Day 224: Rhetorical Question: Have we evolved to have soul mates?

This morning, after my shower, I got to thinking. If species evolve so that their bodies work to obtain only the things they need, and humans are attracted to other beings on chemical levels for different reasons- then have we evolved to have soul mates? Like, as a race, are we meant to be predestined to be with one person? While we don’t need others to survive, it does make life happier to have a mate. And we all have different personal attractions but we are all attracted to others for the same instinctual reasons. On a very superficial level, I think it’s possible.
