As the title suggests, I like to share my personal view on this. Here it goes
Soulmates: Two people who are very compatible with each other in disposition, point of view, and sensitivity. Those who use this term in regard to primary relationships view it as a way of describing those who are meant for each other in a very special and unique way - almost as if they were spiritually or mystically connected.
