What did he tell joseph ? Joseph was to fulfill a the prophecy that Jesus would come from the lineage of David
Why did he give Adam a wife ? did Adam ask ? no but he was alone and had God made two women for him to choose between one would have ended up without a man and therefore alone...all due respect dude you're choosing very specific examples (or I call them exceptions) to prove your point...
What would you say about Samson ? what about Samson? He chose his own person without God's Divine council...

I would agree - 100%
crazy begets crazy
People want what is bad for them - even spouses
People take abuse from others, because they have a twisted view of themselves, i can't do any better, I deserve the way they treat me
Then they realize, oh that nice person, was way better than this loser, hey nice person, I like you now that I have screwed up my life, can you help me as I put this burden on you that somehow I expect you to carry?
I tried to be non-gender specific lol

You're right about finding out till after marriage, with certain people, what type of person they are. However, I think this is where commitment comes into play. People change everyday, you learn something new about someone everyday. Comes down to commitment.
Of course, I don't condone abuse. That is a different topic.

I must have been very sheltered (or quite naive) because I grew up thinking that when people said "the ONE", they meant "they one I will marry" rather than "the one and only person I'm destined to be with and with whom I share perfect compatibility". Kinda like saying "my future spouse". I always hoped that Id only have one spouse in my future so the term "the one" made sense to me.
When I was dating my now fiance, I remember asking myself if he was the one. I never meant "one" in a "soulmate" way. I just meant "I wonder if he's the one I'll end up marrying".
Anyway, not sure if I'm making much sense. I do think the soulmate stuff is silly

Whether or not there is a God-ordained "The One" for you can be debated until doomsday, but if you're going out with someone and you ask God if this person is a good one to get serious with He'll show you.
I remember one friend of mine was going with a nice young lady he was thinking seriously about proposing to. He asked God to show him if it was the right thing to do. The very next date they had... "I saw more red flags than a chinese parade!" What is in the heart will come out, and if you ask God He'll make sure you get the information you need.
