It occurs to me that, at least physically, Clark is now the disguise and Superman is closer to the real man.
I hadn't thought of it quite like that, but you are exactly right.
I imagine that he won't live for another century without finding love again, even though it's right that he should feel that way now. Despite the idea of soul mates, I can't believe that there is only one person in the world that Clark could love, but that's where my philosophy departs from the show's.
I, too, dislike the whole soul mates concept. But even if one were to subscribe to it, Clark would likely fall in love again -- he would just have to wait two or three decades for Lois' soul to be reborn and to grow up. Of course, some would consider this the ultimate instance of cradle-robbing.
Joy,
