inseparable
This term describes a bond so tight that the entities involved cannot be viewed or treated as distinct units. When applied to people, it carries a warm, affectionate connotation of loyalty and constant companionship, suggesting a psychological or emotional fusion rather than a physical attachment.
In technical or legal contexts, the word shifts toward a functional necessity. It implies that removing one component would render the entire system invalid or non-functional. This creates a sense of structural interdependence where the identity of the part is derived entirely from its relationship to the whole.
Meanings
Impossible to separate or disconnect due to a strong bond or inherent connection.
Examples

You two are absolutely inseparable, aren't you?
