I personally think that people who believe in soulmates also have issues.

In astrology there are many differnt aspects that would indicate a "significant other", I've noticed that if the outer planets are active to the personal in synastry then it will generally indicate something different. Most people will live life according to what they have been led to believe and that means we get some men and women that choose not to follow a deep attraction because it's easier and less painful if they keep life superficial. It's sad but common enough that many relationships are just void fillers and not meaningful, I don't think there is anything wrong in this if that's what has been chosen but I do sometimes wish things could be different.

I believe that astrology can not tell if a relationship is one sided or not. A synastry chart in itself is nothing, you have to take into consideration so many other things, like the real life situation, your natal chart, transits, progressions etc... If a "relationship" is one-sided it can mean more things, for example:
-he is not the right person for you
-your time hasn't arrived yet

I agree. I think it's not more complicated than so.

Yeah, we have lost control my friend
Here, i have posted again an interesting point of view i think:
The idea is that you have one Twin Flame and many soulmates. These can be same sex relationships or any other combination.

What is a Twin Flame?

Twin flames, also called twin souls, are literally the other half of our soul. We each have only one twin. Each twin is a complete soul, not half a soul. It is their task to become more whole, balancing their female and male sides, and ideally become enlightened, before uniting with their twin. This union is of two complete and whole beings. All other relationships through all our lives could be said to be "practice" for the twin, the ultimate relationship.

What is a Soulmate?

A soulmate is someone you are close to, and with whom you have had many shared experiences, in various kinds of relationships - siblings, parent-child, best friend, as well as romantic relationships. There is a deep love for each other, and a spiritual bond that sets them apart from the superficiality of most other people in your life. Conversations are generally deep, about personal growth and service to make the world a better place. We can have many soulmates in our lives, and they come to us to help us grow spiritually.

Meeting your Twin Flame-

Many attempts at union are unsuccessful because the individual people are not quite ready. It is more intense than any other relationship, and this intensity is at a spiritual level, not as much in the physical or even emotional. This doesn't mean that there isn't a good attraction at those levels as well, but the strongest attraction is spiritual. This is one of the distinguishing characteristics of a twin soul. Caution though, many times people mistakenly believe they have met their twin because the attraction is so intense, but the attraction is one of need or bodily desire rather than the Love of twins.

Your chance of meeting and staying with your twin depends on how evolved you are, and how much of your baggage you have cleared. The biggest reason twins don't come together, or have to separate after coming together is their individual emotional baggage. Because in the presence of your twin, there can be nothing between you, nothing blocking your closeness. This means that everything comes up for healing that you haven't previously healed. Everything!

When twins unite, both of them experience an acceleration of their spiritual growth and awakening. They get on the fast track of learning about esoteric wisdom and experiencing other states of consciousness. They usually haven't been together at all, and so their backgrounds may be different. Yet, there is a closeness and similarities of spirit that are almost uncanny, noticed in many ways, such as looking back at yourself when you look at your mate. Guidance is strong with these relationships, and usually one or both have a good channel for communication with the other. Their connection can seem telepathic, and intimacy with each other can be intensely satisfying and nurturing.
