Tbh most of all what bothers me abt the "soulmates played straight" is just the assumption that the universe will choose right and in ur best interests, and any abuse that occurs is an aberration. Ik its not that serious buttttttt first of all. Thats not how any of it works. Abuse isnt an aberration it is the norm. Second of all how can u be ok putting that much trust in the design of some unknowable force of the universe. Crazy

#btw. this is also why id be all in for a tlt soulmate au where the entity choosing ur soulmates is VERY MUCH THERE. AND VERY FALLIBLE.#but alas.....#anyway this is all because i was thinking abt some soulmate au i read when i was a teenager #and there was specifically a character in an arranged marraige who had a Different Soulmate who was their True Love or whatever #and they didnt meet because the evil husband forced them into a marraige #and my gripe is like. well if that person isnt even in her life then why are they her soulmate. whats the point of that #stop shying away from it. the universe lets bad things happen to good ppl all the time #in fact the framework of soulmates would only make abuse worse
