Origin and Evolution of soul mate

First Known Use: 1601 year

Language of Origin: Greek

Story behind the word: The concept of soul mates dates back to ancient Greek philosophy, specifically Plato's Symposium where he describes humans as originally having four arms, four legs, and a single head with two faces. These humans were split into two by the gods, resulting in soul mates forever yearning to be reunited.

Evolution of the word: Over time, the term 'soul mate' has evolved to represent a deep connection or bond between two individuals who are meant to be together. It is often used in a romantic context to describe a partner who is a perfect match for someone's soul.
