an old soul is a person who doesn’t feel they fit in with people their age, they usually don’t have many friends... they also are interested in older eras & antiques. they believe they had past lives, and they really miss their previous lives. old souls also are not interested in today’s technology since they feel it’s unnecessary, and they just prefer the old ways of doing things. old souls are usually very wise and feel spiritually connected to the past. they are very nice, but don’t be offended if they don’t seem to like you. they just aren’t interested in people, and don’t understand their own generation.
