soulmate

Destined romantic partner

A soulmate is someone with whom you share a deep, almost destined connection—a person who seems perfectly suited to you in temperament, values, or spirit.

The term usually describes romantic partners but can apply to close friends: I knew from our first conversation that she was my soulmate.

The concept implies that certain relationships transcend ordinary compatibility, as if two souls were meant to find each other.
