In the past, when I was still naive and happy, I thought that Soulmates means when two people are destined to be together and share deep unconditional love for each other. But as I grew up, I think that Soulmates is when two people share a deep bond, but not necessarily sharing a love relationship.

But well, I'm still not very sure what's the right definition. I wonder what it really takes to consider two person Soulmates? Fated to meet/share a deep relationship (whether friendship or love)? And/or something else? Also, I'm wondering if we can have more than one Soulmate in life.

And you guys? What are your definitions of Soulmates? X3

Also, supposed there are two persons that are Soulmates, but due to life's circumstances, they only share a friendship (even if they had a crush on each other). Then either one of them or both of them met another person with whom they fell in love with and started a relationship. Can the fact that they are Soulmates that didn't have a chance to be together as lovers affect their current relationships with others?
(oh well, Astrology aside, maybe this can also be interpreted as two persons who loved each other but never became lovers, and then they got into relationships with other people - but would their feelings for each other ever affect their current relationships?)

The anti soulmate. Take everything the soulmate is, but think of the opposite in almost every respect. With all the intensity, but negative with very few positives. Someone who deeply impacts your world in a terrible way. Good idea? I know!

I am a strong believer in reincarnation

I also believe that the soul has no sex,race,ethnicity,etc.....I believe all that is part of ego identification. I believe that the soul transcends all that.

think of soul relationships as similar to a large tree with a thousand leaves on it. Those leaves that are on your twig are intimately close to you. You may even share experiences, soul experiences, among yourselves. There may be three or four or five leaves on your twig. You are also highly and closely related to the leaves on the branch next to yours. They share a common limb. They are close to you, but not as close as the leaves on your own twig. Similarly, as you extend father out along the tree, you are still related to these other leaves or souls, but not as closely as those in your immediate proximity. You are all part of one tree and one trunk. You can share experiences. You know each other. But those on your twig are the closest.
Individulas from the same tree are soul mates, while "half" souls within the same leaf are twins.
Your soul, and all the other countless souls that were ever created, are constantly trying to return to their Source to help recreate the ONE SOUL that existed in the very beginning. That yearning for oneness is in each and every one of us and that hunger can never be destroyed. That is the underlying basis for the cosmic principle behind our existence. And this incredible adventure goes way beyond the single lifetime we are now experiencing on planet Earth.
