soul mate
Destined romantic partner
A soul mate is a person with whom one shares a deep, natural connection—someone who feels uniquely suited to you in temperament, values, or understanding.
The term often implies romantic destiny: I knew the moment we met that she was my soul mate.
But it can describe profound platonic bonds too: My college roommate became my soul mate.
Also spelled soulmate.
