 art. 1148 Civil Code of the Russian Federation
Disabled people include
- persons recognized as disabled people of groups 1, 2, 3
- persons who have reached a certain age (women 55 years old, men 60 years old)

Partially capable persons (? I saw this wording somewhere, I don’t want to clarify, like in pension legislation)
- citizens with limited legal capacity. Article 30 Civil Code
You're talking all sorts of bullshit. Partially capable - you yourself invented the term, but those with limited legal capacity are able to work. For some reason, minors were not mentioned at all.
And where did you get the idea that this second cousin was dependent on the testator - it’s completely unclear.

3. there are no heirs of previous orders or they are deprived of the right to inherit.
Alderamin Sep 30, 2014
3. there are no heirs of previous orders or they are deprived of the right to inherit.
But which article says this? As I understand it, if there were a clear rule from which it would follow that if “there are no heirs of previous orders or they are deprived of the right to inherit,” the rest of the relatives will inherit, there would be no reason to create this topic. The topic, however, is interesting. Now, if, indeed, the deceased has no one except his second cousins, then should the property be recognized as escheat, or what? With a living relative? In my opinion, this is not fair.
A bill has been submitted to the State Duma, which provides for the recognition as legal heirs of second cousins, as well as other citizens - up to a very distant degree of kinship, inclusive.
According to the draft law, if there are no heirs of the first, second and third stages, relatives up to the sixth degree of kinship inclusive will receive the right to inherit. It is proposed to include children of cousins' great-grandchildren and great-granddaughters (great-great-great-grandchildren and great-great-granddaughters), children of cousins' nephews and nieces (second cousins and granddaughters) and children of first cousins (second cousins).
According to the authors of the bill, expanding this circle of persons will significantly reduce the possibility of inheritance passing to the state and will protect the private property of citizens. In addition, this will ensure guarantees of the rights and legitimate interests of residents of Crimea and Sevastopol, since previously they were in the legal system of Ukraine, where persons up to the sixth degree of kinship inclusive have the right to inherit by law.
It is also noted that a similar practice of inheritance exists in Belarus; accordingly, the adoption of the bill will eliminate disagreements in substantive law between Moscow and Minsk, which is important in connection with the creation of the Eurasian Union.
Currently, the right to inheritance belongs to heirs of the first stage - children, spouse and parents of the deceased (grandchildren and their descendants inherit by right of representation); heirs of the second stage - full and half brothers and sisters, grandparents on the father's and mother's side (their children inherit by right of representation) heirs of the third stage - full and half-siblings of parents (uncles and aunts), as well as their children (cousins) by right of representation.

while it seems that you are offering something illegal.
Well, say that you are young and inexperienced! But the essence was immediately grasped. And here there is no other choice: either everything will go to the insatiable government officials (and they are the kind of thieves) or they will grab this property for themselves. Within the limits of the law, of course, a complete escapade
But that’s it) then, if anything happens, I’ll contact you for a paid consultation.

Isn’t that what my post #8 in the topic is about?

I apologize for the stupid question, but the right to inheritance (hereditary transmission) by the right of representation (clause 2 of Article 1142) takes precedence over the right of the heir from the second priority?
It’s impossible to understand what you meant.
Kazan2502 10 Dec 2014
Who has the right to the right to inheritance (hereditary transmission) - the person specified in paragraph 2 of Art. 1142 or a relative from the second line?
In short, is the right to inheritance of a deceased heir inherited by his grandchildren (right of representation)?
rain man 10 Dec 2014
Who has the right to the right to inheritance (hereditary transmission) - the person specified in paragraph 2 of Art. 1142
First of all, you need to understand Art. 1156 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. it's about hereditary transmission.
heirs by right of representation are indicated not only in paragraph 2 of Art. 1142 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, another paragraph 2 of Art. 1143 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, and paragraph 2 of Art. 1144 Civil Code of the Russian Federation
In short, the right to inheritance of a deceased heir is inherited by his grandchildren (right of representation)
grandchildren inherit by right of representation.
If something is unclear to you, then take a breath, calm down and describe the situation clearly and in great detail, for example, such and such a person has died, it is known about such and such heirs, who will be the heir in such a situation.

Kazan2502. if a grandson is called to inherit by right of representation, then he is equated to the heir of the first stage, and the “relative of the second stage” disappears.

Stuck between Ukrainian and Russian inheritance laws in Crimea. The testator died in April 2014. The referendum passed, but the notarial legislation of Ukraine. The heiress, second cousin, filed an application for inheritance with the notary, the only heir, a pensioner, has a court decision on the recognition of kinship in hand for 2014. When entering into an inheritance, the notary does not refuse, but also does not issues an inheritance because since 2015, according to the legislation of the Russian Federation, there are no second cousins in inheritance. The notary advised to go to court for recognition of the right to inheritance. What are the chances of receiving an inheritance?

Lived where? Where is the property?
The referendum passed, but the notarial legislation of Ukraine.
Explain what notarial legislation has to do with this.
Heiress, second cousin, application for inheritance submitted to the notary
Do you have proof of filing?
the only heir, a pensioner, has a court decision on the recognition of kinship in hand for 2014. When entering into an inheritance, the notary does not refuse, but also does not issue the inheritance because since 2015, according to the legislation of the Russian Federation, there are no second cousins in inheritance.
What does a notary not refuse?
Do you believe in the existence of your soulmate on this planet? Or not even one? When do you meet someone and realize that you have known them all your life and even knew them many lifetimes ago? Sometimes this feeling may very well be a delusion or just something you want to believe. How do you know if you have really met someone emotionally and spiritually (or mentally) close to you? Do soul mates exist?
● Do soulmates even exist?
Yes! Just believe in such magic of the universe. This is the person with whom you are connected much more deeply than with others. You understand each other perfectly and are magnetically attracted to each other. You always have something to talk about, and you don’t lose this interest.
● How do you know that you are lucky to meet such a soul?
Such a person treats you with cordiality and kindness, he brings out the best in you (and you in him too). This is not just a comrade and like-minded person who shares some common interests with you. In fact, your soulmate may not even have many points of contact with you, but you are still somehow magically attracted to each other. This is an absolutely inexplicable relationship in which the two of you are together, you do not pretend and remain yourself, becoming.
Moreover, your affection is unconditional. Kindred souls hear each other and lend their shoulder, even if the partner does not do the most plausible things. Such a person will also confidently voice criticism to you if you need to be sobered up on something. He is next to you and brings out your best qualities, motivating you to become more successful and positive.
You went through difficulties together - the loss of a loved one, dismissal or a streak of failures - and you also came out of these difficulties together, becoming even stronger and more tempered. In addition, you teach each other to think rationally and give acceleration, stimulating progress. Moreover, you accept each other's imperfections and quirks, while feeling completely normal. Finding that kindred spirit doesn't mean writing a checklist of the right qualities that you're attracted to in a person. It is difficult to understand with your mind, but you clearly feel it when you communicate with “your” soul mate.
● Is it possible to make a mistake?
Sometimes you may decide that this person is definitely your soul mate. But people tend to make mistakes and wishful thinking. You can convince yourself that you and your partner are true soul mates, even if this is not the case at all. You can also find a loved one and push him away from you because of your personal problems. And your soul mate may also let you go. Because this person subconsciously knows that this is better for the two of you.
If you think that you have finally met this kindred spirit, then you will have to work hard to build a relationship. And then make changes if necessary. Such communication is worth maintaining when you both feel at the level that it is right.
By the way, do not draw a parallel between your soul mate and your partner (spouse, other half). Sometimes it may just be the best, regardless of gender.
● Is this a common occurrence?
Based on studies related to divorce, infidelity, and relationships, relationship satisfaction decreases over time, so people begin to look for a companion or comrade who will fill some void in their lives. Such a friend may not always be a soul mate. Most often, this is just a fellow traveler at this stage of life. Soul mates are not an ordinary phenomenon, but rather a rare meeting and luck.
