Yes, but not always in the way you think, or want to yourself. If you believe in soul mates you also believer in a higher power, that has brought the two of you together. Much like with God, such a higher power can impact you in ways you don't always see for yourself is good for you. For example, maybe you were not ready to meet your soul mate until you are in your 40-ties. Wanting, and wishing, that you'd meet them sooner doesn't help you, because what is meant to be is meant to be. And what is meant to be, and what is best for you, isn't always what you think. Maybe you are meant to have obstacles, and maybe you are meant to take things slow, or be separated for a while.
If you trust that you are soul mates then you must also trust that things happen for a reason, and instead of fighting life you need to accept what is happening and go with the flow.

For me the term "soulmates" suggests a predetermined destiny of some sort. Let's take it a bit further, if a predetermined destiny had been planned by "the universe" (for want of a better term) surely that predetermination would have included the ways and wherefores for that predetermined destiny to come about.
Maybe 'soulmates' are meant to be together and maybe they aren't. Maybe these soulmates simply have unfinished business to work through, or have been together many times in many pasts in a variety of relationships, and this is why they seem to familiar to us.
Who can say, some people believe when we die that's it, over and done with, others believe we all float up to heaven to sit around sipping nectar and playing harps, still others believe we come back a number of times, over and over again.
All are theories only, our opinions and beliefs are our own, there is no scientific evidence to prove any of the above, or disprove.
I think you need to decide the answer to your question for yourself.

Family commitments, especally children, may prevent them from an early union, but over time the pain of separation and the feelings of anguish will surely overcome them and result in their union.
