soulmates
Hearts perfectly matched
Soulmates are two people believed to be perfectly suited for each other, connected by a bond deeper than ordinary compatibility.
The term implies fate or destiny—that these individuals were meant to find one another: We knew from our first conversation that we were soulmates.
Though typically romantic, soulmates can describe profound platonic connections.
Also spelled as two words: soul mates.
