In Wikipedia it goes like this: 

Current usage of the concept[edit source | editbeta]

In current usage, "soulmate" usually refers to a romantic partner, with the implication of an exclusive lifelong bond.^[6] This is to say, the word is used with more rarity than the terms also associated with 'romantic partner'. The term is a very versatile term, being defined differently by different individuals, as it is related to the concept of love. It commonly holds the connotation of being the strongest bond with another person,^[7] romantically, that one can achieve. The term is not used as often as other terms representing the same idea, and this is likely to lead to its perceived rarity in meaning. The definition of it ranges widely, and cannot be pinpointed. It is commonly accepted that one will feel 'complete' once they have found their soul mate, as it is partially in the perceived definition that two souls are meant to unite.

Me: 

I don't necessarily agree with the theory that it means only happiness with one person.  I believe that you can find happiness & contentment with many different people. But I do believe that there is somebody out there that is perfect for you. They complete you and fulfill you, in ways you never dreamed possible. The connection is so strong,and so organic, that everything just flows so naturally between you, it feels like you don't even have to try

There might even be different types of soul mates. I believe I have 2 actually. 

The Brat is my homosexual life partner. We have been inseparable for nearly 2 years now. We just clicked .. instantly. All our friends call us the "old married couple" ... we certainly are the ODD COUPLE.  I am sure we would not be as close if it weren't for the fact that he is gay. And NO ... do NOT call  me his FagHag .. that word is DISGUSTING .. well, both those words make me physically ill. No,  I am his Guardian Jedi. And even his mother LOVES ME! .. and more shocking still is that my parents love him! Why is this weird & why are we "the ODD couple?". Well I just turned 47 and he just turned 21 ... it's weird, even by my standards but it's us ... we are soulmates! We just are what we are. 

Me & the Brat! 

(I KNOW RIGHT ... WE ARE SOOOOOOO CUTE!) 

And the other??? .....Well he doesn't believe so it doesn't matter (even though HE SO IS!!!)  ..... 

But seriously, I would be interested to hear what others think about the theory of soul mates.
