What's with this?
..::All of these definitions are found on various sites across the internet::...
Soulbond: A being (usually from another dimension) who is mentally/spiritually connected to an individual in this world. A soulbond can usually communicate mentally with the soulbonder, and can sometimes “front,” or (with permission) take over the body of the soulbonder and experience this world from the eyes of the soulbonder. Soulbonds may also share energy, emotions and even memories with each other.
Soulbonder: An individual who has a strong, mental/spiritual connection with another soul (usually from another dimension).
Multiverse: The hypothesis that there are an infinite or finite number of universes, some with great differences from our own, others with lesser differences.
Tulpa: A tulpa is an autonomous entity existing within the brain of a “host”. They are distinct from the host in that they possess their own personality, opinions, and actions, which are independent of the host’s, and are conscious entities in that they possess awareness of themselves and the world. A fully-formed tulpa is, or highly resembles to an indistinguishable point, an actual other sentient, sapient being coinhabiting with the host consciousness.

Who is ShadowTheFluffhog?Shadow is AU (Alternate Universe) version of the canonical Shadow the Hedgehog from the Sonic the Hedgehog series. He's been with me for over 10 years now. There are some pictures I made of him floating around the internet as well as JackTheRadiaution (another soulbond of mine) if you ever decide to search up the name. I have a whole written up biography about him stored in various places as well.
Shadow came to me one day after I had fallen in love with the Shadow the Hedgehog game and the character himself back when I was 13 and became a fan of the Sonic series. He's helped me out of suicidal thoughts and self-harm while I was bullied back in high school. Unlike his canon counterpart, he is mostly quirky and humorous, but also extremely...cruel, evil, violent and a bunch of other things that I cannot say on this site. He's almost like a father-figure and a friend of mine. We consider ourselves to be engaged with one another as we initially plan on getting married when I die assuming based on my belief of non-traditional reincarnation that I will be able to come to his planet once I die.

Soulbonds are like tulpas but are believed to already exist and living on other planets and not created through the mind as some people tend to assume.
Soulbonding is similar to Tulpamancy and many methods used in tulpamancy are also used in soulbonding. Soulbonders like myself typically believe in the concept of the multiverse, where there are infinite planets, universes thus the likelihood of the supernatural and things like fictional characters exist. Most communicate with their 'bonds. These communications typically are performed via telepathy. We bond with these entities and treat them like living breathing individuals. Everyone has different views and experience when it comes to soulbonds and soulbonding. But for me, my soulbonds are like friends and family. They are part of my everyday life. They help me cook, clean, watch movies with me, play games, chat like with any other person. The only difference is that they are not physically here and tend to not be a human. Sort of like having an online friend though they have some advantages including being able to talk to you telepathically, touch you through non-physical means as other such phenomena. This is how I can try to simplify it:
I am a person who believes that fictional characters exist. They live on other planets and I can talk to them through my mind. They are like aliens in a way. I can also see them sometimes and sometimes I can hear their voices as clear as day in my head. It's like a child's dream come true. Being able to communicate with my favorite characters from cartoons, anime and video games. They are real! Even more real than how they are portrayed on television. They have feelings, families, homes just like you and I.____________________________________________________________
How Society Views This...Soulbonding and Tulpamancy are not widely accepted in society. It usually leaves people calling those who practice it as delusional, schizophrenic and insane. Some even think it's damaging when someone goes that "extreme" of believing the existence of fictional characters. But most soulbonders benefit a lot of from having that close connection with an otherworldly being. There are communities just for soulbonders and tulpamancers (....although....my experience with those were horrible...)
____________________________________________________________
It's really too complex of a topic to explain in one sitting and I don't know if what I just said made any sense. I'd suggest doing some online research on soulbonding, soulbonds, soulbonders and even tulpas and tulpamancy if you're interested. Though most people who do have explanations of these things explain it in a way which is difficult enough for anyone to completely understand....
