I am a weirdo according to some because I think “soulmates” as an idea can be VERY real. But I don’t think there’s “one soulmate” for people. I think there are SEVERAL. Dozens, possibly hundreds we’ll never meet. And I also think soulmates don’t have to be romantic at all. That friend you instantly connect with on just about every important level can be just as much of a soulmate (and as important) as some on you also connect romantically and sexually with. It’s not required… frequently it’s weird to feel that way about a soulmate. Romantic soulmates are totally a thing, but not the ONLY thing, and there’s more than one romantic soulmate too (and varying kids… I might connect with one person for life-long long, some only with a month-long passionate fling that means the world to both of us). Which I love. Think of all the possible forms of love with so SO many people on this planet. You might meet only one in your lifetime, you might meet a hundred… you might be in a place in your life to explore it, or not, and it’s perfectly okay… but having so many people to connect gives you so many chances.

Don't have to believe in a 'soul' to believe in the concept of soulmates. Just a word after all.

I generally think of it as people who truly click. My current best friend has been my best friend since 1994 or so. Bromates if you will, or something silly like that.
