bound & bond
These two words really confuse me a lot.! I notice that when people want to say that we are meant to be with each other, they would say we are bond to be together, how about bound?

No, they don't. You need to listen much more attentively to what people are actually saying.
People are bonded together.
They are bound together.
bond bonded bonded
bind bound bound
Now you can check the dictionary to find the small difference.

to me it is pretty simple: bound= is in reference to a direction i.e. we are bound to get there or as already stated, on a northbound aircraft etc. Bond= is related to a connection between two or more items i.e. this team has bonded closely together or they share an emotional bond
