A mother-of-two has shared how she divorced her husband of 14 years only weeks after meeting a guy as she became convinced that he was her soulmate.

Amanda Trenfield from Sydney, Australia, explained that she wanted to reconnect with her husband so she decided to tag along on his three-day work conference.

During the first night, she locked eyes with a man named ‘Jason’ and felt a spark right away.

She had a ‘free-flowing’ conversation with Jason over dinner and when she returned to their hotel, her ‘soulmate’ offered her and her husband a drink.

Speaking with Mia Freedman on the No Filter podcast, Amanda said: “During the course of that evening we just stayed talking. There was a depth of connection I hadn’t felt before.”

The next day, Amanda called Jason’s room and asked if he would like to meet.

They went on a walk while her husband was at the conference.

“I opened the conversation with ‘I felt strange and very connected to you last night’ and he said he felt the same way,” Amanda said.

The two shared ‘a few kisses’ that morning before parting ways, not sure when or if they would see each other again.

The mother-of-two said that her life was changed after that morning but not in the way that she anticipated.

Only weeks after meeting Jason, she told her husband that she wanted a divorce.

Amanda then reached out to Jason and asked if he would like to re-connect but he said it was best if they didn’t stay in touch or see each other ever again.

“He was there in those moments and felt the connection like I did. He felt the kiss like I did. But he decided to say no and move forward with his life without looking back,” Amanda said.

People on Twitter were baffled by her decision to ‘blow up’ her life, with one person writing: “Never in my life have I encountered someone romanticizing a one night stand that didn’t even happen.”

Another said: “Yeah, the “I ditched my husband of 14 years to live my life with you after meeting you once because you’re my soulmate” might have been coming on a bit strong, no wonder he said um, no.”

A third added: “She was convinced they had a connection but I see no evidence they did. She just projected onto a random dude because she was unhappy. Which we’ve all been there but we don’t uproot our lives for it.”
