I picked up the book "Messages from You Angels" by Doreen Virtue on a whim the other day. In it she channels messages from various angels. There is a section of questions and answers, one of the questions being "how do I tell if my partner is my soul mate?" The gist of the answer is that even being soul mates does not assure a person of happiness in a relationship due to various reasons (shifting interests, etc.). Plus I believe (and someone else mentioned this too) that a soul mate doesn't necessarily have to be someone of the opposite sex who is a love partner. Your best friend could be a soul mate. The rest of the message was that building trust and sharing the contents of your heart in such an environment with your partner are more important.
It sounds like you're on the right track Gene.
