New Delhi:
The French actress - who split from long- term partner Johnny Depp in June after 14 years with him - dislikes the term "soul mates" as she feels giving a term to a significant other doesn't allow for the fact relationships constantly evolve.
She said: "I believe in love and I believe in wanting to make it last.
"But as soon as you start to say: 'Here's my soul mate', it feels like you're done. Love is a constant, evolving emotion. And the fact of putting a title on it, whether it's your husband or your wife or your soul mate, then it seems like you know the end of the book. And I don't like to know the end of the book or the movie."
However, despite her views, Vanessa - who has children Lily-Rose, 13, and Jack, 10, with Johnny - admits being described as someone's soul mate is a "beautiful" thing.
She added to W magazine: "But I mean it's beautiful when one day someone tells you you're their soul mate - it makes you feel good."
