No, you shouldn't have to except it if you are unhappy in a relationship. I believe in fate and that everything happens for a reason, But we also have free will! Get out of the unhapppy relationship and see where that takes you. Live life to the full!

It sounds to me like there is a person that will be making some sort of decision, or will take some action that will lead to something affecting the other person in a very important way.

That depends on whether you believe fate to be a human construct; a personified entity used as a tool to explain and justify circumstances which effect the human condition. Getting philosophical here, if you do perceive this to be the case, does this make it "real" as it would then exist within your own perception of reality? Just a thought.

fate is the path you cross no matter which path you take to get there. most people think fate is your ending but faith is really when you hit set checkpoints in your life, reguardless of what you took to get there.

Life is all about choices.  Even when we are presented with horrible conditions, we always have more than one reaction or action possible.\nIf fate puts us where we are, our choices determine the outcome.

To a degree. I also, however believe in free will. It's sometimes a fine line, don't you think?

I believe that to an extent, we all have a hand in what the future holds for us. But, that for the most part, it was already decided for us while we were still in our Mothers' womb! We can aspire for things in our lives...but if they weren't meant to be...they just won't happen! I see myself as a Bestselling Author...! Well, I hope to achieve lots of things in my future...talking about them may invite evil...I'm a bit superstitious!! Good question, though!

Yes, but I also believe in free will and the ability to shape our path to reaching our destiny.

Yes, everything happens for a reason, and some things make no sense that happen to you.

Looking at past events, it is easy to chalk up coincedences as fate.  But looking forward, nothing is written.  You get to decide your fate.\n\nLove,\nme

People want something to believe in. If they do not believe in something than chaos will erupt.

Not only do I believe in luck, but luck is a real thing. Probabilities explain certain events, but repeatedly beating probabilities is what "luck" is.

those who believe in god ....believe that there is someone up there looking after them.those who don't ....want to believe that they assume power over their own fate....they control their own lives.\n\ni think that it doesn't matter whether u believe in god or not...the loss is still too big....the only answer is to help someone else...not to feel such pain you have experienced...maybe we can make a difference and maybe we can't but at least we have tried.\n\nif there is a god....maybe he'll be merciful\nand if their isn't ...at least we changed someone's life and gave him control

It's possible to believe in anything.  The question is whether you make decisions on the basis of what you believe (i.e., on mere feelings) or on what you know.\n\nAs for free will, I suspect it's an illusion.  We are driven by our hormones and our fears and our desires; we are conditioned by our education and our environment; so when we make any decision we actually have less "freedom" than we imagine.\n\nHaving said that, we are nevertheless responsible for the consequences of whatever choices we make.  It's cowardly and dishonest to blame "fate" or "god" or "the movements of the planets" for what we've done or failed to do.

i believe its important to establish who we are. however, i don't believe in fate, so i dont think we need to understand what we are doing here. i think we need to understand what we WANT to do here
